Green Acres Neighborhood to Be Considered for Local Conservation District Status
The Bloomington Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) will meet to consider an application to designate the Green Acres Neighborhood as a local Conservation District. If the HPC votes in favor of the proposal, the recommendation will go to the Common Council for consideration. The decision to designate Green Acres as a Conservation District ultimately rests with the Council. More information about Conservation Districts and Historic Districts can be found on the City website.
The meeting will take place on Monday, Aug. 12 at 5 p.m. in the Hooker Conference Room, City Hall, room 245. The public is invited to attend in person or online via Zoom.
