IV. DISCUSSION
A. Discussion of Façade Improvement Grant Program
Planning Manager Don Burt explained that the Historic Facade Improvement
Program is designed to encourage the historic renovation of buildings in the
downtown, regardless of the era. Since implementation of the program there has
been minimal interest in historic preservation vs. non-historic facade
improvements. The Commission discussed at a previous meeting the options of
opening the program up to a broader array of facade improvements. He
presented modifications to the Historic Building Facade Grant Program with
references to the term historic removed. The Commission would still be
responsible for approval of any applications for the program in regards to design.
The Commission agreed with the recommendations and directed staff to return
with a final version for adoption.

Mr. Burt explained that every year the Urban Renewal District is required to
publish a report showing any impacts to affected taxing districts in regards to the
program. He explained that money was spent on regular budgeted services, the
Hwy 99 Streetscape and Walgreen Streetscape reimbursement.
Tax increment revenue collections have been increasing, but are still negligible
when placed in the context of property tax collections by all affected taxing
districts. The overall impact on affected taxing districts for FY15-16 amounted to
$0.0019 per dollar of property tax revenue collected by affected taxing districts.
The most significant impact is to the city of Central Point at approximately $0.014
per dollar of property tax revenue collected, followed by the School District and
the Fire District.
Mike Quilty moved to approve Resolution No. 2017-01 Accepting the
Annual Financial Report for Fiscal Year 2016-17. Taneea Browning seconded.
Roll call: Hank Williams, yes; Bruce Dingier, yes; Taneea Browning, yes;

B. Consideration of Resolution No. 2017-02 Approving a Historic
Facade Grant for the Property at 411-415 East Pine Street, Rhonda
Broderick, Applicant
Mr. Burt explained that the Development Commission has received a request for
a Historic Facade Improvement Grant for 411 East Pine Street. According the
Assessor's records the building was constructed in 1958 of concrete block and
stucco surfacing. At one time the building was used as the US Post Office. The
building does not have any recorded historical or architectural significance.
The applicant has repainted the building and installed a new corrugated metal
awning and parapet wall above the awning. Metal and plastic awnings are not
eligible for reimbursement, nor is the new construction of the parapet.
The estimated total cost for the improvements to the building was $19,952. The
only qualifying improvements are the painting and related labor. When adjusted
for the improvements qualifying for the grant the estimated qualifying amount
totals $4,310 with a reimbursement amount of $2,155. Authorization from the
Commission regarding this application will allow staff to proceed with
disbursement of funds upon verification of qualifying receipts.
There was discussion regarding the application process and noted that the two
applications received have been submitted after the work has been completed.
The program states that no work can begin on the project until
contracts/agreements are properly executed by the Development Commission.
Unless instructed otherwise the staff will strictly adhere to this requirement.
Mike Quilty moved to approve Resolution No. 2017-02 approving a Historic
Facade Grant for the Property at 411-415 East Pine Street, Rhonda
Broderick, Applicant. Rob Hernandez seconded. Roll call: Hank Williams, yes;
