The purpose of this title is to promote preservation in the Village of historically and architecturally significant places and structures. The Village is blessed with a vibrant history, and there are many places and structures within the Village that are significant to the Village's history, culture, and architecture. The Village and its residents should be vigilant about preserving the Village's past, and the Village wants to encourage the owners and caretakers of those places and structures to protect them. The Village thus provides these regulations pertaining to historic preservation, seeking to protect, enhance, and perpetuate those historical structures, buildings, and sites valued by the Village and its residents.
