§ 13.48.320. Applicability.  


Latest version.
  • Whenever proceedings for designation of a landmark or an historic district have been commenced under this chapter, no subsequent application for a building permit to do any work for which an HP permit would be required under this chapter on a proposed landmark or an historic district filed under any other provision of this Code, which is filed after the date that the application for designation has been filed or proceedings for initiation of designation have been commenced pursuant to this chapter, shall be approved while proceedings are pending on such designation. However, while designation is pending, the applicant may apply for and be granted an HP permit in the same manner and subject to the same requirements as if such designation had already been granted except that the provisions of Chapter 17.70 of Title 17 of this Code (the historical building ordinance) shall not be applicable unless the building or structure is otherwise a qualified historical building within the meaning of Section 17.70.030. If at any time after the application for the HP permit has been filed or the HP permit has been issued, said designation is finally denied, the HP permit will no longer be required; however, the fees paid for an HP permit for a proposed landmark or a structure within a proposed historic district shall not be refundable upon denial of designation.
