RR DD Page 4 E1 MEMORANDUM TO:Heritage Preservation Commission FROM:Ginny Gaynor, Natural Resources Coordinator/HPC Liaison DATE:March 10, 2016 HPC Meeting SUBJECT:Century Homes Program Introduction The Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) will discussand develop procedures for the Century Homes Program. Discussion Inthe late 1990’sthe Maplewood Historical Commission andtheMaplewood Area Historical Society worked togetherto honor homes that were 100 years old or more.They developed a list of57homes that metthis criterion.At aMay 7, 1997 meeting,25 CenturyHomesplaques were awardedto qualifiedhomeowners thatwanted toparticipate.Three more plaqueswere given to people that could not attend andaplaque wasgiven to onebusiness—Oak Street Furniture, which owned theformertown hall building.Minutes fromtheMay7,1997 meeting areattached (Attachment 1). Followingthat event, commissioners and society members developed a notebook of Century Homes that included a photo, building date, and descriptiveinformation for each of the homes. A sample of one page from the notebook is attached (Attachment 2). Staff can provide an electronic version of this notebookfor commissioners that would like one and will bring a hard copy of the book to the HPC meeting.Photos in that book are dated between 1997 and 2003. One of the HPC’s 2016 goals is to develop procedures for the Century Homes Program. Commissioner Cardinal has obtained a list of Maplewood Homes that are at least 100 years old. Staff has consolidatedinformation from Mr. Cardinal’s list, the 1997-2003 notebook, and the 1981-1982 survey done by Ramsey County (Attachment 3).53 homes on the 2016 Realtor’s List were built before 1900, and 135 homes on the list were built between 1900 and 1916. In developing procedures for the Century Homes program, the HPC should consider the following questions: 1.How should the Century Homes Program work? a.Should the HPC review and award homes every 2, 5, or 10 years? b.Should people be able to apply anytime? c.What should the criteria be?Some criteria to consider: i.100+ years old ii.Located in Maplewood iii.Home, should other structures be included? iv.Structure must be usable/livable Page 5 E1 v.Owner must be willing to receive certificate vi.Owner agreesto have address listed on city’s website as a Century Home vii.Other d.Should owners receivea plaque or a certificate? 2.Should HPCtake photos and fill out information form like Attachment 2?If yes, a.Before or after awarding the certificates? b.Should we ask MAHS to participate in this project? c. Should information sheets in the current notebook be reviewed and updated, or just move those demolished into a separate section. 3.What is the status of the structures on the last page of the List of Homes (Attachment 3)? This does not have to be determined at the March HPC meeting but is something that will need clarification at some point. Once decisions are made on the above, next steps may include some of the tasks listed below. It would be helpful to assign tasks and set key deadlines for the program. TaskWhoDue 1.Write description of program and procedures for review by HPC 2.Prepare mailing list to eligible participants Staff prepare list HPC reviews 3.Prepare draft letter for review by HPC 4.Draft plaque or certificate for review by HPC 5.Prepare certificates or plaquesstaff 6.Host meeting to present plaque/certificate (or council presents) 7.Take photos and complete information sheets on each homes 8.Developwebpage listing Century Homes staff Recommendation Discuss procedures and schedule forthe Century Homes Programs.

Most are houses but a few structures with other uses are included. County Survey --column includes addresses in thesurvey list, but it appears survey sheets were not done for everything on the list. Misc List --is a list of historic properties that is not dated. It appears to be related to a 2009 Map of Historic Structures, but the listand map do not completely correlate.

Discussion The 2016 Goals adopted by the HPC are listed below. GoalLead or Timeframe Committee 1.Continue 60 stories project. Gilbertson, ongoing Rudberg, Boulay 2.Plan Trivia Contest and any associated 60th Gilbertson, Begin: anniversary activities.(MCC reserved for Rudberg, Boulay Friday, 2/24/17, pm.) Complete: 3.Make recommendation for 2016 Maplewood Heritage Award. Whole commissionNovember 4.Designate Gladstone Savanna as a local historic site. Gaspar 5.Review Century Homes and Businesses and outline procedures for this program. CardinalBegin: Feb Complete: 6.Write grant and RFP to conduct survey of non- residential properties. Cardinal, Rudberg 7.Create sign for Lookout Park. Boulay In additionto the above goals, staff is going to be submitting a grant to developan Interpretive Sign Plan for Gladstone Savanna. It has been recommended that we break development of interpretation atthe Savanna into three phases: Page 16 F1 1)Interpretive Sign Plan – This identifies what signs are needed and outlines what topic each sign will address. It would also include any additional research that needs to be done. To fund this, we will apply for asmall grant (<$10,000). 2)Design signs. 3) Final design and construction. This will require applying for a large grant (>$10,000). The City will be submitting two Minnesota Historical and Cultural Heritage small grants in 2016 – one for interpretation at Gladstone Savanna and one for the survey of non-residential properties. Grant deadlines this year are: April 8, July 8, and October14. There are no restrictions on applying for more than one grant. However, we would be competing against ourselvesif we submitted two grantsin a given funding round, which is not advisable. Staff plans on applying for the Gladstone Savanna interpretation grant for the April8th deadline. At the March HPC meeting, commissioners will discuss the 2016 goals and schedule. Recommendation Discuss 2016 goals and schedule. Attachments None Page 17
