• I, <br /> City of <br /> Elk -, <br /> River <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: Planning Commission <br /> FROM: Heritage Preservation Commission <br /> DATE: August 28, 2001 <br /> SUBJECT: Trout Brook Farms South <br /> The Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) reviewed the items on the 8/28/01 <br /> Planning Commission agenda and felt there were no conflicts or issues regarding <br /> the preservation of the city's heritage with the possible exception of"Trout Brook <br /> South". The property involved with this request is part of the State Historic <br /> • Preservation Office (SHPO) site 21Haj. Scatter lithic (stone) artifacts have been <br /> found on this site. If any federal permits are required, a review of the project by <br /> SHPO will be triggered. It is possible that SHPO will require a phase 1 <br /> archaeological investigation of the site. <br /> Apparently, the artifacts found on the site were reported to SHPO by a previous <br /> property owner. Little additional information was available. The site is not on a <br /> prominent land feature and is some distance from any waterway. In the opinion <br /> of the HPC, the site is not considered an archaeologically sensitive area. <br /> However, artifacts have been reported. <br /> The Heritage Preservation Commission is recommending that any additional <br /> artifacts that are found during any phase of this project be reported immediately to <br /> the city and SHPO. City inspectors should be made aware of this potential on the <br /> site. Additionally, the HPC recommends that city reserve the right to require <br /> further archaeological investigation, if warranted at a later time. <br /> • <br />
