The Montana State Preservation Review Board consists of nine-members appointed by the Governor. Their duties include the review and approval of National Register documentation, the review of appeals to National Register nominations, providing written opinions on the significance of properties, the review of completed State historic preservation plans, and providing general advice and professional recommendations to state agencies and the State Historic Preservation Office on the stewardship of heritage properties. Montana’s Preservation Review Board meets three times per year (typically in January, May, and September). Agenda and supporting documentation for upcoming meetings, minutes for past meetings, and a list of current board members are available below.
