The S-4 Historic Building Districts are designed to preserve and protect buildings, places and areas of historic and architectural interest within the city and to prevent incompatible encroachments into this district.
(A) Permitted uses. No building or premises shall be used and no building shall be hereafter erected or altered within any S-4 Historic Building District unless otherwise provided in this chapter, except for a use permitted in the R-1 One-Family Dwelling District.
(B) Height, lot, yard, coverage. The same regulations shall apply to height, lot size, yard areas and percentage of lot coverage as required or permitted in the R-1 One-Family Dwelling District.
(D) Special considerations.
(1) Within this district, no building or structure shall hereafter be erected, reconstructed, altered or restored unless and until the application for the building permit shall have been approved as to exterior architectural features which are subject to public view from a public street, way or place by the Board of Appeals.
(2) No building within the historic district shall be razed, without obtaining a permit approved by the Board of Appeals, and the Board of Appeals shall be empowered to refuse a permit for any structure of the architectural or historic interest, the removal of which, in the opinion of the Board of Appeals, would be detrimental to public interest of the municipality.
