Pursuant to City of Louisville <br /> Ordinance the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC)has the authority to review any remodel of a building over the age of 50 <br /> years that includes the demolition of more than 50%of the roof line to determine if the building may be of historical value. Boulder <br /> County Assessor's Records show that the building in question at 1237 LaFarge Avenue was built in 1948. <br /> As established by ordinance, a Commission committee has twenty-one (21)days from the date the application was referred to the <br /> HPC (October 15)to review your request and inspect the building.The Commission committee then has an additional sixteen (9) <br /> days (October 24)to make a determination as to the building's historic significance. <br /> If a member of the committee determines that there is probable cause to believe that the building may be eligible for designation <br /> as an individual landmark,the issuance of the permit shall be stayed for up to sixty(60)days from the date it was referred to the <br /> HPC (November 23), and the permit shall be forwarded to the entire Commission for a public hearing. <br /> At that public hearing, if the Commission feels the building is of sufficient historical value to the community, the Commission has <br /> the authority to stay the application for up to one hundred eighty(180)days from the date the application was referred to the HPC. <br /> A copy of this determination, including the reasons why the building may be eligible for designation, shall be provided to the <br /> property owner within fourteen days (14)of the determination. <br /> The purpose of the review is to prevent the loss of buildings that may have historical or architectural significance to the community <br /> and to provide the time necessary to initiate designation as an individual landmark or to consider alternatives for the building. <br /> I have attached additional information for your review and will keep you apprised of the process as the Commission moves <br /> forward. Please contact me at 303.335.4536 or muthm@ci.louisville.co.us should you have any questions. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> MERIDY77HMUTH <br /> PUBLIC RELATIONS MANAGER <br /> CITY OF LOUISVILLE <br /> 303.3 35.4536 <br /> 303.335.4550 FAX <br /> mutlun@ci.louisvillaco.us <br /> nai'ai'nnS <br />
