Port Hope Advisory Committee is a committee of the Municipality of Port
Hope Council. The function of the committee is to advise Council on local
heritage matters and to assist in carrying out its heritage conservation
program.
Our focus is to promote heritage conservation within the community, and
advise property owners on appropriate conservation practices.
The passing of the Ontario Heritage Act established the responsibility
of governments to identify and conserve our built heritage. In respect
to this Act, the Heritage Port Hope Advisory Committee (HPH) was formed.
