2. SINGLE FAMILY DEMOLITION NOTIFICATION – 323 S. WASHINGTON AVE
Demolition review and notification provides an opportunity to inform residents of changes in their
neighborhood and to identify potentially important historic, architectural, and cultural resources,
pursuant to Section 14-6 of Municipal Code. This process provides for consideration of a single-family
property over fifty years of age proposed for demolition for a new single-family dwelling. Community
members receive notice about that demolition and can bring forward information about the property,
and if they believe it is eligible as a City Landmark, can take action to protect the property through
designation. City staff initiates the notification process after receiving a request for single-family
demolition via either a demolition permit or written request with preliminary construction plans. The
property is included in the next available consent calendar for the Historic Preservation Commission
(HPC). Community residents can contact staff or attend the HPC meeting either to provide information
about the property and/or nominate the property as a City Landmark under the provisions of Section
14-31 of Municipal Code.
CONSENT CALENDAR FOLLOW UP
This is an opportunity for Commission members to comment on items adopted or approved on the
Consent Calendar.
