The Lakewood Planning Commission rejected an application asking for the Heideloff (or Sly) mansion to be added to the city's historical registry in February.
At its meeting Thursday, the Lakewood Planning Commission may hear an appeal over whether the Heideloff mansion should become a historic landmark. In a split decision last month, the Commission rejected an application submitted, in part, by Lakewood Heritage Advisory Board member and neighbor Jeff Weber who urged the home be given the historic designation. The commission can either reject the request for an appeal raised by Weber and various surrounding neighbors of the home — located 13474 Edgewater Drive —or it may opt to rehear the proposal, the Sun News reports.

The law on the books since 2008 has come up a few times in the past year. The public meeting is set to take place at the University of Akron Lakewood campus on Thursday.
Given the planning commission’s recent decision regarding the Heideloff property, it’s just good timing that the city’s heritage advisory board will revisit the Historic Preservation Ordinance at its meeting on Thursday.

A recent attempt by neighbors of the home at 13474 Edgewater Drive to make the property a historic landmark was overruled by the commission in a split vote. It would have been the first residential property in the city with the designation, and the fourth overall. The others are St. James Catholic Church, the Oldest Stone House and the First Church of Christ, Scientist. The neighbors have appealed the planning commission’s decision. The …

According to the county property search, Jeff Weber lives about one mile away form the property in question. Not what I'd call a 'neighbor' so much as a meddler. As a matter of fact, his house was built in the 1930s and I think it's pretty. Anyone else want to join me in trying to get it designated historic? more ›
