The June 8, meeting of the Historic Preservation Commission was called to order in the Caldwell City
Library Idaho Room at 7:00 p.m. Roy Payne took the Chair in the absence of Steve Maughan.
The first item of business was approval of the Minutes of the May I l, 1995 meeting. Carol Burbank
offered a Motion to approve the Minutes as submitted. Tom Ensley seconded the Motion which
passed unanimously.
The next item hvolved a report on the draft nomination of the Caldwell UPRR Depot to the National
Historic Register. Dennis indicated that everything appears to be going well with the nomination.
The nomination will require approval ofthe UPRR but they have approved such requests in the past.
The Commission discussed options for a 1996 Grant project. The deadline for submitring a final
product is October l, 1995. In view ofthe lack ofa Planning and Zoning Director the Commission
were advised that a site survey is a relatively easy project. One site never surveyed is Lincoln School
which is around 50 years old and situated on a sigificant piece of property in terms of previous
ownership. This ultimately could be included as a National Historic Register nomination. Other sites
are the hair stylists building on the comer of Grant and Kimbalt and the First Christian Church on 9th
Avenue which may be sold or demolished. The former Valley Floral is being changed into a
restaurant and was the original First Nazarene Church in Caldwell. Duplexes on the north side of
Grant Street between 7th Avenue and Kimball Avenue. Other properties within the area of Kimball,
Grant, 6th and Dearbom might be of interest and could be considered threatened_
Liz will discuss the concept in more detail with Ann Swanson. Carol Burbank oflered a Motion to
consider the suggestions for a 1996 Grant project. Dean Finch seconded the Motion which passed
unanimously.
Dennis reported that the National Guard have done most ofthe work on painting the Depot and will
continue until it is finished. There was more work required than originally anticipated. Charlie
Chadwick had done some preparatory work the week prior.
