The purpose of the program is to identify properties of heritage significance within the Township and to recognize and celebrate the importance to the community through the display of shingle plaques on the outside of the buildings. This serves to provide the public with more awareness of architectural, historic and cultural features within the Township. The shingle plaques are a source of pride to many property owners. They give distinctive character to a neighbourhood, and provide residents and visitors an opportunity to learn about community’s past. The Shingle Plaque shall identify: The most significant owner or person associated with the building, or original owner; The occupation of the significant owner or person; The year of construction of the building (estimated if exact date cannot be determined); Heritage King Eligibility: All properties that are listed on the Township’s Heritage Register under Section 27 of the Ontario Heritage Act are eligible for the Shingle Plaque Program. Where a shingle plaque has previously been issued a building will remain eligible for replacement shingle plaques at the discretion of the Heritage Advisory Committee, at the expense of the property owner. General: There is no cost to a property owner for the original shingle plaque issued. Property owners are responsible for the costs associated with replacement shingle plaques. Shingle plaques remain the property of the Township of King, and may be revoked if the property no longer reflects its heritage significance. Where there are multiple buildings on a property multiple shingle plaques may be provided at the Township’s discretion. Property owners are asked to contact the Heritage Advisory Committee when the shingle plaque shows excessive wear or if they wish the shingle plaque removed. Where a property owner wishes to dispute the accuracy of the information on the shingle plaque, they are required to provide documentation to substantiate the claim to the satisfaction of the Heritage Advisory Committee. The costs associated with the updating or replacement of an inaccurate shingle plaque will be the responsibility of the Township. Shingle plaques are to remain in a visible location, as agreed upon by the Township and property owner, and installed by the Township Department of Parks, Recreation and Culture.

EVALUATION OF HERITAGE VALUE The dwelling located at 140 Fairfield Drive has been modified a number of times over the years. The original clapboard siding has been replaced by vertical siding and all the windows have been replaced. The front gable dormer was previously styled as a hipped dormer, the entrance surround is not original, and there has been a 1.5-storey rear addition. Due to the cumulative effect of these alterations staff are not satisfied that this property meets the criteria under Ontario Regulation 9/06 for determining cultural heritage value. Therefore, staff recommend that this property not be considered for inclusion onto the Township’s Heritage Register and that it be removed from the Built Heritage Inventory.
