removed.) I would like to suggest that the commission give NICH the option of <br />either: Use horizontal siding over framing, OR: Use logs as it currently looks, <br />basing their decision on the physical evidence that is encountered as the building <br />is dismantled; and further, that NICH report their findings and decision to HPC <br />for our records. <br />Is that acceptable? I thought that's what we talked about. <br />DAVID BAINBRIDGE: Yes it is. Just for your interest, just today a better photograph <br />has surfaced. I think we talked about keeping the log ends on it and for maintenance I <br />think it is a fairly good idea; but, I have to take another look at it. It does show upright <br />supports with a lathe on the end. <br />JOANN SPORLEDER: Whatever the physical evidence is that seems like a good idea <br />to me to redo it that way. However you decide. My recommendation is to leave that <br />little bit up to you to decide how you want to handle it. Just let us know. That's my <br />recommendation. <br />DAVID BAINBRIDGE: Ok, thank you. Are there any other questions? <br />JOHN OXIAN: What does the new photograph show? <br />DAVID BAINBRIDGE: Vic Leatherwood who did this study noticed there was some <br />mortaring on the top log as you went into the gable and he thought there were uprights <br />with an irregular lathe board end. Just as Joann said, the photographs we have in some <br />show a great deal of detail; but, not on the gable ends. There was some question about <br />that and of course as we dismantle the cabin that would be answered. In the interest of <br />Joann's suggestion to reconsider this, I got to thinking about it and I thought the gable log <br />ends that are there now certainly have a very hard patented surface to them, and we just <br />might go with that for the question of maintenance. Talking with Vic Leatherwood, the <br />National Parks Service, and the National Trust, we are within our, I don't want to say, <br />rights, because we could take it back to either one as Joann is suggesting but they now <br />often take a building back to its latest major renovation. So either way we will be in <br />good standing. <br />JOANN SPORLEDER: I recommend that the so called Navarre Cabin specifications as <br />presented to us in the first place be accepted as presented with the addition of letting <br />NICH decide whether they want to use the logs or the siding in the gable ends as seems <br />appropriate to them and to let us know what they decide. <br />MARTHA CHOITZ: Seconds the motion and it passes unanimously. <br />C. NATIONAL REGISTER NOMINATION <br />Walker Field and North Liberty Individual Sites <br />CATHERINE HOSTETLER: (See white copies of National Register Nomination Staff <br />Reports for Walker Field Shelterhouse and North Liberty Park attached to HPC monthly <br />meeting packet). I need the commission's approval on these two so we can send them on. <br />TODD ZEIGER: I will make that motion. <br />LYNN PATRICK: Seconds the motion. <br />JOHN OXIAN: Are you going to do every one of these WPA's separately around town? <br />CATHERINE HOSTETLER: Just three. <br />JOHN OXIAN: What about the other ones? <br />CATHERINE HOSTETLER: We just received on Friday, the Riverwall nomination. <br />We didn't receive it in time to put it in the monthly meeting packet. You can approve <br />22 <br />
