The
Glenora Heritage Character Area Rezoning would not have prevented property owners from demolishing historical buildings. Honestly, the City does not have the authority (without paying large sums of money) from preventing the demolition historic resources. If people are serious about preserving our heritage assets, then owners of those buildings should designate them as Municipal Historic Resources.
The fact that the VAST majority of houses in Glenora listed on the Inventory of HIstoric Resources are not formally designated and protected from demolition is very telling... Anyone in that neighbourhood that is complaining about the cancellation of this project who has an Inventoried property that isn't designated os being hypocritical.
