City Commission of Arkansas City Meeting Minutes

September 19, 2017 Page 1

The Arkansas City Board of City Commissioners met in regular session at 5:30 p.m. September 19, 2017, in the Commission Room at City Hall, 118 W. Central Ave., in Arkansas City. Mayor Duane L. Oestmann called the meeting to order. Those also present at roll call were Commissioner Dan Jurkovich, Commissioner Charles Tweedy III, Commissioner Jay Warren and Commissioner Karen Welch. City employees present at the meeting were City Manager Nick Hernandez, City Attorney Tamara Niles, City Clerk Lesley Shook, Public Information Officer Andrew Lawson, Finance Director Kathy Cornwell, Parks and Facilities Director Tony Tapia, Public Works Director Eric Broce, Assistant Public Works Director Mike Crandall, Fire Chief Bobby Wolfe, and Arkansas City Police Department Capt. Mark McCaslin. South Central Kansas Medical Center was represented by Chief Executive Officer Virgil Watson and Chief Financial Officer Holly Harper. The Arkalalah Executive Committee was represented by Jace Kennedy and executive secretary Tasha Bucher. Chris Meinen represented Smith & Oakes, Inc. Citizens in attendance included Kanyon Gingher, Vicki Jackson, Elizabeth Jurkovich, Rachel Jurkovich, Sarah Jurkovich, Susan Jurkovich and Ark City Daily Bytes reporter Jeni McGee. Commissioner Warren offered the opening prayer. Mayor Oestmann led the pledge of allegiance. Agenda Approval Mayor Oestmann asked to move the South Central Kansas Medical Center update to the top of the agenda under Recognition of Visitors, instead of at the end under City Manager Updates. Commissioner Tweedy made a motion to amend the agenda as requested. Commissioner Warren seconded the motion. A voice vote was unanimous in favor. Mayor Oestmann declared the agenda amended and approved. Awards and Proclamations Mayor Oestmann issued a proclamation that October 2, 2017, is National Night Out in Arkansas City. ACPD Capt. McCaslin received the proclamation on behalf of ACPD. The kickoff party will be from 5 to 8 p.m. in Wilson Park. Recognition of Visitors South Central Kansas Medical Center CFO Holly Harper presented the hospital’s July financials. Average daily census has remained above 18 for the first seven months of the year, due mainly to the Senior Health Unit. Surgeries are down 23 percent from this time last year, Harper said, but outpatients and ER visits are up slightly. There was a slight uptick in surgery production from July to August thanks to additional orthopedic surgeries. Harper showed the 2017 year-to-date financials in comparison to 2016, broken out into four categories comprising the hospital, South Central Kansas Clinic, the Senior Health Unit and the new Lab Outreach program.



The hospital operation has posted a 2017 loss of $556,750 and the clinic a loss of $78,863 after sales tax revenues of $1.5 million were added to the equation, but this was offset by profitable (and not enhanced by any sales tax) returns of $214,049 from the Senior Health Unit and $1.119 million from the Lab Outreach program. The totality of the four operations yielded a current profit of $697,328 (or a loss of $809,517 before sales tax), compared to a total loss (after tax revenues of $559,888) of just more than $1.19 million at this time last year. Commissioner Warren asked about the Lab Outreach program, which Harper referred to SCKMC CEO Virgil Watson. He said SCKMC tried the program for six months, but now administrators want to move away from it. He said the program is not a consistent revenue generator due to issues receiving payment, but an investment was made in new lab equipment that he said will be applied to other state or regional lab outreach programs. He admitted it brings a slew of commercial payers into the hospital’s overall payer mix, which helps to offset the growing Medicare/Medicaid/private payer mix that dominates at SCKMC, especially in its Emergency Department. Watson said the goal remains making SCKMC’s bonds bank-eligible by 2019. Commissioner Tweedy asked how the lab work might change. Watson said SCKMC needs to stick to the Kansas area rather than marketing nationally. City Manager Hernandez asked Harper how much revenue the recent acquisition of Winfield Medical Arts, effective October 1, might contribute to the overall operation. She estimated about $500,000 annually after it has been on board for a year, with about half of that coming from a not-yet-attained 340B pharmacy program. Hernandez pointed out that is still less than $1.1 million netted to date by the Lab Outreach program and said he was very concerned about the decision to cut off that revenue stream by discontinuing the national-level effort. He expressed doubt that a statewide or regional program will generate as much revenue as a national program. Commissioner Jurkovich asked how the program cannot be considered successful after generating $1.1 million and Mayor Oestmann said he would hate to see that much revenue just go by the wayside. Mayor Oestmann asked how SCKMC will pay the purchase cost of Winfield Medical Arts. Harper said the $600 a month will come out of clinic revenues. This does not include other costs such as physician services and rent. Commissioner Jurkovich asked why someone would sell a clinic making $500,000 a year. Harper explained that the clinic’s current Rural Health Clinic status is not hospital-based, so its reimbursement is half that ($250,000). Harper said the amount due to SCKMC from SCKC has declined ever so slightly. It now is down to $770,995. She still anticipates the clinic to be in the black by the end of the year, but it will take much longer to pay this off. Accounts receivable is up to just more than $6.1 million as of June 2017, compared with $4.96 million in December 2016, primarily due to the uptick in Medicare (up nearly $449,000) payments in the Senior Health Unit. But private pay is climbing from $1.94 million to $2.296 million, due to the Medicaid gap and high deductibles. From February 2016 to July 2017, the 121-plus-days portion of accounts payable has been eliminated completely, while the 91-120 days wedge has grown slightly from last month to $92,158. The 61-90 days part has increased from $171,661 to $177,657. Current accounts payable have risen from $717,908 to $2.096 million.



Consent Agenda Commissioner Tweedy made a motion to approve the consent agenda as presented, including the following:

1. Approving the September 5, 2017, regular meeting minutes as written. 2. Approving a temporary Cereal Malt Beverage license for Brittany Dunlap for a mixed martial arts event to

be held September 30, 2017, at the Agri-Business Building, located at 712 W. Washington Ave. 3. Ratifying Mayor Oestmann’s appointment of Curtis Freeland to the Community Spirit Award Committee.

Commissioner Tweedy asked if the security arrangements were satisfactory. City Manager Hernandez said he thought so. Capt. McCaslin said two officers will be on duty there and the setup will be inspected beforehand. Mayor Oestmann seconded the motion. A voice vote was unanimous in favor of the motion. Mayor Oestmann declared the consent agenda approved. Old Business

KanPak Industrial Revenue Bonds Resolution No. 2017-09-3127

City Clerk Shook presented for discussion a resolution amending and restating Resolution No. 2017-07-3116, determining the advisability of issuing taxable Industrial Revenue Bonds (IRBs) for the purpose of financing the acquisition, construction and equipping of a KanPak distribution facility to be located in Goff Industrial Park, and authorizing the execution of related documents. City Manager Hernandez said the only change from the resolution approved in July is that Wichita Warehouse Realty LLC now will be the official applicant. Otherwise, all of the details are the same as in the prior version. He explained that IRBs use the property taxes that would have been paid on the new facility over the next 10 years to pay off bonds issued for constructing that facility. They also provide a sales tax exemption for 10 years. Only project revenues are pledged and the City is not financially liable in any way for securing the debt, he said. Any tax exemptions would be lost if KanPak no longer is occupying the facility for its warehousing operation. Hernandez said the facility is crucial to KanPak’s long-term success and it should be operational in 18 months. Mayor Oestmann made a motion to approve the resolution. Commissioner Warren seconded the motion. A voice vote was unanimous in favor of the motion. Mayor Oestmann declared the motion approved and given Resolution No. 2017-09-3127. New Business

Election of New Mayor

City Clerk Shook presented for discussion reorganization item No. 1, the election of a new mayor.



Mayor Oestmann made a motion to elect Commissioner Jurkovich as the mayor. Commissioner Warren seconded the motion. A voice vote was unanimous in favor of the motion. Mayor Oestmann declared the motion approved. Mayor Oestmann and Mayor Jurkovich exchanged seats. Mayor Jurkovich then presented Mayor Oestmann with a plaque honoring his 17 months of service. He joked that his extended service was thanks to the Kansas Legislature, which changed the electoral calendar mid-term. Mayor Jurkovich thanked his family and the Ark City Christian Academy volleyball team he coaches for attending.

Election of Vice Mayor Mayor Oestmann presented for discussion reorganization item No. 2, the election of a vice mayor. Commissioner Tweedy made a motion to elect Commissioner Welch. Commissioner Oestmann seconded the motion. A voice vote was unanimous in favor of the motion. Mayor Jurkovich declared the motion approved.

Ben Givens Center City Park Ordinance No. 2017-09-4439

City Clerk Shook presented for discussion an ordinance exempting the application of K.S.A. 41-719(c) to allow the consumption of alcoholic liquor in a designated area of Ben Givens Center City Park during the Arkalalah Festival. City Attorney Niles said consumption would be allowed October 25-28 as part of the annual Arkalalah beer garden. This location was used last year for food vendors that will move to Fifth Avenue this year. Commissioner Warren asked if the area would be fenced off. Arkalalah Executive Secretary Tasha Bucher said that it would. The original proposal was to use the eastern half of the park, which would require closing part of the brick walk. Bottoms Up LLC will administer both this beer garden and the alcohol sales at the October 26 Arkalalah concert. Commissioner Tweedy asked about the capacity. Chief Wolfe said he will have to measure the square footage. Commissioner Warren made a motion to approve the ordinance. Commissioner Oestmann seconded the motion. A roll call vote resulted in four aye votes and one nay vote, with Mayor Jurkovich dissenting. He said he thought the location was too visible to kids, but declared the motion approved and given Ordinance No. 2017-09-4439.

Wilson Park Arkalalah Concert Ordinance No. 2017-09-4440

City Clerk Shook presented for discussion an ordinance exempting the application of K.S.A. 41-719(c) to allow the consumption of alcoholic liquor in a designated area of Wilson Park during an Arkalalah concert on October 26.



City Attorney Niles said the ordinance is identical to one passed last year, other than the dates. There were no major problems at last year’s concert. Tasha Bucher said the setup would be the same as last year’s concert. Commissioner Tweedy suggested looking at the PrairieFest configuration from earlier this year that used the tennis courts adjacent to the rotunda to cut down on intermingling of underage people with those drinking. Capt. McCaslin said he could add this event to the agenda for an Arkalalah planning meeting September 22. Commissioner Oestmann made a motion to approve the ordinance. Commissioner Welch seconded the motion. A roll call vote resulted in four aye votes, with Commissioner Warren dissenting due to a conflict of interest involving his wine sales. Mayor Jurkovich declared the motion approved and given Ordinance No. 2017-09-4440.

WTP to WWTP Waste Line Resolution No. 2017-09-3128

City Clerk Shook presented for discussion a resolution authorizing the City to enter into a contract agreement with Marsau Enterprises, of Enid, Oklahoma, for the Water Treatment Facility waste line to the Wastewater Treatment Facility, contingent upon the review and approval of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, for an amount not to exceed $1,065,212.60. Public Works Director Broce said this waste line was the last phase of the new Water Treatment Facility. The bid opening had to be delayed a week to allow for an alternate type of pipe due to price instability in the PVC pipe market in the wake of Hurricane Harvey, which damaged a factory that plays a role in PVC manufacturing. There was a big spread in bid prices, from the low bid of $1.065 million to a high bid of more than $1.57 million. Marsau’s bid uses high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe, which is black. The company has favorable references. Commissioner Warren asked how long the company has been in business. Broce said it started around 1982. This company specializes more in oil and gas pipe, but is breaking into the water line market. Broce said Marsau is doing a major pipeline project in Newkirk that involves looping the entire water system for that town. Commissioner Oestmann made a motion to approve the resolution. Commissioner Warren seconded the motion. A voice vote was unanimous in favor of the motion. Mayor Jurkovich declared the motion approved and given Resolution No. 2017-09-3128.

South Summit Inspections Resolution No. 2017-09-3129

City Clerk Shook presented for discussion a resolution authorizing the City to enter into a contract with Smith & Oakes, Inc. to provide construction observation and inspection services for the 2017 South Summit Street KLINK resurfacing project (U.S. 77 from the Arkansas River to Tyler Avenue), for an amount not to exceed $29,610.70.



Chris Meinen, of Smith & Oakes, admitted this housekeeping item probably should have come before the commissioners before now. Although asphalt has been laid, he said the project is far from being closed out soon. One reason for the delay is that many of the contracted hours were not expended on inspection services for the North Summit Street project, Meinen explained, so the company was able to apply those to South Summit Street. Public Works Director Broce said he wanted to separate the services because this project is reimbursable. Commissioner Warren made a motion to approve the resolution. Commissioner Tweedy seconded the motion. A voice vote was unanimous in favor of the motion. Mayor Jurkovich declared the motion approved and given Resolution No. 2017-09-3129. City Manager Updates City Manager Hernandez said property owner Shirley Carter has pulled a permit to repair the structure at 611 N. Seventh St. Given that development, he recommended not adding the house to the list of dangerous structures. Hernandez and Public Works Director Broce met earlier that day with the sanitation workers in the Public Services Division to discuss proposed changes, including four-day sanitation and curbside recycling, with them. Hernandez said there is a better understanding of why the changes are being proposed and the workers are buying in to how the changes might be accomplished most efficiently. That process will continue, he said. Hernandez said the Wilson Park train restoration is going well. It is being primed now, with a lot of hand work. Other Business Commissioner Warren asked Public Works Director Broce about the 15th Street reconstruction project. Broce said he is meeting with Andale Construction to set up a schedule that should commence sometime in October. Adjournment Commissioner Oestmann moved to adjourn the meeting. Commissioner Tweedy seconded the motion. A voice vote was unanimous in favor of the motion. Mayor Jurkovich declared the meeting adjourned at 6:34 p.m.

Title: Consider a Resolution authorizing an agreement with Spencer Preservation, to conduct a survey of the historic downtown commercial district in accordance with the project agreement with the State Historic Preservation Office and the historic preservation fund grant previously awarded, for an amount not to exceed $13,000.00. (Voice Vote) Description: The Downtown Commercial Historic District was surveyed and created in 1983. Many things have changed in and around the district since then. The Historic Preservation Board desired to apply for a Historic Preservation Fund grant to cover the cost of hiring a consultant to create the historic survey. Since then, the grant was applied for and awarded to the City. A request for bids was sent out to 5 potential bidders with 4 responding. Bids ranged from $12,000 to $14,500. A bid tab is included in the packet. The Historic Preservation Board met on Monday, September 25 and voted to recommend Spencer Preservation be selected as the consultant. Spencer Preservation’s bid was not the lowest but the board felt that with the local knowledge and experience of this firm (due to work on the Osage Apartments). This bid was within the grant amount of $13,000. The consultant must meet certain qualifications and would assist with the changes to the records in the Kansas Historic Resources Inventory and potentially make recommendations for any changes to the district. This information could then be used to propose any changes to the historic district in the future and be under a separate grant. Individual properties can only be added to the Historic Registers (Local, State and National) with property owner consent and a district can only be created/modified with a majority of the property owners consenting. Public meetings will be set up to explain the process to the downtown property owners and tenants. Commission Options: 1. Approve the Resolution 2. Select another bidder 3.

TABLE OF CONTENTS Proposal Statement—3 Scope of Services and Work Plan—5 Anticipated Project Schedule—6 Consultant Qualifications: Recent Projects & References—7 Cost Proposal & Final Comment—9 Resumes—10 Sample Intensive Survey—Appendix


PROPOSAL STATEMENT This proposal is submitted by Susan Jezak Ford, owner and operator of Citysearch Preservation. Citysearch Preservation is a small preservation firm established in Kansas City, Missouri in 1997. Working as a solo contractor allows me to assess which projects to take on, their priority and to bring in staffing as needed. As a result, I am able to personalize projects in order to meet or exceed the needs of each of my clients in a timely and economical manner. The recognition and preservation of historic properties is an important step in understanding the history of a community. Historic city sites, such as downtown Arkansas City, bring together significant architecture, urban planning, landscape development and notable citizens. As a historically and architecturally significant site, downtown Arkansas City retains its own blend of history and the built environment in southern Kansas. The City of Arkansas City now has an opportunity to further explore the downtown area’s historical importance. In this survey, the significant landscapes and structures from the 1983 Arkansas City Commercial Center Historic District survey will be photographed and entered into the Kansas Historic Resources Inventory (KHRI) database with updated historical information. The identified additional buildings adjacent to the Historic District will be photographed, described, researched and evaluated for eligibility through intensive-level survey. Submission will allow the Kansas Historic Preservation Office (KHPO) to evaluate areas and each structure for historical and architectural significance and potential inclusion in the National or Kansas Register of Historic Places. Updating and adding the survey information to the KHRI database will make it easily accessible to city staff and the public. Upon positive evaluation of the survey by the KHPO, recommendations will be made regarding the nomination of individual buildings or district to the Registers. The survey’s project report will include a history of the downtown area, focusing on its built environment and cultural resources. Structures will be identified by time period, property type, architectural form and style. The report will include a description of each building in the intensive survey, as well as its area, history as available and an assessment of its eligibility for listing in the National or Kansas Register, either individually or as part of a district. The report will include a map of the surveyed properties, a map of potential historic districts and an explanation justifying the significance of the buildings. I hope to work closely with the City of Arkansas City staff, the Kansas Room of the Arkansas City Public Library, the Cowley County Historical Society Museum and local property and business owners. I will meet with the KHPO staff to discuss and determine the area’s most important attributes and history on a state or national scale. City of Arkansas City staff will be especially helpful in providing information on the development of the city. I anticipate using research resources that include Sanborn maps, Cowley County atlases, the 1901 Biographical Record of Leading Citizens of Cowley County, Kansas and the Arkansas City Historical Society’s From Trails to Turnpikes.


I bring to this project the qualifications, experience and desire to carry out this survey and project report as described in the Statement of Work. I formally completed my academic studies of architectural history in 1997, but my education has continued since then. Over the last twenty years I have completed dozens of surveys and National Register nominations. Satisfied clients included individual property owners, the Kansas Department of Transportation, municipalities and preservation organizations. Most recently, I finished another segment of rural township survey for the Douglas County Heritage Conservation Council. Through this project in place since 2012, I have surveyed hundreds of Douglas County buildings and sites. I successfully nominated Union Cemetery, Kansas City, Missouri’s oldest cemetery, to the National Register in 2015-2016. A National Register nomination for the Topeka Cemetery is under consideration at the National Park Service in Washington, D.C. I fully meet the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualifications Standards. Because I combine academic credentials with vast field experience in Kansas, I feel that I am the best candidate to carry out this project for the City of Arkansas City. Photographer Brad Finch will assist me for this project. Brad has been photographing buildings for over 35 years. He produces outstanding images and is very familiar with the requirements of an architectural survey. Our team will exceed your expectations. We are very familiar with survey work and the requirements for nominations. Our professionalism and knowledge will make this an efficient, smooth project. As a preservation professional, my goal is to build a working relationship that interprets your community's history. I will be personally responsible for the survey, historical research and preparation of inventory forms, as well as writing the project report. Monthly updates will document the progress of the project. My status as a sole contractor allows me to determine which of my projects receives precedence. If selected as your consultant, your project will be given top priority in my office. This project will be competed in a timely and efficient manner by the six-month deadline.


SCOPE OF SERVICES AND WORK PLAN The intensive survey of downtown Arkansas City will fully comply with the policies of the Kansas Historic Preservation Office (KHPO) for survey. If selected for this project, I will:

• Consult with members of the City staff and the KHPO survey and National Register staff to discuss research, identify goals and to gather information;

• Plan and present a public meeting with local property owners;

• Begin field work and research;

• Conduct the reconnaissance and intensive survey of downtown Arkansas City, assisted by Brad Finch. The survey process will include photographs, field notes, historical research and electronic mapping;

• Conduct a mid-project presentation to the Historic Preservation Board;

• Update online KHRI records for the buildings surveyed in the 1983 Arkansas City

Commercial Center Historic District survey;

• Prepare intensive online survey inventory forms for significant structures adjacent to the Arkansas City Commercial Center Historic District. The survey will be submitted to the KHPO Survey Coordinator to determine eligibility for listing in the National or Kansas Register of Historic Places;

• Conduct a final presentation to the Historic Preservation Board;

• Submit hard copy and digital copy of the survey report and digital copies of

photographs and all other materials to Arkansas City staff.


ANTICIPATED PROJECT SCHEDULE If selected as your consultant, work will begin commence immediately. The project schedule and milestones will be planned and coordinated with a City of Arkansas City representative. I usually work ahead of schedule but the proposed timeframe is as follows:

• December 1, 2017—Onset of project. Meet with KHPO and City staff. Research and field work begins.

• April 1, 2018—Reconnaissance and intensive-level survey complete and entered into KHRI. Schedule meeting with KHPO to discuss eligibility of individual buildings or district for listing in National or Kansas Register of Historic Places.

• May 1, 2018—Draft project report submitted to Arkansas City staff.

• June 1, 2018—Complete report submitted to Arkansas City staff and KHPO.


CONSULTANT QUALIFICATIONS Recent Projects & References SusanJezakForddbaCitysearchPreservation3628HolmesStreetKansasCity,[email protected] I bring academic and practical experience to this proposal. I have completed projects separately and in partnership with others similar in scope to this proposed project. Four recent projects are listed below. Rural Survey, Douglas County, Kansas. I have conducted reconnaissance and intensive surveys of hundreds of buildings in rural Douglas County townships since 2012 in partnership with preservation consultant Dale Nimz.

The cemetery was founded in 1859 and is significant in the area of Exploration and Settlement for its association with the history of early Topeka. The amended nomination expands the 2001 Topeka Mausoleum Row listing. The expanded nomination will be presented on August 12 to the Kansas Historic Sites Board of Review. Topeka Cemetery, 1601 E. 10th Avenue, Topeka, KS 66607. Contact: Tim Paris, Topeka Planning Department; (785) 368-3728; [email protected].


Mugan-Olmsted House, Lawrence, Kansas. I submitted a PSIQ and subsequent nomination to the National Register for the Mugan-Olmsted House, an 1866 Lawrence residence. The house is significant for its architecture and as an example of a residence that evolved during development patterns associated with the growth of Lawrence between 1866 and 1956. The house was listed in the National Register March 27, 2017. The nomination can be seen online at http://www.kshs.org/resource/national_register/nominationsNRDB/DouglasCounty_Mugan-OlmstedHouseNR.pdf.

II. SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE & PAST PERFORMANCE

Identifying, analyzing, and documenting the historic and architectural resources of a community is the first step towards preserving those buildings that distinguish our communities. Spencer Preservation has conducted a variety of historic inventories of downtown business districts, historic neighborhoods, and statewide property types. Historic inventories are typically the foundation of a local or National Register historic district and result in a determination of eligibility for each individual resource within the district. Spencer Preservation has surveyed over 2,500 resources in Kansas. Spencer has completed historic surveys in the Kansas communities of Council Grove, Ellsworth, Garden City, Hiawatha, Wilson, and Wichita and conducted statewide surveys of historic public schools and historic barns for the Kansas State Historical Society (SHPO). Of utmost significance are our long term relationships with our community and state partners. As you will see in the following examples, many of our efforts began with a single property or survey, but the partnerships have endured for more than a decade. As mid-century properties cross the 50-year threshold Spencer Preservation stands ready to complete additional surveys and most importantly, successful nominations in support of downtown rehabilitation efforts.

Spencer Preservation also does a significant amount of work with historic structures at Fort Riley and Fort Leavenworth Military Posts. As National Register and National Landmark Districts, work on both military posts focuses on the physical environment including natural resources and the built environment. In recent years, Spencer completed historic building surveys of more than thirty resources at Fort Leavenworth (including the old United States Disciplinary Barracks compound) and Fort Riley. Spencer typically serves as liaison between the design team, fort cultural resources staff, and the state preservation office to assist all parties in meeting their preservation goals.

The experience outlined above totals more than three decades of historic preservation knowledge and involvement with Kansas communities. Spencer Preservation is a known and trusted partner to government and commercial clients as the highlighted projects listed below illustrate.

Ash-Grove Historic District, Wichita (2016)Spencer Preservation completed nomination of the Ash-Grove Historic District on E. Douglas for a private owner who has purchased multiple properties in the block. The project included a survey followed by National Register nomination of a small commercial district. The project was remarkably similar to the Ark City project in that it including a diverse mix of commercial properties in a neighborhood commercial center reminiscent of a small downtown. We are currently working with Mr. Brennan on historic several rehabilitation projects using state and federal historic tax credits. Although completed for a private client, the district went through the Wichita/Sedgwick County Landmarks Commission. Spencer works closely with local planning staff on public and private projects in the city.

Council Grove Historic Survey and Nominations (2010, 2014, 2017) Spencer Preservation was hired by the City of Council Grove to conduct a survey of historic resources in their downtown area as the first step in identifying a potential historic district in the downtown business district (2010). Spencer completed the survey forms in the KHRI database followed by a National Register nomination for a downtown historic district.

Since the completion of the survey, Spencer Preservation, working for the City of Council Grove and their Historic Preservation Committee, completed a survey and nomination for the Hermit’s Cave (2014), a local resource affiliated with the Santa Fe Trail.

Spencer Preservation is now in the early phase of a project for the City which includes a Preliminary Site Investigation Questionnaire (PSIQ)

2200 Block of E. Douglas Avenue, recently surveyed for private property owner and included in Ash-Grove Historic District on E. Douglas Avenue, nomination to the National

Register ( October 2015)

Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) Contract Services (2014-2017)In addition to survey of historic resources for the Kansas State Historical Society and local municipalities across the state, Spencer Preservation has a standing contract with the KDOT for Historic Preservation Services that includes survey of potentially significant sites that may be impacted by proposed road development. In the past three years, Spencer has been hired to prepare Activity III reports for nine properties in five counties including Cowley (Arkansas City Bridge, 2015). The assessments include site investigation, research, and creation of records in the KSHS online survey database culminating in a determination of eligibility for listing on the National Register. This three-year contract was renewed in 2016 for the third time.

Lindsborg, KS Rosberg-Holmgren-Clareen Block, Lindsborg (2016) Spencer Preservation completed the survey for the KHRI database and a successful National Register Nomination for the Clareen-Peterson Restaurant located at 113 Main Street in Lindsborg, KS in 2009. In 2016, Spencer was asked to nominate two other buildings on the same side of Main Street. Only after extensive research was it discovered that the relationship between the buildings that housed the Holmgren/Lindsborg Grocers and Berggen Tailor Shop at 109 and 111 had enough shared architectural history that they should be joined together in the Rosberg-Holmgren-Clareen Block at 113. Spencer Preservation has been working with the Lindsborg community in their downtown rehabilitation efforts for almost a decade.

Project Contact: Jim Prugh, property owner, [email protected] , 303-988-2151

City of Wichita (2008)The City of Wichita hired Spencer Preservation to complete an inventory of the remaining un-surveyed properties in downtown Wichita. The project, which was completed in two phases, involved more than 600 commercial and residential properties. Spencer also completed a survey of a 27-block area for Sedgwick County to identify historically-significant properties for consideration in locating the proposed downtown arena.

Project Contact: Kathy Morgan, Preservation Planner, City of Wichita, 316-268-4421 or [email protected]

Historic Survey of Downtown Garden City (2011)Spencer Preservation was hired by the City of Garden City to conduct a survey of historic resources in their downtown area as the first step in identifying a potential historic district in the downtown business district. Spencer completed the survey of approximately 100 properties in May 2011. Spencer has completed similar projects (district nominations and/or surveys) for the downtown business districts in Junction City, Manhattan, Ellsworth, Hiawatha, and Wilson, Kansas in the past ten years.

Project Contact: The local personnel have changed since this project was completed so we recomend you contact Amanda Loughlin, Kansas State Historical Society National Register Coordinator, (former) Survey Coordinator; 785-272-8682, ext. 216 or [email protected]

Survey Coordinator Amanda Loughlin can serve as a reference for the Garden City Survey (2011), Ellsworth (2006), as well as the KSHS-funded statewide barns survey. Loughlin reviewed all of these projects for KSHS.

Many of the above projects were funded in part with federal funding through the Department of the Interior's Historic Preservation Fund

and administered through the Kansas State Historical Society. All of the projects were completed on time and within the original budget. Sample survey forms are provided at the end of the proposal exhibiting the range of required experience and skills that our team will bring to your project.

III. UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT

Project Approach and Methodology The goal of the project is to guide future nomination of historic resources related to the Downtown Commercial District by surveying and analyzing buildings within the boundaries of the current district, as well as adjacent properties. The survey product will be an online inventory form for each individual resource uploaded into the KHRI Database. Assessment of survey data will result in recommendations regarding eligibility for listing on the National Register and future nomination(s) of individual resources and/or district(s).

The process for determining the historic significance of a property requires knowledge of the history of the property and the historic integrity of the property – the degree to which a property conveys its original design and character. Spencer has extensive experience that has resulted in a good working knowledge of state and federal programs and procedures requiring determinations of eligibility. Spencer Preservation will complete this process through research on the property and other relevant contexts, analysis of architectural, planning or design characteristics, former alterations, and existing conditions. A survey form will be completed for each existing resource in the survey area using the State Historic Preservation Office’s online KHRI survey database. The database allows active data entry or batch uploads and includes a site plan or aerial photograph, available historic photographs, and photos of current conditions. Each survey form documents basic property data, provides short narratives including architectural description and history of the building, and culminates in a preliminary determination of eligibility for listing on the national or state registers of historic places.

The Arkansas City Re-Survey Project will involve five primary phases: 1) Kickoff: Familiarization and Analysis of Existing Information 2) Field Survey 3) Integrating Field and Research Data 4) Analysis and Survey Report, and 5) Completion, Review and Submittal.

Brenda Spencer will coordinate with City staff throughout the survey project and provide monthly status reports. It is expected that City will provide the team with the necessary maps and access to any available city records from the former Downtown Commercial District Survey. City staff will be given the opportunity to review the final survey documents and provide comments prior to submittal to SHPO.

1. Project Kickoff: Familiarization and Analysis of Existing Resources The project will commence within 30 days of notification to proceed. A kickoff meeting will be held with City representatives and KSHS staff. Spencer Preservation will utilize this initial kickoff period to familiarize ourselves with the 1983 survey and to review existing resources at City offices and other relevant sources in order to conduct preliminary research to help inform the field survey. Preliminary research will include 1983 Survey, maps, county property data, former research and local books, publications and photographs. This phase will also include the drafting of the letter to business owners and the first meeting to inform the public of the project. It is expected that City staff will provide consultant with the necessary maps and coordinate public meetings.

2. Field Survey Field work will begin within 30 days of project kickoff. Field work will include physical examination of each resource within and adjacent to the survey area to determine current function, condition, materials, style and alterations. A second step during this phase will be one-on-one discussions with property owners, who are often vital sources of information for a building’s history. Spencer Preservation will complete the descriptive portions of the KHRI forms, take digital photographs of each property in the survey area illustrating primary views, and preparing a site plan for each resource in the survey area. Spencer will coordinate with City staff throughout the field survey and provide monthly status reports. No major commitments are expected from City staff during this phase of the project.

The survey will be completed in accordance with the National Register Bulletin 24: Guidelines for Local Survey: A Basis for Preservation Planning, and the Kansas SHPO’s HPF Products/Survey Manual. A survey form will be created in the KHRI database for each existing primary resource and photographs and site plans will be uploaded into the online database. Spencer will maintain communication with KSHS and city staff throughout to ensure that all goals are being met regarding data collection and KHRI online inventory forms.

3. Integrating Field and Archival Data In this phase, the data collection, archival research and field survey data will converge. Brenda and Michelle will work together to collect basic property data on all resources in the survey area and to conduct research on properties in the expanded survey area and to update history on the previously surveyed properties. Archival Research will be collected from city records, Cowley County Historical Society and Museum collections, and

Historic Function Remarks: First National Bank occupied the corner storefront on the 1887 Sanborn Map.By 1892, the corner was occupied by a drug store and millinery but the bankwas back in this location by 1899 and remained there until the early 1930s.By 1899, the U.S. Sugar Land Office was located on the 2nd floor. Thebuilding was remodeled with three Main Street storefronts in the late 1930safter closure of First National Bank. Retail tenants included: Haag Jewelry,later Patterson Jewelry (at 311) and Regan's Jewelry in 1940s-50s (at 317).The original Buffalo Block was built by C.J. (Buffalo) Jones in 1885, prior tothe construction of his hotel, adjacent on Grant Street. Jones attempted toestablish Grant as Garden City's "main" street and oriented his buildingsaccordingly. The First National Bank, established in Garden City in 1886,occupied the prominent corner location for most of its history. The bank wasstill in place on the 1929 Sanborn Map and 1931 City Directory but failedshortly thereafter. In 1922 Frank Dunn, Raimon Walters, & S. Schulmanpurchased the majority of Buffalo Block including this corner building. FrankDunn became owners of the corner building and remodeled for the bank.Shortly after the bank failure, John Walters (who had purchased the adjacentBrick Annex) bought the corner bank in 1935. Walters completely remodeledthe corner building, apparently removing the mansard roof and tower at thattime. The second floor of the building was occupied by the U.S. Sugar LandOffice around the turn of the century. In 1960, it was still referred to as the"Walters Building" in the City Directory with multiple offices on the 2nd floor.The east facade of the building was reconstructed with three retail storefrontsfronting Main Street. Although the original upper windows were retained,

PROPOSAL STATEMENT Historic architectural resources give a community its special character and historic preservation may be used as a comprehensive economic development strategy to reinforce that special character. Survey is the process of identifying and evaluating a community's historic architectural resources. The Arkansas City Downtown Historic Resources Intensive Survey is a valuable opportunity to document historic resources and plan for preservation in a significant Kansas town. Ever since the establishment of the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, the designation of historic districts has been one of the most important strategies for comprehensive planning and economic revitalization in America's cities and towns.1 While community and state recognition is the first benefit, nomination provides specific economic benefits. Contributing properties in a state or National Register historic district are eligible for federal and state rehabilitation tax credits as well as other economic incentives. In preparing our project report for the Arkansas City Downtown Survey, we will consult with the National Register Coordinator, State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and make recommendations for future preservation planning. Historic preservation is essentially a local activity. Even after this survey is completed, local citizens and property owners will preserve the historic resources of Arkansas City. We expect to work closely with local community leaders and property owners so that the survey can be a learning opportunity for those who will explain the architectural styles, building types, and historical significance of Downtown Arkansas City to visitors, other residents, economic and political leaders. The project team leader, Dale Nimz, has the qualifications and experience to carry out a successful Arkansas City Downtown Survey as described in the Request for Proposals. Nimz has successfully completed several survey and National Register projects in Kansas communities similar to Arkansas City (see statement of qualifications and resumes). The consultant fully meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualifications Standards. Because of his experience in working with community residents and volunteers, his team is the best choice to carry out the survey and explain the value of historic preservation to business owners, property owners, and residents affected by this project. As an architectural historian, Dr. Nimz can relate significant themes and trends in United States and Kansas history to the development of downtown Arkansas City and Cowley County. We will be able to use the available information to write a more interesting and detailed historical context for downtown Arkansas City. For example, Nimz has already identified the Sanborn insurance maps that are available for Arkansas City (1884-1955). The consultant will address the objectives outlined in the City of Arkansas City Request for Proposals. This project includes two levels of survey—reconnaissance survey of the 1983 historic district and an intensive survey of potentially significant properties adjacent to but outside the original district boundaries. The consultant team will survey and document approximately one hundred (100) buildings in the survey area and submit the survey inventory forms into the online Kansas Historic Resources Inventory (KHRI). The Arkansas City Downtown Survey report will

Community Leader's Guide 2nd edition (Washington, DC: Preservation Press, 2005).

include a methodology discussion, historical context summary, architectural analysis, list of surveyed properties, map of the survey area, and recommendations for future preservation efforts. After completing the field survey and property research, the consultant will meet with the National Register Coordinator, State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), to determine recommendations in the survey report. In addition to extensive professional experience in survey and nomination, Nimz is well prepared to discuss the economic benefits of historic preservation and heritage development. Since 1999, he has taught, "Historic Preservation Economics," for the Urban Planning Department, University of Kansas. This course presents the most up-to-date information and guest speakers on the use of historic preservation as an economic development strategy, particularly in historic downtowns. Recently, Nimz worked for two years as the Executive Director of the Kansas Preservation Alliance. He also served two terms on the Lawrence Historic Resources Commission (HRC) including one year as commission chair. Currently, Nimz serves on the board of directors of the Lawrence Preservation Alliance. Other members of the project team include Brad Finch and Mike Houts. Finch has photographed and processed photos for thousands of buildings in conjunction with historic resource surveys and is experienced in complying with the National Register digital photography specifications. Houts is a cartographer and GIS technician. He prepared survey area and National Register district maps for Alma, Fort Scott, and Seneca, Kansas as well as maps for the Freedom's Frontier National Heritage Area feasibility study. As preservation professionals, our goal is to build a working relationship that interprets each community's history and supports historic preservation and economic development efforts over many years. Nimz will be personally responsible for the building survey, historical research, preparation of inventory forms, and writing the Arkansas City Downtown Survey report. WORK PLAN The Arkansas City Downtown Historic Resources Intensive Survey will fully comply with the Secretary of the Interior's "Standards for Identification and Evaluation" and the HPF Grant-Funded Survey Requirements for FY 2017. The consultant will follow the best practices summarized in "Guidelines for Local Surveys: A Basis for Preservation Planning," National Register Bulletin 24, National Park Service. The purpose of this survey is to verify the status of each individual resource located with the listed historic district and to identify additional properties that may be eligible for National or Kansas Register listing. If selected for this project, the consultant will: -- consult with Josh While, Principal Planner, City of Arkansas City, and the National Register

Coordinator, (SHPO) prior to beginning field work to plan the survey; -- produce a letter approved by the City to property owners three weeks prior to the initial

public presentation and the beginning of survey work; -- provide monthly updates to the principal planner, City of Arkansas City;

5

-- lead one introductory public information meeting to discuss the survey with local residents and property owners and lead one final public meeting to discuss the survey findings;

-- make two presentations to the Arkansas City Historic Preservation Board (one at the

midpoint of the project and one presentation at the conclusion of the project; -- prepare online state survey inventory forms for all buildings in the survey area and submit

to the staff of the SHPO for approval; -- prepare digital photographic documentation of all buildings in the survey with a detailed log

of photographs (digital color images on CD-Rom); -- record locations for each property on a survey area map or maps; -- prepare a draft survey report with a methodology discussion, historical context summary,

architectural analysis, list of surveyed properties, map of the survey area, and recommendations for future preservation efforts with supporting documentation;

-- meet with the SHPO after review of the draft survey report, edit as requested, and prepare

a final illustrated survey report. -- All survey forms will be submitted online at www.kshs.org/khri. Information on the survey

inventory forms will meet the HPF Survey Requirements. Other final products will be delivered in hard copy and electronic copy in computer format compatible with Microsoft Word.

If selected, the consultant team will begin work on the Arkansas City Downtown Historic Resources Intensive Survey no later than November 30, 2017. Draft inventories and maps will be submitted to the acting grant administrator and State Historic Preservation Office by February 28, 2018. The draft survey report will be submitted by March 30, 2018 with the final survey report, concluding public meeting and presentation carried out, and all remaining closeout materials submitted by June 15, 2018. BID TOTAL FOR WORK PERFORMED The consultant team will complete the Arkansas City Downtown Historic Resources Intensive Survey and other tasks as outlined in the Request for Proposals for a fee for services not to exceed $13,225. This represents the cost of professional services based on a scope of work that includes approximately one hundred (100) downtown properties. This fee for services estimate includes all overhead expenses such as accounting services, photography, mileage, delivery of documents, telephone and internet, insurance, and miscellaneous supplies. ________________________________________________________________________ TOTAL $13,225

CONSULTANT QUALIFICATIONS In the past five years, the consultant has completed several projects similar in scope to the proposed Arkansas City Downtown survey project. Projects completed in the past fifteen years include surveys of downtowns in Burlingame, Belleville, Alma, and Seneca, Kansas as well as National Register nominations for downtowns in Fort Scott, Alma, and Seneca. Projects by Dale Nimz In 2017 Dale led the Lecompton Township Intensive Survey for the Douglas County Heritage Conservation Council with Susan Ford as a colleague. 77 intensive inventories were completed for this survey. In 2016 Susan Ford led the Lecompton Township Reconnaissance Survey with Dale Nimz as a colleague. In 2016 Dale Nimz prepared eight local landmark applications for historic residences (PSIQ level) for the Lawrence Preservation Alliance. Since 2012 Nimz has led the reconnaissance surveys of Eudora, Kanwaka, Wakarusa, Grant, and Palmyra Townships. In 2014, Nimz and Ford also prepared intensive inventories for 19 National Register eligible properties with more than 30 buildings and structures in Wakarusa Township. The consultant has prepared and entered hundreds of survey inventory forms in the online Kansas Historic Resource Inventory (KHRI) as well as prepared numerous National and Kansas Register nominations. Nimz researched and wrote the “Historic Overview” of Douglas County development for the Historic Preservation Plan Element, Horizon 2020 Comprehensive Plan for Lawrence/Douglas County, Kansas, in 2002. In addition to extensive historic preservation experience Nimz has taught, "Historic Preservation Planning," for the Urban Planning Department, University of Kansas, since 2006. Projects Historic Resources Intensive Survey of Lecompton Township, Douglas County, Kansas (2017) Nimz led an introductory public meeting in April, 2017. The consultants surveyed and inventoried 77 buildings and structures. Dale Nimz prepared the summary project report in July, 2017. Historic Resources Reconnaissance Survey of Lecompton Township, Douglas County, Kansas (2016) In 2016 Ford and Nimz led an introductory public meeting in Lecompton, Kansas. The consultants surveyed and inventoried 246 buildings and structures. Susan Ford prepared the survey project report. Historic Resources Reconnaissance Survey of Grant Township and Re-survey of Palmyra Township, Douglas County, Kansas (2014-2015) In 2014-15, Nimz and Ford surveyed 188 buildings and structures in Grant Township and re-surveyed Palmyra Township. Of the 205 buildings and structures identified in 1989, only 143 remain in Palmyra Township. In both townships, 59 buildings and structures were evaluated as National and Kansas Register eligible. Nimz prepared the survey report. Historic Resources Survey of Wakarusa Township, Douglas County, Kansas (2014)

In 2014 Nimz and Ford organized and led introductory and final public meetings in Wakarusa Township. The consultants surveyed 162 buildings and structures at a reconnaissance level and entered intensive inventories for an additional 19 properties that were potentially eligible for the Kansas and National Registers. Nimz prepared the survey project report analyzing the inventoried buildings and summarizing available information about the historic context of the township. “Lawrence Modern, 1945-1979,” (2013) Associated Historic Context for National Register Multiple Property Document—Historic Resources of Lawrence, Douglas County, Kansas In 2013 Dale Nimz researched, photographed examples, and wrote the historic context for mid-century Modern style commercial, institutional, and residential property types in Lawrence, Kansas. This addition to the overall NRMPDF was prepared for the Lawrence/Douglas County Planning Office. Natural, Cultural, Historic Resources Survey of Kanwaka and Wakarusa Townships, Douglas County, Kansas (2013 In 2013, Nimz and Ford organized and led introductory and final public meetings in Kanwaka and Wakarusa Townships. In Kanwaka Township, the consultants surveyed 53 individual properties and inventoried 170 buildings and structures. In Wakarusa Township, the consultants surveyed 71 properties and recorded 219 buildings and structures. Nimz prepared the survey project report. Natural, Cultural, Historic Resources Survey of Eudora and Kanwaka Townships, Douglas County, Kansas (2012) In 2012, Nimz and Ford organized and led introductory and final public meetings in Eudora and Kanwaka Townships. The consultants surveyed 144 individual properties and inventoried 365 buildings and structures in Eudora Township. They surveyed 24 properties in Kanwaka Township including the unincorporated village of Stull and inventoried 49 buildings and structures. Nimz prepared a survey project report. Kansas Vernacular Architecture Survey and National Register MPDF (2011) In 2011, Nimz and Ford conducted the “Kansas Vernacular Architecture” survey to document all extant pre-statehood buildings constructed through 1861. This project “Kansas Vernacular Architecture, 1820-1865,” was initiated by the Kansas Historic Preservation Office to commemorate the Kansas state Sesquicentennial. The survey of approximately two hundred buildings and additional research provided information for the preparation of a National Register Multiple Property Document with a historical statement of contexts and an outline of property types for the earliest buildings constructed in Kansas.

In April, 2011, Nimz and Susan Ford began the “Kansas Vernacular Architecture Survey and Historic Context” project. As part of the Kansas State Historical Society’s effort to celebrate the state sesquicentennial, the survey goal is to document all extant pre-statehood buildings constructed through 1861—the year of Kansas statehood. The survey provided some of the information needed to prepare a historic context statement, “Kansas Vernacular Architecture, 1820-1900” and a National Register Multiple Property Document Form for Kansas vernacular properties. Although the initial goal was to survey at least 100 properties, it appears that more than 175 will be documented. The project will be completed by September 15, 2011.

Rosin Preservation Proposal

Page 1

City of Arkansas City, Kansas


Rosin Preservation, LLC is well qualified to complete the Historic Resources Survey of Downtown Ar-

kansas City, Kansas. Our skilled staff has the experience and capacity to perform the work accurately and

promptly. Our understanding of the historic resources survey and rehabilitation processes, as well as the

National Register Criteria for Evaluation and the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation, will enable

us to meet the goals and requirements of the work. The character and reputation of our firm is evidenced in

the quality of our work and in our positive, longstanding relationships with previous clients and with the

Kansas Historical Society (KSHS).

Rosin Preservation brings to each project over 60 years of combined professional experience working with a

spectrum of historic resources and preservation issues. All members of the Rosin Preservation team exceed

the National Park Service standards for historic preservation professionals (36 CFR 61). The firm is a regis-

tered historic preservation consultant with the State Historic Preservation Offices (SHPOs) in Arkansas,

Colorado, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, and Virginia.

The City of Kansas City, Missouri and the State of Missouri have certified Rosin Preservation as a Woman-

Owned Business Enterprise (WBE).

Rosin Preservation has worked extensively with municipalities, the general public, and private entities to pre-

serve historic commercial and residential resources through survey, preservation planning, nominations to

the National Register of Historic Places, and applications to state and federal historic rehabilitation tax credit

programs. Over the past decade, we have prepared eligibility assessments for over 6,500 resources and over

one hundred National Register nominations for both historic districts and individual properties that success-

fully complied with the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, adding over 1,200 resources to the National

Register. Rosin Preservation has also secured National Park Service approval for more than $1 billion of

rehabilitation projects by working closely with owners, architects, and contractors to ensure that projects

meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation, while still addressing the needs of the redevel-

opment program.

Recent survey and National Register work in Topeka and Kansas City, Kansas; Moberly and Blue Springs,

Missouri; Neligh and Schuyler, Nebraska; and Rapid City, South Dakota have comprehensively evaluated the

physical characteristics and integrity the respective survey areas, including many late nineteenth and early

twentieth century commercial resources. For these projects we prepared tailored databases; analyzed data to

draw out key features and historical trends; engaged stakeholders and the general public to understand goals

and concerns specific to the area; and finally, prepared the necessary documents, including survey forms,

reports, design guidelines, and National Register nominations. These nominations have brought access to

financial incentives that support each community’s on-going revitalization efforts.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

The City of Arkansas City understands that identifying and preserving historic resources within its commu-

nity helps to create a unique sense of place and to maintain and revitalize its economic base. A historic re-

sources survey that identifies distinctive qualities and features is the essential first step in this process. A

community can build on these qualities to help target incentives and development strategies toward the

preservation of significant resources, leading to real, tangible benefits from preservation.

All identification, evaluation, associated methodology, and final products will follow the guidelines and re-

quirements presented in the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Identification and Eval-

uation; National Register Bulletin 24: Guidelines for Local Surveys: A Basis for Preservation Planning; National Register

Bulletin 15: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation; and any additional procedures requested by

the City of Arkansas City or by KSHS. To identify building types and styles, Rosin Preservation will primari-

ly utilize Main Street to Miracle Mile by Chester Liebs and The Buildings of Main Street by Richard Longstreth.

Rosin Preservation understands the scope of work and associated work products outlined in the RFP re-

garding re-survey of the resources in the Arkansas City Commercial Center Historic District. Over the

course of thirty-four years, the status of historic resources can change. While the status of some resources

may reflect the addition of non-historic material, other resources have since reached fifty years of age and

their relationship to the significance of the historic district should be reevaluated. Using information provid-

ed in the existing National Register nomination from 1983 and information gathered in the field as part of

this project, Rosin Preservation will evaluate both the contributing/non-contributing status and the current

integrity of each resource. The survey will serve as the basis for recommendations for updating the District,

whether through boundary adjustments or changes to contributing/non-contributing statuses.

Any successful survey requires a well-planned and efficient approach. The Rosin Preservation team has the

skills, experience, and expertise to satisfactorily complete the scope of services according to the proposed

timeline. We propose to perform the specific work tasks in the following manner.

Step 1 – Project Kick-Off.

Rosin Preservation will initiate the project with a kick-off meeting with the City via conference call to max-

imize efficiency and project resources. This meeting will provide an opportunity for Rosin Preservation to

learn about the City’s particular areas of concern and goals for the project. Rosin Preservation will allot time

for regular meetings with the City over the course of the project. These will also be via conference call.

Step 2 – Public Meeting.

Concurrent with the start of field work, Rosin Preservation will meet with interested members of the public

to outline the survey process and answer questions about the project. Property owners will be invited to

share pertinent historical information and photographs.


Page 7



Step 3 – Field Survey and Photography.

Field survey and documentation will be a concentrated effort. Field investigation of approximately 200 re-

sources will include visual inspection of all buildings and structures; recordation of data relating to physical

characteristics of the resources and their settings; digital photography of all buildings; and preliminary integ-

rity assessments. Digital photos will document all elevations of each resource.

Step 4 – Archival Research.

Research will have two foci – developing a historic context for the survey area and identifying dates of con-

struction and original occupants for the individual buildings being surveyed. Research will utilize resources

available through the City of Arkansas City and the Arkansas City Public Library, as well as appropriate on-

line resources, such as Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps. If research does not document a firm date of construc-

tion for some individual buildings, we will estimate the construction date based on building style and similar-

ity to other buildings in Arkansas City.

Step 5 – Data Entry and Analysis.

In the office, each record will be carefully reviewed to ensure accuracy and consistency. Information from

the field survey will be entered into the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet provided by KSHS for batch uploading

to KHRI. All fields will be completed to meet the requirements of KSHS described in the KHRI instruc-

tions. Data gathered in the field will be analyzed to determine important characteristics and trends of devel-

opment in the District. These may include, but are not limited to, date of construction, architectural style,

historic building function, and integrity.

Step 6 – Survey Report.

Rosin Preservation will prepare a survey report that summarizes the findings of the survey. The report will

include the project methodology; a historic context that describes the developmental evolution and historical

significance of the survey area and places it in context with the general development of Arkansas City; a

summary of survey results that presents the findings according to building style and date; and recommenda-

tions for future preservation, including the possibility of expanding the existing historic district and changing

the contributing/non-contributing status of specific resources. Maps and photographs will illustrate the re-

port. A list of all surveyed properties will also be included. All maps will be black and white and sized for

easy reproduction.

Step 7 – Public Meeting.

Following submittal of the draft survey report and the survey forms, Rosin Preservation will conduct a sec-

ond public meeting to present our findings and recommendations to the community. The meeting will in-

clude a discussion of the National Register of Historic Places and the benefits and responsibilities associated

with register-listing.

Step 8 – Final Deliverables.

Rosin Preservation will revise the draft survey report and survey forms to incorporate comments from

KSHS, the City, and the general public. Digital and hard copies of the report, forms, and photographs will

be submitted to KSHS and the City, in accordance with KSHS survey requirements.

COMPATIBILITY with the COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The Future Land Use portion of the Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as industrial. The proposed use appears to be in line with the adopted Comprehensive Plan for this area. This will also help the goal of Retaining Existing Businesses and Support Their Expansion and the corresponding Action to “Enhance business expansion opportunities through land use plans...”

PROPERTY HISTORY

This property has been under the ownership of Arkansas City Industries for a

number of years. This organization exists to promote economic development in

and around Arkansas City. This area has been designated as Goff Industrial

Park. The property has been used for agriculture for many years. This property

was split from a much larger property. A plat for the Industrial Park should be

forthcoming.

COMPATIBILITY with the ZONING ORDINANCE

It is the intent of the industrial districts to provide for areas of light and heavy industrial uses and for other compatible uses. Light Industrial (I-1) uses generate few effects felt off-site, such as smoke, noise or odor. Heavy Industrial (I-2) uses tend to be basic or primary industries which do often produce vibration, smoke, noise, odor, glare, dust and other effects that travel off-site. The proposed use would be compatible with one of those districts.

Findings When a proposed amendment would result in a change of the zoning classification of any specific property, the recommendation of the Planning Commission, accompanied by a copy of the record of the hearing, shall contain statements as to the present classification, the classification under the proposed amendment, the reasons for seeking such reclassification, a summary of the facts presented, and a statement of the factors upon which the recommendation of the Planning Commission is based, using the following guidelines. Note that all references to agriculture in this report also include associated residential uses. 1. Whether the change in classification would be consistent with the intent and purpose of these

regulations; The surrounding area is comprised of agricultural and industrial uses. There are single and multiple family homes to the south across Skyline Road as well. It is the intent of the industrial districts to provide for areas of light and heavy industrial uses and for other compatible uses. Light Industrial (I-1) uses generate few effects felt off-site, such as smoke, noise or odor. Heavy Industrial uses tend to be basic or primary industries which do often produce vibration, smoke, noise, odor, glare, dust and other effects that travel off-site. The change in classification would be consistent with the intent and purpose of these regulations. 2. The character and condition of the surrounding neighborhood and its effect on the proposed change; The surrounding area is comprised of agricultural and industrial uses. There are single and multiple family homes to the south across Skyline Road as well. The area has been designated as an industrial park. The neighborhood is largely industrial already and this development should not change that character. 3. Whether the proposed amendment is made necessary because of changed or changing conditions in the area affected, and, if so, the nature of such changed or changing conditions; This area is an industrial park. When an area in newly annexed, the default zoning is R-1, Low Density Residential. That zoning would be inappropriate for an industrial park which makes the proposed amendment necessary. 4. The current zoning and uses of nearby properties, and the effect on existing nearby land uses upon such a change in classification; To the north is a I-2, Heavy Industrial District which matches the use. To the south is a R-1 & R-3, Low and High Density Residential District, which does not match the use but is not immediately adjacent to the site as it is across Skyline Road. To the east, is I-2,Heavy Industrial District, which also matches the use. To the west is an I-2, Heavy Industrial District which matches the use. The surrounding area is comprised of agricultural and industrial uses. There are single and multiple family homes to the south across Skyline Road as well. The proposed use is industrial and is within a previously designated industrial park and the recent road upgrades can handle more industrial development in the area. The increase in traffic should not adversely affect the residential properties along the south side of Skyline Road. 5. Whether every use that would be permitted on the property as reclassified would be compatible with the uses permitted on other property in the immediate vicinity; The proposed use of a warehouse would be permitted under the I-2, Heavy Industrial District. The

use would be generally compatible with the uses in the immediate vicinity with proper mitigation of any adverse effects to the adjacent residential property on Skyline Road. Care will be taken in the site plan review process to ensure that the residential properties are not negatively affected. 6. The suitability of the applicants property for the uses to which it has been restricted; The property is currently zoned for residential use (default zoning when annexed); the property is currently used for agriculture which is allowed within this district. The area is within an industrial park and appears to be best suited for either continued agricultural use or industrial use (best use) at this time. 7. The length of time the subject property has remained vacant or undeveloped as zoned; The property has been vacant for many years. It appears it has only ever been used as agricultural land. Without the proposed amendment the land will likely not be used for its best purpose. 8. Whether adequate sewer and water facilities, and all other needed public services exist or can be provided to serve the uses that would be permitted on the property if it were reclassified; Water and Sanitary sewer are available in the area and can be extended to the site at the developers cost. Other utilities should be readily available for extension to the development. The streets in the industrial park have recently been upgraded and should be able to properly serve the proposed use. Police and Fire/EMS should be able to easily access the area as well. 9. The general amount of vacant land that currently has the same zoning classification proposed for the subject property, particularly in the vicinity of the subject property, and any special circumstances that make a substantial part of such vacant land available or not available for development; There is little if any land outside of the industrial park that is suitable for the proposed use. 10. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conformance to and further enhance the implementation of the City's Comprehensive Plan; The Future Land Use portion of the Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as industrial. The proposed use appears to be in line with the adopted Comprehensive Plan for this area. This will also help the goal of Retaining Existing Businesses and Support Their Expansion and the corresponding Action to “Enhance business expansion opportunities through land use plans...” 11. Whether the relative gain to the public health, safety, and general welfare outweighs the hardship imposed upon the applicant by not upgrading the value of the property by such reclassification; and, The public health, safety and general welfare should not be negatively impacted by this rezoning as this area has already been designated as an industrial park.

12. Such other factors as the Planning Commission may deem relevant from the facts and evidence presented in the application

13. The recommendations of professional staff; It is the recommendation of staff that the requested rezoning R-1 to I-2 be approved based on the

following conclusions:

The property is within an industrial park

The development appears compatible with the area.

The property has remained underutilized for many years, agricultural use only.

The site is adjacent or in the vicinity of industrial development.

The project should not adversely affect the neighboring properties with proper mitigation.

This project has the potential to increase jobs and matches goals of the Comprehensive Plan and the Future Land Use map.

The public health, safety and general welfare should not be negatively impacted by this rezoning.
