stouffville historical societys presentation of a plan that would see certain buildings in the town officially designated for preservation guests david and janet fayle of richmond hill explained to those in attendance at the societys meeting at summitview public school how groups can be set up within a town to advise and assist the towns council as to what buildings should be includ ed in such a designation the groups called local ar chitectural conservation- ad visory committees already exist in 190 municipalities across on tario and whitchurchstouffville is the only municipality within york region without a commit tee such as lacac buildings designated would be given special status and would be protected from demolition due to their being historically and ar chitecturally significant restric tions would then be be placed on the owners of such buildings mr fayle stated but there would be advantages as well mr fayle is a member of the richmond hill lacac certain grants are available through the ontario heritage act for restoration of such buildings as well as the fact there is a prestige factor that goes with having a building designated which can add to the value of the property he said while mr fayle stressed that lacacs serve only to advise and assist town councils several in attendance expressed concern that they would lose control over their buildings we already have the federal provincial and municipal authorities telling us what we can and cant do with our houses now im afraid this would result in one more authority over us argued waller austin who owns a century house on commerical lane his fears were echoed by nick tatone candidate for ward three in the upcoming municipal election the gentleman austin raises some good points in his argument he said mayor fran sainsbury voiced her concern that buildings could be surrounded by new industry but still required to be maintain ed as historical structures an old house isnt going to have much historical value if it is sur rounded by modern business structures she said adding that sometimes it is advisable to relocate an old building despite the fact that it is difficult to ob tain grant money for a historical structure once it has been moved from its original site historical society chairman ruth burkholder felt that setting up of a lacac would be a positive step for the town i think we should have a lacac in whitchurchstouffville there are buildings worth preserving while mrs burkholder admit ted there were no buildings cur rently in danger of being demolished that should be preserved she felt that might change with future development she stressed the education func tion of a lacac a lacac pro vides the historical information to council so they will know which buildings should be
