The Historic Review Committee is charged with encouraging the preservation of architecturally and historically significant buildings and structures in Killingworth. To this end, the committee reviews all requests to the town for issuance of a permit to demolish a building or structure and advises the Building Official on the issuance of those permits under Killingworth’s Demolition Delay Ordinance.

The Historic Review Committee consists of five members and two alternates appointed to one-year terms by the Board of Selectmen.
