PHASE 2: HISTORIC RESOURCES SURVEY (COMPLETE)

In 2023 and 2024, Phase 2 of this project was completed with the completion of the Citywide Historic Resources Survey. Please visit the Documents page to review the final Historic Resources Survey.

PHASE 3: HISTORIC PRESERVATION ORDINANCE (IN PROGRESS)

Phase 3 is currently underway with the Historic Resources Group drafting the City’s first Historic Preservation Ordinance. The team will be conducting outreach throughout the project, both to keep the community apprised of the project status and to solicit feedback and input.
