Kevin Kelly seconded the motion. Motion carried. Demolition Application Demolition application for 713 Washington Street was reviewed. Multiple organizations had previously met with property owner discussing other alternatives to demolition. Property had previously surveyed as contributing structure by the Urbana Group, although the property is not listed on the National Register of Historic Places. HPC determined that the property is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to our history; property associated with the lives of persons significant in our past; property embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period or method of construction, or represents a work of a master, or possesses high artistic values; property has a visual or spatial relationship to designated or potential landmarks or districts; and property appears to be practical to rehabilitate. Jane Moore moved that the demolition will have an “adverse effect” and the permit is not approved by HPC. Kevin Kelly seconded the motion. Motion carried. New Business None.
