She told Committee that in order to proceed with the intended closure of the cemetery and the severance of the remaining lands containing the building, which would in turn be sold to the group for a dollar, an archaeological assessment would be required to ensure there are no unmarked graves in other parts of the property. The cost of that assessment would have to be borne by the municipality at an estimated cost between $7,555 and $18,930 plus HST, depending on the extent of the assessment required. If excavation is required, the price would be at the higher end of the quote, but MacDonald said she is hopeful that will not be necessary.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"modern-quote full\"><p>We\u2019re going to work to keep those costs as minimal as possible.<cite>Manager of Parks and Cemeteries Colleen MacDonald<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>MacDonald said the hope is that by providing the consultant with background historical information, which the group has copious amounts of, it will help bring the cost down.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong> <broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>The land and 127-year-old church is currently owned by the Anglican Diocese of Algoma, which is willing to divest itself of the property provided it does not incur related expenses in the process. The Town has hired a lawyer in order to finalize the legal documentation required to transfer the lands minus the cemetery. Legal costs are expected to run between $2,500 and $3,000, which will come out of a $60,000 corporate legal budget set aside for 2016, according to Town CAO\/Clerk Denise Corry. \u201cI don\u2019t anticipate we\u2019re going to be spending excessive amounts this year so we certainly will be okay with charging it to that budget,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plans for the area will require numerous fundraisers and community support<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The board and friends of Newholm Community Heritage Centre, which is what the group is calling itself, is hoping to convert the property into a community hub and plans to raise funds in order to build a new foundation for the building. It is hoping to create a skating rink on the property and a place to display art, host a market day with artisans and vendors, as well as other community events such as a sports court in the summer. Their work will begin in earnest once the property has been deeded to them, John Rivi\u00e8re-Anderson, board member and long-time proponent of the project, told Doppler.<\/p>\n<p>The group also conducted a land survey of the property at its own expense, noted MacDonald, adding that the group has already expended a great deal of resources on the project.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11585\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/02\/Newholm-plan.jpg\" alt=\"Newholm site plan\" width=\"1404\" height=\"936\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/02\/Newholm-plan-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/02\/Newholm-plan-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/02\/Newholm-plan-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/02\/Newholm-plan.jpg 1404w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1404px) 100vw, 1404px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe friends of Newholm Holy Trinity are a very dedicated group of volunteers and they\u2019ve got plans in place to refurbish the building and use it as a community hub,\u201d  said MacDonald. \u201cI know that this will be the right end-use for the building, for their community, and their local group.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was also noted that the owner of the property is no longer maintaining it and the Town has taken over monitoring of the property and mowing the grassed area. Once the property is sold to the community group, they would be taking over the maintenance of the building and lands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Committee unanimously approves expenditure<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although Councillors like Karin Terziano and Bob Stone initially expressed some concern with the cost in unbudgeted funds that will have to be expended by the Town to support the project, in the end, Committee gave the project its unanimous stamp of approval.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know this group has put in thousands of hours in community time in making it a community hub right now,\u201d said Councillor for the area, Dan Armour, adding that he is 100 per cent in favour of the project.<\/p>\n<p>Rivi\u00e8re-Anderson, who was present at the meeting, said the project is in tune with the protection of heritage and cultural values in the community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is the last standing in situ pioneer building between Huntsville and Baysville.
