HRD No. 2012 -01 January 24, 2013 Page 5 This section considers the City purchase of the Sexlinger site as a means to preserve it as a historic resource. Although it is not required, the HRC may suggest to the City Council that the Sexlinger site be purchased by the City. Should the HRC wish to suggest this course of action, a sample resolution is attached for your consideration (Exhibit 6). Assuming the current processing schedule for the project, if the HRC adopts the attached resolution, the City Council would then need to consider taking action on the potential purchase either prior to or concurrent with, the regularly scheduled Council meeting of March 4, 2013. At this meeting, the Council is scheduled to consider the tentative tract map and lot width variances associated with the proposed development of the site, as well as the certification of the Draft EIR. Summary and Next Steps: Once the requirements of SAMC Section 30 -7 are complete within the required 240 days from the date of application submittal, or at the conclusion of the environmental review period, whichever is longer, a demolition permit must be issued. Prior to the issuance of the demolition permit, the applicant shall provide, to the reasonable satisfaction of the commission, and at the applicant's sole cost, complete photo - documentation of archival quality and historical profile of the structure to be demolished, prior to the scheduling of the demolition. The Environmental Impact Report (EIR), tract map and variance necessary for the residential project to be approved will be considered by the Planning Commission at a duly noticed public hearing on February 11, 2013.
