Federal panel votes to propose changes to historic preservation rules that Trump administration says holds up projects
The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, which is made up primarily of Trump appointees, voted to propose to rewrite requirements to consult with the public if a project may impact historic sites. Among the projects currently undergoing review under the National Historic Preservation Act is President Trump’s Triumphal Arch. The proposed reforms also come as Trump has repeatedly sought to make changes to other Washington, D.C., landmarks, including the White House and the Kennedy Center.
