Historic Preservation Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />February 8, 2016 <br />Page 4 of 13 <br />Stewart says to Haley, do you coordinate with Scott since you are the chair? The HPC <br />would be interested in a Letter of Support when the time is appropriate. <br />Simkus says Staff is going to look into an historic heritage planning grant through Main <br />Street with Department of Local Affairs (DOLA). It would be helpful to have the HPC <br />input about pursuing it because it does require some time. It does require a partnership <br />between a local nonprofit and the city. <br />Haley says I think this project is exciting. If the end result is being able to save a building <br />by moving it, that would be a huge milestone. We understand the undertaking and <br />appreciate your effort. <br />➢ PUBLIC HEARING — 1201 Lincoln Demolition Case #2016- 001 -DEMO <br />Conflict of Interest and Disclosure: <br />None. <br />Staff Report of Facts and Issues: <br />Lauren Trice presents. <br />DEMOLITION REQUEST: <br />The applicant is requesting to demolish the existing residential structure and garage.
