Preserving J ntario's Architecture program
Designed to raise uality and develop expertise
The Ministry of. Citizenship and Culture
has established a new program, Preserv-
ing Ontario's Architecture, which is
designed to stimulate and support the con-
servation of the province's architectural
heritage. This new program has two major
components:
EDUCATION AND TECHNICIAL
SUPPORT
In order to support the community-
based approach of Preserving Ontario's
Architecture, a strong program of educa-
tion and technical suport has been
developed. The purpose of such a program
is twofold: to raise the quality of architec-
tural conservation projects and to develop
conservation expertise within
communities.
To accomplish these objectives, the pro-
gram will provide: technical advice, sup-
port and will,
to LACAC members,
municipal officials and members of
heritage organizations involved in ad-
ministering preservation grants programs
such • as Designated Property Grants,
Revolving Heritage Funds and,Conserva-
tion District Funds. Also, adviceand train-
ing to property owners, heritage. groups,
tradespeople and building professionals in
the execution of heritage conservation pro-
jects, and in the care .and maintenance of
' heritage buildings.
FINANCIAL SUPPORT
Preserving Ontario's Architecture in-
cludes four grant programs: Three of these
'will 'be administered within communities,
through transfer payments from the
Ministry . of Citizenship and Culture to
municipalities or appropriate. heritage
organizations. The tourth program will be
administered directly by the Ministry.
Designated Property Grants have been
established to enable municipalities to
assist in the conservation of properties
designated' under the Ontario Heritage
Act. Grants to a miximum of $3,000 per
year are available through municipalities
participating in the program, but must be
matched on a 50-50 basis by the property
owner in Southern Ontario, or a 13 - 23
basis in Norther Ontario ( with the grant
paying 23 of the eligible costs, to the $3,000
maximum ) .
The grants are to assist with the conser-
vation of restoration of elements specified
in the reasons for designation of the pro- •
perty. Eligible projects will be defined in
the Designated Property Grant Guidelines
provided by the Ministry.
The administration of these grants will
be as follows:
- property owners will apply to a
municipality prior to undertaking any
work;
- the municipality's representatives
LACAC and/or Clerk's office), will work
with owners to ensure the eligibility and
• acceptability of projects;
- upon satisfactory completion of the work,
the municipality will pay t'he grant to the
owners;
-twice a year, the municipality will submit
claims to the Ministry for grants paid out.
For municipalities. with LACACs which
demonstrated success in administering
Designated Property Grants, the Ministry
will make lump -sum transfer payments at
the beginning of the fiscal year.

Seed money will be provided fur

porations wanting to establish a Revolving

will be provided by the Preserving On-
tario's Architecture program, with the re-
mainder being raised from local sources.
The monies will be used' to establish -
revolving funds for the purpose of in-
vesting in architectural conservation pro-
jects that have the potential of returning

Program formed
for is ersons
reliant on alcohol
• On a day when a provincial court iuilgl'
delayed sentencing a man convicted of im-
paired driving so that he could attend Blue
Jay games. a group of men serving weekend
sentences for impaired driving and/or other
alcohol/drug related charges, were presen-
ting a brief to the Government of Ontario
asking for stiffer penalties.
"A 90 day weekend sentence following my
third conviction for impaired driving was a
mere slap on the wrist for tie. We want stif-
' fer penalties; we don't want to hurt anyone
...." says Brian Wells, a participant in the
Mimico Alcohol and Drug Education
i MADE) program.
Written by the inmates themselves. the
brief is their attempt to share with the
Premier of Ontario the insights they have
developed in the program and coming out of
their own addictions and criminal behavior.
The Hon. Monte Kwinter.�ccepted the brief
on behalf of the Premier corrunenting on the
uniqueness of a brief prepared by the. of -
renders themselves.
MADE is an educational program of
Alcohol and Drug Concerns; Inc. which was
developed specifically for individuals whose
crime was influenced by a dependency on
drugs and/or alcohol. It represents a form
of diversionary sentencing which offers
weekend confinement in an educational
rather than correctional setting, Par-
ticipants in the programme are referred by
the Mitnico Correctional Institution. MADE
operative since September. 1985, consists, of
a six week course which provides factual in-
formation about the psychological, sot'ial
and legal aspects of drug and alcohol misuse
combined with opportunities for par-
ticipants to discuss their own behavior and
problems with others in the group. Skillful
leaders assist participants to develop in-
sight into their own anti -social behavior and
maximize on opportunities to build self-
esteem. Approximately 200 individuals are
referred to the program each year.
Alcohol and Drug Concern, Inc. is a non-
profit organization involved in preventive
education. The principal activities are
educational programmes and social action.
Its Charter, provincial since 1934, will
become national in 1987.
