Report from Brian Crumlish Mr. Crumlish spoke about his -enthusiasm for the County Survey and brought the Commission up-to-date on the project. He mentioned that a substantial amount of the work had been done. He said his firm had spent about $900. just on mileage and film, and $500. for the: Consultant, Mr. Gaede. Mr. Crumlish agreed that work still had to be done: checking some names and addresses, re-evaluating the sur, vey forms in order to upgrade some of the above average homes, tracing over the penciled survey cards with ink, and recommending registration of significant buildings which might be of state and national interest. Mr. Crumlish said that he would consider having Mr. Gaede back after the classification of structures has been com- pleted. He also spoke about a base map (3' x 41) that his office is preparing and which should be available at about March 22. Mr. Smith suggested that Mr. Crumlish get together with some of the Commission members and review the work. Mr. Smith then distributed a list of committees and their members. It was suggested that Mr. Rothermel and the Historic Landmarks Committee meet with Brian Crumlish in his office -in about a week and review those structures which should be considered as County Landmarks.
