Designating A Property

Historic Preservation Ordinance
(Requires Adobe Acrobat Reader)

How does a property become a historic site or historic district?

First, a designation report, which fully describes the structure(s) and the associated historic and architectural significance, is prepared. Then, a public hearing is conducted where property owners and any interested citizens are encouraged to express their opinions. The Historic and Environmental Preservation Board then approves or denies the historic designation.
