Applications will not <br />be considered if there is written opposition to such district formation from at <br />least fifty -one (51) percent of the property owners within the district <br />boundaries. When calculating the district's owner percentage, each property <br />will receive one vote. <br />It shall require the consent of at least 25% of the owners in a proposed district for <br />an application to be considered under the Designation with Owner's Consent <br />section.

Noncontributing elements will be evaluated for their magnitude <br />of impact by considering their size, scale, design, location, and /or information <br />potential. <br />District boundaries will be defined by visual changes, historical documentation <br />of different associations or patterns of development, or evidence of changes <br />4 <br />
