The City of Frederick’s Historic Preservation Commission will consider Kemp Property, 1761 Eagle Rock Lane, for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places on September 12, 2024. The National Register is the Federal Government’s official list of properties considered worthy of recognition for their significance in American history and culture. The meeting will be held at City Hall (101 N Court Street) beginning at 6PM. You are most welcome to attend and comment. Should you wish to submit written comments at this time, please address your comments to the Historic Preservation Commission and send to Christina Martinkosky at cmartinkosky@cityoffrederickmd.gov.
The City of Frederick is certified by the Maryland Historical Trust and the National Park Service to participate in the National Register nomination process. In its role as a Certified Local Government, The City of Frederick is charged with an initial assessment of the National Register eligibility of the resource and the sufficiency of the nomination documentation. The Historic Preservation Commission and Mayor Michael O’Connor will make recommendations to the Maryland Historical Trust, which administers the National Register program as the State Historic Preservation Office for Maryland. If both the Historic Preservation Commission and the Mayor oppose the nomination, the process will stop unless an appeal is filed with the State Historic Preservation Officer. If either of these recommends nomination, the documentation will be forwarded to the Maryland Historical Trust for further processing. At a later date in the nomination process, the Maryland Historical Trust will offer you the opportunity to comment again and to submit letters of support or objection if you so desire.
