Mr. Morse said there have been individuals born in <br />North Olmsted who became individuals of significant achievements and wondered if the <br />commission wanted to recognize them or if it.was within their scope of work. Mr. Dubellco said <br />if there are individuals born in North Olmsted who achieved recognition elsewhere and the city <br />wanted to reflect upon that with pride, it would be within the Landmarks scope to do the <br />research. There was discussion of possible properties meriting historic recognition plaques, such <br />as the Lustron home on Masticlc Road. <br />The commission's participation in the bicentennial events should be included in the goals. Mr. <br />O'Malley said the historic tour will take place October 11. Mr. Neville felt a broad statement <br />pertaining to the commission's involvement with the events was more appropriate than listing <br />each one. Ms. Wenger suggested Old Town Hall capital improvement plan remain on the goals. <br />Mr. Neville said the Parker Ranch was put on hold due to family health issues however it should <br />remain on the goals so the home can be plaque. Mr. Morse felt that the cemetery project should <br />be a priority of the commission. <br />Mr. Limpert suggested the commission not take on more than four projects for the year. If the <br />commission finds their goals reached they could loolc at adding more. Ms. Wenger said she
