Details of the Program<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The MILTON HISTORICAL\u00a0SOCIETY,\u00a0in accordance with various objectives and regulations, has the\u00a0responsibility in its plaquing program to establish the following procedures.<\/p>\n

1. The SOCIETY (MHS) will research at its own expense, the property in question\u00a0.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The property OWNER agrees to assist with any private documentation it may have in its possession.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The SOCIETY is bound by rules that govern the architectural design, form of construction and the age of any building to be plaqued. Because of its commitment to the heritage community it has the responsibility to perform this evaluation and research in a just and accurate way.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0It is understood, by both parties, that the wording on the plaque will be in accordance with the information gathered in the research of the property.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0It is understood, by both parties, that there can be no change\u00a0in\u00a0the date of the property once the correct information has been established.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0It is understood, by both parties, that the person making the request for plaquing agrees to the charges made by the Society for the production of the plaque. The fee is $150 per plaque, unless more detail is required on a plaque, which would result in a higher fee charged by the sign maker.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Fee for the plaque is due at the time the research is approved by the OWNER. It is the OWNER’s responsibility to install the plaque at an appropriately visible point on the building. Any fees connected with the installation are the responsibility of the OWNER.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0It is understood by both parties, that if item 5 of this By-law is violated in any manner then the research, plaque and its availability to the owner will be withdrawn by the Milton Historical Society.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0MILTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY reserves the right to alter the wording on the plaque in the future if subsequent research indicates a correction is necessary. The cost of such alteration would be the responsibility of the SOCIETY\u00a0.<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0An application must be completed by the owner to have the property considered for a plaque. The Society reserves the right to decline the research of a property.<\/p>\n
