Materials Checklist for Presentation to Review Board The Historic Preservation Review Board requires the following visual information in order to conduct its review. Materials should be submitted at the time of a permit application, but in no case later than 10 days prior to the Board meeting at which the project is reviewed. It is the applicant's responsibility to provide adequate photographs, architectural plans, and other materials to enable the Board to understand the proposal and evaluate its impact on the surroundings. The Board may defer cases if presentation materials are not sufficient to evaluate the proposal.
