Staff to bring Mills Act contract updates to commission in January

Associate planner Michael Donovan told the Cultural Heritage Commission that staff intends to bring an update on the status of existing Mills Act contracts at the Jan. 15 meeting. Donovan said staff will present the contracts in groups: those in partial compliance (within their 10‑year term and with remaining tasks), those that have completed required work items, and those considered noncompliant for exceeding the 10‑year term without completing work plans. Donovan said this item is largely an internal status update and that no new Mills Act contracts are being proposed at the January meeting.

Staff said it will return with the first group of contracts for the commission to receive and file and that it will evaluate internal procedures for how applications are scheduled and reviewed in the future.
