The Hanover Historical
Commission is the town's agency responsible for identifying, evaluating and
protecting the historic and archeological assets within the town, maintains the
inventory of the town's historic assets and administers specific statutes that
protect historic properties.
The Hanover Historical
Commission was formed in 1983 to oversee the preservation of the historical
elements of our Town. The Selectmen appoints 5 members, each of
which holds a 3 year term. The Board is composed of an architect, a real
estate person, a member of the Hanover Historical Society, and two members at
large.
The Commission meets as needed and
cooperates with the Planning Board, Building Inspector, Assessor, Historical
Society, and other groups and individuals who might seek their advice. The
Board suggests appropriate names for new subdivisions, reviews applications for
demolition permits from the Building Inspector, receives applications for the
installation of "date boards" for old houses and works to preserve the
historical and pastoral atmosphere of this fine New England town.
