Overview

The role of the Historical Preservation Committee is to review nominations for local historic landmarks and make recommendations to the City Council. Once a structure is locally landmarked, the Committee also reviews proposals for moving, exterior remodeling and/or demolition. In addition, the Committee conducts historical surveys and assists with public education programs about local history.

The board consists of five citizen-members who are appointed to 2-year terms. At least one member must also be a Ute Pass Historical Society Board Member or designee. This board may also include one member of the City Council, one member of the Planning Commission, and one youth member.

Colorado's Historic Preservation Tax Credits

In July 2015, the state of Colorado offered a new tax credit for the rehabilitation of qualified historic buildings. This credit expands and improves upon the original rehabilitation tax credit that has been on the books since 1990. Colorado Tax Credits Brochure
