The historic preservation requirements for land development vary depending on the location, jurisdiction, and type of development proposed. Generally, these requirements are put in place to protect the cultural and historical significance of a site and may involve restrictions on building height, materials used, setback distances, and other considerations.
In the United States, the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 established the National Register of Historic Places, which identifies sites, buildings, and structures that are significant to American history, architecture, archaeology, and culture. Properties listed on this register are protected under federal law, and specific guidelines must be followed to preserve their historic character.
Other countries may have their own laws and regulations related to historic preservation, such as UNESCO World Heritage Site designations or national heritage protections.
In addition to legal requirements, development proposals may also be subject to review by local historic preservation boards or commissions, which may have additional guidelines and requirements. These boards or commissions may advise developers on how to preserve historic features or may require specific measures to be taken to protect historically significant features.
