Upon receipt of a complete National Register form, the property will be scheduled for State Historic Preservation Board review. If the documentation is incomplete, the staff will provide you with comments or assist you in the necessary revisions. Completed forms must be received at least forty-five days prior to a scheduled meeting in order to be considered at that meeting. The preservation board meets three times a year to review requests for National Register listing. The board is composed of professionals in architecture, archeology, architectural history, and history, as well as interested lay people.
All meetings are open to the public.
Comments concerning a request for nomination will be received by the board during the meeting, or they can be addressed to the board by letter prior to the meeting date. Owners, sponsors, and applicants are notified of the board's action following the meeting. Upon the positive action of the board, the nomination is forwarded to the State Historic Preservation Officer. The State Historic Preservation Officer performs the final state level review of the nomination. If the State Historic Preservation Officer agrees that the property is eligible, the form is signed and submitted to the Keeper of the National Register.
