Red Bank commission to resume historic-sites survey; Broad Street prioritized
Summary
The commission heard an update that staff will prioritize a Broad Street survey covering 149 parcels, about 70 of which are over 50 years old; formal approval of the historic-sites guidelines and survey is expected at the October meeting pending state review.
The Red Bank Historic Preservation Commission heard a status update on its historic-sites guidelines and an associated survey at its Sept. 17 meeting, and members were told the item should return for final approval at the October meeting after state review.
A staff member identified as Stephen said he reviewed 149 parcels in the Broad Street Historic District and determined about 70 properties are over 50 years old and retain medium-to-high architectural integrity and have not been previously surveyed. "He determined that about 70 of them were more than 50 years old, retained medium to high architectural integrity and have not been previously surveyed," the commission was told.
Commission members discussed timing and agreed the Broad Street overlay survey has priority because that area sees frequent alterations and tenant turnover and therefore would benefit most from survey work. The commission was told the draft guidelines have been submitted for state review; members expect to act on the document in October when the state’s comments are received.
No formal motion was recorded on the survey during the meeting; staff will return with updated materials and a plan for the October meeting.
