the homes that may qualify, Mr. Limpert and Mr. Neville agreed. Mr. Aspery stated that small bronze medallions would cost approximately $80-100. Mr. Morse had a suggested medallion that he showed the commission members. Mr. Aspery discussed using the Celebrate North Olmsted Facebook page and the City's website to announce the program in addition to mailing the letters. These may be also be good ways to share the information Mr. Dubelko found during his research. Mr. Neville believed the board should review the applications submitted for the program. Mr. Morse questioned if the residents should be required to attend a meeting if their home definitely qualifies for the program. Mr. Dubelko suggested everyone who is interested in a certificate should still apply for the program. Mr. Morse suggested owners come before the board to ensure that they receive the certificate, Mr. Dubelko added that this process may also clear up any misinformation the board may have on the homes. Mr. Morse suggested someone in the Planning Department be in charge of vetting applications and can pass out certificates to verified Centennial Homes. The board agreed that all owners need to apply, the researched Centennial Homes can be issued a certificate and the potential candidates can have a chance to present their case before the board. Ms. Schuler agreed and added that this process would make it more user-friendly for the residents who want to take part in the program. Mr. Dubelko suggested the program be continuous and to use the information that is readily available and add to it as more is discovered. Ms. Schuler added that people who do not receive letters initially may take the impetus to do their own research and apply for the program on their own. 2016 Annual Renort Ms. Schuler suggested assigning a goal to each member to ensure the goals are getting worked on. Each member brings different skill sets to the commission that can be better utilized. Mr. Neville suggested potentially forming sub-committees to address the goals, Mr. Limpert agreed. Mr. Morse pointed out that the Centennial Home program was a larger project than was initially anticipated. Mr. Neville mentioned that some of the goals are not a priority, but did not see any that needed to be removed from the list. Discussion regarding Fatheads eligibility for Landmarks recognition. Mr. Dubowski suggested adding the Thompson House move to the report. Mr. Neville would like to see the revised draft prior to approving the report at the next meeting.
