At a public meeting on June 20, 2009 in Honeywood, Highland Companies spokesperson said these homes had been condemned and were uninsurable and had to be torn down.  The Chief Building Official for the County of Dufferin, however, has confirmed that no such orders were issued by the building department who is the only authorized authority for this type of order.   

If you are troubled by this continued assault on our community heritage, then please voice your concerns to your councillors as well as county and provincial representatives.  Contact information for all levels of government are available on this website.
