1059 - Bid 1059 - BRISTOL HISTORIC DISTRICT STANDARDS GUIDE

The Town of Bristol is seeking bidders to create a Standards Guide (“Guide”) for the Bristol Historic District Commission (BHDC) for distribution to applicants, contractors, and property owners in said district. Our goal is to both educate the public and lay out uniform standards for the commission to make decisions. The consultant will collaborate closely with the BHDC and Department of Community Development in the development of the Guide. It is anticipated that the Guide will include an explanation of the application and approval process, information about historic preservation for the lay applicant, a glossary of terms of building elements and architectural styles, and illustrations of common architectural styles in Bristol.

When complete, the Guide will be made available online via the town website and in printed form at the Department of Community Development office, ensuring accessibility and usability for all stakeholders involved.
