Enquiries Announcements Adjournment Page 5 of 124 Page 6 of 124 CITY OF ORILLIA TO: Council Committee- June 17, 2013 FROM: Municipal Heritage Committee DATE: June4, 2013 SUBJECT: Heritage Grant Program Proposal Recommendation THAT the Municipal Heritage Committee recommends to Council that staff of the Development Services Department be directed to develop a Designated Heritage Property Grant Program for the consideration of Budget Committee as part of the 2014 budget process. Background The Municipal Heritage Committee in recent months has initiated discussion and research on how to provide an incentive for owners of designated heritage properties in the residential/institutional tax class to undertake maintenance of the heritage features of their property. At the April 2, 2013 meeting, the Chief Financial Officer provided the legislative background from both the Municipal Act and the Ontario Heritage Act to outline the opportunities whereby a municipality may provide for financial incentives. Analysis While an opportunity exists to create a tax break for owners of designated properties under the Municipal Act, the Committee agreed that this strategy would not insure that the annual savings to the property owner would be spent on the upkeep of the heritage features of the properties. Grant opportunities, however, are possible as outlined by Section 39 of the Ontario Heritage Act which reads: Grants and loans 39. (1) The council of a municipality may pass by-laws providing for the making of a grant or loan to the owner of a property designated under this Part for the purpose of paying for the whole or any part of the cost of alteration of such designated property on such terms and conditions as the council may prescribe.
