How do I know if my property is in a local historic district? Properties located within a local historic district have an “HD” in their zoning classification (e.g. SF-3-HD-NP). You can determine your property’s zoning classification by searching for the property address on the City of Austin’s internet GIS viewer (http://www.austintexas.gov/GIS/developmentwebmap/Viewer.aspx), or by visiting the City’s Historic Preservation Office web site at http://www.austintexas.gov/department/historic- preservation. 2. What is a “contributing” property? Historic districts are comprised of two types of properties, contributing and non-contributing. Broadly defined, a contributing property is any structure built during the district’s period of significance that adds to the historical integrity or architectural qualities that make a historic district significant. In general, contributing properties are integral parts of the historic context and character of a historic district. Properties are classified as contributing or non-contributing as part of the process of adopting the local historic district zoning overlay. You can determine if your property is a contributing building by visiting the City’s Historic Preservation Office (CHPO) web site at http://www.austintexas.gov/department/local-historic-districts, or by contacting the CHPO at 512-974-2727. 3. If my property is not a contributing building in the district, am I eligible to receive the Local Historic District tax abatement? Yes, if your property is at least 50 years old, and would be “contributing” to the district if not for non-historic alterations. If the improvements you propose remove the non-historic architectural features, or restore original features and bring your property to contributing status for the district, and the project meets other requirements of the program, you may be eligible to receive the rehabilitation tax abatement. 4. What guidelines are used to determine if the work I propose is appropriate? All work must comply with the Preservation Plan and Design Standards adopted for the local historic district in which the property is located and all work must be approved by the Historic Landmark Commission. The Standards for each Local Historic District can be found on the City of Austin’s Historic Preservation Office web site. 5. If I sell my property, can the new owner receive the abatement? The abatement is transferred to new owners within the allowed duration period, however new owners are required to submit a request to the Travis County Appraisal District annually to receive the abatement. 6. What if I have completed my rehabilitation work prior to submitting my application? Abatements can not be applied to expenditures made prior to approval of the Certificate of Eligibility. 7. Can I appeal a denial of the Certification of Eligibility or Certificate of Verification? If the Historic Landmark Commission determines your project is not eligible for abatement you may appeal the decision to the Planning Commission. To appeal you must file a written request with the Historic Preservation Office not later than the 30th day after the date written notice of the decision is provided to you. On appeal, the Planning Commission shall consider only whether the Historic Landmark Commission erred in determining your project not eligible for the abatement under Section 11-1-63 of the City ordinance.
