Appeals of heritage designation by-laws dismissed; properties met criteria for cultural heritage value.
The appellants appealed the municipality's by-laws designating their properties as having cultural heritage value under the Ontario Heritage Act.
The Tribunal heard expert heritage planning evidence from the municipality demonstrating that the properties were representative examples of early twentieth-century residential styles and maintained the historic residential character of the streetscape.
The Tribunal found that the properties met the prescribed criteria for designation and dismissed the appeals, leaving the designating by-laws in full force and effect.
