III. PUBLIC MEETING ITEM
NATIONAL REGISTER THEMATIC GROUP II NOMINATION
PROPOSAL SELECTION OF PROPERTIES. CONSULTATION WITH
STATE HISTORIC PRESERVATION OFFICER (SHPO) CHERI PILAND,
HISTORIC SITES SPECIALIST (DADE COUNTY); JENNIFER JOVE,
BARRY UNIVERSITY STUDENT.
Chairman von Bittner introduced Ms. Cheri Piland, representative from the State
Historic Preservation Office, Tallahassee, FL.
Ms. Piland stated she had received the submissions for the Thematic Group II
nominations quite some time ago. These had been reviewed and commented on.
Since she had not heard anything more from the Board, she had thought there was no
interest. Since she was in the area, she decided to contact the Board and find out
where the matter stood.
Chairman von Bittner reported he had received the comments and they had not
as yet been discussed by the Board. He explained to Ms. Piland the work on their
submissions had been done by Ms. Jennifer Jove, a B^rry University student.
Chairman von Bitiner advised the issue on the nominations, as he understood it, was
whether the Board should expand the proposal to include properties in future years
outside the scope of the New Miami Shores Company proposal.
Ms. Piland advised some technical changes would need to be made to individual
nominations which could be done as the project progressed. Essentially, she stated
the first nomination was a Thematic nomination. These were no longer done at the
National Register, but were now called multiple property surveys. This consisted of
identifying historical time frames and different property types. In order to avoid
repetitious work down the line, Ms. Piland suggested the Board include a later time
frame from what had been previously submitted which had been up to 1933. She
asked for a brief history submission from 1933 up to 1946. This way, should a
property be entered during the later period, the foundation would already be available.
Ms. Piland stated some expansion work would be needed on property types. The
context for submissions would include three time periods: early phase, second
development phase, and the post war phase. After determining which phase the
property fit into, the owners would be mentioned. What she was asking the Board to
provide would become the covering for future submissions.

Chairman von Bittner asked Ms. Piland if she had comments on the Board's one
or two first submissions and historical summary. She stated the historical summary had
been clear. Ms. Piland advised that a sketch was needed on the individual
properties, or an outline of the property in relation to its lot. Two sets of black and
white photographs, 4"x6" and 3"x5", of all sides of each property were required
including at least one picture of any secondary buildings (i.e. - detached garage).
Color slides would be needed for the presentation. A USGS map of each property
submission was also needed and Xeroxing was prohibited. Member Temkin stated she
could get these from the County.
Chairman von Bittner reported all the requirements could be met this year. He
asked Ms. Piland if they had to have owner consent. She stated they did. He thought
when they had the individual homeowner's consent, they could ask for a copy of the
survey from which to do the necessary sketch. Ms. Piland advised she would send the
Board the proper consent forms to use. She stated the nominations did not have to be
sent in a group, they could send each one as they came in.
Chairman von Bittner confirmed with Ms. Piland that finalizing the cover would
be the first thing to do. Optional additions to submissions would be to include a sketch
• map to show a swimming pool, secondary buildings, interesting interior features with a
floor plan. Member Temkin asked what the turnaround time was after Tallahassee
received a submission. Ms. Piland briefly went through the steps a property
submission would go through. This would take approximately six months. Member
Temkin asked if a Board member should attend the presentation. Ms. Piland advised
she could do the presentation alone, but anyone was invited to attend. The only time
someone from the Board would need to be present was if a certain property was
controversial, marginal or needed extensive explanation.
Member Franck asked what the criteria was for judging a property. Ms. Piland
replied the age of the home (at least 50 years old) was considered and its particular
significance, either historically or architecturally. The property must have maintained
architectural integrity. The changes made to the home must have been minimal and in
no way could have deterred from the original architectural integrity.
Chairman von Bittner asked if the group of homes the Board was going to submit
which were all constructed by the same developer would fit into a group listing. Ms.
Piland stated they would fit under the covering in historic context, but since the homes
were not contiguous, they would have to be judged separately and would not qualify as
a district. A district required boundaries of each property touching in some way.
• Chairman von Bittner prepared to show the Board and Ms. Piland color slides of
the homes up for consideration. It was determined a rating system should be devised
