REQUESTS FROM THE AUDIENCE Q
There was no one in the audience.
FINAL REVIEW OF 2019 CALENDAR
The Commissioners reviewed the final draft of the 2019 Calendar and identified final edits and additional historic dates.
They discussed that the calendar was getting quite cluttered with a significant number of Edmonds -related events and talked
about various options to address the problem. Commissioners were encouraged to submit their final edits and additions so
the calendar could be submitted to Mr. Chave for final review and printing.

NEW BUSINESS
Properties for Inclusion on the Edmonds Register of Historic Places
Ms. Cunningham reported that Commissioner Waite spoke with the owners of the Mowatt/Wells home (120 Edmonds
Street), who indicated they are interested in listing their property on the Register. She sent them the information they
requested, but they would also like some written confirmation that the property can be removed from the Register at any time
upon their request.
Chair Raetzloff reported that he spoke with the property owner at 560 Bell Street who is also interested in listing her property
on the Register. She shared some history about the property, including her concern that the original house had wood siding
and it is now clad with brick. She is ready to move forward with her application once the Commission has determined that
the home would be eligible for the Register. However, there are no pictures of the home prior to 2002. Commissioner Scott
agreed to search for pictures from the Edmonds Museum's archives.
Commissioner Preston asked if the windmill at the end of Cary Road would be eligible for the Register. Commissioner
Waite answered that it could be, but he doesn't know when it was constructed. Commissioner Preston said his understanding
is that it was constructed prior to World War II and used as a smelter at one point. If needed, it was to be used as a signal for
ships during World War II. He advised that he and Commissioner Vogel would visit the structure and talk with the current
property owner.
Discussion of Officers for 2019
The Commissioners had a discussion about potential candidates for 2019 officers and agreed to hold elections at their next
meeting.
August 2019 Display at the Edmonds Library
Commissioner Scott advised that the Commission has been invited to display an exhibit in the lobby of the Edmonds Library
during the month of August 2019. She and Commissioner Johnson shared some of their ideas for what might be included in
the display, including a map that illustrates the location of the historic properties in Edmonds. Commissioners shared
additional ideas.
COMMISSIONER SCOTT MOVED THAT COMMISSIONER JOHNSON BE APPOINTED HEAD OF THE
AUGUST 2019 EDMONDS LIBRARY DISPLAY COMMITTEE. COMMISSIONER WAITE SECONDED THE
MOTION, WHICH CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
There was no unfinished business.
HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION CHAIR COMMENTS
Chair Raetzloff thanked Commissioner Scott for her work to create the 2019 Historic Calendar. He also thanked
Commissioner Johnson for accepting the assignment to head up the August 2019 Edmonds Library Display Committee.
HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSIONER COMMENTS
All of the Commissioners voiced thanks to Commissioner Scott for her great work on the calendar.
Chair Raetzloff reminded the Commissioners of the assignments that were given at the October meeting to contact owners of
potential properties for the Register.

Property appears to meet criteria for the National Register of Historic Places: No
Property is located in a potential historic district (National and/or local): Yes - Local
Property potentially contributes to a historic district (National and/or local): Yes
Statement of This simple house is somewhat unusual for the use of brick as a cladding material. Located on a relatively large corner lot, the assembly recalls the early 20th-century4�
Significance development of the city.
Description of The house and garage are both front -facing gable types with brick veneer cladding. The house is characterized by a projecting, hip roof bay on the primary north fagade and a
Physical symmetrically placed center door and attic casement window. A pair of double -hung wood windows is located on this fagade also. Both windows feature soldier coursing at their
Appearance heads. The large, engaged brick chimney, on the east side, appears to be non -original. The garage, which faces east on 6th Avenue North, is a tall, 1 1/2-story structure, which
may have functioned as a stable.
