Historical Commission <br />Minutes <br />January 7, 2015 <br />Page 4 of 4 <br /> <br />presentations about the proposals to other Louisville commissions and boards. With <br />the new campus and building, the Museum could be re-imagined as the Louisville <br />Visitors Center. Lynn Koglin (LK) reported that in the past he attended the meetings of <br />several boards and commissions to speak during “public comments” about plans for <br />the Museum campus. BB suggested that a sub-group of the LHC meet to plan a more <br />formal presentation to a selected group of commissions and boards. Gladys Levis-Pilz, <br />Steve Domenico and Paula Elrod volunteered for this task. BB will set up a meeting. <br />C. Commission members discussed whether we should complete more visits to area <br />city museums to get more input and ideas. If we want to go to Longmont it would <br />have to be during the workweek when they are open and have staff to assist us. <br /> <br />XIV. Items of common interest with the LHPC <br /> <br />Paula Elrod was not able to attend the last meeting so there was nothing to report at <br />this time. <br /> <br />XV. Election of officers for 2015 <br /> <br />The slate of officers elected for 2015 were: Dan Mellish, Chairperson, Anne Robinson, <br />Vice-Chairperson, and Gladys Levis-Pilz, Secretary. These appointments were <br />approved. <br /> <br />XVI. Louisville History Foundation update <br /> <br />Three new directors have been elected to the Foundation Board. They are: Catherine <br />Wessling, who grew up in Louisville and has a background in communications; David <br />Marks, who is a marketing manager for a law firm in Denver and lives in Louisville; and <br />Missy DiSalle Diehl, who is from Louisville and who has a background in fundraising. <br />Missy’s grandfather, Lawrence Enrietto, was an important figure in the modernizing of <br />Louisville. <br /> <br />XVII. Commission Comments & Discussion items for the next meeting <br /> <br />Gladys Levis-Pilz inquired whether the Foundation was eligible to participate in the <br />Colorado Gives Day. Bridget Bacon explained that the Foundation is not eligible at this <br />time, but Foundation members have started to discuss this issue. An organization <br />needs to submit an IRS Form 990 to participate, and this has not so far been required <br />of the Foundation. The expert advice given to the Foundation thus far is that the <br />Foundation might instead want to focus on other types of fundraising at this time, but <br />the Foundation will continue to discuss. <br />Chris Leh thanked all of the Commission members for volunteering in this way. <br /> <br />XVIII. Close Meeting & Adjourn: The meeting was adjourned at 7:35PM. <br />4 <br />
