<br />identified other properties for consideration. Any amendments would have to be approved by <br />City Council. <br />Centennial Home Program <br />Mr. Neville stated that it does not appear that any of the existing houses on Burns are over 100 <br />years old. Mr. Dubowski asked about house effective year versus the built date on the auditor's <br />site. Decided that the date should be based on the first time the house was built on the land. Mr. <br />Morse suggested using a deed search to figure out when the house was built. Mr. Morse asked <br />about a garage counting for the program and the commission decided that only homes count. Mr. <br />Dubelko stated that the 1903 and 1920 maps were very helpful in narrowing down the homes <br />that were built in that timeframe. Tax books at the County Archives are very useful also. The <br />year the tax increase shows up, the structure was built the prior year. <br />Heritage Home Program <br />Ms. Wenger stated that the Cleveland Restoration Society has had the program for a while and <br />recently was extended to the surrounding suburbs. Council interest spurred an inquiry into the <br />program which has been extended to any home 50 years old or older, extending the possible <br />reach to over 6,000 homeowners. The City will take part in a trial period beginning in July <br />running through the end of the year. The program encourages house preservation which will not <br />counter the historic preservation initiative of the Commission. Mr. Morse pointed out that the <br />HELP program is also available to residents. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />With no further business, t e meeting adjourned at 8:38 p.m. <br />?V e <br />• <br />David Neville, C air Nicole Rambo, Administrative Assistant <br />Date:
