D. Goodwin was unable to attend the meeting so E. Turner provided an overview of the successful art piece for the new public art installation in downtown Lindsay. J. Hartman was on the selection jury and let the Committee know that the piece was very well received by the jury and would begin installation soon. A. Adare asked if the piece had 3D elements and would have movement and J. Hartman confirmed that it did. A. Hart asked if there was a specific meaning behind the piece and E. Turner said that D. Goodwin was better placed to discuss the meaning of the piece in more detail and would be asked to the November meeting for additional information for the Committee.

Alteration Application - 60 Bond Street West, Lindsay

E. Turner provided an overview of the proposed work at 60 Bond Street West which included the replacement of eavestroughing and repainting of the historic soffits, fascia and shutters. This work typically would not require a heritage permit but the property owners are applying for Million Dollar Makeover funding which requires them to also apply for and receive a heritage permit. The Committee agreed that the work had a positive impact on the property. J. Hartman asked for clarification around the property's by-law since it had been updated in 2018 and E. Turner confirmed that the older by-law had been repealed and replaced in 2018 to bring it into alignment with current standards for by-laws under the Ontario Heritage Act.
