City of Austin - Historic Preservation Office Historic Zoning Application Packet General Overview Historic zoning is a zoning overlay which is added to the base zoning of a specific tract of land (for example, CBD-H denotes Central Business District-Historic Zoning). To qualify for City Historic Landmark status, a property must meet the local historic designation criteria (see below). Applicants must submit historical documentation demonstrating how the property meets these criteria (see attached submittal requirements). The Historic Landmark Commission reviews all applications for City Historic Landmark designation, with the Austin City Council making final decisions on these designations. At least three (3) months are typically required to process a City Historic Landmark designation through the City Council once a complete application is received. Once designated, all proposed exterior site and building changes (other than routine maintenance) to a historically zoned tract require advance review and approval by the City Historic Landmark Commission. The Historic Landmark Commission's design standards are available on the Historic Preservation Office website: https://www.austintexas.gov/department/historic-preservation. Landmark properties that are in good repair and in full compliance with the City historic review requirements are eligible to apply annually for a historic property tax exemption. For information on the historic zoning process, refer to Chapter 25-2 of the City Land Development Code.
