QUARTERLY REPORT TO CARMEL CITY COUNCIL
OCTOBER 2023
July 2023 to September 2023
• CHPC staff finalized the development of the Caperton House Preservation Plan and presented it to the
Commission, in anticipation of their adoption. Staff detailed the property’s history, physical description,
and guidelines.
• Owners of properties included in the 2014 Carmel/Clay Township Historic Architecture Survey were
invited via letter to apply for the façade grant. The goal of the grant program is to restore and rehabilitate
the exteriors of historic properties within the city. During the application process, CHPC staff met with
potential applicants to discuss their restoration projects, provide technical assistance/general preservation
advice, and provide education about the Historic Preservation Commission.
CHPC staff reviewed the applications and scored them in terms of completeness, scope of work, and
adherence to the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. Staff
recommendations were then submitted to the commission for their review. On September 14th, the
commission approved funding for 3 of the 5 eligible applicants. Total approved funding was approximately
$21,133.09.
• Cleaning and mowing work continued on the Wilkinson House property, as well as discussions with
contractor Van Rooy Restoration on the scope of work of future rehabilitation.
• Commission approved payment of up to $2,800 for Jeff Goens’ historic marker application for Mattsville.
• CHPC Staff explored alternatives to RuskinArc, given that the site will cease operations on December 31.
• Throughout the previous quarter, CHPC staff continued to participate in the review of improved location
permit applications for historic properties, per the stipulations of the 60-day demolition delay ordinance.
