City of Bloomington, Indiana – Kerry Thomson, Mayor

City Council

2016 Ordinance 16-02

TO AMEND TITLE 8 OF THE BLOOMINGTON MUNICIPAL CODE, ENTITLED “HISTORIC PRESERVATION AND PROTECTION” TO ESTABLISH A HISTORIC DISTRICT – Re: 305 East Vermilya Avenue Historic District (Bloomington Historic Preservation Commission, Petitioner)

2016 Amendment 01a (Adopted)

Amendment 01a

This amendment is sponsored by Councilmember Piedmont-Smith. It makes two changes to the whereas clauses of this ordinance. The first change inserts a new whereas clause highlighting the rating of this property as “Outstanding” on State Historic Architectural and Archeological Research Database (SHAARD). The second change amends the sixth whereas clause to avoid the implication that the Council automatically approves designation recommendations forwarded from the Historic Preservation Commission.

Note: Am 01 was revised after the Committee of the Whole and re-designated Am 1a. The revisions insert the new Whereas clause as the fifth of seven such clauses and refers to the Report on Proposed Designation as the report in order to be consistent with other references to it in other Whereas clauses.
