(305)947-0606 City Hall <br /> r,r no om o' (305) 949-3113 Fax <br /> P O/ SON <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Commission <br /> FROM: Hans Ottinot. City Attorney <br /> DATE: 3/19/2015 <br /> RE: Ordinance amending Chapter 171 of the City Code <br /> RECOMMENDATION: <br /> It is recommended that the City Commission approve the proposed <br /> Ordinance amending Chapter 171 of the City Code. <br /> REASONS: <br /> Chapter 171 of the City Code vests the City's Historic Preservation <br /> Board with authority to recommend to the City Commission that <br /> certain properties be designated as historic landmarks with the <br /> consent of the City Commission. Chapter 171 of the City Code <br /> includes specific definitions for a "historic landmark" or "historic <br /> landmark district" that may be recommended for historic site <br /> designation. However, Chapter 171 does not specifically define <br /> "objects" that may also be considered for historic designation. Over <br /> the years, the City has collected numerous historic objects from hotels <br /> located on motel row. These objects include the horse and carriage <br /> located at Margolis Park. <br /> The City's Historic Preservation Board is seeking to designate the <br /> objects collected as historic. In order to begin this formal designation <br /> process, it is necessary that Chapter 171 of the City Code be <br /> amended to include a specific definition of "objects". The attached <br /> proposed Ordinance defines "objects" based on language from the <br /> Code of Federal Regulations. Examples of an "object" include <br /> boundary marker, monument, milepost, fountain, sculpture, and <br /> statuary. <br /> httpl/sirrryisies.ronaagerda.cam/CwerSheet.aspx?ItemID=1591 1/2 <br />
