(A) The Historic District in the city shall be exempt under this subchapter.
(B) However, the following regulations shall apply to the Historic District in the city.
(1) Local historic district boundaries shall be outlined with a “period” light post containing low wattage bulbs and a sign with the district name. Said light post shall be placed at the intersection of the historic district and shall include two light poles placed opposite from one another to represent entries into the district. The light fixtures are not intended to provide street light but rather to highlight a district’s boundaries.
(2) The light poles shall enhance the effect of the historic district neighborhood with an attempt to compliment the spirit of historic preservation. The “period” street lights shall signify properties which are subject to additional restrictions to protect property values and the architectural and historical significance of structures within the local historic district.
