Historic Preservation Board Work Session Agenda Packet
[401 S. Park Avenue] This document is an agenda for the Historic Preservation Board meeting on July 1, 2026. The primary item is a preliminary discussion regarding revisions to the historic preservation ordinance and the development of new historic preservation incentives. Potential ideas to be discussed include a transfer of development rights program, adding letters to the zoning district listing on the Orange County Property Appraiser to alert buyers of potential historic properties, extending demolition delays, tax exemptions for qualifying renovations, district formation requirements, removing noticing requirements for designations and some COR reviews for quicker timelines, and conducting a survey of homeowners with historic homes on the potential designations list. The document also includes the text of Ordinance No. 3024-15, adopted in 2015, which amends Chapter 58, Article VIII of the Land Development Code concerning historic preservation, including definitions, designation procedures, and the certificate of review process. No specific projects or decisions are listed for this meeting, only discussion items. This document outlines various provisions and proposed incentives related to historic preservation within a municipality, likely Winter Park, Florida, based on the content. It details procedures for handling demolition permits for historic properties, including a 60-day consideration period for alternatives to demolition, and procedures for reconstructing destroyed historic landmarks. The document also covers tax exemptions for historic properties, requiring adherence to specific standards and a restrictive covenant. Additionally, it presents a list of proposed incentives for historic preservation, ranging from expedited permitting and fee waivers to FAR bonuses, ADU rights, property tax rebates, and the creation of a historic contractor directory and a preservation concierge service. The overarching theme is to create economic value for property owners who preserve historic structures, thereby encouraging voluntary participation in preservation efforts.
