L. Difinition
Mr. Wooden explained this would be a district in addition
to the present zoning. This zone would not affect the use
of the building, only its appearance. In affect, would be
spot zoning.
Mr. Bartel explained the ordinance does not designate what
buildings or areas, these would be designated through a
public hearing process. Age, time or architecture are not
a part of the criteria. The outline ordinance has been
given to the City Attorney and other substantiating reg-
ulations, there is a precedent in Colorado.
Commission Members stated their concerns that in affect
this would be architectural control after the fact and the
perhaps discriminatory aspect. Also mention was made that
perhaps regulations should be established to encourage the
keeping of old buildings.
Mr. Bartel explained additional regulations in the zoning
code will have to be established in order to encourage
this type of zoning.
Tabled for further review by the Commission.
