City Attorney by <br /> DATE: February 19, 2015 - <br /> RE: Ordinance amending Chapter 171 of the City Code <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> It is recommended that the City Commission approve the proposed Ordinance amending Chapter <br /> 171 of the City Code. <br /> REASONS <br /> Chapter 171 of the City Code vests the City's Historic Preservation Board with authority to <br /> recommend to the City Commission that certain properties be desienated as historic landmarks <br /> with the consent of the City Commission. Chapter 171 of the City Code includes specific <br /> definitions for a `historic landmark" or "historic landmark district" that may be recommended <br /> for historic site designation. However; Chapter 171 does not specifically define "objects" that <br /> may also be considered for historic designation. Over the years, the City has collected numerous <br /> historic objects from hotels located on motel row. These objects include the horse and carriage <br /> located at Margolis Park. <br /> The City's Historic Presen'ation Board is seeking to designate the objects collected as historic. <br /> In order to begin this formal designation process, it is necessary that Chapter 171 of the City <br /> Code be amended to include a specific definition of"objects". The attached proposed Ordinance <br /> defines "objects" based on language from the Code of Federal Regulations. Examples of an <br /> "object" include boundary marker, monument, milepost, fountain, sculpture, and statuary. <br /> This Ordinance was requested by the Historic Presen'ation Board. <br />
