A local historic district is an area of the city that has been added to the Tacoma Register of Historic Places in recognition of its history or character. Local historic districts are administered as overlay zones. Being located within a local historic district means that exterior changes to properties within the district require design review by the Landmarks Preservation Commission before permits are issued. However, projects that do not require permits, such as paint colors, gutters, and minor maintenance, do not require design review.
More information and documents are available at cityoftacoma.org/collegeparkHD.
