In 2013, MHBC presented Council with a Heritage Conservation District (HCD) Study and Implementation Plan for the Village of Port Stanley.

Although Council did not pursue an HCD designation, the information and recommendations in provide an excellent resource for Council and staff to refer to when reviewing and assessing development applications.

Council adopted portions of the report that could serve as design guidelines for implementation of Official Plan policies on Community Design.  These sections include:

  • 4.4 - Alterations to Heritage Properties
  • 4.5 - Alterations to Non-Heritage Properties
  • 4.6 - Signage on Commercial Structures
  • 4.7 - New building Construction
  • 4.10 - Landscape Conservation and Design Guidelines for the Private Realm; and
  • 4.11 - Landscape Conservation and Design Guidelines for the Public Realm
