Historic Preservation Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2019 Page 5 of 6 Selvoski replied that staff had interpreted the language as referring to porches, but it was not explicit. Haley and Parris agreed that there should be additional language for porches and the like. Thomas added that porches could be the most interesting aspects of the architecture. Zuccaro stated that the Commission would have to amend the Code to make those changes and Selvoski could bring forward additional language changes before the Commission considered a code amendment. Public Outreach Discussion Selvoski informed the Commission that Commissioners Klemme and Parris had worked a booth at the McCaslin Movie Night. Klemme stated that she thought citizens learned a lot from the City -related booths at the movie and that there was good turnout. Parris agreed and thought that the free ice cream coupons were a smart idea. The preservation booth had origami houses and thought that stringing them up at the next booth might be a good idea with all the extra display houses. The quality of questions from community members was great, including questions about specific buildings and the program itself. She suggested that the Commission use a similar combination of hands-on and discussion activities in the future. Selvoski updated the Commission on some of the outreach staff and commissioners were working on in the near future: 1. Press Release 2. City Newsletter 3. Direct Mailing 4. Boulder Area Realtor Association (September 4th) 5. Coasters 6. First Friday Art Walk (August 2nd and September 6th) Selvoski asked for other suggestions. Klemme asked about Labor Day events. Dickinson replied that there were booths set up at Memory Square Park. Parris suggested connecting with the library and the museum to do a scavenger hunt or an architecture walk.
