Pella’s Historic Preservation Commission will review an application to form a historic district in the Collegiate Neighborhood north of Independence Street and west of Main.
A public hearing is scheduled for 6 p.m. this evening for the group to give a formal recommendation to the Pella City Council. According to the City of Pella, historic district overlay zones are geographically cohesive areas with significant concentrations of buildings and other resources that possess a high degree of historical integrity and convey a district sense of time and place and that have been designated as a historic district by the city council pursuant to the proposed ordinance.
