Consider for recommendation to the Board of Commissioners authorizing staff to prepare an ordinance to add the two contributing buildings on these properties to the Historic Resource Inventory, as Class 2 resources.

 

On February 26, 2018, the Historical Commission recommended adding these structures, currently 503 and 507 Old Lancaster Road, in the Haverford Station Historic District, to the Historic Resource Inventory as Class 2 resources, as requested by the applicant, in accordance with criteria 1, 8, and 10.

PUBLIC COMMENT
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

This application is connected to the development proposal reviewed and conditionally approved by HARB. In order for the development to take place, the contributing resources need to be listed in the Historic Resource Inventory. Despite being in a historic district, which is usually the domain of the HARB, the Township Code states that only the Historical Commission has the ability to recommend the addition of resources to the Historic Resource Inventory.
