Subject: 698 Spadina - Support for heritage designation at Toronto Preservation Board
At the community consultation meeting Monday, 16 January 2017, we learned from a heritage planner that the city has initiated the process to have 698 Spadina Avenue designated.
Heritage designation protects the building from being demolished and the setback on the lot .

The planner at Heritage Preservation Services informed me that community support is very helpful at the board hearing.
I have registered to speak supporting this consideration.
I ask you to write to the Board to strengthen the community support for this consideration.

It is important to remember that this hearing is about heritage preservation and not about any building proposal in our community. Please keep this in mind when writing. As the hearing is on the 26th, submissions should arrive by 23 January 2017.
Please share this with other residents and encourage their support. Thank you, Norman
