Mr. Nimtz commented on the work that had already gone into the development of standards for the West Washington Ave. area, both by -Mr. Crumlish, and the members of the Historic Districts Committee who met with Crumlish/ Sporleder on October 10th in a working session. Present at the October 10th meeting were: Ms. Davisson, Mr. Nimtz, Ms. Sporleder, Ms. Studer, Ms. Schlereth, Mr. Crumlish, Mr. Sporleder, and Mr. Eddy. Mr. Crumlish summarized the twenty-five page report. Pages 1-11 are background information. Page 12 begins to talk about how an existing building can be changed. Pages 15 and 16 are concerned with demolition. Mr. Crumlish reminded the Commission that the standards refer back to the Master Study done by Crumlish/Sporleder for Southhold Restorations. A discussion of the standards followed. Ms. Price asked about the limitation of surface materials. Mr. Crumlish suggested that perhaps it is merely a matter of wording the paragraph more positively to do away with Ms. Price's objection. Ms. Studer recommended that page 17 be amended to delete "and should proceed to remove the material for proper safekeeping." Mr. Oxian moved that the proposal be taken home and that another meeting be called this month to consider it. Mr. Rothermel seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. A meeting of the entire Commission was set for Friday October 18th at 5 p.m. at the offices of Crumlish/Sporleder located at 511 W. Colfax. Mr. Smith recognized Ms. Price, as she also had to leave the meeting. Ms. Price discussed how "Preservation" can get involved in Community Development funding, i.e. the restoration and preservation of property. She stated that the guide- lines are out now in draft form and will be finalized on January 1st. They are asking for suggestions from in- terested citizens. Ms. Price also brought to the attention of the Commission a lobbying group called "Preservation Action" that at- tempts to "get with" the politicians.
