Policy & Design Guidelines for New Construction, page 3 New construction in Local Historic Districts has an obligation to blend in with the historic character and scale of the Local Historic District

2 Policy & Design Guidelines for New Construction, page 3 New construction in Local Historic Districts has an obligation to blend in with the historic character and scale of the Local Historic District in which it is located. Designs for infill projects and other new construction within designated Local Historic Districts must be designed with the surroundings in mind. The Historic District Commission will not specify a particular architectural style or design for new construction projects. The scale, mass and size of a building are often far more important than the decorative details applied. However, well designed stylistic and decorative elements, as well as building materials and landscaping, can give new construction projects the attributes necessary to blend in with the district, while creating a distinctive character for the building. New construction projects in Local Historic Districts must be appropriate to their surroundings. The Historic District Commission will review the building details for all new construction as part of their evaluation of new construction project proposals. Staff Analysis - The Commission will determine if the proposal meets the guidelines for new construction. 2
