17VAC5-30-80. Revisions to properties listed in the Virginia Landmarks Register.
Four justifications exist for altering a boundary of a property previously listed in the Virginia Landmarks Register:
1. Professional error in the initial nomination;
2. Loss of historic integrity;
3. Recognition of additional significance;
4. Additional research documenting that a larger or smaller area should be listed.
The board shall approve no enlargement of a boundary unless the additional area possesses previously unrecognized significance in American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering or culture. The board shall approve no diminution of a boundary unless the properties being removed do not meet the Virginia Landmarks Register criteria for evaluation.
