What the HDBR does
The Historic District Board of Review rules on exterior changes in Savannah’s downtown historic district — Oglethorpe’s plan of squares and wards. It issues Certificates of Appropriateness for alterations, additions, new construction, demolition, signs and other visible work, after the MPC’s preservation staff review each petition against the district’s design standards. This site follows each petition from the agenda through to the decision recorded in the official minutes.
