Kiemnec <br />Admin. Assistant - Elizabeth A. Straw <br />Attorney —Kevin Butler <br />In 1984, the Historic Preservation Commission and staff provided more services to <br />more community residents than ever before. This was due in part to the addition of a <br />full time professional staff person which increased capacity but also because more <br />inquiries were received in 1984 than in previous years (due to an increased awareness of <br />preservation and favorable tax benefits for owners of historic buildings). The <br />Commission aided the community by giving out information on the Historic Sites and <br />Structures Inventory (both county and city), local landmark and district designation, <br />the National Register, the 25% Investment Tax Credit, facade easements, and preservation <br />legislation. Help was also given in the form of technical advice on restoration <br />techniques to residential, commercial, and industrial owners. The Commission served as <br />a liaison between local owners and officials and state and federal officials. Through <br />this and various other special projects and programs (see #VII),as well as its day to <br />day business, the Commission directly and indirectly impacted the preservation of <br />several historic resources in the area. <br />1. HISTORIC SITES AND STRUCTURES INVENTORY <br />The Commission developed a program as part of the 1984 Preservation Plan to <br />continually update the survey in order to keep it as current as possible. Part <br />of this Plan also included a process to identify scarce and endangered resources. <br />One structure, on the city survey, was upgraded from C/10 to S/11 - 1204 Lincolnway <br />West. The staff continued to work on the County Summary Report which will be <br />published in 1985 and include an updated list of rural historic resources as well <br />as buildings and sites from the small towns. A student intern from Notre Dame <br />worked (for credit) on one chapter of the book. <br />II. LANDMARKS <br />The following structures were designated as local landmarks: <br />1840 Kessler Boulevard <br />1204 Lincolnway West <br />227 Scott Street <br />322 West. Marion Street <br />1007 Riverside Drive <br />1059 Riverside Drive <br />0 <br />
