Historic Preservation Guidelines

Historic Preservation Guidelines are established standards aimed at protecting and maintaining buildings, sites, and neighborhoods that hold historical, cultural, or architectural significance. These guidelines help ensure that renovations, restorations, or new constructions respect and reflect the original character and history of a property. They cover aspects such as design, materials, and construction techniques, promoting sustainable practices while allowing for modern use. Ultimately, these guidelines help preserve a community’s heritage for future generations, fostering a sense of identity and continuity.
