NEW BUSINESS
1. °Tree Inventory update: HPB Member Blake recommended adding two oak trees
located at 14589 S. Bascom- Avenue to the tree inventory. Staff explained that
adding trees to the tree inventory is not the same as the heritage tree list, and
therefore the tree would not be protected. The HPB acknowledged this, pointing out .
that this is an honorary.recognition of the owner's work to keep the tree in good
health. Staff will send a letter to the owner thanking them for their preservation of the
tree and acknowledging the city's recognition.
OLD BUSINESS

Historic Preservation. Vice Chair Foulkes will watch the webinar online (prior to
October 1 st) in order to fulfill his training for the year.

the home to -the Eligibility List (4-0-1, Kendall absent). Staff will send the owner a
letter notifying them of the HPB's decision to add their home to the' Eligibility List,
reiterating that inclusion on the Eligibility List does not subject them to the provisions
of the Historic Preservation Ordinance.

Kennedy Tract area to the Eligibility List, or recommending that the City .Council
adopt an area plan overlay for the neighborhood, or making the area a -historic
district. The HPB acknowledged that making the area a historic district'would require
approval of at least 60% of the homeowners.
