Historic Preservation Commission

The focus of the Whitestown Historic Preservation Commission are the elements of development, redevelopment, rehabilitation, and preservation that affect visual quality in a historic district, which include but are not limited to public view such as sheds, landscapes, and streetscapes of historic importance. The Commission may conduct surveys, establish historic districts, and act in furtherance of historic preservation in accordance with the provisions of the Act and this Ordinance. The Commission may adopt preservation guidelines for architectural review, which identify local design concerns in an effort to assist property owners in maintaining the character of the designated district or buildings during the process of rehabilitation or new construction. Adopted preservation guidelines shall be published and made readily accessible to the general public.

The Commission meets as needed.
