Historic Preservation Commission Meeting Minutes June 12, 2006 Page 2 of 2 Subcommittee Reports  Economic Incentives – discussed as part of previous item  Education & Outreach – Muckle continues to work on information on how to research your building and would like to have a workshop on how to landmark your building  Design Review/Recommendations – No report  Surveying/Mapping – Muckle reported that Dan Trudeau had much of the GIS information complete and she will then add the database information.  Structures of Merit – No report Demolition Requests  917 McKinley Avenue – Lewis reported that she and Tofte had reviewed this house. She noted it was a difficult decision as the house had a great deal of architectural integrity however the excavation of the rear foundation showed that the foundation had significant damage and was unlikely to sustain an addition. She and Tofte released the permit.  940 Main Street – Lewis reported that she and Tofte had reviewed this request and released the permit. The home had very little architectural integrity left and the additions made over the years were particularly poor. In addition, the home had a noticeable mold problem. Items from Staff  Brick Silo on Pine Street – Muth reported that the parcel on Pine Street with the brick silo is listed for sale. One real estate agent contacted the Planning Department about demolishing the silo. In addition, some neighbors contacted Muth regarding landmarking the silo.  Lee Street Demolitions – Muth went to look at the site on Lee Avenue that was in question at the June meeting. She found only one area that was disturbed and after reviewing a 2004 aerial photo it looks as though only small out buildings were removed. No permit is required to remove buildings of that size.  Update on Building Division Information – The Building Division is now including the additional information from the Commission in its information to contractors.  An article from the Rocky Mountain News and copies of the Louisville Historian were distributed. Items from Commission Members – None Discussion Items for Next Meeting – Reference materials for preservation. Adjourn – Meeting adjourned at 8:35 PM.
