When planning your next project, check to see if it requires a COA application before you begin. Some projects may receive administration approval instead of a Commission meeting, while others may be considered maintenance and do not require a COA application. Contact the Department of Development for more details by email at HPC@wl.in.gov or phone at (765) 775-5164.

You can submit your application online, by email, or in person with the Department of Development. For filing dates, see the 2024 HPC Calendar and Filing Dates.

Unsure what documents to submit along with your COA application? View our HPC City Staff Review Form for various types of projects.

You can also complete the COA application manually by completing the Certificate of Appropriateness Application (PDF).

For further application information, view the Additional Information Sheet.
