comment on and edit before bringing a final before the commission in
November.
b. Welcome New Commissioner: Ella Kramer
E. Kramer shared a few facts about herself and the commissioners
welcomed her.
c. Children's Museum Update by Jacy Jones
J. Jones gave a brief history of the Children's Museum committee and
where they are today. The idea originated with Susan Mahoney, from the
Boise Rotary Club. The committee's target location is downtown. They
want the museum to be based on Meridian's history and emphasize
hands-on learning and STEM components in the exhibits. J. Jones will
give a presentation to Council on 11/9/16, and can follow up with HPC at
their November meeting.
d. Heritage Homes Tour Report by Dawn Cronk
D. Cronk shared about the recent Heritage Homes Tour that she
participated in. She was impressed with Preservation Idaho's event overall
and enjoyed seeing those homes that were well preserved and the
commitment from the owners to keep their homes well maintained to
reflect the period that they were built. H. Bodnar was able to volunteer for
the event and agreed with D. Cronk's comments. There may also be a
way for us to hold a similar event in Meridian by partnering with
Preservation Idaho.
e. Meridian Library — Local Chronical Project
H. Bodnar shared the email correspondence from unBound's Nick Grove
regarding their undertaking of the Meridian Chronical Project. B. Johnston
asked if this project conflicts with J.Evart's TourBuddy proposal. J. Evarts
said there is not conflict. L. Hill was concerned about sharing photos that
the Historical Society could otherwise sell for revenue that could support
their archives. J. Evarts and H. Bodnar will talk to Nick Grove to see what
role the Historic Preservation Commission will play, how to respect the
Historical Society and possibly help generate donations for them.

f. Preservation Leadership Forum Group Membership
H. Bodnar shared that during a recent webinar, we learned that only
Forum members can receive grants through the National Trust for Historic
Preservation. She presented the membership cost of $250 for a year and
asked HPC if they would be interested in becoming members. J. Evarts
recommended that HPC become members. J. Jones said that there is
always value from memberships, even just to be included in newsletters.
Motion to approve $250 for Preservation Leadership Forum Group
Membership through the NTHP by J. Evarts; seconded by J. Jones — all
ayes — motion carried.
g. Fiscal Year 2017 Certified Local Government Grants
H. Bodnar shared information on Idaho State CLG Grants. J. Jones asked
that H. Bodnar follow up with Reta Cunningham in Finance to get her input
on the grant, including dates, amounts, etc. and then call for a
subcommittee to meet to discuss further. J.Jones, J. Evarts volunteered to
serve on the subcommittee. B. Johnston asked to be cc'd on emails.
h. Historic Preservation Month May 2017 Theme: "Story Tellers"
L "If This Property Could Talk" Planning
HB presented an idea for signage using a -frame signs and
coroplast inserts that would work with signs already owned by other
City agencies. JJ recommended that we go for it. JE agreed that
this is a must -do investment. LH said that the historical society has
records of people's memories that could be included. JE said we
should start working on design, HB will email JE dimensions so that
Bryce can bring back design concepts for December. BN will follow
up with Legal to see if there is any conflict with our agreement with
ACHD.
7. Old Business
a. Tour Buddy Budget and Project Plan
J. Evarts introduced Nic Herman, CVCS Class President, who volunteered
to help with the TourBuddy app as part of his senior project. J. Evarts and
N. Herman shared a PowerPoint presentation on the project with the
commission and stood for questions. Commission was in favor of moving
forward with this project as presented, but B. Nary recommended that this
presentation be shared with City Council. H. Bodnar will add J. Evarts and
N. Herman to the City Council agenda for 11/1/16. Motion that pending
approval from City Council, HPC approves NTE $3,500 for initial year of
app implementation by J. Jones, seconded by D. Cronk.

Reoccurring agenda item, B. Johnston asked if the commissioners had
any potential listings to share. No properties were suggested or shared.
c. Inventory Property Review for Accurate GIS Listings
J. Jones recommended that rather than chipping away at updating this
inventory list, that HPC request a summer intern through the City's Youth
Work Life Skills Program. The commission agreed that this would be an
effective way to update the inventory. H. Bodnar will send a request to HR.

since R. Mortensen, former Vice -President has stepped down, B. Nary
recommended that the commission nominate someone else to run the next
meeting. Motion that J. Evarts serve as the interim vice president for the
remainder of 2016 by J. Jones, seconded by D. Cronk — roll called. J. Jones, aye;

HPC — Oct. 2016
Once again it's time for the third graders to visit — We have provided once gain information on
objects on display — The few accompanying parents that I have observed I don't think have read
the information in advance — some carry a copy in their hands.
We have joined with the Meridian library district on a program that will enable them to direct
more people to the History Center. They have been given permission to pick from the
Centennial calendar photos and the post cards for a few photos to use.
We hope in the near future to be able to have hard glossy copies of the photos scanned & on the
city computers for our files. We have matt photo paper — but no glossy photo paper and would
ask HPC for permission to get a supply of glossy photo paper out of the available funds
allocated to the History Center.
A new alphabetical surname index for the head of households in Idaho in the 1910 census has
been added to our shelves. Land ownership records from Meridian are still being collated within
each early subdivision. Carol is currently working on the 1940 census. (The last one currently
available.)
We may again hold some basic genealogy meetings for local early families and start a small
collection of genealogy books —
A couple of personal items — if I may -
We received an invitation to the "Idaho Premier History Event" — Carrie Cartee, daughter of
Layfayette Cartee, was an early Boise pianist went to NY & while there purchased two Weber
grand pianos — one of which was for herself — it eventually found it's way to the Idaho State
Historical Society storage & had rested there, unplayed for many years. Over 2 years ago it was
re -introduced to the local music leaders. It has now been fully restored & will be heard for the
first concert with Del Parkinson on Oct. 27, 2016 at the Esther Simplot Performing Arts
Academy. $65 with Silent Auction, No -Host cocktails and Heavy Hors d'oeuvres.
But this is a classic example of what could go wrong when there are too many cooks for the
soup —
Invitations were issued by the Historical Foundation group — they indicate that there will be the
story of Carrie's piano by Paul Schiller, the restorer— only they didn't invite Paul! I haven't
talked to him since last Saturday when he tuned my piano — naturally he was upset!
So I said I still had some acquaintances & did he care if I told — so after an e-mail to Elizabeth
Jacox & Barbara Perry Bower, sisters & Idaho premier historical researchers & one from them
to Jody Hawley Ochoa on the State Historical Society Staff — I think it is resolved!
Somebody slipped up & didn't follow through
Paul, the piano restorer is the Steinway representative for this area — a gifted musician who
Idaho is lucky to have — But, he said to me that when he was just out of college & reported to his
first job in the east — he was addressed as Sir — here in Idaho he's "just a piano technician" &
that is lower on the totem pole than piano tuner! Let's hope it is resolved successfully.
Now that Frank Thomason & Dr.Tom are no longer with this group assembled and the two of
them & I started at the same time on the Meridian HPC. I'm beginning to have serious thoughts
about no longer contributing my column of over 26 years for the Meridian paper. Fingers don't
type as accurately as they once did — but I'd share a few facts (more or less)
Those 1352 weekly articles — (more or less)
Took probably more than 4 hours a month to gather, locate, type, proof, print, staple, deliver —
with approximately 5,408 hours of time donated — I've used 6+ reams of paper, 1560 staples —
ink?? Computers — Mac & track printer , to clone — laptop — tablet & non connected printer —
But look at all the things we have learned!
The first years — in fact until we moved into this building, the newspapers were stored in my
fruit room, having been given custody them by the Idaho State Historical Society after they were
offered them by the then current owner who needed to move them to another storage site and
rather quickly. Dr. Doug Rutan used them for his Doctoral Thesis on the Meridian School
District. Now they reside in the society storage downstairs in archive boxes where they can be
accessed by society volunteers — the public is encouraged to use the archived copies on
microfilm at the ISHS — but, we do have a reader and a copy of the first reel of the microfilm in
the History Center.

IDAHO CERTIFIED LOCAL
GOVERNMENT GRANT PROGRAM
FY17 CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
30 September 2016
Dear Idaho Certified Local Governments,
The Idaho State Historic Preservation Office {SHPO) is pleased to announce that we
are now accepting Certified Local Government (CLG) Grant applications for FY17!
We expect federal funds available for FY17 will remain level, which means we expect a
total of just over $70,000 to be available for CLG Grants. This represents 10% of the
total funds available to Idaho for historic preservation from the National Park Service
and the Department of the Interior.
Instructions for submitting an application are in the Idaho Certified Local Government Grant
Manual, available on-line at the web site of the Idaho State Historical Society:
www.histo r.idaho. oy. The handbook contains examples of acceptable projects and
the allocation formula for distribution of funds. SHPO staff are available to assist with
any aspect of the application process.
As a reminder, beginning with FY17, the Idaho Certified Local Government Grants will
be reviewed on a competitive basis. This means that communities will no longer be
guaranteed funding, and it is important that CLGs carefully plan out their proposed
projects and submit a strong application. Please refer to the CLG Grant Manual for
more details on how the CLG Grant applications will be scored by SHPO.
For FY17, the Idaho CLG Grant program will prioritize funding projects in the
following areas: Survey; Historic Preservation Planning; and Commission
Education, with a specific focus on attending the 2017 Idaho Heritage Conference.
Communities can still submit project proposals in other areas; however, SHPO would
strongly encourage CLGs to keep these three (3) priority areas in mind as they develop
their proposals. Additionally, CLGs should refer the new Idaho State Historic
Preservation Plan's Goals and Objectives (attached to this call) as projects are planned.
The anticipated schedule for the Idaho CLG Grant program for FY17 is as follows:
September 30, 2016
Call for Applications Released
December 30, 2016
Applications Due
Mid -February 2017
Awards Announced

Interim Reports Due
May 31, 2018
Project Completion and Publication Drafts Due
June — August 2018
Review and Revision Period

Final Products and Reimbursement Request Due
The June 1" Project Start date is dependent on SHPO receiving its notice of funding from
the National Park Service and this date may change on any given year; CLG, will be notified
of any such changes by the CLG Coordinator.
Completed applications must be received by SHPO no later than the end of business on
December 30, 2016. Applications will also be accepted via email, provided they are received not
later than end of business on December 30, 2016. Applications must be signed by the City
Mayor/County Commission; however, they may the application sign digitally if desired.
If you need any assistance, or would like to discuss potential projects call please call me as soon as
possible at (208) 488-7471 or email me at pete.loranqe66ishs.idaho.j4oV. I am happy to help in any
way I can.

Subject: Three Important CLG Updates
Importance: High
CLGs,
There are three (3) important items I want to bring to your attention.
FY17 CLG Grants
This is a reminder that beginning in FY17 (which starts October 1"), we will be moving to a new CLG Grant distribution
model. Instead of the population -based system we have be using, the grants will now be COMPETITIVE! This will mean
that you can apply for more money, but that not necessarily everyone will receive funding every time they apply. Also,
we are moving to a 2 -year grant cycle. Here are the dates for FY17:
Applications Released
October 1, 2016
Applications Due
December 31, 2016
Announce Award Recipients
February 16, 2017
Contracts Mailed
March 1, 2017
Project Start Date
June 1, 2017 (depending on award from NPS)
Interim Report Due
November 1, 2017
Project Completion Date
May 31, 2018
Review and Revision Period
June —August, 2018
Final Submission Date
September 1, 2018
Remember, with the move to this 2 -year cycle, we no longer be able to give extensions on the CLG Grants, so plan
accordingly. Those who do not receive funding in FY17 will be given priority in FY18.
2017 Idaho Archaeology and Historic Preservation Month
We had a very successful Idaho Archaeology and Historic Preservation Month is past May, but we're already getting
geared up for the next one!
For the 2017 Idaho Archaeology and Historic Preservation Month, which will again be in May 2017, the theme is "Story
Tellers." How do our archaeological and historic resources tell the stories of Idaho and our communities?
We are asking that our CLG partners be thinking about, and starting plan for, what kind of events you want in your areas
and how you can help facilitate those events. And we're asking that you think beyond just having a couple of lectures.
What kind of EVENTS can you think of? Is there a special TOUR you want to have someone put on? And who would that
be? Really be thinking about how to actively engage your communities and bring them into these events. We can
certainly help you with coming up with ideas, but as the local advocates for historic preservation, we're counting on you
to take a lead in your communities and make this year's Idaho Archaeology and Historic Preservation Month another
major success!
Save the Date: 3rd Idaho Heritage Conference!
The dates and location for the 3`d Idaho Heritage Conference have been set! The conference will run from September
20-23, 2017, in Boise. This is a great training opportunity for all of our Commission members — and you CAN apply for
CLG Grant funds to help pay for it! Right now, we are looking at an opening reception on the evening of Wednesday the
20th. The Conference will then run Thursday and Friday (21St and 22"d), with some optional, affiliated events on Saturday
the 23`d (such as the ASI Board meeting, and 2017 Idaho Historic Sites Review Board meeting). We are working on
identifying potential field trips, and for the first time, we're planning on having a series of half-day, hands-on workshops.
More details will be coming in the future, but be sure to mark your calendars for this!
And, as always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me!
