PACHECO, DIRECTOR TITLE AN ORDINANCE DESIGNATING THE WILLIAM L. ANDERSON HOUSE, 1005 LAKE AVENUE, AS A LOCAL HISTORIC LANDMARK ISSUE Should City Council designate The William L. Anderson House as a local Pueblo Historic Landmark, pursuant to the Historic Preservation Code, Chapter 14, Title IV of the Pueblo Municipal Code? RECOMMENDATION Adoption of Ordinance, as recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission at their June 8, 2011 Regular Meeting and the Historic Preservation Commission at their Regular Meeting held on April 14, 2011. BACKGROUND The home qualifies for its short but significant association with William L. Anderson, President of Iron City Fuel Company, a coal fuel company, and also qualifies for nomination under Criteria 2a and b as a good example of a late Queen Anne residence. The property has served as a residence since its construction in 1890. The house is significant as a unique and well preserved Queen Anne residence with a later Classical Revival front porch, an architectural type which is common in South Pueblo due to staggered building booms of 1888-1893 and then again from 1900-1910. Findings of staff, the Historic Preservation Commission, and the Planning and Zoning Commission are attached. FINANCIAL IMPACT No financial impact.
