TITLE:

Consideration and Adoption of Ordinance No. 2021-04: An ordinance of the City Council of the City of Flagstaff amending the Flagstaff Zoning Map to rezone approximately .82 acres of real property generally located at 922 E Route 66 by adding a Landmarks Overlay District designation to the historic sign only, within an existing Highway Commercial District zoning classification

4) City Clerk reads Ordinance No. 2021-04 by title only (if approved above)
5) Adopt Ordinance No. 2021-04

Executive Summary:

This is a direct to ordinance zoning application for adding a Historic overlay so that the project can take advantage of Flagstaff's Historic Sign and Facade Grant program to rehabilitate the remaining portion of the historic Route 66 sign of the Whispering Winds Motel and to restore the missing upper portion of the sign as it appeared historically. The Overlay also allows for the sign to vary from current sign requirements to archive its original historic configuration.

Financial Impact:

Sign grant program does not use general fund.

Policy Impact:

Project meets Heritage Preservation requirements and ordinance provisions.

Connection to PBB Key Community Priorities/Objectives & Regional Plan:
