Purpose

The purpose of the Architectural Review Board is to review all requests for exterior changes to historic structures and surface improvements to historic properties to ensure the planned improvements are consistent with the architectural and historical character of the individual structure and the neighborhood in which it is located. This is to provide for property improvements while preserving and protecting the uniqueness of the neighborhood and the investment of the property owners. Each member must have a demonstrated interest, competence, or knowledge in historic preservation. One shall be a resident of the City Point Historic District, one shall be an architect or an architectural historian meeting the Secretary of the Interior’s professional qualifications standards referred to in 36 CFR 61.
