Diane Moore presented an update on the parking meters with Randy Ready, the Parking Director. Bill: I feel we should stay away from the single meter. Roger: A memo should be sent to Council that the HPC is opposed to the meters and if they are chosen we need to be included in the decision process on the appropriate design. 442 W. BLEEKER - PIONEER PARK LANDMARK DESIGNATION Amy: This parcel was designated in 1982 but at that time it only listed an address not the legal description of the parcel. For that reason and due to the fact that part of the land was sold and made a public park we are re-designating the entire parcel. I felt that Pioneer Park meets four of the criteria. Joe Krabacher stepped down. Bill Poss stepped down. Donnelley Erdman chaired the meeting. Donnelley: Ail of the standards for local designation have been addressed except D as the architect is unknown. The structure itself is of architectural importance. Staff recommends that HPC designate all of Pioneer Park which is 442 W. Bleeker Block 36 Lots K,L,M,N,O,P, Q, R, S and portions of lots A,B,C Block 36. MOTION: Roger made the motion that HPC recommend Landmark Designation for all of Pioneer Park, 442 W. Bleeker Street, Block 36, Lots K,L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, and portions of A,B, C finding that Designation Standards A, B,B, and E have been met; second by Karen. All in favor, motion carries. WORKSESSION PRIVACY FENCE PIONEER PARK Kevin McLeod, Cunniffe & Assoc.: The privacy fence was always a part or the approval and it would go to the property line between the park and Stromberg's property. At that time the Historic Trust was attempting to buy three lots. After we gained our approval they were no longer able to buy three lots and bought two. I resubmitted a change order through the Planning Office and reviewed it with Kim Johnson and sent it to the Building Office for the extension of an additional 30 feet that the Historic Trust did not buy. We are here to clarify that situation. I drew two elevations one from the street and the other elevation is from the Park which shows where the street is, the dimension back from the street 15 feet to the existing wrought iron fence. Behind our privacy fence the wrought iron fence would go to the six foot height. The privacy fence is 38 feet back from the street. We are just proposing to extend the fence as previously proposed and approved. Don: It appears that the pier and the top of the fence are the same height. Karen: What about the landscaping. Arthur Stromberg: We have no engaged in a landscape architect and to totally hide a fence it would be difficult. At some point we will landscape but we wanted to do the house first. Roger: Does the privacy fence hook to the historic trust fence? Kevin: Actually the trust fence attaches to the privacy fence. We are using brick piers. Karen: Possibly the fence could be covered with ivy so you would have privacy and that would keep all the fence from fighting with each other visually. Arthur Stromberg: You need to visit the site with that concept in site and look at the grade as it is misleading. Our grade goes up and then drops off again. Our concern was monolithic. There are trees existing. Donnelley: The treatment of the piers in terms of whether they should be tied in visually and in terms of surface treatment of the paint on the house and also the fencing. Roger: The wooden part of the fence will not be painted and be a stain. Arthur Stromberg: Yes. Donnelley: I will monitor the project. 706 W. MAIN - FENCE Joe Krabacher: We are getting rid of the cyclone fence and need approval for construction of a wooden fence. MOTION: Don made the motion to approve the submission of a fence at 706 W. Main and that his approval be extended for another year; second by Roger. All in favor, motion carries. Donnelley: I believe our approvals are for 18 months. MOTION: Roger made the motion to adjourn; favor, motion carries. Meeting adjourned at 6:00 p.m. Kathleen J. Strickland, Chief Deputy clerk second by Joe. Ail in
