Heritage Wilmot and Castle Kilbride Advisory Committee Advisory Committee Meeting

The committee deliberated on two primary agenda items. The first was a proposal advocating for a 'Heritage Housing Helping Grant,' seeking provincial funding to encourage the adaptive reuse of designated heritage properties for new housing construction. The second item involved a redevelopment proposal for the former Felt Boot Factory at 166 Peele Street in New Hamburg, which entails preserving the historic street-facing portion of the building while adding a new mixed-use component. The committee voted to endorse both initiatives.
