of the City in which the Board of Aldermen finds, by ordinance, reviews of
the effects of demolitions on the area are in the public interest. Prior to

the ward in which the proposed district is located shall have requested the
Cultural Resources Office and the Preservation Board to assess the
architectural and/or cultural quality of the proposed district, and (2)
within forty-five (45) days thereafter the Cultural Resources Office and the
Preservation Board shall have reported its findings to the Planning
Commission and the Board of Aldermen. The Cultural Resources Office and the
Preservation Board shall assess the proposed district as having (1) high
historic district potential; (2) possible historic district potential; (3)
low historic district potential; (4) demolitions within the last two years
in excess of the average for similar areas in the City. Districts which are
reported as being in categories (1), (2) or (4) may be designated
Preservation Review Districts. Preservation Review District ordinances may
be repealed by ordinance at any time without Cultural Resources Office or
Preservation Board action. 24.36.020 Public hearing required--Notice. No ordinance designating a Preservation Review District shall be adopted
