BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: The Eber Millson House, R.R. #1, Enniskillen, owned by Mr. Millson, was designated as a heritage property in January 1990. The owners have identified work at a cost of $9,300.00 required to be done to the exterior surface of the structure and have filed an application for a grant of $3,000 .00 to assist in offsetting the costs associated with the project. Grants are available to owners of designated properties under the Ministry of Culture and Communications "Designated Property Grant Program" to cover 50 percent of the cost of the work, to a maximum of #3,000. 00 per year. The Ministry has indicated that funds are available and it is appropriate that this application, which meets the programs grant criteria, be processed at this Report CD-14-93 Page 2 July 19, 1993 For Committee's information, I advise that funding for the program requires that the Municipality pay the grant portion (first having determined that the works have been properly completed) and then make application to the Heritage Branch of the Ministry of Culture and Communications for reimbursement. The Town can obtain full recovery plus 10 percent to cover the administrative cost. The Treasurer has indicated that funds pertaining to designated property grants would be taken from the Miscellaneous Clearing Account 1003-00015-0000 . Once the work has been completed and inspected by L.A.C.A.C. , a subsequent report will be forwarded to the Committee authorizing payment of the grant.
