Design Guidelines for the Preservation of Historic Buildings in Oxford, North Carolina
2016. Design Guidelines for the Preservation of Historic Buildings in Oxford, North Carolina. Oxford Historic Preservation Commission; Division of Historical Resources, Office of Archives and History, North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources
From preface: "The Oxford Design Guidelines were developed to provide historic property owners and the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) with a clear and concise standard when changes are being planned for the exteriors of historic buildings within the locally-designated historic districts of College Street and Main Street (see boundary maps on pages 5-6). These Design Guidelines should be referenced when an owner first contemplates an exterior change or addition to an historic property or any new construction within the local historic districts, well in advance of purchases for one’s project and before any work begins. The intent of these guidelines is to promote historic preservation within the City of Oxford and thereby, maintain the unique architectural character of the City. While the guidelines apply only to the locally-designated historic districts, they may also be used as a reference for anyone wishing to maintain the historic integrity of an older building." Funding was provided in part by a 2015 Historic Preservation Fund grant to the City of Oxford (project number NC-15-013) administered by the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (grant number P15AF00080) and the State, Tribal, and Local Plans and Grants Division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior. Oxford, North Carolina is a Certified Local Government.
