(A) The city’s Historic Preservation Commission has duly convened and made investigative conclusions regarding the quality of significance in American, Idaho, or city history, architecture, archaeology, or culture that is present in the sites, buildings, structures, and objects that constitute the proposed historic district, and that they possess integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association, and:
(1) Are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of such history; or
(2) They embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction or represent the work of a master, or possess high artistic value, or that they represent a significant and distinguishable area whose components may lack individual distinction.
(B) It was further determined by the city’s Historic Preservation Commission that should any particular buildings, structures, features, sites, or surroundings be deemed to lack individual distinction or historic integrity, that the proposed historic district as a whole conveys an overall sense of the time and place of the period of which the elements of the district gained historic significance, and therefore, the historic district is significant as a whole. Said investigative findings of the city’s Historic Preservation Commission shall be hereby adopted.
