Overview

Brampton's terms of reference for a heritage impact assessment (HIA) — the study identifying heritage resources in an area proposed for development, evaluating their significance and recommending conservation or mitigation. The city links it as a heritage impact study and structural restoration plan; the document prints the heritage impact assessment title. It covers listed and designated properties and adjacent lands, the Ontario Regulation 9/06 criteria summary table, impact categories from shadow and isolation to grade change, and mitigation running through setbacks, relocation, ruinification and symbolic conservation.
