f Lord said they seem to have some better information. She said according to a conversation with Mr. Franks in 1976, he said it has black walnut beams going back to about 1850. There was further discussion about what documentation the board has. Mrs. Lord said the program is called the Historic Recognition Program and that is what goes on the sign. Mr. O'Malley said if it is not all put into their rules and procedures, they will not get the credit for the program through the CLG application. It has to be outlined. Mr. Lang iilformed Mr. O'Malley that a set of rules and regulations was written for the commission as part of a graduate program by his son about 2 or 3 years ago. Mr. Lang said he was advised at that time that the commission, being a charter cominission, was not entitled to have any rules or regulations. Mr. O'Malley said the code makes a reference to the authority of the commission to adopt and enforce rules for the procedures to be followed by the commission. There was additional discussion about finding those rules and.setting them in place. Mr. Dubowski asked Mr. O'Malley if he is aware of whether an interview took place with Mr. Schumann. Mr. O'Malley indicated he is not certain. There was further discussion about keeping updated on the progress of getting a new member. Mr. Lang explained that he found out Mr. Schumann has spoken to the Mayor about the position. Mr. Lang returned to the topic of by-laws for the commission. He said he will provide to Mr. O'Malley a copy of a letter from Mr. Dubelko dated May 30, 2000 regai-ding proposed by-laws for the commission, along with his reply to that request, with a copy of the proposed by-laws dated May 22, 2000.

Applicatzon, for• CLG - Mr. Lang said they have the form and they have a past CLG application which was completed and returned to them with recommendations by the Ohio Historical Society. He said he believes that currently they are in a good position to have the CLG application completed and hopefully approved since a lot of the Society's concerns have been addressed by recent charter change. Mrs. Lord said they do have a file of Community Council items and she found something from 1985. She said they need to keep addinc, to that file. She pointed out Mrs. VanAuken was quoted in 1985 and a lot of her stories were told. Mr. Lang said he will be ?nakinb phone calls to all of the members of the commission, after he gets a i-eview from Mr. O'Malley, regarding the application for CLG as far as its inclusivity to meet their recommendations and requii-ements for authorship of the board's responses on the current application. He said between now and the 29`1' of September at least two things need to be determined for sure and that is whether there is any new information in regard to siding past the 1980 recommendations by the Secretary of the Interior, and whether or not they can verify the comment that was made aboiit "can siding get so old that it won't hold paint." He found that to be an incredible statement. Mr. Dubowski referred to a house he owned in Lakewood. He said the paint was perfect the day he bought it. The following spring the paint fell off the siding in sheets. He gave a brief history of his experience with the hoine. Mrs. Lord said this is why they »eed Mr. Schumann on the board, because he has experience with the things they are discussing. VII.
