Session 1710, Minutes <br />November 3, 1997 <br /> <br />PRESENTATION - HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION: <br /> <br />Mr. Paul Marsh, chairman of the Historic Preservation Commission, wished to <br />report to Council on what had been done with the money given to them over the <br />last few years and to also thank them for their support. Two years ago the <br />Commission had applied for two grants, one of which was to prepare a national <br />register nomination for the Maryland Terrace subdivision, the other grant was to <br />develop and write a historic significance book about University City. The Maryland <br />Terrace grant is expected to be approved by the State with a recommendation to <br />the Department of the Interior that the subdivision be granted National Register <br />status. Univers/ty C/ty Landmarks and H/stor/c P/aces is the title of the historic <br />significance book spoken of earlier. The Commission wanted to show, not only the <br />landmarks of University City, but also areas of historic interest and architectural <br />interest. Judy Little authored the book, and many commission members and city <br />staff helped them see it to fruition. <br /> <br />Ms. Judy Little said that this project helped her realize that the City and Council <br />had such a tremendous responsibility in making the decisions that effect the <br />makeup of the City. She felt that the City really has done an excellent job planning <br />and building a first rate city, which is evident throughout the City. <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER'S REPORTS: <br /> <br />CONSENT CALENDAR (5 ITEMS): <br /> <br /># I - Baseball Backstops for Heman Park: Bids have been received to provide two <br />baseball backstops for Heman Park. $8,000 was budgeted for this purchase.
