The City of Denton contains two (2) historic districts, the Oak/Hickory Historic District and the West Oak Historic District, and the Bell Avenue Conservation District. Any exterior or hardscape modifications that are visible from the public right-of-way to structures located in any of these districts require a Certificate of Appropriateness. The Historic Preservation Officer may administratively approve a Certificate of Appropriateness for work that is considered ordinary maintenance or minor alteration. All other Certificates of Appropriateness will be processed and heard through a public hearing process with the Historic Landmark Commission. For additional information, please refer to 35.7.6 of the Denton Development Code.
