The City of Cornwall’s Planning Division is undertaking the City’s first Archaeological Management Plan (CAMP). The CAMP will establish a management framework to ensure the future identification, evaluation and conservation of the City of Cornwall’s archaeological resources.
The Draft Archaeological Management Plan (May 2023) has been prepared and will be ready for public review on the City’s project website on Wednesday May 24, 2023 at
https://www.cornwall.ca/en/do-business/archaeological-management-plan.aspx.
The Draft CAMP includes:
- An overview of the relevant policy and protocols for managing archaeological resources;
- Indigenous Engagement Protocol for the City;
- Historical background and known archaeological resources;
- Archaeological site potential model for Cornwall; and
- An outline for when an archaeological assessment is required.
You are invited to attend a Public Open House to learn more about the Draft CAMP, and the final next steps for the project. The Public Open House will be held on:
