1240.01 PURPOSE.
The I Institutional District establishes locations where existing institutional uses and structures are permitted to be used or adaptively re-used provided that their current character is maintained. This requires avoiding demolition and preserving both the buildings and their grounds. Any changes to an institutional use or structure shall require special review as described within this chapter and shall reflect the historic character of the use or structure. Such changes also shall not negatively affect the overall character of the neighborhood.
