Bartlett Avenue Caryn Burke Ms. Gal stated the applicant is requesting landmark designation for the residence located at 15017 S. Bartlett Avenue. The Village’s 2006 survey of the urban core recommends the residence for local landmark status as well as being a contributing structure to the East Side Historic District. The home was originally constructed circa 1889 and was the first residence built within Hall’s Subdivision and served as the final residence for Wallace Peter and Carrie Hall. They would reside in the home for 11 years before their respective passing’s in 1900. Ms. Gal reviewed the staff report dated August 11, 2020. Ms. Gal concluded based on the information available prior to the public hearing and discussion by the HPC, staff believes the subject property qualifies for landmark designation. Ms. Gal stated no Public Comments received via email. Chairman Bortel asked Ms. Burke if there was anything she would like to add. Ms. Burke stated no. Chairman Bortel stated that ArchiSearch classified the Vernacular Building Type as a T-Plan but the home is a Cross Plan. Chairman Bortel indicated that Commissioner Derrick suggested adding to the nomination the Sanborn Fire Insurance 1893 map, since the house is on the map. Chairman Bortel asked staff if the commission received the architectural changes to the nomination that were submitted today by 3 Historic Preservation Commission Minutes August 13, 2020 Page 2 of 2 Commissioner Schmidt. Ms. Gal stated the packet was not updated but all changes will be part of the Village Board packet. Chairman Bortel indicated that the State Historic Preservation Office does not require all the early history of Plainfield. Ms. Gal indicated that nominations have a lot of background history on the Village of Plainfield that does not relate to the nomination. Chairman Bortel asked the commission if the history that does not pertain to the property being nominated can be removed for future nominations. Commissioner Hendricksen stated not to change the current nomination but moving forward to remove the information that does not relate to the nomination. Commissioner Schmidt asked if removing the history will delay any process with the State. Chairman Bortel stated nominations are local and the State does not review them, but all Landmark Ordinances are recorded with the Recorder of Deeds. Commissioner Olsen stated that having the early history of the Village for educational purposes for the applicants is good. Chairman Bortel suggested having the nominations focus on the house and having an additional handout for the applicant on the history of Plainfield. Commissioner Derrick stated since the these are local landmarks the HPC can change the nomination however they see fit. Commissioner Derrick stated that the information in the nomination should directly relate to the building. Commissioner Schmidt suggested streamlining the nomination so whoever eventually takes over the nominations in the future can continue with it. Commissioner Lucas made a motion to recommend approval of the landmark designation for the property known as the Wallace Peter Hall House, located at 15017 S. Bartlett Avenue, based on the criteria outlined in the staff report and landmark nomination form as amended. Seconded by Commissioner Hendricksen.
