Difference Between the Register and Inventory
The main difference between the Register and Inventory is the degree of protection provided.
The Inventory is a list of heritage resources that merit conservation, but are not legally protected. Once they are designated as a Municipal Historic Resource they are put on the Register and protected.
The Register is a list of Municipal Historic Resources that are legally protected from demolition or inappropriate alteration under Policy C-450B. This agreement is registered on the title.
