This project was funded in part through a Certified Local Government grant from the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, as ,:.._'ministered by the Texas Historical Commission. Projoift Propose! Certified Local Government Subgrants (Part U) Scope of work: In cooperation with the downtown revitalization and promotion organization and downtown business owners, the Commission plans to' prepare and publish design guidelines for the Central Business District, including ft Depot District and the Broadway Corridor. The document will stress the need for pro&K ion of these areas through sensitive restoration and rehabilitation, appropriate infill construction, and unique streetscape and landscaping. The guidelines will highlight.opporttxtities for restoration of historic bi.aldings in the target areas and identify those thaat have potential National Register significance. The Central Business District of Lubbock contains a wide variety of coAtmeraal, industrial and phis buildings of a variety of ages, sizes, and styles. die Broadway Corridor, which extends beyondthe traditional C8D boundaries, also includes historical residences converted to officand commercial uses. The Depot Distr(ct is centered on the Fort Worth and Denver South Plains Railway Depot (on the Natbnal Register) and the Cactus Theater, for which listing is currently being sought The Depot District is a rapidly changing transition area being converted from industrial and commercial uses to an entertainment district of dubs, restaurants, and associated businesses. Methodology: The Commission proposed to • engage a consultant to pFepare the guidelines. The Convnission and the, City staff will facilitate the. prepar#Uon by soliciting public comment and participation from the downtown busineaa comrivs,ity, local preservation and professional design organizations and interested citizens. It is anticipated that this participation would take place in a series of workshops arranged by the city staff and conducted by the consultant. Anticipated Results: Although immediate benefit will be derived fronthe heightened public awareness and perception generated by the workshops, publication of a design guidelines document will provide long-range design assistance. It will also create a set of guidelines for the Planning and Zoning Commission to use in instanges where site plan review is part of the zoning process, and for use by the UDHPC if the City Council institutes a design review and comment process in these areas.

Box 2000 Lubbock, Texas 79457 RE: FY1995 Certified Local Government Grants Dear Sally, This letter conveys preliminary approval for the City of Lubbock Certified Local Government's request for a FY1995 grant-in-aid in the amount of $5,684. Descriptions of funded preservation projects appear on the enclosed Approval of the FY1995 Certified Local Government Grants. We are working with the National Park Service to eliminate the need for formal contracts for projects under $5,000. In any event, the process should be finalized in January 1995 to allow your projects to proceed. Please check with me or Luis Arellano, Grants Administrator, for clarification about this process. As you may have noticed, grant awards include training opportunities for staff and your landmark commissioners. We encourage attendance at our annual CLG conference (tentatively scheduled for March 1995) and the National Trust conference in Fort Worth (October 1995). These programs will be focused on meeting the practical needs of your commission on both introductory and advanced levels. The Trust conference will run concurrently with the American Planning Association's conference and should provide a good chance for interaction between preservationists and planners. We fully support your ongoing efforts to foster public recognition of historic resources in your community. We hope this grant funding will enhance preservation efforts already underway. If further questions arise, you may reach me directly at (512)463-6046. Sincerely, Bruce D. Jensen CLG Grants Coordinator Texas Historical Commission P.O.

Box 2000 Lubbock, Texas 79457 RE: FY1995 Certified Local Government Grants Dear Sally, This letter conveys preliminary approval for the City of Lubbock Certified Local Government's request for a FY1995 grant-in-aid in the amount of $5,684. Descriptions of funded preservation projects appear on the enclosed Approval of the FY1995 Certified Local Government Grants. We are working with the National Park Service to eliminate the need for formal contracts for projects under $5,000. In any event, the process should be finalized in January 1995 to allow your projects to proceed. Please check with me or Luis Arellano, Grants Administrator, for clarification about this process. As you may have noticed, grant awards include training opportunities for staff and your landmark commissioners. We encourage attendance at our annual CLG conference (tentatively scheduled for March 1995) and the National Trust conference in Fort Worth (October 1995). These programs will be focused on meeting the practical needs of your commission on both introductory and advanced levels. The Trust conference will run concurrently with the American Planning Association's conference and should provide a good chance for interaction between preservationists and planners. We fully support your ongoing efforts to foster public recognition of historic resources in your community. We hope this grant funding will enhance preservation efforts already underway. If further questions arise, you may reach me directly at (512)463-6046. Sincerely, Bruce D. Jensen CLG Grants Coordinator Texas Historical Commission P.O. Box 12276 * Austin, Texas * 512/463-6094
