Greenville Historic Design Standards Update 

The City of Greenville, North Carolina is working to refresh its Historic District and Local Landmark Design Standards, originally developed in 2014, to better serve the community and align with current state regulations and local planning documents. This project will enhance the existing standards by incorporating clearer language, local photographs, helpful diagrams, and practical guidance on appropriate materials and treatments for historic properties. Through collaborative community engagement, the updated standards will create a more user-friendly resource that helps property owners understand appropriate approaches for maintaining their historic properties while providing City staff and the Historic Preservation Commission with improved standards for reviewing applications and issuing Certificates of Appropriateness.
