Continued . . . . . /2 ; ' nus is rertmo av necvaeu rnren Addendum to Report CD-6-95 - 2 - March 6 , 1995 BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: On February 13 , 1995, Council referred Report CD-6-95 back to staff for clarification of the 10o administrative fee for the processing of heritage designated property grants . In July 1994 , the Municipality applied to the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Recreation for a grant in the amount of $15, 000 for restorations to five designated properties . In a letter dated August 26, 1994, the Ministry advised that the grant amount requested (including 10% administrative fee) was $16, 500 . The grant awarded was noted as being $13, 728 (see Attachment A) . The correspondence does not indicate, however, it was determined through conversation with the Ministry that this figure includes the 10% administrative fee. It should be noted that the administrative fee is an amount that the Ministry pays to the Municipality for processing the applications . Because the letter did not specifically indicate that the administrative fee was included in the $13, 728, there was some confusion in the amount of the grant available to the property owners . The Local Architectural Advisory Committee (L.A. C.A. C. ) have been working with the property owners on the premise that the entire amount is available, when, in fact, the Municipality was proceeding on the assumption that $12 , 480 was available to L.A.C.A. C. ($13, 728 - $1, 248 administrative fee) . The Ministry has been contacted and have advised that in order to assist the L.A.C.A.C. s, some municipalities have forfeited the administrative fee, thereby allowing more funds to be made available to the property owners . In light of the above information, it is recommended that the Municipality waiver the loo administrative fee in this instance and that the four property grants be approved. Since the writing of Report CD-6-95, the invoice for the Eber Millson House has been submitted. The total amount of the work completed is $3 , 905 . 50, much lower than originally quoted. The grant amount requested is, therefore, $1, 952 . 75, not $3 , 000 as stated in Report CD-6-95 . Respect-f lly submitted Review by /Pat L. B rie, A.M. C.T. W. H.
