Historical Architectural Review Board

The Historical Architectural Review Board is appointed to give counsel to the Board of Supervisors regarding the advisability of issuing any certificate of appropriateness required to be issued pursuant to the Historic District Act.

The Historical Architectural Review Board is comprised of nine members, four members are appointed by the Council of Plymouth Township, four members are appointed by the Board of Supervisors of Whitemarsh Township and one member to be selected by the eight municipal representatives. The ninth member may be a resident of either municipality. At least one member of the Historical Architectural Review Board must be a registered architect, one member must be a building inspector and at least one member must be a licensed real estate broker. The member chosen by the eight municipal appointees serves for one-year period and the position is alternately filled by a resident of Plymouth Township and a resident of Whitemarsh Township. All other members are appointed for terms of overlapping four years.

In addition to those duties and powers set forth in the Historic District Act, the Historical Architectural Review Board from time to time recommends to the Board of Supervisors changes in the map and otherwise guides the Board of Supervisors in its administration of the Historic District Regulations.
