4 AND 5 CP TH!S AFPLICATIO~.
In recommending members for the Historic Preservation COT~ssion,
the Historic Florida Keys Foundation was careful to nominate those
who would fulfill the CLG requirements and complement each other'~
contributions. The biggest challenge to this goal has been
finding educated, qualified professiona15 -- who are l~,ited in
number and are often busy with many other commitments -- who are
also willing to take on a long-term, public commitment to this
sprawling county's historic preservation prog~am.
It was a very high priority to find an architect to serve, but two
professionals in that field declined being appointed (due to heavy
workloads and other commitments) before we found one who was
willing and able. We are also very fortunate to have a Ph. D.-
trained archaeologist on the board, who also is the Historic
Preservation Planner for the City of Key West. Other members,
very strong on community organizing and procedural due process,
have graduate training in anthropology and public administration.
8. BriEfly descr~be your sys~e~ for survey and ~nven~cry of local nlG~orLc
resources.
Our first task is to gather and review existing survey
i~fo~atio~, from state and local files and reports. Diane
S~lv1a, Al~ce Allen, and George Born have already begun this
process. Born and Silvia can fill obvious omissions in site file
information, as they meet Federal qualifications ior historic
preservation surveys. Alice ~llen, chair of the HPC, has
expressed an interest in making some field trips to historic sites
in Monroe County.
~eyond t~is lies the challenge of developing a recording and
~nfor.rnat1on system that is coordinated with the County's land and
b~ilding permit records. Finally, a comprehensive {re)survey of
h~stor~c resources in unincorporated Monroe County may be
undertaken.

Na~1onal Register progra~ ~nc deta1l ho~ pub11e p~rt~c~patlo~ requ1re-
cen~s w~ll be carried out 1n ~ne local government's review of Nat10cal
Reg~ster no~~nat1ons.
We wi~l encourage property o\~ers to pursue National Rogister
designation if they are eligible, fielding their inquiries and
explaining the benefits of listing. AS we are fully accustomed to
having properly noticed public hearings for other items reviewed
by the fipe, it is little added burden to invite public
participation in the review of National Register nominations.
10. Briefly 4escrlbe ~ny you are seeklng certlflcat1on.
Certification has been a long-term goal of Monroe County since
adopting the Comprehensive Plan a r.uITber of years ago. County
government, non-profit advocacy groups, and citizens at large have
been working toward a better County historic preservation program
for many years. CLG standards have provided a needed framework to
guide these efforts toward an end that follows legally defensible,
proven models. Now that we have a new historic preservation
ordinance, we still strive toward state and Federal standards as
the various aspects of the program go into effect.
11- Are you plann~ng ~o apply for Certlfied Local Government subgrants?
YES X KO li yes. br~efly describe the purposa of ~hc proposed
C~~cif~~d Lo~_l Government subgrant request.
Several purposes could be fulfilled through grant applications*
. An integrated, streamlined information system accessible tram a
number of different locations is needed for handling data about
historic properties and sharing it with Monroe County offices, the
Historic Florida Keys Foundation, and the general public.
. A comprehensive (re)survey of historic resources in
unincorporated Monroe County is long overdue.
. A locally applicable interpretation of the Secretary of the
Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic
Buildings.would be a convenience to the general public, to County
staff, and to the fiPe.
. Public educational opportunitiee in historic preservation for
every audience are lacking here -- for students, county staff,
members of the fiPe, and the general public.
