The seven-member volunteer commission is responsible for reviewing nominations to the National Register of Historic Places and the Clark County Heritage Register, conducting design reviews for building and site changes on the local register, reviewing applications for the special valuation tax incentive for historic properties, and overseeing community education and outreach.
