LPC Rules Changes Public Hearing

Don’t let them cut the public out of the process!  The Landmarks Preservation Commission plans to change their rules so that applications regarding landmarked buildings and those in historic districts will no longer have a transparent, public review. Proposed changes will not have to go before the local Community Board, and neighbors and others will no longer have the opportunity to comment on potential building changes. In fact, no one will even know about proposed changes, as there will no longer be public notification.  Decisions will be made by LPC staff members.

Do you want a voice in your community? Start at the public hearing on these rules changes!  Tuesday, March 27th at 9:30am at the LPC hearing room, Municipal Building, One Centre Street, 9th floor.

Individuals may read a 3-minute prepared statement or submit a longer written letter. Or just come out to show the LPC that you care about what happens to the buildings and character of your community!
