Summary of Recent Activities

The Verona Landmarks Preservation Commission:

  • Is reviewing the existing preservation ordinance to ensure it meets the needs of the community, bring it in line with other municipalities in New Jersey, and clarifies the standards, procedures, and criteria that will preserve our town’s landmarks.
  • Worked with the Planning Board to update the Historic Preservation Element of the Master Plan, as required by ordinance.
  • Began to identify a plan of action to survey and nominate sites in the Township.  The first site to be listed in the Master Plan as a designated landmark is the Freight Shed, located on the corner of Depot Street and Personette Avenue.
  • Launched this website, which will provide residents with easy access to the ordinance, information about the historic sites noted in the Master Plan, and contact information for the Commission members. The ultimate goal is to make this website a resource for residences who are undertaking a restoration of their homes, even if the homes are not designated as landmark sites.
