Section 3.930
Establishing a Historic Preservation
(HP) District.

A.

An application to establish Historic Preservation Districts shall be filed as provided by Section 3.800.

B.

The Historic Preservation Officer shall compile and transmit to the Historic Preservation Commission a report on the property in the application, including the location, condition, age, historical features, and other relevant features and information, with a recommendation to grant or to deny the application and the reasons for the recommendation.

C.

The Historic Preservation Commission shall set a date for public hearing on the application. Notice of the hearing shall be sent by first class mail to the property owner(s) and to the applicant at least fifteen (15) days prior to the hearing. The notice shall clearly state the implications of historic preservation zoning to the property owner(s). Notice of the hearing shall be posted fifteen (15) days prior to the hearing, on or near the property in one (1) or more locations so that the notice is visible to persons living or working in the neighborhood and to persons passing through the neighborhood. If the application to establish a Historic Preservation District is filed by someone other than the property owner(s), written notice shall be sent by first class mail to the property owner(s) within ten (10) days of application having been made.

D.

The Historic Preservation Commission shall evaluate each parcel of property within an area that is included in the application for a demonstrated quality of significance in local, regional, state or national history, architecture, archaeology, engineering or culture, and integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association according to the following criteria:

1.

It is associated with events or persons that have made significant contribution to the broad patterns of Glendale's history; and/or

2.

It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period or method of construction or that represent the work of a master or that possess high artistic values; and/or

3.

It has yielded or may be likely to yield information important in the understanding of the prehistory or history of the City of Glendale; and/or

4.

It is at least fifty (50) years old, or has achieved significance within the past fifty (50) years if the property is of exceptional importance.

E.

The Historic Preservation Commission shall, when applying the evaluation criteria in Paragraph D above, draw the boundaries of a Historic Preservation District as carefully as possible to ensure that:

1.

The district contains documented historic, architectural or archaeological resources;

2.

The district boundaries coincide with documented historic boundaries such as early roadways, canals, subdivision plats, or property lines;

3.

The district boundaries coincide with logical physical or manmade features and reflect recognized neighborhood or area boundaries; and

4.

Other, non-historic resources or vacant land is included where necessary to create appropriate boundaries. Inclusion of these non-historic resources is important to ensure the maintenance of the historic streetscape and avoid insensitive construction and demolitions adjacent to contributing properties.

F.

The Historic Preservation Commission shall also review proposed exterior design guidelines for the district to ensure that distinctive features will be preserved and enhanced. The design guidelines shall address height, proportions, scale, materials, relationship of building masses and spaces, roof shape, and site improvements, such as landscaping, parking, and signage, as they relate to the identity of the Historic Preservation District. Exterior paint colors will not be included in these guidelines. These guidelines shall be adopted at the time of designation.

G.

Following the hearing, the Historic Preservation Commission shall transmit to the Planning Commission the HP Commission's decision, report, and recommendations.

H.

The process for establishing a Historic Preservation District shall then proceed in accordance with Section 3.800.

I.

The procedure to remove the Historic Preservation District designation from property shall be the same as that required to establish it.
