The Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) is a Certified Local Government (CLG) body that has the authority to designate individual properties as local historic landmarks, as well as, designating areas within the Town as historic districts.  Owners of designated historic landmarks or properties that are located within a historic district are required to obtain approval for exterior changes (roof, siding, gutters, etc.) from the Commission. 

In addition, the HPC makes recommendations to the Planning Board regarding site plans involving properties containing historic landmarks. The HPC has conducted surveys of significant historic, architectural, and cultural landmarks within the Town.  The survey data along with designated landmark information will be available soon from our newly redesigned Interactive On-Line Map.
