History Tour Mr. Neville said the History Tour was going to be part of the Pioneer Days event through the Olmsted Historical Society. However, for the next event, OHS will be including the gas engine show in the event so the event name will change. The committee drafted responses to some of the grant application questions. Mr. Aspery said the grant application is due September 4th. City Council is in the process of approving the project budget and allowing the grant application to be submitted. OHS will lead the event and the City will supplement to help cover the tour costs. Centennial Home Program Mr. Aspery reviewed the handout covering the program policy decisions and properties requiring further research. The guideline reviews online and in-person research tools available. He asked the commission how they want divide the research among themselves and what they would like to do with the information after it is found. Mr. Morse would like to finish the list of properties he had lett and volunteered to go to the County Archives. Mr. Kearney would like to go to the Archives during October or later and Ms. Egan -Reeves would be able to go during the day. Mr. Morse suggested getting the names of the property owners around the time they are researching to effectively use the time at the Archives. At the Archives, members will need to find property owner names and determine when the home was built based on the property values, some of which may be inconclusive and will need further research. Mr. Aspery suggested splitting the list up between Mr. Morse, Mr. Kearney and Ms. Cardarelli. Mr. Morse volunteered to review some of the online research tools with commission members at the next meeting if they are interested.
