  • S:\PLDATA\Plan320\CLG Report\20
    Commission on Chicago Landmarks CERTIFIED LOCAL GOVERNMENT ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2010 The Commission on Chicago Landmarks (the “Commission”), whose members are appointed by the Mayor and the City Council, was established in 1968 by City ordinance. The Commission is responsible for recommending to the City Council which areas, districts, places, buildings, structures, works of art, and other similar objects within the City of Chicago should be designated as Chicago Landmarks, which protects them by law. As part of the City’s 2011 budget, a departmental reorganization was proposed which included the merger of the Department of Zoning and Land Use Planning (which includes the Historic Preservation Division that staffs the Commission) and the Department of Community Development. Adopted by City Council in November 2010, and effective January 1, 2011, a new Department of Housing and Economic Development (HED) was created. The Historic Preservation Division will continue to staff the Commission on Chicago Landmarks and is part of the new department. The Acting HED Commissioner is Andrew J. Mooney. As part of the reorganization, the Chicago Landmarks Ordinance was amended to reduce the Commission membership from ten to nine members to reflect this new department organization, with the ninth member being the HED Commissioner (or his or her designee) as an ex-officio member. This annual report has been prepared in fulfillment of the City of Chicago’s annual reporting requirement under the National Park Services’s Certified Local Government Program established under the National Historic Preservation Act. The City of Chicago has been a “Certified Local Government” since 1985. 1.

  • Commission on Chicago Landmarks
    Commission on Chicago Landmarks CERTIFIED LOCAL GOVERNMENT ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2015 The Commission on Chicago Landmarks, whose members are appointed by the Mayor and the City Council, was established in 1968 by city ordinance. The Commission is responsible for recommending to the City Council which areas, districts, places, buildings, structures, works of art, and other similar objects within the City of Chicago should be designated as Chicago Landmarks, which protects them by law. This annual report has been prepared in fulfillment of the City’s annual reporting requirement under the National Park Service’s Certified Local Government Program established under the National Historic Preservation Act. The City of Chicago has been a “Certified Local Government” since 1985. The Commission is staffed by the Historic Preservation Division in the Department of Planning and Development. The 2015 staff consisted of six and one half staff, a reduction from 2014 due to retirement/loss. Though the Division participates in Department-wide planning and economic development initiatives, the majority of the work performed by staff is focused on the duties outlined in the Landmarks Ordinance and the Rules and Regulations of the Commission on Chicago Landmarks. This work includes, but is not limited to, landmark designations, permit review, economic incentives for landmark properties, and the demolition delay process. 1. CHICAGO LANDMARK DESIGNATION The landmark designation process begins with a preliminary vote by the Commission on Chicago Landmarks (CCL). This vote not only initiates the formal designation process, but places the review of building permits for the proposed landmark under the jurisdiction of the Commission unless there is a final denial action by the Commission or City Council.
