HISTORIC COMMISSION SEEKS TO REGULATE PRIVATE PROPERTY

The Caldwell Historic Commission has presented a ordinance allowing the town to designate any property a Historic District.

The Caldwell Historic Commission has presented an ordinance allowing the town to designate any real property a Historic District. Such a property would then be subject to many regulations on improvements such as doors, porches, windows, balconies, paint, misc. structures, and roofs. This may detrimentally affect property value.

The ordinance indicates the property owner’s consent will not be required for such a Historic District designation.

The Historic Commission meets on Tuesday, May 12, 2015, at 7:30 PM in the town hall- 1 Provost Square, Caldwell.
