     "We, the undersigned, who are not residents of Barriefield, wish to register our displeasure at the intent of Kingston City Council to build a housing project on "buffer land" attached to the Village.(From: Kingston City Council meeting, October 20, 2009.) The Village of Barriefield is a Heritage Conservation District of Ontario.
