Councilmember Cunningham objected. Historic and Scenic Preservation - Former Councilmember Carole Beswick addressed Council from the audience reviewing the history of the Historic and Scenic Preservation Element, how some aspects that were anticipated would be obstacles did not materialize and that this element has resulted in commendations for Redlands from all over the Country. She urged approving this section of the General Plan which would save allot of reviewing time by the Council as well as preserving a document that is very workable. Councilmember Cunningham moved to adopt Section 3.20, Historic and Scenic Preservation, motion seconded by Councilmember Gilbreath. Following discussion, the motion failed. By consensus this item will be revisited at the next General Plan study session.
