Development is essential if the city is to continue to thrive, but some of that
development will inevitably affect archaeological remains. Where it is believed
that a development is likely to have a significant effect on important
archaeological remains,
the City Archaeologist will work with the developer to
reconcile the need for development with the desirability of preserving the
information contained with those remains. This may entail modifying the proposal
to minimize the impact on any remains and/or ensuring that remains that are
affected are recorded before they are destroyed.
