HERITAGE PRESERVATION COMMISSION
The Heritage Preservation Commission met December 5, 1988 in the Council
Chambers of City Hall.
Present: Ray Zaworski, Dick Hauer, Maurice Stenerson, Maureen Lodge, Shirley
Tibbetts.
Others Present: Ann Pung - Terwedo.
Nor Present: Marlene Workman, Terry Alliband.
1. The Commission discussed the Stillwater /Houlton Bridge Historical and
Archeological Impact Study. They agreed that the report gave an adequate
analysis of all historical and archeological sites for each bridge alternative
stated, as they pertained to Stillwater. However, Mr. Stenerson felt that the
Mortimer Webster House, the Freighthouse, and the Wolf Brewery will be most
impacted if a Central Corridor route is chosen. These sites are National
Register sites and potential National Register sites which play an important
role to the historic beauty of Downtown Stillwater and the residential
neighborhoods which face the river.
2. Volunteers for the Design Review Committee from Heritage Preservation
Committee are Maureen Lodge and Dick Hauer.
3. Mark Bowers, a local resident who is presently conducting a survey of
Stillwater's Original City, met with the Commission to present a proposal.
This proposal is to help finance Mr. Bowers to purchase a computer system in
order to gather historical data. This data is scattered throughout Stillwater,
the St. Croix Valley, and Washington County. The Commission felt it was a good
idea. Ann Terwedo was directed to help Mr. Bowers look into the possibility of
applying for a CLG grant to finance his project. The Commission supports his
efforts and will assist Mr. Bowers in any reasonable way.
The meeting adjourned at 8:45 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
Ann Pung - Terwedo
