The Municipal Heritage Committee (more commonly known as Heritage Oshawa) is a City Council committee comprised of one Council member, ten volunteers from the community and a city staff liaison person.

Any Oshawa resident with knowledge of architecture, engineering, planning, construction, law, local history and/or heritage buildings should consider applying to serve on the committee. >Contact us to >volunteer.

Oshawa's Municipal Heritage Committee (formerly known as a L.A.C.A.C. or Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee) is just one of many in the province. The framework for running all such committees comes from the Ontario Heritage Act. The function of the committee is to advise council on local heritage matters and to assist the council in carrying out its heritage conservation program.
