Homeowners Sue City Commission After Historic Designation Granted

DENVER (CBS4) - The owners of a house on 36th Avenue near Park Hill Golf Course are suing the city's Landmark Preservation Commission. The owners want to demolish their home, Business Den reports.

Neighbors of the 114-year-old home don't want to see it go. They asked for it to be historically designated citing it is a "rare remaining farmhouse."

The owners say the application for historic designation was wrongfully approved after commissioners noted the application was incomplete.

They want the decision to be overturned.
