After a process of public input and staff support, the Historic Preservation Commission recently released its draft version of its design guidelines, and it seeks more public input before finalizing the document. You can read the Draft Guidelines, as well as Appendix A, Appendix B, Appendix C and the proposed chart detailing administrative review.

These documents and more information about the Historic Preservation Commission can be found in the Boards and Commissions listings.

To provide input on the documents, you can email City Planner Pat Escher or Planner/Historic Preservation Staff Herve Hamon. You may also call the Department of Public Works at (410) 228-1955, or mail your replies to:
