Flagstaff Historic District Update

This past Tuesday, the proposal to declare the residential area between Thorpe Park and downtown an historic district hit the City Council - again. This was the third time before the City Council as those of you following this thread know. The ordinance would establish certain height restrictions on new development in the neighborhood.

The ordinance to establish the district was given preliminary approval by a vote of 4-2. A significant majority of residents in the area supported the ordinance by signing a petition to start the process earlier this year. A vocal minority was most of who were heard from Tuesday night. The final City Council vote is scheduled for June 19.
