On June 25, 2025, City Council adopted Item 2025.NY24.9 which included the property at 36 Green Valley Road on the City's Heritage Register.

The OHA establishes a process whereby owners can object to a property's listing on the Heritage Register and, should they do so, a subsequent decision on the listing must be made by the municipality. Owners can object to listings at any time Chapter 103 of the Toronto Municipal Code sets out the process for Council consideration of objections to properties included on the Heritage Register. City Council must be made aware of such objections on a routine basis so that they may consider the matter and render a final decision. Once Council has decided on the objection, the OHA requires that the owner of the property must be notified of Council's decision within 90 days. Council's decision on objections to listing is final and is not subject to appeal. Following a review of the objections to listing submitted for 1771 Bayview Avenue and 36 Green Valley Road, staff are of the opinion that the subject properties hold cultural heritage value. Staff recommend that Council continue to include these properties on the Heritage Register.
