Selected homes will be recognized for their contributions to the history of Columbia.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Applications can be requested by email to Rusty Palmer, staff liaison to the Historic Preservation Commission, at </span><a style="white-space:nowrap" href="mailto:Rusty.Palmer@CoMo.gov"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rusty.Palmer@CoMo.gov</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> or online at C</span><a style="white-space:nowrap" href="https://www.como.gov/boards/historic-preservation-commission/most-notable-properties-program/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">oMo.gov/boards/historic-preservation-commission/most-notable-properties-program/</span></a></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The HPC Most Notable Properties designation is open to properties over 50 years old located within the City of Columbia corporate limits. Properties may be a house, a park or a workplace which is used residentially, industrially or commercially, may be endangered or derelict, recently restored or just nicely maintained. It does not matter if the property is modest or grand, hidden-away or in the public view, as long as it plays a part in the historical and architectural influences that help shape Columbia’s identity.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since 1998 over 200 properties have been recognized to date.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Applications will be accepted through noon, Friday, Dec. 29, 2023.</span></p></div>
