Recognition: The Local Historic Register recognizes the significance of a property to the community, state and/or nation. Tax incentives: Owners of properties placed on the Local Historic Register who substantially rehabilitate a historic property, can apply to the city and county for a property tax exemption on the assessed value of all improvements to the historic property. Protection: Historic designation can protect buildings from hasty demolition, and protects historic buildings and districts from incompatible development. Greater property appreciation: Studies have shown that historically designated properties can appreciate at a greater rate than comparable properties that are not designated. Neighborhood pride and revitalization: Historic properties increase neighborhood pride. Historic designation also provides a good tool for neighborhood revitalization. Heritage tourism: Buildings on the Local Historic Register can benefit from heritage tourism. A historic district that is aesthetically cohesive and well promoted can be a community attraction and an economic generator.
