Re: Pre-application (PRE2011-08) - 179 Harrison Avenue
Dear Mr. Babanghli:
Thank you for your submittal of a preliminary application to request approval to demolish an
existin;; single-family residence currently listed on the City's Historic Resource Inventory. Your
demolition request was heard by the Historic Preservation Commission at a public hearing held
on November 16, 2011.
The Historic Preservation Board unanimously recommended approval of the requested residential
demolition, subject to the following recommendations:
• The applicant contact a recycling and/or salvage company that specializes in historic
building materials prior to demolition to ensure re-use of the existing materials.
• The Board recommended that the applicant construct a craftsman inspired single-story
residence that complements the built environment.
Please contact the Building Department at your earliest convenience to obtain a Demolition
Permit application. Please be advised that the application process to demolish a structure
includes obtaining authorization from multiple outside agencies with extended review periods.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at (408) 866-2142 or via email at
stevep@cityofcampbell.coin to discuss these comments.
Sincerely,
Steve Prosser
Associate Planner
