The Harpers Ferry Historic Landmarks Commission was established to preserve, protect, and foster the rehabilitation of the Town's historic edifices; to insure that growth of the community is commensurate with its historic significance; and such other objectives, as set forth in West Virginia Code.  The Commission consists of five appointed members.  For complete information, refer to Article 131 of the Harpers Ferry Ordinances.

Regular monthly meetings of the Commission are held at 7:00 p.m. on the last Monday of each month.  Additional meetings are occasionally required.  All meetings are open to the public and are held upstairs at Town Hall.
