Yes. In fact this is a fairly common problem with historic properties. A project should never be denied because of the need to address legitimate code concerns. Contact Brien Schumacher, Historic Preservation Commission Liaison, at 303-651-8764 or contact our Building Inspection Division at 303-651-8303 prior to submitting a Certificate of Appropriateness, they can assist you in reviewing your project.
