Pursuant to his recent Notice of Motion, Alderman Traboulay has asked me to
bring to the Council's attention the following provisions of Sub-sections (4),
(5), and (6) of Section 714A of the Municipal Act: ;

(4) The Council may, by by-law adopted by an affirrnative vote of at
least two-thirds of all the members thereof, establish a Heritage Advisory
Committee, whose members shall serve without remuneration and who
shall advise the Council on those matters coming within the scope of this
section as may from time to time be referred to the Heritage Advisory
Committee by the Council and, in particular, may make recommendations
to Council respecting designation of heritage buildings, structures, and
lands and the demolition, preservation, alteration, or renovation of those
buildings, structures, and lands,

(5) In the by-law establishing the Heritage Advisory Committee there
shall be set out

(a) the composition of the Heritage Advisory Committee and the
manner in which Council shall appoint the members; and
' (b) the procedures governing the Heritage Advisory Committee.

(6) The Council shall include in its.annual budget such sums as may

be necessary to defray the expenses of the Heritage Advisory Committee.

It is our understanding that Alderman Traboulay wishes to propose the following
resolution:

"That the City Clerk, in cooperation with the Building and Protection Committee,
be instructed to prepare the necessary By-law in order that a Heritage Advisory
Committee may be established;

AND THAT applications for membership on the Committee be hereby invited from the
general public."
