Box 490 Elk River, Minnesota 55330 rhaug@ci. elk-river.mn.us Re: Proposal for Elk River Water Tower National Register Nomination Dear Ms. Haug: The Foster House 100 North First Street Minneapolis MN 55401 612 338-1987 phone 612 338-2668 fax www.hessroise.com HessRoise Thank you for inviting us to submit a proposal for preparing a National Register nomination for the Elk River Water Tower. We propose the following work plan to complete the nomination: 1. Project Initiation and Literature Search To begin the project, we will examine historical materials that you have gathered. We will also explore materials from our in-house files and library that we have accumulated from past water tower projects, including a National Register nomination for the Prospect Park water tower in Minneapolis. We will conduct additional research as needed at repositories such as the Minnesota Historical Society reference library, State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), Sherburne History Center, Elk River Public Library, and University of Minnesota libraries. In addition to compiling information on the history of the Elk River water tower, we will collect materials about the evolution of water towers in the twentieth century and on the general historic context that produced Elk River's water tower. We will also meet with the SHPO National Register historian to discuss issues related to the nomination. 2. Fieldwork National Register nominations require a detailed physical description of the property. We will visit the water tower and record our observations with field notes and digital photographs. We will use film photography to produce the black-and-white 8-by-10-inch prints that will accompany the National Register nomination. ~~ ~ 3. Preparing the National Register Nomination We will prepare the National Registez• nomination. following the requirements of the Secretary of the Interiar and the SH:PO. We will submit a draft of the nomination. to you and the SHPO for an initial review. Upon receipt of comments on the draft, we will. complete any necessary revisions. We will submit the final nomination to you and the SHPO. We will provide the SHPO with color digital images of the property and its setting, an original USES map showing the property's boundaries, and black-and-white prints to accompany the nomination. You will receive a CD with. a digital copy of these materials. We will. attend the State Review Board meeting when the nomination is presented and answer any questions that at•e raised. After the nomination has been. approved by the board, the SHPO fot•wards it to Washington for f nal review by the National Park Scrvicc and official listing by the Keeper of the National. Register. This process is typically completed. forty-fve to sixty days after the State Review Board meeting. A budget to complete this work is attached, Please let me know if you have any questions about our proposal. We are very interested in working with you on this important project.
