  • Appoint a city representative to the Landmarks Commission
  • Provide for design review of any changes proposed to landmark properties

Our program also provides additional services, such as:

  • Preparing nominations
  • Conducting historic resource surveys
  • Providing assistance with preservation planning and environmental review
