Home My WebLink AboutB - Adoption of List of Potential Historic LandmarksAGENDA ITEM TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: ROY BRUCKNRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT VIA: RICK COLE, CITY MANAGER zO-1 ` DATE: FEBRUARY 20, 2001 SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF LIST OF POTENTIAL HISTORIC LANDMARKS RECOMMENDATION The City Council should adopt the attached resolution adopting a List of Potential Historic Landmarks. BACKGROUND The Cultural and Historic Preservation Commission and the City Council have recently held workshops and public hearings to adopt a Historic Preservation Ordinance, and a List of Potential Historic Landmarks to which the Preservation ordinance would apply. At the conclusion of the most recent public hearing on this matter, held on October 2, 2000, the City Council directed that the List of Potential Historic Landmarks be made voluntary. In implementing this directive, Staff accomplished the following: 1. Sent a notice and ballot to all affected property owners on the Potential List with a deadline for return of November 30 (see Attachment 1). 2. Sent a follow-up notice after the deadline to all property owners, advising property owners that the City has received either an affirmative response, a negative response, or lack of response (see Attachment 2). It was made clear in the notifications that a lack of response would be counted as a "Yes" vote, resulting in their property to be placed on the List of Potential Historic Landmarks. The resultant list is attached to the resolution as Exhibit A. Property owners on this list have been notified of tonight's public hearing by mail, and a notice has been published in the newspaper. The Cultural and Historic Preservation Commission has reviewed the list, and has recommended adoption by the City Council. For Council's information, a list of property owners who voted "no" is presented as Attachment 3. FISCAL IMPACT None. i ■ l ! .;1 41fto `.. Attachment 1 Department of Community Development P.O.
