SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Idaho State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) administers federal funds for preservation projects through the Certified Local Government (CLG) program. The City of McCall Historic
Preservation Commission (HPC) is a SHPO certified local government entity and is eligible to apply for funding.
The Historic Preservation Commission would like to seek grant funding to support its efforts to update its catalog of buildings and sites within the McCall city limits and Impact Area
that may have local and/or national historic significance. The project will entail:
Analysis of Valley County Assessor’s data to identify all buildings that are, or soon will be, at least 50 years old. 50 years is the federal standard by which buildings may be considered
“historic”, and
Catalogue these properties by importing data into the City’s GIS historic properties layer; and
Develop a GIS-based mobile survey application to be used to gather on-site information about the current condition and historic significance of identified buildings; and
Engage the services of a historian to verify and “ground-truth” the historic integrity of identified properties utilizing the GIS-based mobile survey application.
The CLG Grant request amount is $3500 and will be matched with $1500 of FY23 City funds allocated to the HPC and in-kind staff coordination and GIS services.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submittal of a Certified Local Government Grant application and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
