Map #1 is highlighted and indicates the entire Butternut Ridge Road from the north side of Lorain at the intersection of Porter to the southeast intersection of Old Columbia Road, prior to relocating Route 252. Map #2 shows contributing properties of the Butternut Ridge Road Historic District which they had to identify in order to meet a criteria of 50% of the properties being 50 years of age or older. Those two maps are in the Landmarks files. They will be copied in order for the Office of Commissions to respond to Mr. Halleen in regard to the actual boundaries of the historic district. His recollection of Mr. Halleen's first application for the KIA dealership referred to two maps. Mr. Lang's suggestion is that neither of those two maps are the two inaps he just referred to. If either or both of them are, he knows one happened to be the moratorium which had to come from some source, it may have come from one of these two maps. However, the maps he just referred to, maps #1 and #2, are included in the application for the historic district and this was approved. The maps were not a part of but were mentioned in the creation of the historic district on June 17, 1986. It was approved unanimously by City Council. Mrs. Lord requested that Mrs. Kilbane give a copy of the maps to Mrs. Rote so it remains in the Office of Commissions should this discussion come before the board again. • Letter to Mayor Musial regarding the Commission's support of the Heritage Home Loan Program Mrs. Lord said she is uncertain about whether the city made any inquiry into the Heritage Home Loan Program. She indicated there was concern about the short time frame to get things done. She referred to the letter that was sent to the Mayor. She has not heard anything further so she presumes the city is not joining the program. She said perhaps now with knowledge of the program, they can pursue it next year. Mrs. O'Rourke indicated it is something that the board should still pursue. Mrs. Lord pointed out they will need to know the criteria for joining. Mrs. O'Rourke said she will follow up and get more specific information on the program. Mr. Lang will supplement it with any information he finds. • Letter from the Cleveland Restoration Society regarding Heritage Hoine Loan Program • Fagade newsletter • The Local Historian Mrs. Lord mentioned an invitation to a bicentennial meeting. She indicated the closest meeting will be held in Fairview Park on February 4th at 5:30 p.m. She asked if anyone was interested in attending. There is also a regional meeting on the 26t'. Mrs. Lord mentioned other meeting dates and locations. Mrs. Lord indicated the board members all received a copy of the signed ordinance relating to minor changes in the historic district. She said they need to officially set up procedures for the Chairman. Mr. Corell said that was informally done with the idea that the Chairman and two other members would vote on minor changes. Mrs. Lord asked if it should be two designated parties that the Chairman would call. It was decided they would have two designees and the remainder of the Commission would be alternates if someone is unavailable. G. Corell made a motion to name two designated members of the Commission to support the Chairman with the minor change procedure. The designations are for a year at a time beginning in January. In the event that one or both of the designees is unavailable, the Chairman will access other members of the Commission in alphabetical order. In the absence of the Chairman the Vice Chairman will be notified. The motion was seconded by T. Dubowski and unanimously approved. Mrs. Lord said there is now a procedure for the Commission's expedited review. They now need to select the support people for this role. Mr. Dubowski and Mrs. O'Rourke agreed to be the contacts for this review process. 2
