or aesthetic interest, and by virtue of that may have significant
value to the community. It is the intent of this chapter to prevent
the demolition of such significant buildings unless it is needed for
the development of a new building and after having a noticed public
hearing and a discretionary approval.
(Ord. 5428 § 1, 2014)

B.
The list of properties contained in subsection A may be amended in the manner set forth in Chapter 19.86, Zoning Ordinance Amendments, of this title with the following additional provision:
1.
Any
person may request the listing of a building by submitting an application
to the Planning Manager. The Planning Manager or City Council may
also initiate such proceedings on its own motion. The application
shall include a statement explaining the reason(s) the building should
be listed.
(Ord. 5428 § 1, 2014; Ord. 6198 § 1, 2020; Ord. 6538 § 19, 2022)
A.
Permits Required. No person shall demolish or cause to be demolished any significant building without first obtaining approval of a Design Review Permit or Design Review Permit modification in the manner set forth in Chapter 19.76 of this title, unless the building is exempt from such permit, as described in subsection D.
B.
Findings for Demolition. In addition to the required findings
for approval of a Design Review Permit or Design Review Permit modification,
all of the following findings shall be made, based on substantial
evidence.
1.
The
proposed development could not occur without demolition of the significant
building.
2.
The
proposed development will provide a substantial public benefit mitigating
the loss of the significant building.
3.
To
the extent feasible, mitigation measures have been incorporated into
the project to reduce the effect of the demolition.
4.
The
technological feasibility of maintaining the significant building
and the economic cost of building restoration would preclude the owner
from making any reasonable use of the property.
C.
Mitigations for Demolition. Mitigations for the demolition
of a significant building may include, but are not limited to, the
following: preservation in place; relocation to another location on
the same site; relocation to another site; reuse of architectural
elements or building materials from the building; and archival photographic
study of the building.
D.
Exemption for Dangerous Building. The requirement to obtain a Design Review Permit approval shall not apply to any significant building that the chief building inspector determines is dangerous to the health and safety of the building occupants, neighbors or public, pursuant to Roseville Municipal Code, Chapter 16.35. The chief building inspector shall set forth in writing the reasons for the determination that the significant building is dangerous to the health and safety of the building occupants, neighbors or public, and therefore immediate demolition is warranted. Upon receipt of notice from the chief building inspector that the dangerous building has been demolished, the Planning Manager shall process an amendment to remove it from the list of significant buildings.
