Historic Preservation Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />April 18, 2016 <br />Page 6of11 <br />Haley asks who moved it, the City or the developer. <br />Trice says she doesn't know. <br />Chuck Thomas asks if there was another interested party regarding this structure. <br />Haley says Scott Simkus was the interested party. <br />Chuck Thomas says it appears that the last action we can do is to do a stay. That <br />exhausts our ability to do anything with this property. I agree that it is a significant <br />structure, both historically and culturally, and every effort should be made to encourage <br />its relocation. <br />Chuck Thomas makes a motion to recommend a full stay on 1800 Plaza Drive, <br />Louisville, CO of 180 days be placed to explore the possibility ocation, seconded by <br />Fasick.
