Historic Preservation Plan

7. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, shall be
undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments
that cause damage to historic materials shall not be used.

8. Archeological resources shall be protected and preserved
in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation
measures shall be undertaken.

9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new
construction shall not destroy historic materials, features,
and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The
new work shall be differentiated from the old and shall be
compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale
and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the
property and its environment.

10. New additions and adjacent or related new construction shall
be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future,
the essential form and integrity of the historic property and
its environment would be unimpaired.

Design for alterations and additions to existing properties should
not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not
destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material.
Such design should be compatible with the size, scale, color,
material and character of the property, neighborhood and
environment.
