Board to update HPARB handbook, add web links and provide digital copies
Summary
Members recommended edits to the HPARB handbook to add a website link for updated membership and PD schedules, asked staff to change the front-page date and circulate a digital copy, and discussed whether to use 'properties' or 'buildings' when reporting National Register counts.
A member presented edits to the HPARB handbook and urged linking the document to the county website so membership lists and schedules remain current. The board agreed that keeping a single online source would reduce confusion; one member proposed that Ashley make the recommended edits and distribute an updated digital copy to the board.
Members also debated wording and counts in the handbook. The packet was updated to show “20 buildings” on the National Register instead of 18, and members discussed whether to report ‘‘properties’’ (which can include districts and archaeological sites) or restrict the count to physical buildings. The chair asked that semantics be resolved later and that the board circulate corrected pages.
