BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
Pursuant to the Historic Preservation LDRs, Section 4.586.D. Review Criteria, and in addition to other applicable provisions of Division 13 and the requirements of the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings, Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings, and Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, the Board is tasked with evaluating the application based on the following criteria:
* Designation Criteria: Is the building, object, or structure of such interest or quality that it would reasonably meet national, state, or local criteria for designation?
* Design, Craftsmanship, Materials: Is the building, object, or structure of such design, craftsmanship, or material that it could be reproduced only with great difficulty and/or expense?
* Rarity: Is the building, object, or structure one of the last remaining examples of its kind in the neighborhood, the county, or the region?
* Historic Character: Does the building, object, or structure contribute significantly to the historic character of a designated district?
* Public Welfare and Study: Would retention of the building, object, or structure promote the general welfare of the county by providing an opportunity for study of local prehistory, history, architecture, and design, or by developing an understanding of the importance and value of a particular culture and heritage?
* Future Use and Impact: Are there definite plans for reuse of the property if the proposed demolition is carried out, and what will be the effect of those plans on the character of the surrounding area?
