CDRC registration a vital service BY WES KELLER At a time when Shelburne and area are experiencing an unprece- dented infl ux of new residents, Kim Fraser over at Centre Dufferin Recreation Complex (CDRC) would appear to be providing a vitally needed service by offering a central registration service twice yearly for community groups. “Community Information & Registration Days gives the commu- nity a chance to learn about local clubs, classes and programs they can participate in. “This day is an opportunity for all groups who provide leisure and recreational activities including sports, clubs, social groups, craft groups, community services, businesses and organizations to build awareness as well as register people for their programs,” CDRC ex- plains on its website. Ms. Fraser said in an interview that people sometimes refer to the registration days as something of an activities fair. The “fair,” to be held on Sept. 5 and then again in February, usually includes registra- tions for minor sports such as hockey, fi gure skating and soccer in season but also for such as dance lessons and fi tness classes and for Guides, Scouts and Cubs. “Information will be available for local clubs, teams, social groups, and organizations offering adult and youth activities and services in your community,” Ms. Fraser said in an email. You can obtain more information or an application form for a reg- istration table by contacting Ms. Fraser at 519-925-2400 or kfraser@ townofshelburne.on.ca There’s also a fax number: 519-925-2402.

  • Municipal Register of Cultural Heritage Resources Designated Under the Ontario Heritage Act
    Municipal Register of Cultural Heritage Resources Designated Under the Ontario Heritage Act Designated Properties Last Updated: 2021 1 Background In Ontario, the conservation of cultural heritage resources is considered a matter of public interest. Significant heritage resources must be conserved. The Ontario Heritage Act gives municipalities and the provincial government powers to preserve the heritage of Ontario. The primary focus of the Act is the protection of heritage buildings, cultural landscapes and archaeological sites. The Ontario Heritage Act enables municipalities to designate such properties if they hold “cultural heritage value or interest”. Municipal heritage designations are enacted by City Council through the passing of a by-law. Once a property is designated, it gains public recognition as well as a measure of protection from demolition or unsympathetic alteration. Designation helps guide future change to the property so that the cultural heritage value of the property can be maintained. There are two types of designation under the Ontario Heritage Act: designation of individual properties (known as Part IV designation), and designation of unique and important streetscapes, areas or "heritage conservation districts" (known as Part V designation). Any real property that has cultural heritage value or interest can be designated, including houses, barns, factories, cemeteries, parks, bridges, trees, gardens, hedgerows, fences, monuments, churches, woodlots, historic sites and the list goes on. Heritage designation is based on provincially regulated criteria (Ontario Heritage Act, O. Reg. 9/06), which includes design or physical value, historical or associative value, and/or contextual value. Heritage designation can be based on meeting one or more of these three broad criteria.

  • Committee of Council
    DM-2.-I CGivifviiTTEE Of COUNCIL DATE: FeferuoAj l4-lto,2ol/ Ms. Dubenofsky, By way of this email I would like to request, on behalf of the Chinguacousy Concert Band (Inc.), an operational funding grant from the City of Brampton. I am certain you are already familiar with our organization and in particular our two groups, the Chinguacousy Swing Orchestra and of course the Chinguacousy Concert Band. We have worked diligently over the past few years to meet the recently established criteria applied to other groups to be eligible for funding. You can see outlined on the attached fact sheet, and below, that the organization has not only proven successful in festivals and competitions near and far, but also has a rich and far reaching heritage; the origins of the band dating back to 1872. We respectfully request for the 2011 budget an operational funding grant from the City in the amount of $10,000.00 primarily to be used to cover professional development for our musical director, print music purchases, and equipment maintenance to ensure our musical instruments and library are available for future generations of Bramptonians to enjoy. This is not an unusual or unprecedented request. In the 1970's and 80's; before the City's funding strategy changed, we received adequate amounts for operation. As an example from our archives; Donald Gordon approved a similar operational grant for $7,000.00 in 1978. Were we to apply an inflationary rate to this amount to bring it to present day, it would equal over $22,000,001 Fortunately over our years we have learned to remain budget conscious and our operational funding requirements have been trimmed to the minimum.
