Roll Call and Declaration of a Quorum Roll call was taken, and Chairman Silver noted that a quorum was present. PRESENT: Commissioners Conway [arrived late], Dawson, Kramer, Pappas, and Chairman Silver ABSENT: Commissioner Wendy ALSO PRESENT: Ms. Lisa Porter, Staff Liaison Approval of Minutes Chairman Silver asked for corrections or comments to Minutes of the Historic Preservation Commission meeting of September 25, 2006. [Commissioner Conway arrived.] Page one, fifth paragraph, should be deleted and replaced with the following: “There are two different historic labels for a building in Glencoe: a building may be designated historic and the other is certified historic. In order for a house to be certified, it must first be designated historic with the owner’s consent. It is then registered with the County Recorder of Deeds and is henceforth protected from demolition. If the owner wishes for an alteration permit, the Village of Glencoe requires a review. A building permit rebate is given if the building is modified appropriately. There are presently eight certified homes in Glencoe. In Glencoe a certified (the higher classification) historic house is a building classification which prohibits changing the building without prior approval. Buyers do have concerns about buying a certified house but the homes do sell well, we are told. In Glencoe buyers of historic designated homes usually do appropriate remodeling for big dollars. Commissioner Kramer moved to approve the September 25, 2006 Minutes as amended. Commissioner Pappas seconded the motion. Upon voice vote the motion carried 3-0.
