Ordinance 15-25

This ordinance (Ord 15-25) amends the List of Designated Historic Districts in the City of Bloomington be establishing the Courthouse Square Historic District. In recommending this designation, the Bloomington Historic Preservation Commission (“Commission”) relied on a survey; held a public hearing on May 14, 2015; and submitted a map and accompanying report to the Council. The map describes the boundaries of the district, classifies the total number of properties within the district, and is approved by the ordinance. The report demonstrates how this district meets the necessary criteria. Local designation will provide the protection needed to ensure that these properties are preserved.
