Last week, homeowners within the Prospect Heights historic district study area received a letter advising that the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission will hold a meeting on July 15 to "calendar" the proposed district for a public hearing on October 28, 2008.

Calendaring is the first step in the designation process. Public testimony will not be taken at the calendaring meeting, but residents are welcome to attend. PHNDC.org will publish the time and location of the meeting when available.

In the event the Commission votes to calendar the Prospect Heights historic district for a vote on designation on October 28, the public will have an opportunity to speak at that meeting.

Residents with questions about historic designation may call Claire Kendall at (212) 669-7925.
