RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their March 11, 2009 Regular Meeting, voted 5 -0 to recommend approval. BACKGROUND Presently, the Ordinance specifies that the Pueblo Architectural Review Board (PARB) is comprised of seven (7) members. These members include one (1) tenant or real property owner from each zone district governed by the Board (HB, HARP -1 and HARP - 2 zone districts), one (1) architect or other design professional and the building official from the Pueblo Regional Building Department. This specifically lists a total five (5) members, leaving the remaining two positions undefined. The new Board composition will provide clarification regarding the two (2) non - defined positions, by defining all seven (7) positions. The ordinance changes the composition to be two (2) tenant or real property owners from the HB Zone District, two (2) tenant or real property owners from any of the three HARP Zone Districts (HARP -1, HARP -2 and HARP -3), one (1) architect or other design professional, the building official and one (1) at -large City of Pueblo resident. On May 31, 2009, due to resignations and expiring terms, the Board will be comprised of only two (2) property owners of the HB Zone District, and the building official. The remaining four (4) seats will be vacant as of May 31, 2009. FINANCIAL IMPACT None.
