The Greenville County Historic Preservation Commission has the responsibility of promoting the
purposes and objectives of the historic preservation ordinance, reviewing the designation of individual
historic properties and historic district, and plans and applications for all construction within historic
districts and construction or demolition pertaining to duly designated districts and designated historic properties.
County Historic Designation
Bailey Bill
The Bailey Bill (SC Code of Laws §4-9-195 and §5-21-140) authorizes local governments to offer a
special property tax assessment for rehabilitated historic buildings. The County’s ordinance was
amended in May 2013 to enhance the incentives to restore historic structures, thus making these
renovation projects more economically feasible for home and business owners.
Historical Resources Surveys
Historical surveys identify and promote the development and preservation of historical resources.
