Center Street Historic District zone change, Ordinance 25-18 (public hearing)
Approved · 3-2
The council adopted Option One, the cleanup map only, rejecting the full expansion the Historic Preservation Committee recommended. Over 80 percent of comments opposed expansion; speakers raised façade costs and short notice. Staff said federal tax credits apply only to properties on the National Register. Council Member Amy Anderson worried residents did not understand a vote would occur; Council Member Mark Anderson said many oppose extending the boundary west; Vice Chair Johnson favored Option One now with review in a few years.
