The following groups, as well the <br />public, would also be invited t.o the roundtable discussions: City Council; <br />Planning Commission; Historiic Preservation Commission; Historical Commission; <br />Revitalization Commission; Business Retention and Development Committee; <br />Downtown Business Associai:ion; the Development Community and the Staff <br />from the Planning Department and Historic Preservation. Staff and the Historic <br />Preservation Commission arE: exploring amendments to existing preservation <br />regulations to work more cohesively and effectively with the development <br />process. Those amendments will be brought before Council this spring. <br />PUBLIC COMMENT <br />Michael Menaker, 1827 W. Choke Cherry Drive, Louisville, CO did not support <br />Resolution No. 2 and questioined who approves it and how the preservation is <br />paid for. He asked how landmarking is defined and if it included both Old Town <br />Main Street and Old Town residential properties. He suggested separate <br />incentives for business and the residential properties and amending the review <br />process. He noted the irony oaf the people who oppose imminent domain but <br />support non-consensual landimarking. <br />Annie Hughes, 1405 Garfield Avenue, Louisville, CO noted the City already has a <br />Historic Preservation Commi;>sion. <br />COUNCIL COMMENT <br />
