HomeMy WebLinkAboutA013 - Letter dated February 13, 1989 from Deborah Fisher February 13, 1989
Members of Historic Preservation Commission:
We would like to take this opportunity to voice our support of
the application by the Historic Old Town Committee for desig-
nation of the proposed historic district.
We feel that designation of this area as an historic district
will enhance and preserve the integrity of those parts of Ames
instrumental in the development of the community. Like many of
our neighbors, Ames has a rich history. Unlike many of our
neighbors, the people who live and have lived in Ames have and
will continue to have a measured effect on local, national and
international development.
The people who once lived in the historic houses that remain
today have influenced the economic and social development of
much of our world. In Iowa, and in Ames, their effect, their
expertise and their example, remain immediate and their influence
on people in this community should remain strong and intact.
Their houses are an extension of their purpose and inspiration
and we citizens are concerned with their preservation.
We strongly encourage a positive recommendation to the Planning
and Zoning Commission to designate the proposed area as an
historic district
