Minutes of the City of Jefferson Historic Preservation Commission
August 13, 2013
suggested changes to paragraph B(2) to have the owner provide an explanation of why
the structure cannot be rehabilitated.
Bill Case moved and Jane Moore seconded to accept the revisions to the ordinance as
amended.
b. Update on "where we are" in preparation for special meeting about MSP.
The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the condition of the MSP structure and to
formulate ideas for a published report drawing attention to the deplorable conditions of
the buildings and lack of care, with no apparent plan to preserve, on the part of the
State. It appears that the buildings are on the road to demolition. Art Hernandez
suggested that the meeting be focused solely on MSP. There will be no other agenda
items. We need to figure out what we can do. Mr. Hernandez has looked at the statute.
Mark Schreiber's impression about what the situation is and the statute language may
not be the same. Jayme Abbott will ask Diane Cary to email a copy of the statute to
members of the Commission (217.0900 — 217.0910). There is a question about where
any monies (donations) to MSP would go; to General Revenue? To restore or improve
MSP?
Jayme Abbott will try to arrange the meeting, based partly on Mark Schreiber's schedule.
Meeting dates suggested included August 27th, 26th or September 3`d. (in that order).
She will send out information once the date is set or an email with alternative dates for
members to choose from.
New Business
a. Reports on July 20, 2013 Historic Summit
Mary Schantz and Bill Case gave an overview of the summit. The group of participants
included a wide range of organizations interested in historic significance preservation.
Each organization gave a brief report on their organization's purpose and recent
activities. The second portion of the program, led by Lois Hildenbrand, focused on
strategic visioning using the concepts of policy and visibility. MSP was not a major topic.
The groups all wanted to continue to meet. A further meeting is to be scheduled in late
October or November.
Other Business
a. National Alliance of Preservation Commissions (NAPC) Board of Directors 2013 Cal! for
Nominations/Application for 2014 — 2016 Board Service

spoke highly of the statewide Preservation Commission meeting coming up this
September in Boonville. Jayme will email information about the conference.

well attended and received.
