These applications are reviewed by the Commission in keeping with the Preservation Guidelines and Standards for Oklahoma City Historic Districts in Oklahoma City. The Commission requires that each application be presented by the published deadline to the Historic Preservation Officer with complete and detailed information on each element of the proposal requiring a CA. Please note the following procedures governing the actions of Staff and Commissioners. MEETING PREPARATION Commissioners have access to all applications and staff reports several days before the meeting, so they may review proposals and visit project sites. Incomplete applications may not be forwarded to Commission for review. Applications with incomplete documentation are subject to continuance or denial. Late or additional documentation may not be accepted at the meeting. PUBLIC MEETING PROCEDURES The Chairman will announce each case, and ask any party having an interest in the case to indicate their presence by raising their hand. Commissioners will discuss the details of the case, calling on staff to provide details of the proposals. Following this discussion, Commissioners may choose to ask questions of the parties present. Interested persons may speak to support or protest the application. The applicant will be entitled to one brief rebuttal. Interaction between applicant and protestants on the floor is not permitted. Persons speaking are asked to approach the center podium one at a time, to introduce themselves by name and address, and to present their position as succinctly as possible.

Approve the Certificate of Appropriateness; 2. Continue the proposal; 3. Deny the proposal with prejudice, which means the application may not be resubmitted for at least one year unless the Commission determines that circumstances have changed; and 4.
