Branningham Grove building, Owen Sound
Photo by Kirk Scott Owen Sound council has postponed a decision on the fate of a heritage building in the city.
A Toronto-area developer has applied for a permit to tear down Branningham Grove, built in 1881.
City Council's Heritage Advisory Committee has recommended it be designated a 'heritage building' and save it from demolition.
Before anything further happens, council wants a meeting with the developer.
A decision to designate it could be taken to the Ontario Municipal Board.
SPS Board Chair Kelly Ash said the decision followed discussions with Acting Chief Mike Federico and aligns with practices at other police services.
The annual Canada Day parade will begin at 11 a.m. on Saturday, June 27, from Wildwood Park to Kenwick Park.
The $7.6 million project, which also involved water and sewer infrastructure improvements, began in 2024.
The Toronto Blue Jays dropped their third in a row Thursday, 6-5 to the visiting Texas Rangers, and the Detroit Tigers suffered a 2-1 loss to Houston.
The week-long celebration starts on Saturday and continues to next Friday.
Environment Canada said Thursday night that severe thunderstorms were moving further east after rain and high winds affected portions of the region.
