Y
Marty Kern reported the planned mee'ng with Mr. Konover, owner of the
Miami Shores Theatre, did not tak place. There has been no positive
response. from Mr. Konover, and the feeling is that he is not interested.
in having -the property designated a Historic Landmark. Mrs. Rodriguez
noted the Theatre Committee can now proceed with other funding resources
which may be available.
6. ARTICLES IN VILLAGE HALL NEWS
Mrs. Rodriguez noted that she had made the suggestion of publishing
information on historically designated properties some time _ago. She now
would like to pursue this idea. With this in mind, she contacted Mickie
Connolly regarding publishing something in the Chamber of Commerce paper,
and was told the space could not be spared. In her conversation with
Sandy Moredock, she was advised that a space in the Village News could be
allowed about four times a year. The object is to make residents more
knowledgiable about historic preservation, and to make designation interest
and attractive. Mrs. Rodriguez will write the first article in January,
highlighting the Thematic Resource Nomination, 1988. Subsequent issues
could feature certain locally designated properties. -These would be
written by other individuals on the Board.. A one page insert might be
published for the May -issue, since May is National Preservation Month.
The expense for this insertcould be underwritten. Discussion took place;
on the order that properties would be highlighted, and means for under= -
writing cash for the proposed insert.
7. PLANNING FOR NEW DESIGNATIONS
A copy of the Miami Shores National Register Properties/Thematic Resource
Nomination, 1988, waspresented to each.. Member by the Chairman. She had
indicated after eachlisting if it was locally designated or no local
designation. Further, she announced that since there. is no Staff, and
Members must do the work, each Board Member will take the nameof a property
with no local designation, and make a. concerted effort to interest the
owner in local designation.- This work will beginafter the letter is
received from Mr. Percy, a press release is taken care of, and homeowners
have received the National Nomination plaque. It is hoped this could start
next month.
