Historic Preservation Design Guidelines, City of Fort Lauderdale

Preservation Design Partnership, LLC and Hawkins DM. 2012. Historic Preservation Design Guidelines, City of Fort Lauderdale. Department of Sustainable Development, City of Fort Lauderdale; Division of Historical Resources, Florida Department of State. Fort Lauderdale, Florida

From introduction: "The Fort Lauderdale Historic Preservation Design Guidelines (Guidelines) are intended to act as a tool to help manage change and protect the City’s architectural and historical resources. The Guidelines provide information, guidance and regulations to be followed by property owners, design professionals, contractors, City Staff and the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) with regard to historic resources. They are intended as a supplement to, rather than as a substitute for, consultation with qualified architects, contractors and Department of Sustainable Development (DSD) Staff. The Guidelines are based upon The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. It is recommended that applicants review the information in the Guidelines sections during the early stages of planning a project... The City of Fort Lauderdale recognizes that the character and quality of life enjoyed by its citizens depend in great measure upon the City’s rich architectural heritage and the important natural and designed landscapes in our community. The City and the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) work together to ensure our historical, cultural, archeological, social and economic heritage, entrusted to each generation, is enriched and passed on to future generations." Project funding was provided in part by a 2011 Historic Preservation Fund grant to the City of Fort Lauderdale (project number FL-11-012) administered by the Florida State Historic Preservation Office (grant number 12-11-31916) and the State, Tribal, and Local Plans and Grants Division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior. Fort Lauderdale, Florida is a Certified Local Government.
