c. Briefly describe the relationship of this project to past, present, or future preservation work.
This project is a continuation of efforts to produce a consistent inventory and
awareness of Seward's rich history since the formation of the city. Past efforts have
included a physical inventory of all known historical sites and buildings. By Increasing
public awareness of sites of historical interest, and by showing both a cultural and
economic benefit to creating a walking tour,there is a greater likelihood that
structures and sites will be preserved for generations to come.
Seward's HP Commission has also engaged in presentation of yearly Historic
Preservation awards and has been involved in historical projects such as the Hoben
Park restoration, cemetery site identification, mapping and the Iditarod trail
Centennial Monument. Examples of possible identification,could also include
significant sites related to Benny Benson,the Jesse Lee Home,St. Peter's Episcopal
Church,Seward Theater, and other sites of early importance to Seward.

importance of Seward to the formation and development of
Alaska.

means for not only historic preservation but also for creating
economic opportunity that will encourage a continued
dedication to preserving the Structures,Sites,Vessels and
artifacts that define Seward's heritage.
Visitors are looking for an "experience" a story.They wish to take
pictures, mail postcards, or obtain tangible items that reflect the
uniqueness of the location. This project will serve to grow the
reputation of Seward as a place of significant historic importance
to Alaska and to U.S. History.Visitors may better appreciate the
beauty and resources of the location if they gain a greater

RE: CITY OF SEWARD SUPPORT LETTER FOR CILG GRANT APPLICATION
To Whom It May Concern,
The City of Seward supports the Sewa:rd Historical Preservation, Commission's efforts to receive the
Certified Local Government (CLG)Grant. The initial effort is a great start towards inventorying and
marking scenic properties and directing visitors towards such historically significant landmarks within
the community and region. The informative signa:ge and walking brochure are valuable efforts towards
developing the historic significance of local assets and directing visitors as well as locals to them.

To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing this as President of the Resurrection Bay Historical Society,and with
support from the board of directors. We are in support of the CLG Grant (Certified
Local Government Grant) request from the Seward Historic Preservation
Commission.
The goals of the grant are (1) To identify 25 buildings and places of historic value to
Seward. (2) To research the history of those buildings and places. (3) To install
informative signs at the site of these buildings and properties as well as installing
street signs directing visitors to those buildings and places. (4) To develop a
brochure/walking tour to be distributed at various sites in Seward.
The RBHS supports these goals.
Thank you,
Sue Mc lure, President
