The Municipal Heritage Committee deferred a decision on whether to approve the changes to Council\u2019s December 20 meeting.<\/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>Of the changes, Teri Souter, the Town\u2019s Manager of Arts, Culture and Heritage, said that staff didn\u2019t know windows were being replaced until they were called by media and were told there were concerns from residents. The windows have been replaced with a heritage-style, wood window that matches the profile of what was on the home previously. The removed coloured glass panels are to be rehung in their previous position but on the interior of the new windows. As for the veneer, it was on a plan that had been previously approved but the presence of the veneer wasn\u2019t noticed by staff.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we were to ask to have the house returned to a previous state, which we have a right to do, this is exactly the style of window we would be asking for,&#8221; said Souter. &#8220;The fact that the (coloured) glass is going to be put back in will help to preserve it, behind a storm (window). It\u2019s an acceptable practice, it\u2019s not ideal but we believe it is equitable in this situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When questioned by councillors on both the colour of the new windows \u2013 which have black trim instead of the previous white \u2013 and whether all of the home&#8217;s coloured windows have been retained by the owner of the Hart House, Souter said that because paint colour is easily changeable, a heritage permit application isn\u2019t required, and that staff have not inventoried the coloured glass windows but have been assured by the owner that all are intact. The status of the coloured glass that was over the front door\u2019s transom \u2013 with its signature heart \u2013 is unknown.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the stone veneer, Chief Building Official for the Town, Chris Nagy, added that, \u201cThrough the bylaw on the actual building, it does note that stone is one of the (acceptable) fa\u00e7ades\u2026although not previously installed in that location it does relay back to the bylaw.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"modern-quote full\"><p>In general terms, the intent of the Heritage Act is to work collaboratively with owners to protect heritage. Nothing lasts forever, every material will disintegrate over time. The idea is to replace it with similar materials where possible\u2026so that people can appreciate and understand their heritage over time. The idea here is the window profile and trims will be same as what you see over the years in previous photos. (It\u2019s a) question to balance what\u2019s the benefit, what\u2019s the look, what\u2019s the overall sustainability and longevity of such an undertaking.<br \/>\n<cite>Teri Souter, Manager of Arts, Culture and Heritage for the Town of Huntsville<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_24896\" style=\"width: 1414px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24896\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24896\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/12\/Hart-House-through-the-years.jpg\" alt=\"Hart House through the years\" width=\"1404\" height=\"352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/12\/Hart-House-through-the-years-300x75.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/12\/Hart-House-through-the-years-768x193.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/12\/Hart-House-through-the-years-1024x257.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/12\/Hart-House-through-the-years.jpg 1404w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1404px) 100vw, 1404px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-24896\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hart House through the years (from left) in 1894, with the hospital wing which was built in 1901, in 1976 and in 2012<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Several councillors acknowledged the difficult task of ensuring heritage is maintained while allowing private property owners to use their properties.<\/p>\n<p>Councillor Det Schumacher said, \u201cI\u2019m totally in favour of the maintenance of a project like this but I\u2019m hoping we don\u2019t put roadblocks in the way of an individual that owns the premises. Granted, we\u2019d like to see it maintained as it should be, but let\u2019s take a different scenario. (If the town owned it), the taxpayer would be on hook for major dollars to maintain something like that. Look at the train station. Let\u2019s work with an individual that\u2019s willing to reside in a heritage place and maintain it. Let\u2019s be sensitive to the fact that if the town had to do it on taxpayers\u2019 dollars it would be a whole different scenario.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Councillor Jason Fitzgerald, who chairs the Municipal Heritage Committee, added, \u201cIt\u2019s a fine line we walk in trying to maintain the heritage and allowing the person to enjoy their property\u2026 This property is very expensive and quite a large amount of investment is still required. If we work amicably with these people and don\u2019t get involved in expensive litigation, which we all know where that leads, I think the goals can be met of the heritage committee.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_22750\" style=\"width: 1212px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22750\" class=\"size-full wp-image-22750\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/11\/HarthouseA.jpg\" alt=\"Hart House\" width=\"1202\" height=\"739\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/11\/HarthouseA-630x387.jpg 630w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/11\/HarthouseA.jpg 1202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1202px) 100vw, 1202px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-22750\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Hart House as it looks today (November 2016)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>There has been much discussion about the Hart House on social media channels and Mayor Scott Aitchison criticized some of the comments while defending staff actions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo Teri and Chris, thank you for your work on this and your efforts.
