Area Character Statement in Development Control Planning Case Study: Iskandar Malaysia Area Character Statement (IMACS)

Posted on Updated on

27 March - Area Character Statement in Development Control Planning

ABOUT THE SPEAKERS

Nazri Noordin is the Managing Director of Iktisas Planners Sdn Bhd, with over 30 years of experience specializing in the fields of urban planning, urban design and conservation planning, and environmental consultancy. He graduated with a Dip. TRP (ITM, 1983), B.URP and M.URP (both from Illinois, 1986 and 1988 respectively). He is the Immediate Past President of the Malaysian Institute of Planners (2013-2017) and most recently, he led the team which won the 2018 MIP Award for Planning Excellence (Category: Heritage & Conservation) for the Iskandar Malaysia Area Character Statement (IMACS).

ABOUT THE LECTURE

TPr Nazri will outline the approach used in the Area Character Statement and how the IMACS study sought to define the character of the place by identifying the history, nature and culture which shaped southern Johor. This approach expands on the traditional approach of Development Control Planning which focuses on applying generic physical planning controls to one which integrates the character and heritage of the place with spatial and development planning.

By Ar. Dr. Helena Aman Hashim

Helena Hashim is a Senior Lecturer in Architecture at the Faculty of the Built Environment, University Malaya. A practicing architect with almost 30 years experience, she is a Registered Conservator with Jabatan Warisan Negara. Since the early 2000s, Helena has been involved in several conservation and restoration projects including on the award-winning Stadium Merdeka and most recently, the highly-acclaimed Masjid Diraja Sultan Suleiman, Klang.

This session will closely examine the criteria for listing of properties on the Daftar Warisan as found in Section 67 (2) of the National Heritage Act (2005). Together, we will critically weigh how the different criteria have been applied to buildings which are gazetted as Warisan Kebangsaan and also appraise how the application of these criteria hold up against that from other countries.
