The City Council approved the request for proposals (RFP) and evaluation criteria to select an architectural historian for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) downtown façade project.
Why it matters: The architectural historian will provide formal historic-preservation documentation and guidance required for façade improvements funded by CDBG, which often requires compliance with historic-preservation standards.
During discussion a councilmember asked if Henry (a staff member) had already been performing that role informally; another councilmember noted this RFP is a more formal, written procurement. The RFP was approved without further discussion.
Discussion vs. action: The council took formal action to approve the RFP and evaluation criteria. The question about staff performing the historian role was a discussion point that was not resolved at the meeting.
Ending: City staff will proceed with posting the RFP and evaluating proposals under the approved criteria.
