By filling out this 5 min survey you can help the Town’s Tourism, Culture and Heritage Committee make recommendations to Council on how to recognize and manage cultural resources in our Town. We are learning what cultural resources are present in Harbour Main-Chapel’s Cove-Lakeview that make the Town unique, and we want to have a clear understanding of what is important to residents based on your individual feedback.

We will hold a public consultation session on Tuesday May 10 from 6-8pm, at the basement of the Town Hall, to:
* Update residents about successful grants awarded and proposed actions for Come Home Year
* Identify what cultural/historical resources are in our town and possibilities for utilizing them
* Gather feedback on what's important in terms of heritage & ideas to use & protect these spaces

Thank you for taking the time to share your ideas and recommendations.
