Historic Preservation efforts within the Village of Allouez are lead by the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC). The purpose of the commission is to carry out directives of the Historic Preservation Ordinance. The HPC reviews all Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) applications. This application process is to ensure substantial modifications to the exteriors of locally designated historic properties keep with the historic integrity of the structure or neighborhood. Along with COA reviews, the commission works closely with the Historic Allouez Society and the Brown County Trust for Historical Preservation to jointly promote awareness, education, and protection of our history.
The HPC meets quarterly (as well as intermittently, if needed) the 4th Wednesday of January, April, July, & October at 6:00 p.m. at the Allouez Village Hall.
