224 S. Kendrick St. Certificate of No Effect

The Certificate of No Effect application was reviewed and approved with conditions by the Heritage Preservation Officer.

The Our Lady of Guadalupe Church and convent buildings are located within the Landmark Overlay Zone. The Our Lady of Guadalupe Church is individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places and the church and convent buildings are contributors to the Flagstaff Southside Historic District. 

This project proposes reroofing in-kind for the convent building. Reroofing in-kind is considered a minor alteration that has a limited impact in relation to the total cultural resource and was determined to meet the criteria for a Certificate of No Effect. However, per Ordinance 2019-29 which established the Landmark Overlay for this property, a restoration plan must be developed for the convent and completing this requirement was added as a condition of approval. Per the Ordinance's Section 4 (below), additional City permits for the property, unless for life/safety purposes, may not be issued until the restoration plan is approved. The restoration plan will be reviewed by the Heritage Preservation Commission when developed.

SECTION 4.    That, within 3 years of enactment of this ordinance, the Owner shall submit to the Heritage Preservation Commission and receive approval for a "restoration plan" to restore the historic integrity of the former convent on the Property and to provide for the life/safety of the public and the building's occupants.  The submission must be reviewed by the State Historic Preservation Office prior to its preservation to the Commission. The Heritage Preservation Commission's decision will be the only approval required for the restoration plan and will be appealable to the Planning and Zoning Commission. In the event that the Owner fails to obtain an approved restoration plan with the 3-year time frame, the LO designation will remain on the property, but the owner will not receive any City permits for the property, unless for life/safety purposes, until the restoration plan is approved.
