A. Limitations in Variances. Variances shall not be granted to authorize a use or activity on a property that
is not otherwise expressly authorized by the provisions of this Zoning Ordinance governing that

circumstances; and
2. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the
property involved or the intended development of the property that do not apply generally to

in the General Plan.

This purpose of this section is to provide various levels of historic protection and review and to preserve
existing elements of historic resources in the City. The City's intent is to be lenient in its review of plans for
structures which have little or no historic value, or of plans for new construction, unless such plans would impair

social importance from the adverse effects of any alteration, demolition, or removal.
A. Applicability.

2. The following activities do not require approval of a certificate of appropriateness:
a. Painting, routine maintenance, or minor repair, as determined by the Director to be
consistent with existing colors and materials and not to have an adverse effect on the
integrity of the historic resource. Such work includes:
1. Alterations to the interior of the structure that do not have the possibility of
adversely affecting the integrity of the historic resource;
2. Repairing pavement or repaving flat concrete work that is not considered a
character -defining feature of the historic resource;
3. Landscaping, unless the landscaping is considered a character -defining feature
of the historic resource;
4. Construction, repair, demolition, or alterations to other structures on the
property not determined to qualify as a historic resource;
S. Re -glazing windows;
6. Replacement of incompatible windows or doors with more historically
appropriate windows or doors;
7. In -kind replacement of windows and doors on side and rear facades not readily
visible from the public right-of-way;
8. Minor changes to front and street side fences;
9. Construction, repair, demolition, or alterations to side and rear yard fences;
10. Roofing work, if there is minimal change in roof structure and exterior
appearance;
11. Foundation work, if there is minimal change in exterior appearance; and/or
12. Repair of exterior siding, if consistent in material, size, and orientation to
existing or proven historic siding.

appropriateness only after the following findings are made:
