The notification and public <br /> hearing measures proposed are the same as those currently required for designating historic <br /> landmarks. <br /> The proposed amendment was presented at the May 23 public hearing. No citizen comments <br /> were received. The Board of Commissioners referred the item to the Historic Preservation <br /> Commission for a recommendation to be returned no sooner than August 8, 1994. <br /> The Planning Staff recommended approval of the proposed amendment to the Historic <br /> Preservation Ordinance. <br /> MOTION: White moved to recommend approval of the proposed amendment to the <br /> Historic Preservation Ordinance.
