There appears to be a bit of a "Catch-22" regarding the specific listing of the site on the National Register of Historic <br /> Places. As we have read and understand the designation of the Central City—Black Hawk National Landmark,the <br /> buildings,while not specifically listed,would be considered "contributing structures"and the site"contributing"to the <br /> National Landmark. Further, upon communication with the State Historic Preservation Office,we are told that no <br /> further designation would be given (or needed), as the buildings/site are"already included in the designation" as a <br /> result of the National Landmark and their vintage(>75 years old). We will likely seek the local historic landmark <br /> designation with the City to further the cause of preserving the buildings and equipment in their operable state. <br /> I'll look forward to your clarification regarding the SRU, prior to responding to the DRMS. <br /> Thanks Matt—I hope the answers help you out to decide what to do and when. If a SRU application is complete and <br /> submitted, it will take approximately 60-90 days to process and get it to a City Council agenda for their review and <br /> decision. <br /> Thank you! <br /> Matt Collins <br /> From:Julie Esterl [maiIto:*ulie.esterl@baselinecorp.coml <br /> Sent:Wednesday, May 10,2017 2:20 PM <br /> To:Vince Harris<vince@baselinecorp.com>; 'mcollins@blackfoxmining.com'<mcollins@blackfoxmining.com> <br /> Cc: 'Cynthia Linker' <CLinker(@citvofblackhawk.ora>; Ethan Watel<ethan@basalinecorp.com>; 'Janice Beecher' <br /> <ibeecher@cityofblackhawk.org>; gotten7386@aol.com;Sara Lang<SLang@cityofblackhawk.org> <br /> Subject: RE: Bates-Hunter Mine, Golden Gilpin Mill <br /> Matt, <br /> Thank you for your email and the Land Improvement Survey. The City of Black Hawk is not in a position to grant a <br /> Special Use Permit or variance to building setbacks, but is not opposed to the buildings remaining. In addition, City Staff <br /> is likely to recommend approval for designating the property as a Local Historic Landmark. <br /> Deon Wolfenbarger, Historic consultant to the City of Black Hawk, has indicated that the Otten property is eligible for <br /> local historic landmark designation which would make the owner eligible for state historic tax credits for rehabilitation, <br /> but the property owner would need to get listed on the National Register of Historic Places for federal tax credits. <br /> The Procedure for local designation is as follows: <br /> • Submit application to City Manager <br /> • Application is referred to the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) <br /> • Review and recommendation by HPC to the City Council <br /> • City Council review/Public hearing: <br /> o Notices sent to property owners <br /> o Signs posted indicating the time, date and place of public hearing <br /> o Legal notice placed in the newspaper <br /> o Written notice sent to the Building Official <br /> • Council action within 30 days of hearing via Ordinance <br /> • Recording of the Ordinance <br /> • Letters of notification sent to property owners <br /> The City of Black Hawk Municipal Code outlines the process in detail and is located on line—Chapter 16,Article XIX, <br /> Sections 16-421 through 16-432. http://municipalcode.cityofblackhawk.org/ <br /> 2 <br />
