Project Scope

The Norhill Historic District Design Guidelines have been created to:

  • preserve the historic character
  • maintain the traditional building scale in front
  • maintain the traditional lot coverage
  • develop context sensitive design
  • clarify the existing historic preservation ordinance
  • provide a user-friendly design guidelines document

Norhill Design Guidelines Workshop

Your participation is important to us. This online activity enables you to review the draft of the design guidelines Norhill Historic District and respond to specific questions. Your feedback will be used to refine the draft.

  • Each module includes a presentation to watch and a series of questions. It will take approximately 15 to 20 minutes to complete each module.
  • You may close your browser after completing a module and your responses will be saved once you click the "Save and Continue" button at the bottom of the page. You will not be able to change your answers once you click on the "Save and Continue" button.
  • Each module must be completed in one sitting; otherwise, your responses to the questions in that module will not be saved.
  • If you wish to complete the other module later, you may return to the workshop using the same link and you will be taken to the place where you left off.
  • The workshop can be completed only once from a single device (computer, phone, tablet, pad, etc.) Therefore, if there are other people in your household wishing to complete the workshop, they must utilize different devices.

Thank you for taking time to participate in this workshop.
