Title
Request for designation of the Frank Farm Historic District; 1290 E. Auburn; 1304 E. Auburn, 1344 & 1356 E. Auburn

Body
Whereas, 1290 E. Auburn Road (Parcel Identification Number 15-36-126-004); 1304 E. Auburn Road (Parcel Identification Number 15-36-126-005); and 1344 and 1356 E. Auburn Road (Parcel Identification Number 15-36-126-029), were listed on the City's Potential List, commonly known as "The Frank Farm"; and

Whereas, the Historic Districts Study Committee studied the property and all known family names associated with the property; prepared a Preliminary Report; forwarded the Preliminary Report to the State Historic Preservation Office, the City's Planning Commission and City Council for review; and

Whereas, on April 30, 2008 the Historic Districts Study Committee held the required Public Hearing and received comment on the potential designation of the property; and

Whereas, based on the research conducted, the review comments received from the State Historic Preservation Office, and the input from the Public Hearing, the Historic Districts Study Committee concluded the property meets two of the National Register criterion for designation as a Local Historic District (Criteria A - Significant Contribution to the broad patterns of our history), and (Criteria D - Have yielded information important in prehistory or history); and

Whereas, the Historic Districts Study Committee prepared its Final Report on the property known as The Frank Farm (comprised of 1290 E. Auburn Road; 1304 E. Auburn Road, and 1344 and 1356 E. Auburn Road), and recommends that The Frank Farm be locally designated within the City of Rochester Hills and established as The Frank Farm Historic District.

Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, that the Rochester Hills City Council accepts the recommendation of the Historic Districts Study Committee, declines to designate the property known as The Frank Farm, receives and files the final report as presented, and removes The Frank Farm...
