The next step for consideration is to have a property title search company do some research at the Land Title Office,but that may result in paying for information that doesn’t get us any closer to confirming the original owner of the house. Lisa suggested that Donald Luxton &Associates,Heritage Consultants,could be hired to research all potential information sources,and prepare a “Statement of Significance”for the site.The result would be a research document,that identifies the aspects of heritage value for this site and that could be added to the formal listing of heritage resources on the Maple Ridge Heritage Register. Lisa Zosiak advised that the recently updated Heritage Awards nomination form, presented and briefly discussed at the April meeting,now requires that nominations for buildings must be on the Maple Ridge Heritage Inventory or Register list. Lisa Zosiak advised that properties on the Heritage Inventory and Register are properties that the community and Council have identified as having historical value, but are not protected from alterations or demolition. R11-022 It was moved and seconded That staff be directed to contact Don Luxton to complete a proposal to pursue no less than one but no more than three Statement s of Significance and that this will include the Somme ’s House, with appropriate time lines included.
