When a landmark poses a threat <br />to the public safety, and demolition is the only alternative, documentation <br />by way of photographs, measured drawings, or other descriptive methods shall <br />be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or <br />agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this <br />documentation. <br />E. 'Moving <br />The moving of landmarks is discouraged, however, moving is preferred to <br />demolition. When moving is necessary, the owner of the landmark must apply <br />to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. <br />F. Signs <br />No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the <br />structure. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit, <br />a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. Billboards and supergraphics <br />will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be <br />permitted per business. <br />Group B Standards <br />The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the <br />extent of any proposed treatment, renovation, or addition to a historic landmark. <br />The Commission will require drawings, plans, specification, and/or samples where <br />appropriate. <br />A.

Such improvements include <br />reroofing, glazing, or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that <br />can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. <br />A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its <br />environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly <br />alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes <br />may not require a Building Permit, a Certificate of Appropriateness may <br />be necessary. The Commission should review the proposed treatment for <br />character and style consistency with the original surfaces. <br />C.
