Title
Public Hearing regarding the proposed amendment to the Boundaries of the Historic Properties Map.  
Presented by Bradford D. Townsend, Planning & Zoning Director
Body
Item Summary:
The Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) started the process of expanding the historic district boundaries to include 79, 83 and 85 Webb Street.  The Georgia State Historic Preservation Division supports the historic district boundary expansion.  One of the requirements of Section 4.7.3 of the Roswell Zoning Ordinance is for the HPC and City Council to hold a public hearing on the proposed amendment to the Historic Properties map.  The first reading of the Historic District Expansion Ordinance will be held at the City Council Meeting on May 13, 2013. The second reading will be held on May 29, 2013.
 
Committee or Staff Recommendation:
Due to their proximity to the historic district, specifically Canton Street, staff recommends the expansion of the historic district boundaries by including the three properties on Webb Street.
