§ 157.35 INTERIM PROTECTION.
   (A)   When submitting a map to the Town Council, the Commission may declare one or more buildings or structures that are classified and designated as historic on the map to be under interim protection.
   (B)   Not more than two working days after declaring a building, structure, or site under interim protection under this section, the Commission shall, by personal delivery or first class mailing, provide or forward notice to the owner or occupant of the building structure or site with a written notice of the declaration. This written notice shall:
      (1)   Cite the authority of the Commission to put the building, structure or site under interim protection under this section;
      (2)   Explain the effect of putting the building, structure, or site under interim protection; and
      (3)   Indicate that the interim protection is temporary.
   (C)   A building or structure put under interim protection under division (A) above remains under interim protection until the map is:
      (1)   Submitted to; and
      (2)   Approved or rejected by ordinance of the Town Council.
   (D)   While a building, structure, or site is under interim protection:
      (1)   The building, structure, or site may not be demolished or moved; and
      (2)   The exterior appearance of the building, structure, or site may not be conspicuously changed by:
         (a)   Addition; or
         (b)   Reconstruction; or
         (c)   Alteration.
   (E)   The Commission may approve a certificate of appropriateness at any time during the interim protection, provided the proposed change meets the criteria for considering effect of actions on historic buildings in § 157.27 and any proposed preservation guidelines prepared for the building, structure, or site, but the certificate of appropriateness shall have no effect, and no action may be taken pursuant thereto, unless the map including the building, structure or site is approved by the Town Council.
