Session 1577, Minutes September 14, 1992 Page 4 In response to Mr. Price, Mr. Goldman said the previous owner (also a church) was required to oonsult the Ccmnission, am to their credit, followed cx:mnis- sion reccmne.rxlations am maintained the character of the building. As liai- son to the Ccmnission at that time, Mrs. Sdu.nnan said the church received ex- cellent advice fran Ccmnission members, who are experts in this field. Ms. Turner said it was not in the church's interest to hann the building, but it has not been designated an historic lammark am it was unfair to put this obligation on them. Mr. Schoaner noted the City's CaTprehensive Plan requires that builc:lin;Js of historic interest be identified even if not naninated to the National Histor- ic Register. He said oonsulting with the Ccmnission would not interfere with the operation of the building. '!here was brief discussion al:x:lUt historic designation, am Mr. Goldman said that was not being recammen1ed, but only that the church seek advice fran the Historic Preservation Ccmnission before chan;Jes are made. Mr. Price strongly objected am said the City had no right to tell the church how to use its building, even if the statement is not bin:ling. Mr. Schoaner pointed out that the CaTprehensive Plan gives the City authority to do this, but in this case it is not a requireIoont, but a ~tion. Mrs. '!horrpson lOOVed approval of all oorrlitions except the statement suggest- ing that the Historic Preservation Ccmnission be oonsulted before changes are made. Mr. Price seoorrled the notion. Mr. Schoaner then lOOVed to amerrl the notion by including that statement. Mrs. Schuman seoorrled the notion. '!he vote on the aroorrlment was as follows: eouncil.meJnbers Schuman, Schoomer and Mayor Majerus voted Aye; eouncil.meJnbers Price, '!horrpson am Wagner voted Nay. '!he notion failed three to three. Mrs. Schuman asked Mrs. '!hcmp;on if her notion included the oorrlition that any use other than those nonnally considered religious services am programs would require approval of a corrlitional use aroorrlment. Mrs. '!horrpson said it did. All voted Aye on the original notion.
