• Subsections R105.1 Required and 105.1 Required of the International Residential Code, 2012 edition, and International Building Code, 2012 edition, respectively, are amended by adding the following provision to both subsections: For structures which have been in existence for more than 75 years or which are part of historically significant sites designated as such by resolution of the board of commissioners, no permit for demolition or removal shall be issued until a waiting period of 90 days from the date of application for such permit. Such waiting period shall be enforced pursuant to the general police powers of the city. During such waiting period, the city will have the opportunity to determine whether its eminent domain powers should be exercised as to the affected site for development of a public park or other means of public enjoyment which would preserve the intrinsic aesthetic and historical qualities of the site. The waiting period may be waived by the city manager in the event of exigent circumstances. In determining the appropriateness of the waiver, the city manager may consider any hazardous condition of the structure and the potential for gross injustice to the property owner.
