BACKGROUND The City Council reinstated the Historic District Commission on May 6, 2006 by Res. No. 78-06. Planning staff has applied for and received a Certified Local Government (CLG) grant for the past three years to pay for the Historic District Commission's and Staff's travel and training related to historic preservation. The 2008-2009 'grant was $7,500, and enabled a staff member to attend a quarterly CLG meeting in North Little Rock, two staff members and one commissioner to attend the National Historic Preservation Conference in Tulsa, and one staff member and three commissioners to attend the State Conference in Eureka Springs. These conferences have increased Staff's and the Commission's knowledge and skills of methods to promote and achieve historic preservation in a community. With limited funding to distribute among an increased number of Certified Local Governments this year, the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program designated the City of Fayetteville with $5,000 for travel and training. Additionally, the City was awarded $500 to assist the Public Education and Outreach Committee of the Historic District Commission to produce brochures intended to educate the public on the City's historic sites and architecture in order to create a greater awareness of the City's assets. BUDGET IMPACT The City will provide in-kind services for approximately $5,862 in the form of staff time. Dara Sanders, Current Planner, will spend 15% of her time administering the grant.
