20220719 15133700 1.0 TRUE Heritage Designation The Heritage Designation is a list of properties, buildings and sites that are protected by bylaw. Once a property has been designated, future physical alterations to the property require the approval of the council and the issuance of a permit, unless specifically indicated in the bylaw. Heritage designation of a property differs from heritage register listing or commemoration (such as through a plaque), as designation provides legal protection to the heritage property, while the other two methods of acknowledging historic significance do not.
