  • Historic Homes Project: Alex Johnson reported that the Catron family received a National Register plaque during a City Council meeting. He is working on code changes, including lowering the qualifying age from 75 years to 50 years and replacing a certificate with a smaller plaque for homes on the Riverton registry. A map of home construction years using GIS is also planned. Business cards and a group email (hpc@rivertonutah.gov) have been established. A meeting with City Attorney Ryan Carter and the Communications Department is needed to finalize the flyer and code amendments. Kim Rindlisbach identified three qualifying homes but awaits proper procedures before approaching homeowners.

  • Next steps: Schedule a meeting with City Attorney Ryan Carter and Communications to finalize code changes and the historic homes flyer. Complete the open and public meetings training for all members. Continue oral history interviews after the holidays. Finalize park history narratives for new signs.
