Revise “historic district commission” membership criteria

Introduced in the House

Aug. 18, 2010

Introduced by Rep. Richard Ball (R-85)

To revise the law that authorizes local “historic district commissions” with the power to prohibit property owners from making exterior and in some cases interior changes to their buildings, by eliminating a requirement that members of the commission be residents of the community. Instead, they could just be renters or non-resident property owners.

Referred to the Committee on Intergovernmental, Urban, and Regional Affairs
