00.., Eagle Historic Preservation Commission
Minutes of Jan 9th, 2013
Call to Order: The meeting was called to order by Chairman Thomason at
5:20 p.m. Early time since all the commissioners that were attending were
already there.
Roll Call: Commissioners Frank Thomason, Pam Kelch, Jack Beardon, and
Diane Scott were present. Commissioners Stafford, Nickel, and Fallow had
excused absences.
Unfinished Business:
A. Approval of Minutes of December 12th, 2012 by Commissioner Kelch and
21ld by Commissioner Bearden.
B. Grant Applications update. Commissioner Kelch stated that she was still
doing research for the sign project grant.
C. Letter from Ann Swanson, SHIPO, recertifying Eagle as a CLG.
Chairman Thomason stated that he had received a letter from SHIPO
recertifying Eagle on Dec 2, 2012. He stated that he was glad that we did not
accept Ann's offer for us to drop out of the program last year. It was felt by the
commission that there were other properties of interest that would qualify now
and in the future. This grant money would help us to designate future
properties of historic interest. He also stated that he would send a copy of this
letter to each commissioner via email.
D. Quarterly Speakers Program: Commissioner Kelch is heading our next
program; she stated that she had emailed Patty Miller for a Bio. She also
stated that all was set for the room at the library and that she planned to print
flyers next month for distribution.
E. New Business: Commissioner Kelch asked about the Mace property
and the location of the Mace home. Chairman Thomason stated he would
check with Mike Williams to find out the exact location. It was decided that
pictures needed to be taken when this was established. All commissioners were
in agreement on this.
Commissioner Kelch discussed the need for a list of responsibilities for
Commissioners. Since the staff change over with the museum, it is unknown
to the commissioners what items were covered by the former such as the
budget and other items unknown by the commission at this time. No
resolution was given.
Commissioner Scott stated that she has located a historic property with-
out buildings at 4130 W. Beacon Light Rd. It was constructed in 1904 with
little to no changes to the outside appearance to the dwelling. Commissioner
Scott stated that she met with Trisha Canady of SHIPO at the property site
(with permission of the owner) last year. She and a fellow worker spent time
analyzing the property and in the end decided that it well qualified for the
National Historic Register. However at that time we were not able to proceed
due to budget constrictions, our money had been spent on the signage of
historic properties. It was discussed that unless the budget was not increased
this designation, with a grant from SHIPO could not take place. (it is a
matching grant) This property has out buildings as well as the home including
a nice outhouse. (a rarity in this day) Chairman Thomason stated that this
could be discussed before city council at some time in the
future. Commissioner Scott stated that she would provide a copy of the work
sheets to each of the commissioners at the next meeting.
Commissioner Bearden stated that he had met a man Larry Irish, who was
a large land owner near Linder. He stated he planned to meet with him again to
get some history of that area of interest. All commissioners agreed this could be
an important contact for historic information. Commissioner Bearden stated
he would report next month on his findings.
