Main St. A property owner displeased with a Design Review Board decision may appeal to the city's board of zoning appeals. If still displeased, an owner may appeal the matter in court. Board Members Seven people, all from Marion County, would sit on the Design Review Board in three-year terms without compensation. At least five of them would live in the city.

One member would be the chairman of the city planning commission, one would be a member of City Council, and another a registered architect. Four would be nominated by the mayor and chosen by a joint nominating committee of the Marion Town Center Business Association and League of Women Voters. Once formed, the review board would adopt its own rules of procedure, which must be approved by the city's planning commission and City Council. The Proposal In announcing the proposal Tuesday, officials said they want to give the community a chance to express its feelings about the matter. "We're not trying to put something in without public input," Regional Planning Director Kenneth Lengieza said.

"We want public input." City Planning Commission Chairman Lowell Thurston said the commission hopes to vote on the measure during its next meeting, scheduled for May 3. The measure then must meet council's approval to become part of the city's zoning code. 3 Review board Star wins 3 awards in statewide contest Ohio The National Weather Service says clear skies and colder air will cause scattered frost to develop across Ohio tonight. Overnight temperatures will drop into the 30s and new sprouts or plants should be covered for protection. High pressure will tighten its grip on the state this weekend.

It "may recommend to the planning commission and council legislation that would best serve to beautify, preserve, restore and develop the city." In doing so, the review board would work with city officials employees and officials.

It would recommend any other additions or revisions to the city's zoning code. The board would establish criteria for evaluating Certificates of Appropriateness. "These criteria shall include specific considerations to be given to building materials, landscaping, signs, lighting and architectural style for properties within a preservation district" and those immediately adjacent to the district. The criteria must be approved by the city's planning commission and city council. "The review board may, within its capabilities, perform such other design review related tasks as may be required (by the proposed legislation) and as may be requested or authorized by the city planning commission or council." Demolitions The proposed legislation also would prohibit demolition of any property in a preservation district without a Certificate of Appropriateness from the review board and a demolition permit from the city buildingzoning inspector.

According to the legislation, "The proposed use of the resulting space, in the case of a demolished structure, will be stated in the application for the permit. Certificate Procedures In considering applications for Certificates of Appropriateness for any change, including signs, tree removal, landscaping and demolitions, the review board would consider historic and architectural value and significance, "architectural style and general design, arrangement, texture, material and color of the proposed change" and evaluate how a change would relate to other properties and objects nearby. "Attention shall be taken to avoid the environmentally harmful effect often created by the clash of undisguised contemporary materials with those of older origin," according to the legislation. The proposed code addition offers the example of "aluminum and other metals, plastic, fiberglass and glass improperly used with brick, stone, masonry and wood." Also, "The review board shall favor the use of authentic and traditional earth colors and trim colors as opposed to colors of contemporary origin."
