TO AMEND TITLE 8 OF THE BLOOMINGTON MUNICIPAL CODE, ENTITLED “HISTORIC PRESERVATION AND PROTECTION” TO ESTABLISH A HISTORIC DISTRICT - Re: 1033 S. Ballantine Road Historic District (Nathan Silverstein House)

This ordinance amends Chapter 8.20 of the Bloomington Municipal Code entitled “The List of Designated Historic Districts” in order to designate “Nathan Silverstein House – 1033 S. Ballantine Road” as a historic district. Eric and Lee Sandweiss sought this action and after a public hearing on January 12, 2017, the Historic Preservation Commission (“Commission”) recommended that the structure be designated historic with a rating as “Contributing” based upon certain historical and architectural criteria set forth in Title 8 of the Bloomington Municipal Code entitled “Historic Preservation and Protection.” Historic designation of a property under Title 8 of the Bloomington Municipal Code provides for the Commission or staff to approve a Certificate of Appropriateness before conspicuous changes to the exterior of sites and structures may be made and, thereby, helps assure that the historic significance of properties is preserved.
