C. Most Notable Properties - Event Planning
Mr. Palmer noted a need for a guest list and asked commissioners to access a
shared Google sheet to add invitees.
Commissioner Gartner asked if a press release was available to post online, or to
use as a template for this year's event. Mr. Palmer indicated that he would share
a previous version.
Commissioner Ott suggested hosting future Most Notables events in historic
locations triggering discussion of City policy requiring meetings to be held in
public facilities to ensure full public access and ADA compliance.
D. Potential Term & Supply Contract for Historical Research
Mr. Palmer noted that past commissions had entered into annual term and supply
contracts for historical property research. However; there was no further
discussion.
VII. DEMOLITION PERMIT APPLICATIONS
Mr. Palmer presented information about the property at 2302 Paris Road, which
was submitted too late for inclusion on the March agenda, but was likely to be
deemed a nuisance property due to its condition. He indicated that the interior
had been exposed to the elements for an extended period, and there was likely
very little salvage materials remaining. Commissioners indicated no objections to
the release of the demolition permit.
