Purpose and Intent

The purpose of this handbook is to assist property owners, residents, and developers of property in historic districts in filing preservation plans (plans for restoration). Users of this handbook will come to understand the purpose and procedures of the Historic Preservation Commission of the Township of Princeton.

Booklet references to the Princeton Township Land Use Ordinance are included to enable the reader to easily look up the ordinance language. The land use ordinance numbers are current as of November 1995, and are listed in parentheses throughout the text.

The Commission would like to thank Stanley and Sarah Updike for giving permission to reproduce their phorograph of the Updike farm circa 1920.

All other photographs were taken by Clifford Zink for the Princeton Township historic Survey in 1991.
