The Town Board finds that the Town of Brookhaven possesses many
buildings, structures and areas of historical, architectural and unique
aesthetic value which contribute to its physical well-being and cultural
heritage and that these tangible assets, which provide a sense of
identity and place, should be perpetuated, conserved, protected and
enhanced as a public necessity in harmony with the Comprehensive Town
Plan and to promote the general welfare. Therefore, it is the purpose
and policy of the Town Board to establish historic districts in which
special regulations may be necessary to safeguard these buildings,
structures and areas of significance in an appropriate manner and
to ensure that new buildings, structures and uses within and adjacent
to historic districts will be in harmony with their special character
to be preserved.
