Board members agreed to attempt visiting both sites in one day and asked staff to post a special-meeting notice with times and addresses once the locations confirm availability.

Why it matters: a site visit lets board members see completed or in-progress preservation work firsthand, which can inform future grant recommendations and provide accountability for how Heritage Fund dollars are used.

Staff reported the two sites proposed several date options; board members selected June 17 as the most feasible day for the majority. The board discussed scheduling two visits that day — one in the early afternoon and a second later — so members traveling from outside Port Angeles could attend both. \"So maybe... 02:30 to 03:30 and then 4 to 5 or something just to give an hour a week each place,\" a board member suggested.

A motion to schedule a special meeting for June 17 to visit the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center and the North Olympic History Center was moved and seconded, and members voted in favor. Staff will confirm times with each institution and post a special-meeting notice with location details and times. The board noted that if a quorum is present the site visits must be posted as a public meeting.

Next steps: Staff will contact the two institutions to confirm times, draft a special-meeting notice and post it to meet public-notice requirements; the board plans to proceed with the in-person visits on June 17 if confirmed.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Heritage Advisory Board Meeting - May 05, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Heritage Advisory Board unanimously approved a special meeting and field trip on June 17 to visit the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center and the North Olympic History Center to view projects funded through the Heritage Assistance Program.","taxTitle","Clallam County, Washington","taxId",54309,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6245874,"Heritage board to notify 2024 HAP grantees: no follow-up questions",242,2233000,2475000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3221371-abff71e84c5d7dfc3bb4bff01a5a5ff9&start=2233&end=2475","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3221371-abff71e84c5d7dfc3bb4bff01a5a5ff9/thumbnail_2233000.jpg","/articles/6245874/Clallam-County/Washington/Heritage-board-to-notify-2024-HAP-grantees-no-follow-up-questions","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6245874-d739c54b112777e9e7e895f45601dede/orig.mp4?Expires=1776470382&Signature=TCePAgsI5yZRG38-ze~5rz5KYLjurCdINmcxUtUh~jPf94mDGT-o3UrflptHnr2kIlwzdJolIeL5OlIyfwPraD2OoPpDaSyr5weKcdFbtD5SCSUi9-i4A74gUFU9bTQ8vLL7bdxyBlCEIsQB11BZhJFfyeKH2~2srQw-nCK3e3bopf9d~34cBtw5iCBEetW4n7Iz1Gs6~UZzNo6~mjD7duEyV9V2qD10Wu1rUKGAkZafPBrob65eYpLxSl4jda~0tKvcsOAgEDVQ3BdFgEkipu~baZuGuigXWO5LZtAS4eBxtlG0g73WLLmyySRX75xqn4jdFXgb5SzWTGcCpmX71A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Clallam County Heritage Advisory Board voted to send notice to 2024 Heritage Assistance Program (HAP) grantees that their progress reports require no further follow-up. The board’s action instructs staff to email each grantee advising that the board has no outstanding questions about their submitted reports.

Why it matters: Grantees are contractually required to submit project reports; a clear response from the board closes the reporting loop and allows grantees to proceed with projects and final invoicing.

Board members reviewed progress reports for projects including painting restoration and storage upgrades at local institutions. Staff reported that required contract reports were due May 1 and that documentation and scanned materials have been provided by applicants. \"The contract indicates they need to provide a report by May 1,\" a staff member said.

After asking whether staff should follow up with applicants, board members agreed that staff would email grantees if there were outstanding questions. A motion to send a notice that there were no follow-up questions was moved and seconded; the board proceeded with that action and staff said they would send the emails that week.

The decision was administrative: it does not change grant awards or contract terms and simply confirms that submitted progress reports were satisfactory to the board and staff. Board members said they prefer to contact grantees only when follow-up is needed.

Next steps: Staff will email each 2024 grantee confirming receipt and that no additional questions remain unless issues are later discovered during administrative review.","The Heritage Advisory Board voted to notify 2024 Heritage Assistance Program grantees that their progress reports required by contract have no follow-up questions from the board and staff, and directed staff to send those notices.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6245878,"Clallam County prosecutor’s office briefs heritage board on grant rules, conflicts and eligibility",2025,187000,2212000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3221371-abff71e84c5d7dfc3bb4bff01a5a5ff9&start=187&end=2212","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3221371-abff71e84c5d7dfc3bb4bff01a5a5ff9/thumbnail_187000.jpg","/articles/6245878/Clallam-County/Washington/Clallam-County-prosecutors-office-briefs-heritage-board-on-grant-rules-conflicts-and-eligibility","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6245878-6f3331a923a22a2314e35fe4f32b36a2/orig.mp4?Expires=1776470382&Signature=eqQdz0QqJtKmTJXfH7tU5JmKsPIo3PSeZtYaVl5YulFj7mQV15PXQDe6U82mbrlFZ9LS7BvDxvVgWWMm44Rr1NmbnofBJPdQ6cjn4t7rf-wYWH7QqccDsyPn-H-D~NBu~juJWqdIwecSIe-uumpIjKGLZ4~NkJT4zQTguO6wHXfAuQDx5Hq4RoUvYczlmyGveNe7gNkOvbukSMuv43khiegGAvf86LbnfwruQnB26udDAFxjTWxUmzRzSg9x8LGd8mpDDF2xtVINuZuBPUEEysd13TiYHEnM-MPkHJCYRoTgrmqUDsMUy7AkCtELPQGI~uy0dhDMNN0F~JC4QJRwVw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Jay Reno, civil deputy for the Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office, advised the Clallam County Heritage Advisory Board on eligibility, bylaws and conflict-of-interest practices during a detailed question-and-answer session at a board meeting. Reno said the board’s current bylaws impose no limit on the number of grants a single organization may receive and described the process for amending those bylaws.

The board, which advises the Clallam County Board of Commissioners, asked Reno how to change the bylaws and whether any restrictions exist on repeat awards. Reno said changes start with a quorum and a majority vote of the Heritage Advisory Board, followed by legal review from the prosecutor’s office and final approval by the county commissioners. \"Meeting of the board where a quorum meets, a majority vote, recommendation of changes to the bylaws,\" he said.

Why it matters: the board uses the county Heritage Fund to recommend grants for preservation projects across Clallam County. Clarifying who may apply and how the board should manage conflicts helps prevent procedural challenges that could delay funding for local preservation projects.

Board members pressed Reno for specifics about eligibility and for guidance on requests they have received. Judy Rando Stipe, chair of the Heritage Advisory Board, described a long-running project to preserve a historic train engine and asked why previous applications had been turned down; she also sought help in making future applications more competitive. Reno said eligibility is determined first by the applicant type and property ownership: applicants must be a tax-exempt nonprofit organized in Washington, a local/state/federal government entity, a federally recognized tribe, or an individual/entity that owns Clallam County property listed on a local, state or national historic registry.

Reno reviewed types of eligible projects and said restoration of an existing, \"declared\" historic object or work is eligible, while creation of new artworks generally is not. \"I would put visual arts such as painting, sculpture, films... I would say they are ineligible projects,\" he said, adding that restoration of previously declared items would be allowable. He suggested the board could request further research on what counts as \"declared\" for the registry process.

On conflicts of interest, Reno told the board that, because meetings are public, it would be inappropriate to require a member to leave the room when their project is discussed. He recommended abstaining from voting on projects in which a member has a personal interest, saying abstention reduces the appearance of impropriety. \"It would be better if somebody else did it, of course. A non board member,\" he said when asked if board members should present applications for projects they are involved with.

Reno also discussed term limits and said the current bylaws contain no limit on how many times an individual may serve as chair. \"There is nothing currently in the bylaws,\" he said, while offering term limits as a personal recommendation, not a legal requirement.

The board asked whether the Heritage Advisory Board’s recommendation is final; Reno reiterated that the board only makes recommendations and that the county commissioners hold final authority on dispersing money. \"You're making a recommendation... at the end of the day, the county commissioners are the ones... they make the decision of where the money goes,\" he said.

Following the session, Reno offered to meet with members individually to review specific past applications and explain eligibility decisions. Judy Rando Stipe said she would provide documentation to help staff and legal counsel review the train restoration submissions.

Next steps: Board members said they want Reno to return with more detailed guidance on registry declaration criteria and asked staff to arrange follow-up appointments for specific applications.","The Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office told the Heritage Advisory Board there are no limits in the board’s bylaws on how many grants an organization may receive, outlined the amendment process for the bylaws and advised the board on conflict-of-interest practices and which projects qualify for funding.","actionData","errors"]
