'rIlE ("1'1',,""'" ~A~ :\IAH.C()~ PROJECT PROPOSAL CERTIFIED LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUBGRANTS (PART II) The City of San Marcos received a 1991 CLG SubGrant to establish a survey and inventory of historic properties within its three existing historic districts. Under that grant, a filing system is being established and research for individual historic properties is being conducted in accordance with the THC GUIDELINES FOR SURVEY AND PLANNING GRANTS. PROJECT #1 The City has conducted an interest survey of property owners within three areas beyond the existing historic district, which contain historically significant structures. THC indicates there are approximately 1,000 historic structures throughout the community whose historical preservation, recognition and nomination need to be surveyed and inventoried. This project would engage a professional consultant to conduct a survey of all pre-1945 structures, assign high or low priority rating, note address and approximate construction date. This data will then be used by staff to analyze and create a plan to increase and/or expand historic district(s) within the corporate limits of the city of San Marcos. In addition, this scope of this project will be to continue and enhance the acquisition of photography of each of the structures within the three existing historic districts, to include negatives of all surveyed sites with property identification of each view, contact sheets and photo index sheets. The purchase of a camera is included in the City's CLG CASH match as well as supplies, copies and transportation reimbursements. CLG IN-KIND match includes professional staff salaries and benefits. Additionally, the staff time and benefits have been included as IN-KIND match for secretarial and cartographer contributions to the completion of these files. City Hall. 630 East Hopkins.
