Molnar presented the Commission with a slide show and discussion for orientation of duties. The following goals were decided upon: 1) PROMOTE ADOPTION OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION ORDINANCE and HERITAGE LANDMARKS LIST. Continue to work towards adoption and educate the public about the Landmarks List and the Preservation Ordinance. 2) INCORPORATION OF SPECIAL AREA PLAN FOR RAILROAD DISTRICT WITH REVISION OF R-2 ZONE. As discussed at the meeting on July 7th, continue with the revisions of Conditional Use Permits in the R-2 zone in the Railroad District. Assimilate this with the Special Area Plan for the Railroad District. 3) SELF GUIDED WALKING TOUR. Develop a pamphlet with maps and descriptions of structures for self guided tours, similar to the park guide. Begin with the downtown area. Lewis, Skibby, and Ennis will work on this. 4) SEEK MORE FUNDING FOR CEMETERY NOMINATIONS TO THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES. Kay Atwood is beginning the research for the first phase of this project. Explore possibilities of funding for the remaining $2,500. 5) CONTINUE TO SUPPORT ALLEY COMMITTEE.
