A. Any person may nominate a building, structure, site,
object or district for inclusion in the Edmonds Register of

nominations. In its designation decision, the Commission
shall consider the Edmonds Historic Inventory and the
City's Comprehensive Plan.

shall include the UTM reference and all features -interior
and exterior -and outbuildings which contribute to its
designation.
C. In the case of districts, the characteristics of the
district which justifies its designation; and a list of all
properties including features, structures, sites and objects
which contribute to the designation of the district.
D. The Historic Preservation Commission shall
consider the merits of the nomination, according to the
criteria in Section 20.45.010 and according to the
nomination review standards established in rules, at a
public meeting. Adequate notice will be given to the
public, the owner(s) and the authors of the nomination, if
different, and lessees, if any, of the subject property prior to
the public meeting according to standards for public
meetings established in rules and in compliance with
Chapter 42.30 RCW, Open Public Meetings Act. Such
notice shall include publication in the City's official
newspaper of general circulation and posting of the
property. If the Commission finds that the nominated
property is eligible for the Edmonds Register of Historic

City Council that the property be listed in the register with
owner's consent. In the case of historic districts, the
Commission shall recommend, and the City Council shall
adopt by ordinance, a percentage of property owners which
is deemed adequate to demonstrate owner consent. The
public, property owner(s) and the authors of the
nomination, if different, and lessees, if any, shall be
notified of the listing.

Historic Places shall be recorded on official zoning records
with an "HR" (for Historic Register) designation. This
designation shall not change or modify the -underlying zone
classification.
Section 2. Severability. If any section, sentence, clause or phrase of this
ordinance should be held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a court of competent jurisdiction,

cally delegated to the City legislative body, is not subject to referendum, and shall take effect
