Historic Preservation Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />January 9, 2012 <br />Page 3 of 6 <br /> <br />McCartney stated he would like an HPC representative for the review committee. <br />Stewart stated he imagined the next step, after the HSA, would be to renovate the <br />outside of the structure and create a master plan for the future use. <br />Update – Demolition Process – Code Amendment <br />McCartney gave an update of the item being presented to City Council on January 17, <br />2012. The update includes a side by side comparison of the existing process and the <br />proposed process, as well as provides an updated flow chart. <br />The HPC discussed appeals of stays. <br />The HPC recommended the report should include a list of the application types the City <br />currently has that expire in one year. <br />Discussion – Commercial Incentives <br />Stewart congratulated the HPC and staff on getting the Incentive package through City <br />Council with a 5 to 1 vote. He stated he felt there was a good discussion at Council and <br />agreed there needed to be more definitions for the program. <br />Koertje stated there were a few items the Council still wanted research on. Two of the <br />items were definition of terms and a priority tier of structures for landmarking. He stated <br />a priority list is difficult to create because landmarking is voluntary. <br />Stewart asked McCartney what the timeline for the reconnaissance survey is. He <br />added a survey would be a step in the right direction or creating a list of landmarkable <br />structures. <br />McCartney stated the survey would be good because it takes the subjectivity out of the <br />list and quantifies the data. He stated the timeline is based on when the grant is <br />approved and when Council approves the project. <br />Koertje stated the next step is public outreach. Maybe another workshop in May. <br />Fasick reminded the HPC we have 3 commercial property owners who are interested in <br />the commercial incentives. They will be a good public outreach if they following through <br />with landmarking. <br />Discussion – City Council Study Session <br />Stewart stated we should discuss our Goals for 2012 at our February meeting when we <br />have a full board. The items we could include are: <br /> <br /> Commercial Incentives next steps <br /> <br /> Public Outreach Events – Preservation Week <br /> <br /> Austin Niehoff Restoration <br /> <br />
