 Typically, if you have a historic district, there's typically a historic district commission that works directly with the city or town to make sure that everything that you do with your home, whether it's painting the outside of your home or replacing a window or a door, is in line with the historic district guidelines that are set forth within that city or town. Sounds a little confusing, but basically, you just got to be careful what you do when you happen to live in one of these districts. I'll give you an example.
