Historic review board agrees to simplify application instructions
Summary
Board members agreed to replace an outdated online application page with a concise, linked 'steps to apply' sheet and asked colleagues to send edits to the preparer by the end of next week.
Board members reviewed a draft streamlined application packet Lauren prepared to replace an outdated online instructions page and parts of the 1999 standards. Members said the zoning board's two- to three-page checklist served as a model and asked Lauren to consolidate the guidance into a short "steps to apply" document that links to the village code and research resources.
The group asked all members to submit comments on Lauren's three documents by the end of next week so she can incorporate edits before the next meeting. The board agreed the short, linkable sheet should live on the village Historic District Review Board (HDRB) page to make the filing schedule, deadlines and links to the village code easy for applicants to find.
