Heritage Conservation District Plan Update

We're updating the Heritage Conservation District (HCD) Plan for Bayfield Main Street North, Clan Gregor Square and Elgin Place. This heritage conservation district was established in 1982 and is one of the first heritage conservation districts in the province. A consultant team led by GSP Group in collaboration with ERA Architects Inc was engaged. They will work closely with the Municipal Heritage Advisory Committee until completion in 2024.

The process will include an assessment of the District boundary, the development of policies and guidelines based on the findings of the HCD Study, public input, and the existing and future land-use planning context and associated guidelines and policies.

How do I follow the process?

You may follow this process by visiting this page on a regular basis (i.e., once per month).

You may also watch the monthly meetings of the Heritage Advisory Committee. These meetings are electronic and open to the public. More information about meetings can be found in our Heritage Advisory Committee page.

How do I participate?

Residents can expect a consultative process with digital and in-person options for input. Please visit the project page for more information and to learn about upcoming events.
