Overview

A five-page guide published by the Town of Oakville for its heritage permit. Its question headings cover what a heritage permit is, when one is and is not needed, the criteria used to judge proposed work, the submission items (application form, drawings, photographs and, in some cases, a heritage impact assessment), and the approval process by staff or by Council on the Heritage Oakville Advisory Committee's recommendation, with numbered steps and contacts. It accompanies the Heritage Permit Application Form.
