About

The Board of Selectmen voted on Monday, August 21, 2023 to create a Historic Commission.

The Commission's basic responsibilities are as follows:

A. The Commission, subject to the approval of the Board of Selectmen, shall designate sites and buildings owned or hereafter acquired by the Town of Winchester as historic land sites, and, upon such approval by the Board, such sites shall come under the purview of the Commission. The Commission may from time to time recommend to the Town Manager and Board of Selectmen the acquisition or relinquishment of additional historic land sites.
 
B. The Commission shall be charged with serving in an advisory capacity to guide the development, management, operation, improvement, and maintenance of the historic land sites so designated and shall, additionally, institute and carry out programs designed to acquaint the general public with the historical, cultural, and economic history of the Town of Winchester.
 
C. The Commission may create subcommittees of their membership to constitute Historic District Commissions for the purpose of working to establish and manage historic districts within the Town of Winchester.
