Municipal Heritage Register

The City’s Municipal Heritage Register is the official record of cultural heritage properties that have been identified as being important to the community, consisting of:

• Properties designated under Parts IV and V of the Ontario Heritage Act
• Non-designated properties identified by Council as being of cultural heritage value or interest

Non-designated properties are added to the Register to:

• Promote knowledge of a community’s cultural heritage
• Provide easily accessible information for planners, property owners, developers, the tourism industry and the general public
• Help prioritize future designations
• Provide interim protection from demolition
• 60-day notice of intent to demolish or remove a building or structure on property that is included on the Municipal Register
