Updates
1. Several new property owners accepted since the last meeting and were ranked and added.
2. Commissioner Ward recommended removing one property. Commissioner Ward recommended
removing 309 Second Ave and keeping 202 Second Ave (same owners) to be fair and spread out signs
among owners. I listed 303 in the second wave of funding for now instead of removal.
3. 1 recommend putting Woodlawn Cemetery in round 2 and moving the Library up above the funding line
since it is the start of the tour some important to have funding for a sign in the first round.
Review �—
Sub-ranking of 6 below funding line.
Any other properties immediately below funding line important for round 1? If so, any city properties above the
line that could wait for round 2 to allow it to be funded now?
Time Line
Tanguy will present.
Research and Photo Needs
• As you are doing research, consider you may need 4-5 pictures at 300 dpi for your sign.
• You may be able to get photos you can take high quality pictures of or scan from the owners.
• If you see a photo in a research book, note the photo credit(number, collection, who has it etc, and the
book it came from and page number).
• You can see what photos are available online also at the Seward Community Library Association
website at https://www.friendsofsclm.org/historic-photos-art-and-archives. When you find one, note
the photo number and collection, date, who took it etc. so we can request it and credit it on the sign.
There are more available that are not online, so if you see it in a book credited to Seward Community
Library Association but can't find it, if you note where you saw it with a good description we can ask
about it.
• Mary Ann will submit photo request forms for what you need to Resurrection Bay Historical Society and
the Seward Community Library Association. Please submit your photo needs info in our working
spreadsheet on the photo requests tab.
Assigned: Above Funding Line If Woodlawn Cemetery moved to Round 2. Additional properties to
get history on for the tour not considered in this.
