The minutes of the February 19, 1980 meeting were distributed
and approved as submitted.
The Historic District Commission passed a resolution to the
Little Rock Board of Directors which requested that Board to
endorse the introduction of new legislation in the next session
of the General Assembly (1981) which would authorize the City
of Little Rock to more easily create and make additions to the
Historic District and simplify the architectural review process.
The third draft of the Historic District Guidelines was
presented for review. Some minor adjustments were discussed
and changes noted. Material that was not part of the previous
draft included the diagrams for the various design criteria
and the descriptions of the five (5) most common architectural
styles. To complete the guidelines, diagrams for the five (5)
styles (well restored and poorly modified) must be drafted
along with specific terms for various architectural elements, and
a summary paragraph should be included to describe additional
styles found within the area. In addition, the cover must be
designed and the entire document (Ordinance, By-laws and Guidelines)
packaged for distribution.
The Historic District Commission will hold its next meeting on
Tuesday, April 1, 1980 in the Second Floor Conference Room at
City Hall.
