HPC — Feb. 2017
After the weather caused us to cancel both our December & January meetings we are
now back and open from 1-3 Monday thru Thursday afternoons.
The February meeting yesterday brought 2 new members to the group. Darlene & Gary
Stiecks, who lead the tours for 3rd graders through city hall. They are enthusiastic,
experienced & younger than most of us! (& we ate the Christmas cookies that had been
kept in the freezer by Carol.)
During the break we provided information to a student at ISU on Lettie Johnesse
McFadden, early Meridian representative to the Idaho Legislature — The student had her
included in a list of suffragettes in Idaho — which we did not have or know about.
We received a nice memorial donation in memory of member Robert Gamble.
The local paper ceased publication since our last meeting.
Yesterday's program covered early irrigation & was from the 1929 Statesman — which
pointed out that some of the earliest investors were English & expected gold to be a
side product in the irrigation scheme. I had not heard this before, but there is a map
accompanying the article, a copy of which has been enlarged & turned over to the
planning department since it included both Five & Ten mile creeks as well as the placer
mining area 40 miles away. The map date is 1897.
We also now have a good copy of the first Meridian Village water system bludprint,
thanks to the Matt in the city planning department — this will be used along with the 1910
census & other sources to hopefully locate residences & business buildings.
Tomorrow, from 1-3 we will be putting away articles in the archives room from 2016
Historic Preservation month as well as other items. The new members plan to attend —
Darlene said they had yet to see the basement -

historic character” )
Restoration ( “take it back to a specific period” )

SoI’s Standards
1.A property shall be used for its historic purpose or be placed
in a new use that requires minimal change to the defining
characteristics of the building and its site and environment.
2.The historic character of a property shall be retained and
preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of
features and spaces that characterize a property shall be
avoided.
3.Each property shall be recognized as a physical record of its
time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of
historical development, such as adding conjectural features or
architectural elements from other buildings, shall not be
undertaken.
4.Most properties change over time; those changes that have
acquired historic significance in their own right shall be
retained and preserved.

❖ Contribution to Historic Preservation

addition, or remodel of an existing building
