In establishing an HO district, the historic preservation commission and city plan
commission are authorized to propose and the city council is authorized to adopt,
district-specific development and design standards to guide development and redevelopment
within the subject HO district. When development and design standards have been approved,
each application for new construction or alteration of an existing building within
the designated HO must comply with those standards. When there are conflicts between
the standards of the underlying base zoning district and adopted HO district design/development
standards, the HO design/development standards will govern.
