Address (Optional) : GOOD EVENING CHAIRMAN MORSCH, COMMISSIONERS AND STAFF. I WISH TO THANK OUR HISTORIC PRESERVATION AD HOC COMMITTEE MEMBERS RUTH ATKINS, TIM FLEMING, LINDA RIDENOUR AND CHARLENE CLEARY FOR VOLI.]NTEERING THEIR TIME IN ATTENDING MEETINGS AND CONDUCTING RESEARCH FOR THIS COMMITTEE. OUR SPECIAL APPRECIATION TO RICHARD MCHOTT FOR HELPING US REACH THE GOALS ESTABLISHED IN THE RESOLUTION. You have received copies of the report and attachments from the committee. I will just emphasis some of the important facts in the report. This committee was established to evaluate and make recommendations regarding historic preservation within the City of Lake Elsinore. Lake Elsinore is remarkably rich in history and there are many properties of architectural and historic significance. The committee wants the city to promote historic preservation, which will bring tourists and visitors to enjoy Main Street and other areas where there are historical buildings and sites in our city. 28. 1982 the one was nev Therefore, the following are the committee's recommendations: l. The committee recommends that a separate Historic Preservation Commission be established consisting of seven commissioners and four alternates. Four members and two alternate members should be appointed for a four-year term and three members and two alternates should be appointed for a two-year term. Thereafter, appointments will be for four year terms. This Historic Preservation Commission will report to the Planning Commission any subject concerning historic preservation of buildings, structures, bridges, trees, etc. The Planning Commission will report to the City Council. It is noted that numerous cities have Historic Preservation Commissions. 2.The Historic Preservation Commission would work with the Planning Commission, Building Department, Code Enforcement, Abandoned Residential and Properfy Registration Dept., Inspection Dept., Public Safefy, Lake Elsinore Historical Society and City Council to achieve the duties outlined in the report. 3. The last surveys conducted were the 1980 Historic Resources Inventory for Lake Elsinore by the Riverside County Parks Department as the result of the study being financed under the National Historic Preservation Act. a Historic established. 5. 6. 4^.second survey was completed in 1990 by Vick Knight of The Elsinore Valley Community Development Corp. This survey was funded by a grant from the Lake Elsinore Redevelopment Agency. 4. On March 12,l99l Vick Knight presented the Lake Elsinore City Council with a four- volume survey of historic buildings in and near the city. Mr. Knight asked the city to adopt an ordinance and presented a Proposed Historic and Scenic Preservation Ordinance No. 1954 dated June 1990, which was never adopted. An updated inventory of structures and sites is needed within the City of Lake Elsinore and its sphere of influence. It is recommended that a new survey be conducted and the two prior Historic Resource Surveys could be used to update the data on the buildings and houses in Lake Elsinore. This would include updating the Historic Stmctures and Sites Inventoried in 1990 that lists structures no longer existing since the l98l-1982 survey. The survey should include the city's 16 districts and five other districts within the sphere of influence. The Ad Hoc Committee recommends that the Lake Elsinore City Council direct city staff to prepare and adopt a Historic Preservation Ordinance and to pursue applying for a Certified Local Government Program. By achieving certified status, the city could apply for a grant to defray the cost of a new historic survey as well as participate in the state's Historic Preservation Fund. If grant funds are not obtained then the City of Lake Elsinore would have to use the city funds for an updated survey. In 1972 the Mills Act was established under which participating local governments entered into contract with owners of historic properties who agree to rehabilitate and maintain their properties. The homeowners received 40% to 60oh savings, and sometimes more, on their property taxes. The intent of the tax break is for homeowners to use the savings to keep their properties in mint condition. A qualified historic property is one that is listed on any county, state, federal or city register. In Lake Elsinore we now have eight such properties Therefore, the Ad Hoc Committee recommends that the Mills Act be incorporated into a Historic Preservation Ordinance or a Certified Local Government Program. The Mills Act has been included in the committee's proposed City of Lake Elsinore Historic and Scenic Preservation Ordinance Table of Contents, Section XIII. 7. The Ad Hoc Committee recommends that the City Council create a Certificate of Appropriateness Procedures whether any individual can restore, rehabilitate, alter, develop, construct, demolish, remove or change the appearance of any landmark or point of historical interest. This community is definitely unique in its variety of historical homes, churches, businesses, or any other historical sites including the lake, landscaping and individuals of note. History is held in these multiple entities and adds to the beauty and atmosphere of this land, city and county. A Historical Preservation Commission is needed to monitor the continuing existence of this city's heritage and everything historical in the city and sphere of influence. THANK yOU.
