    Heritage conservation

    Council received a staff update around revised Heritage Conservation Area guidelines to follow both modern heritage management practices and meet new 2023 housing legislation. The draft includes features like a Neighbourhood Statement, revised goals, identified precincts, and tree canopy guidelines. These changes aim to preserve heritage while allowing small multi-unit homes and low-rise apartments in the area.
