REPORT RECOMMENDATION

 

That the Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee recommend that Planning and Environment Committee recommend to Council that heritage plaques be installed in 2007 on eight designated heritage buildings and in one Heritage Conservation District as listed in Document 1.

 

RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT

 

Que le Comité consultatif sur la conservation de l'architecture locale recommande au Comité de l'urbanisme et de l'environnement de recommander à son tour au Conseil municipal l'installation, en 2007, de plaques du patrimoine sur huit édifices et dans un district de conservation du patrimoine désignés, comme l'indique le document 1.

 

 


LOCAL ARCHITECTURAL CONSERVATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE (LACAC)

 

The LACAC unanimously approved the report recommendation at its meeting of 9 Nov 06.

 

 

BACKGROUND

 

The Heritage Plaque Program is carried out in accordance with Section 2.5.5, 15 of the Official Plan, which contains policies regarding heritage plaques:

 

"... the City will support its objective to conserve heritage resources and to promote the stewardship of those resources by:

 

b.         Commemorating cultural heritage resources with heritage plaques, awards and other forms of interpretation;".

 

The design of the heritage plaque was approved by City Council on September 8, 2004.  A presentation will be made to the owners of properties receiving heritage designation plaques on Heritage Day, February 19, 2007.

 

 

ANALYSIS

 

The commemoration of eight buildings and one heritage conservation district designated under the Ontario Heritage Act will fulfill the above policies.  

 

 

CONSULTATION

 

In 2003, staff wrote to each owner of property designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act within the City in order to identify which property owners wanted a plaque. A list of these owners was compiled and put in order to determine which designated properties would receive plaques in future years.

 

The owners of the properties listed in Document 1 were contacted by letter or approached the City individually during the summer of 2006 and have confirmed they would like to receive a plaque in 2007.

 

 

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS

 

The total plaque cost is approximately $10,000 and will be funded within the 2007 Operating Budget of the Planning and Growth Management Department, Planning and Infrastructure Approvals Branch, subject to Council's approval of the 2007 Operating budget.
