Mid-century style homes from the sixties in Glen Oaks neighborhood in Dallas on Thursday, March 9, 2023. Lewis has been leading the conservation district process, which has been in the works for about three years. He and the committee of about 10 people are working on dating and documenting the architectural styles of each of the 2,000 homes in Glen Oaks. The process has been slow with a small team. After finding the history and style of each home, the committee will begin to talk to their neighbors for a petition.
“What they’ll do is they’ll eventually submit all of that information along with what’s called a determination of eligibility, which our office will review,” Brown said. “We’d make sure that it meets all the criteria, boundaries, make sense, etc. If that is accepted, that triggers that next phase of a public meeting and petition process before anything moves forward in terms of really getting into becoming a conservation district.
In the last few years, Glen Oaks began to see brick homes painted white or gray pop up that don’t match the mid-century feel.
