Recommendations FORMS: The C of A Application form should be updated to only focus on information relevant to the consideration of the proposal. The social history component should be removed unless specifically relevant to the nature of the building. Individual signatures should be required when making staff recommendations and approvals. The By-laws do not govern the C of A forms and more importantly the application requirements for them. PROCEDURE: Administrative approvals should be authorized through specific parameters — detailed and understood by the HPC board. It may be useful to have the staff authorize other incidental work (projects that are hidden from view). The Legal Affairs committee should review any changes proposed.. A summary (inspection form) should supplement the C of A process once the project is complete. PRESENTATION: Digital photos (PowerPoint) will improve the presentation of the project to the HPC Board and public. Currently, hardcopy materials are only available to Commission members and the petitioner. The public has far less information required for making informed comments. C of As and Agendas should be made available to District Liaisons. Or these items may be made regularly available through digital technologies. The HPC should investigate any new requirements for Open Door Law, requiring a descriptive_ publication of any public hearing items. IV. OLD BUSINESS V. NEW BUSINESS Moved: Zeiger Second: Sassano To suspend agenda for hearing of visitors Approved 4-0 before CLG Training portion of the meeting. VI. HEARING OF VISITORS Kevin Griffith was acknowledged to speak. He'd come to the HPC to request a modification to a staff approved C of A, 2008-0513. Because the modification requires hearing by the Commission, a Special Meeting will be scheduled. (The matter is not actionable because public hearing could not be held at this meeting.) The meeting will be Friday May 23, 2008, pending proper notification per Open Door Law. Sharon Czarnecki appeared on behalf of the homeowner of the local landmark at 713 W LaSalle. The homeowner is seeking HUD assistance for lead paint remediation at 713 W LaSalle. Ms. Czarnecki, who is authorized to be a proxy for the homeowner, was instructed that a C of A application would be necessary due to the scope of the proposed work (vinyl siding) to the exterior of the home, per the HUD program information. That C of A should appear on the June meeting. It was determined, due to low meeting attendance, that the CLG Training would be postponed until the July 21, 2008 meeting. ADJOURNMENT Moved: 8:12 pm Zeiger Second: Sassano Approved: 4-0 14
