Update on plan of action for the awards ceremony on September 18.

The awards ceremony will take place on September 18th beginning at 12pm. Judges are: S. Peeken, D. Illman, G. Scott.

Director Marshall confirmed there would be funds available for a reception. The budget for the committee is now included in the Arts, Culture and Heritage budget. Current expenses are: $200 (approximately) for plaques, $250 for refreshments. The committee is anticipating around 35 attendees for the ceremony. 

There could potentially be presentation of 1 plaque to the owner 3 Kent Street. D. Soule to contact other owners to see if they want their plaques presented to them in public at the awards ceremony or not.

 Committee would like to consider de-designating the pavilion at 72 Francis Street in Fenelon Falls as there is not much of the original gazebo left but cannot find too much information regarding it. Committee members pointed out that the address on the by-law for this gazebo may be incorrect since there is another historically note-worthy gazebo in Fenelon Falls. There is a little white gazebo with a handmade plaque on it that members feel is the correct gazebo to be designated.  No changes are to be made to 72 Francis Street until more information is found.

An error was made at time of amalgamation that ended up incorrectly listing the General Store at 973 Eldon Road in Oakwood.  It was recently discovered that it is the antique store across the street from it located at 977 Eldon Road that is the designated building. The property owners will be notified by staff.
