T he Heritage P reservation C ommission needs to approve the "official" communication to city council. O nce approved, the advisory communication will go on the consent agenda of a future city council meeting. AT TAC HME N T S: Description Century Homes Advisory Communication Date: November 7, 2022 To: City Council From: Heritage Preservation Commission Subject: Heritage Preservation Commission Advisory Communication Situation: The HPC has completed the following 2022 work plan item: Initiative Title: Explore the development of a century home program in Edina based on programs in other cities; define the resources needed to manage a potential program in the future. Deliverable: Information and a recommendation for a future century home program in Edina. Background: A Commissioner learned about Century Home Programs while attending a State Preservation Conference in St. Cloud in 2019. The model presented is utilized in various forms nationwide: - owners of properties that are at least 100 years old prepare a very brief report sharing what they know of their home’s history, - they submit the form to city staff, HPC, Historical Commission or combination thereof, along with payment to cover the expense of a plaque they will receive to display, - communities utilize and celebrate the history of these homes in various ways. While the workflow was designed so that a potential Edina Century Homes program could be ready to launch in 2024, concurrent with the centennial of the Country Club District, the program is intentionally a means to spotlight heritage resources in other areas of the city. Assessment: The subcommittee researched models from seven Minnesota communities and developed the attached presentation. A Century Home Program would require very modest staff work or city expense, yet provide numerous opportunities to achieve the City’s stated preservation goals. The HPC enthusiastically responded to the presentation and offered detailed feedback. Two notable updates to the Opportunity Statement, listed fully in the presentation’s appendix: 1. Community Connection: In late August we received this enthusiastic response from Molly McIntosh, Executive Director of the Edina Historical Society, “our board is very motivated to help out, myself included!” EHS-HPC collaboration is a stated goal of the Comprehensive Plan. One board member is eager to lead Century Home walking tours. 2. Environmental Impact: Each commission has been asked to consider a 2023 work plan item that advances the city’s climate agenda. Despite conventional wisdom, the oldest building is often the greenest, when the full carbon impact of materials, demolition, and new construction are considered along with the carbon impact of building operations. Page 2 Next Steps: The HPC will be proposing the following work plan item for 2023: Initiative Title: Finalize and approve all elements and expenses of a Century Home recognition program to launch in 2024, in collaboration with the Edina Historical Society. Deliverables: Text and design for web page, plaque, applications materials, community outreach flier, and project management guidelines. Create and approve associated budget.
