ORANGE COUNTY HISTORIC SITE PLAQUE PROGRAM
The County’s Historical Site Plaque Program is administered by the Orange County Historical Commission (OCHC) under authority of the Board of Supervisors. The program’s purpose is to place plaques containing historical data at selected sites in order to identify their location and significance and to promote their preservation and use.
Proponents of a historic site plaque should submit an application to OCHC. The application should include an authorization and approval statement prepared by the owner of the site. A member of OCHC then visits the site and reports to the Plaque Committee, which evaluates the application based on criteria of significance and reports the matter to the OCHC.
Please contact the Historical Commission Office to obtain an application packet.
