Downtown Port Perry Heritage Conservation District Study and Approved Plan
Contact Us
In 2010, Council approved the Downtown Port Perry Heritage Conservation District Plan. The Plan includes introducing a Heritage Conservation District (HCD) in the Downtown Port Perry area.
Heritage Conservation District
The HCD includes buildings with cultural and historical significance related to Scugog's heritage. The Downtown Port Perry Heritage Conservation District Plan also introduces a HDC designation by-law that among other things requires property owners to obtain a Heritage Permit from the Township to complete any of the following work to structures in the HCD:
- External alterations and additions
- New construction
- Building demolition
- Signs
Heritage Permit Sub-Committee
The Heritage Permit Sub-Committee, a sub-committee of the Heritage and Museum Advisory Committee, approves these permits, based on the guidelines set out in the Downtown Port Perry Heritage Conservation District Plan.
