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.
