Board of Aldermen — 10/24/17 Page 8
Alderman Schoneman
| just wanted to address that the legal department took a look at the enabling legislation for the Historic District
Commission and understood what their purview was and applied that here. It just says that if any building permit
or demolition permit which would come within the scope of the review of the Historic District Commission for that
part of Greeley Park deemed applicable, they will ask them for an opinion. It won’t slow the process down.
They are given 30 days according to this resolution to come up with something. It is just asking somebody’s
opinion, folks who we have entrusted with the historical view of the city.
A roll call was taken which resulted as follows:
Yea: Ald. Clemons, Ald. Schoneman, Ald. Melizzi-Golja,
Ald. LeBrun, Ald. Moriarty, Ald. O’Brien, Ald. Lopez
Ald. McCarthy 8
Nay: Ald. Wilshire, Ald. Dowd, Ald. Caron, Ald. Siegel
Ald. McGuinness, 5

AMENDING THE COMPOSITION AND PURPOSE OF THE DOWNTOWN IMPROVEMENTS
COMMITTEE
Given its second reading;
MOTION BY ALDERMAN CLEMONS FOR FINAL PASSAGE OF O-17-041
ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Moriarty
This probably isn’t a problem, but | wonder if you could just remind me what this does.
President McCarthy
It adds two members to the Downtown Improvement Committee and two alternates.
Alderman Siegel
| believe it also defines where they come from, correct?
Alderman Clemons
A portion of it does. It says that they have to be from downtown, one of the appointments. They either have to
be a business owner or a resident.
MOTION CARRIED
Ordinance O-17-041 declared duly adopted.
