What It Does

The Saugatuck Historic District Commission is a municipal commission responsible for reviewing proposed work to the exterior of resources (typically buildings) in the City's Historic District to determine if the work meets the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Rehabilitation. Designating an area as a local historic district is one of the few ways a community can provide legal protection for its historic resources.

The Commission shall consist of seven members who are residents of the City of Saugatuck, and shall be appointed by the Mayor with approval of the City Council.

Members of this Commission shall serve for terms of three years.
