      If such a determination is made, the Planning Director or designee may, upon reviewing the Pre-Application for compliance with applicable Regulations for Historic Districts and Historic Sites, approve, deny, or approve with conditions, the project. If approved, the Applicant may submit the project for a Building Permit.

  2. COMPLETE APPLICATION. The Owner and/or Applicant for any Property shall be required to submit a Historic District/Historic Site review Application for proposed work requiring a Building Permit in order to complete the work.
  3. NOTICE. Upon receipt of a Complete Application, but prior to taking action on any Historic District/Historic Site review Application, the Planning staff shall provide notice pursuant to Sections 15-1-12 and 15-1-21.
  4. PUBLIC HEARING AND DECISION.

    2. With the exception of any Application involving the Reconstruction of a Building, Accessory Building, and/or Structure on a Landmark Site, an Application associated with a Landmark Site shall be denied if the Planning Department finds that the proposed project will result in the Landmark Site no longer meeting the criteria set forth in Section 15-11-10(A)(1).
    3. An Application associated with a Significant Site shall be denied if the Planning Department finds that the proposed project will result in the Significant Site no longer meeting the criteria set forth in Section 15-11-10(A)(2).
  5. EXTENSIONS OF APPROVALS. Unless otherwise indicated, Historic District Review (HDR) approvals expire one (1) year from the date of the Final Action. The Planning Director or designee may grant an extension of an HDR approval for one (1) additional year when the Applicant is able to demonstrate no change in circumstance that would result in an unmitigated impact or that would result in a finding of non-compliance with the Park City General Plan or the Land Management Code in effect at the time of the extension request. Change of circumstance includes physical changes to the Property or surroundings. Notice shall be provided consistent with the original HDR approval per Sections 15-1-12 and 15-1-21.

15-11-16 Demolition Of Historic Buildings, Structures, And Sites

It is the intent of this and succeeding sections to preserve the Historic and architectural resources of Park City, through limitations on Demolition of Historic Buildings, Structures and Sites to the extent it is economically feasible, practical and necessary. The Demolition or removal of Historic Buildings, Structures and Sites in Park City diminishes the character of the City’s Historic District and it is strongly discouraged. Instead, the City recommends and supports preservation, renovation, adaptive reuse, Reconstruction, and relocation within the Historic District. It is recognized, however, that economic hardship and other factors not entirely within the control of a Property Owner may result in the necessary Demolition of a Historic Building, Structure or Site.

  1. DEMOLITION, RECONSTRUCTION, OR REPAIR OF HAZARDOUS BUILDINGS. If, upon review, the Chief Building Official determines the subject Building, Structure or Site to be structurally unsound, and a hazardous or dangerous Building, pursuant to Section 116.1 of the International Building Code, the Chief Building Official may order its Demolition, Reconstruction, or repair.
  2. REQUIREMENT FOR STAY OF DEMOLITION. In the absence of a finding of public hazard, the Application for Demolition shall be stayed for 180 days.

15-11-19 CAD Hearing

At the hearing, the CAD Hearing Board will review the Application pursuant to the economic hardship criteria set forth in Section 15-11-19(A) herein, and consider public input. The CAD Hearing Board may only approve Demolition of a Historic Building, Structure or Site if the Owner has presented substantial evidence that demonstrates that unreasonable economic hardship will result from denial of the CAD Application.

  1. ECONOMIC HARDSHIP CRITERIA. In order to sustain a claim of unreasonable economic hardship, the Owner shall provide information pertaining to whether the Property is capable of producing a reasonable rate of return for the Owner or incapable of beneficial Use. The City shall adopt by resolution separate standards for investment or income producing and non-income producing Properties, as recommended by the HPB. Non-income Properties shall consist of Owner occupied Single-Family Dwellings and non-income producing institutional Properties. The information required by the City may include, but not be limited to the following:
    1. Purchase date, price and financing arrangements;
    2. Current market value;
    3. Form of ownership;
    4. Type of occupancy;
    5. Cost estimates of Demolition and post-Demolition plans;
    6. Maintenance and operating costs;
    7. Costs and engineering feasibility of rehabilitation;
    8. Property tax information; and
    9. Rental rates and gross income from the Property.
    The CAD Hearing Board, upon review of the CAD Application, may request additional information as deemed appropriate.
  2. CONDUCT OF OWNER EXCLUDED. Demonstration of economic hardship by the Owner shall not be based on conditions resulting from:
    1. willful or negligent acts by the Owner; or
    2. purchasing the Property for substantially more than market value at the time of purchase; or
    3. failure to perform normal maintenance and repairs; or
    4. failure to diligently solicit and retain tenants; or
    5. failure to provide normal tenants improvements.
  3. DECISION. The CAD Hearing Board shall make written findings supporting the decision made. The CAD Hearing Board may determine that unreasonable economic hardship exists and approve the issuance of a CAD if one of the following conditions exists:
    1. For income producing Properties, the Building, Structure or Site cannot be feasibly used or rented at a reasonable rate or return in its present condition or if rehabilitated and denial of the Application would deprive the Owner of all reasonable Use of the Property; or
    2. For non-income producing Properties, the Building, Structure or Site has no beneficial Use as a residential dwelling or for an institutional Use in its present condition or if rehabilitated, and denial of the Application would deprive the Owner of all reasonable Use of the Property; and
    3. The Building, Structure or Site cannot be feasibly Reconstructed or relocated.
  4. APPROVAL. If the CAD Hearing Board approves the Application, the Owner may apply for a Demolition permit with the Building Department and proceed to Demolish the Building, Structure or Site in compliance with other regulations as they may apply. The City may, as a condition of approval, require the Owner to provide documentation of the Demolished Building, Structure or Site according to the standards of the Historic American Building Survey (HABS). Such documentation may include a complete history, photographs, floor plans, measured drawings, an archeological survey or other information as specified. The City may also require the Owner to incorporate an appropriate memorializing of the Building, Structure or Site, such as a photo display or plaque, into the proposed replacement project of the Property. Approval of a CAD shall be valid for one (1) year.
  5. DENIAL. If the CAD Hearing Board denies the Application, the Owner shall not Demolish the Building, Structure or Site, and may not re-apply for a CAD for a period of three (3) years from the date of the CAD Hearing Board’s final decision, unless substantial changes in circumstances have occurred other than the re-sale of the Property or those caused by the negligence or intentional acts of the Owner. It shall be the responsibility of the Owner to stabilize and maintain the Property so as not to create a structurally unsound, hazardous, or dangerous Building, as identified in Section 116.1 of the International Building Code. The City may provide the owner with information regarding financial assistance for the necessary rehab or repair work, as it becomes available.
  6. APPEAL. The City or any Persons adversely affected by any decision of the CAD Hearing Board may petition the District Court in Summit County for a review of the decision. In the petition, the plaintiff may only allege that the Officer’s decision was arbitrary, capricious, or illegal. The petition is barred unless it is filed within thirty (30) days after the date of the CAD Hearing Board’s decision.
