Section 190. Appeals

Part VI. Appeals

Any person or local government may appeal to the board the failure or refusal of the director to present a property to the board, upon decision of the director not to present the property for any reason when a completed nomination form or a petition for removal of property from the Virginia Landmarks Register had been submitted to the director pursuant to 17VAC5-30-140 or 17VAC5-30-180. The failure of the director to respond to an applicant within the schedule set out in 17VAC5-30-140 for completed nominations or the schedule set out in 17VAC5-30-180 for removal petitions may be deemed a failure or refusal to present the property to the board. Upon the request of the board, the director shall complete the applicable notification and hearing requirements of this chapter and shall present the nomination form or the petition for removal to the board for its consideration.

Subject to the provisions of the Code of Virginia and of this chapter, the board has all final decision-making authority for adding properties to the Virginia Landmarks Register, for revising previous designations, and for removing properties from the Virginia Landmarks Register.
