Due to the current tech issue facing the City of Columbus, Planning’s online application system for Certificates of Appropriateness is not functioning at this time. Staff is also unable to send or receive emails and our phone tree is not working. The City is working to resolve these issues and we hope to have our automated system running soon. All application deadlines for the upcoming Historic Preservation and Design Review meetings will be extended.
If you have a time sensitive Staff Approvable item which you must have reviewed, then you will have to print off a copy of your proposal and include a copy of our paper Application. Include all relevant drawings, photos, and product cut sheets. All submissions must be complete or they will not be processed. Drop these materials off in the “Planning” basket at the security desk at:

The Italian Village Commission and the Italian Village Historic District were established by Ordinance # 1579-73 in 1973. The Commission Guidelines were adopted in 1990. The Italian Village Commission consists of seven (7) mayoral appointees who serve without compensation. It is the duty of the Commission to preserve, protect and enhance the unique architectural and historical features of the Italian Village Historic District.
The Commission considers applications and issues Certificates of Appropriateness for exterior alterations at properties located within the Italian Village Historic District boundaries, pursuant to Columbus City Code chapters 3116 and 3119 the Italian Village District Guidelines. The High Street corridor within Italian Village and Victorian Village is covered by the Short North Design Guidelines, which provide a unified framework for reviewing projects in this vibrant area.
Those looking to submit an application for review by the Italian Village Commission should refer to the Information for Applicants(PDF, 1MB) resource for details on the process. The blank application form is linked below.
