Heritage Conservation Policies — Official Plan Amendment 207

Address: City-wide
Applicant: Corporation of the City of Windsor
File No: OPA 207 (OPA/7407)

This amendment updates the Official Plan’s heritage conservation framework to reflect current provincial legislation, contemporary heritage planning standards, the 2024 Provincial Planning Statement, and updated terminology under the Ontario Heritage Act. It also responds to the Walkerville Heritage Conservation District Study by updating relevant policies and revising Schedule G: Civic Image to identify the Walkerville Heritage Conservation District Areas. Most of the proposed policy changes are located in Chapter 9: Heritage Conservation, with related amendments to chapters 1, 3, 6, 8, 10, and 11. Together, these changes strengthen the City’s ability to conserve cultural heritage resources, support implementation of the Walkerville Heritage Conservation District, and maintain consistency with current legislative and policy requirements.
