Surrounding land uses are residential (Exhibit 1). <br /> <br />Analysis of the Issues <br /> <br />At its meeting of October 4, 2007, this item was continued to November <br />1, 2007 due to a lack of quorum. <br /> <br />In March 1999, the City Council approved an ordinance authorizing <br />Historic Property Preservation Agreements (HPPA), commonly known as the <br />Mills Act contracts, for eligible historic properties. The agreement <br />provides monetary incentive to the property owner in the form of a <br />property tax reduction in exchange to the owner's voluntary commitment <br />to maintain the property in a good state of repair and to rehabilitate <br />the property as necessary to maintain its character and appearance. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT A <br />250-3 <br />
