Redevelopment commission approves $50,000 reimbursement for 209 South Main Street facade project
Summary
The Crown Point Redevelopment Commission approved a $50,000 reimbursement request for a two-facing facade project at 209 South Main Street after the petitioner said plans were revised with the Historic Preservation Commission and Indiana Landmarks to remove disallowed EIFS materials.
The Crown Point Redevelopment Commission voted to approve a $50,000 reimbursement for facade work at 209 South Main Street, covering two street-facing elevations at $25,000 each. Petitioner Eric Lindemolder described exterior work that includes new windows and doors, tuckpointing, signage, railings, steel work and fencing; total project cost was presented as $189,970.
Commissioners discussed materials and design. One commissioner noted the petitioner’s original request included EIFS, a material not permitted in the historic district, and said Lindemolder had worked with the Historic Preservation Commission and Indiana Landmarks to revise plans toward the building’s original brick appearance. Lindemolder said there had been “continuous dialogue” with the commission’s representative and Indiana Landmarks to meet standards.
A motion to approve the requested $50,000 reimbursement was made and seconded; a roll-call vote followed and the motion passed. The commission recorded no amendments and did not attach conditions beyond the stated historic-preservation review process.
The commission’s approval will allow the property owner to pursue the work with the stated funding support. Further administrative steps (payment processing, final inspections) were not detailed in the meeting record.
