Chairman Fend suggested the commissioners look at this website and see how the HPC
can model a resource guide from it.
Dunn reported SHPO also has a list of Historic Resources but is more regional. She spoke
with Tyler Hoon who has contractor contacts, and he offered to speak with them and see if
they would like to be in a local home-owners guide for preservation work.

the city's website,to see if a future Historic Preservation Resource Guide could be added as

RE: 2500 W. State St.
Dear Mr. Williams,
The existing home at 2500 W. State St. is listed as contributing craftsman style home per the Ada County Historic
Preservation database due to a Phase 1 report completed in 1998. We would like to challenge this determination
as the area and characteristics of this home have been altered substantially since this study was completed.
The subject property and surrounding lots were agricultural in nature in 1998. Since 1998 to present all
surrounding lots have been converted to developed R-1 and\or R-2 residential subdivisions\lots. From the original
report,the two Craftsman style homes on adjacent lots listed as eligible at 2501 W. State Street and 2505 W. State
St. have been removed and the areas in which they stood are now developed residential and commercial
subdivisions. In the neighborhood meeting the home was referenced as the"Meth House"by several residents and
consensus was that the area and home was a nuisance.Due to the characterization and modernization of the area
and lack of preservation of the surrounding historical properties we do not feel the house to be contributing any
longer to a historical area or district.
Mike Cook, a home builder\contractor,cataloged the home on 9/3/21 with the attached synopsis and pictures. The
home has been substantially renovated since 1998 and has not been maintained in its original state. The home has
been modernized\altered in the following ways:
1. Exterior
a. Roof—Updated from wood roof to architectural shingles
b. Exterior doors—Updated from original doors(one original door found in house)
c. Windows—Most changed from wood to metal or vinyl
d. Chimney—unchanged but dilapidated
e. Siding—Modified from wide clap board lap to small reveal lap
2. Interior
a. Flooring—Changed from wood floor to vinyl planks
b. Plaster Walls—completely removed and replaced with sheetrock\texture
c. Cabinets—replaced with modern cabinets
d. Lighting—replaced with modern LED lighting
e. Interior Doors—Replaced with new doors that are not solid core or similar design.
f. Trim—replaced with modern moldings
3. Out Buildings
2447 S. Vista Avenue •Boise, ID 83705
208-344-1180
a. In extreme disrepair
i. Roofs falling apart
ii. Structural issues
The renovations above have modernized the home and significantly altered the original character of the home.
We do not feel the home contributes to the original sense of time and place and historical development intended
by preservation. The design,setting,materials,workmanship, feeling and historical association have been so
altered that the overall historical integrity of the building has been irrevocably lost.
Please give me a call if you have any questions or comments. Thanks.
