What is a Heritage Permit?

A heritage permit is a formal approval granted by heritage authorities that allows property owners to make changes to a heritage site. The purpose of the permit is for the authorities to ensure that proposed alterations do not adversely affect the historical, architectural, or cultural significance of the property.
