Brisbane City Council has commissioned auditor reports on the status of the heritage-listed School of Arts building on Ann street ahead of restoration.
The building was closed to the public several years ago due to public safety concerns but is to be restored after the council pledged last year to begin the refurbishment.
Last year’s budget allocated almost $9 million for the refurbishment over three years, with council to go out to tender for appropriate contractors to begin the restoration work in the future.
