 The Heritage Policy Review is being undertaken as part of the Town of Richmond Hill’s new Official Plan process. Based on the People Plan consultation process, ten guiding principles have been established to provide a basis and rationale for developing the Town’s land use policies, including heritage policies. One of the new Official Plan guiding principles will be to recognize and enhance the inherent and unique aspects of Richmond Hill and to create focal points, gateways, experiences and landmarks. Developing policies and programs that conserve archaeological and above ground cultural heritage resources in the Town of Richmond Hill is an integral component of the Official Plan Review.
This discussion paper summarizes the Town of Richmond Hill’s current policy approach to heritage conservation and identifies accompanying strengths and weaknesses. Such an analysis presents an opportunity to identify the program areas, tools, and policy provisions that warrant further research and possible inclusion into the Town’s operating policy framework.
The Town is interested in your feedback on the future of heritage in Richmond Hill.
