Appeal to repeal heritage designation dismissed due to lack of sworn evidence demonstrating loss of heritage value.
The appellant sought to repeal the heritage designation of a property damaged by fire.
The municipality failed to appear at the hearing.
The appellant, acting self-represented, failed to provide sworn evidence or expert reports in affidavit form as required by the Tribunal's Rules of Practice and Procedure.
Without evidence demonstrating that the fire destroyed the property's cultural heritage value or interest, the Tribunal presumed the property retained its heritage value and dismissed the appeal.
