Historic Architectural Review Board (HARB)
|
The HARB is the functional arm of the Borough’s Historic District Ordinance. The Board works to develop comprehensive design guidelines, educational materials & offerings to promote the concept of historic preservation and gain widespread public support.
All exterior work proposed for buildings in the Borough’s Historic District is examined, from permit applications to the Borough, by the Board’s consultant. Work that can be “administratively approved” by the consultant is released for immediate construction. Work needing HARB (Board) approval is presented by the applicant to the Board for consideration of appropriateness. The Board provides recommendations to Borough Council for approval.
Potential applicants are encouraged to ask to be placed on the meeting agenda to discuss design concepts and receive comments from the HARB before finalizing their conceptual plans and submitting a completed application.
