    Yalecrest-Upper Yale Local Historic District

    Discussed

    Planning staff briefed the Council on applying the H-Historic Overlay to 24 homes along both sides of Yale Avenue (about 1802 to 1885 East), creating a local historic district and updating the 2005 Yalecrest survey. Council members discussed delays caused by the contributing status of three homes, whether small districts are justified, effects of designation on residents and affordability, ADUs and duplexes (historic districts do not prevent ADUs, but lot size and base zoning apply), the effect of the proposed R-1 changes, and who can initiate historic district petitions.
