What is the name of your state? New Jersey
Our town has a college that is located within a historic district that is officially listed on the National and New Jersey Registers of Historic Places. It has been proposed that a "college zone" be established that will encompass the area of the college. If this takes place, would the historic district rules be overthrown, thereby letting the college have the right to make changes within its zone without review by the New Jersey Historic Preservation Officer? Or would the historic Register laws still be in effect in this college zone?
Also, is the main purpose of a college zone to limit the extent the college can encroach on its surroundings, or enable the college to have MORE leeway within its own zone? Or could it be either way?
If anyone knows the answer to these zoning questions I would appreciate it. Thank you.
