King County's regional landmark protection program was established in 1995. Cities that want to take part in our regional program must:

• Adopt certain sections of the county landmark ordinance by reference
• 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
