SITE PROPOSALS [Nominations on file zoitlz HPD] State Register of Cultural Properties

Martinez Provertv. Caiion, NM (Taos County) Ms. Moody, HPD, noted that the Martinez Property nomination was tabled at the previous meeting in March and has been revised as per the committee's request that Shannon Papin, preparer of the nomination, provide additional photographs of the property and to research the property and its relationship to the Martinez family. The Martinez property is located in the thematic area of the Historic Resotirces of the Can'on Community in Taos which is listed in the State Register.

Ms. Moody noted that the Martinez property's period of significance is 1796-1988, which spans the time that it was under Martinez family ownership. The property is eligible under Criterion A - events and community development, and Criterion B for its continuous ownership through 1988 by the Martinez family and its association with the Don Fernando land grant (1796). The earliest buildings on the Martinez Property date to 1830. Additional buildings were added as the family size increased and represents a complex relationship in an extended family, resulting in the changing footprint of the property. The two oldest building were joined in recent years by an extension that created a pathway between the buildings. Other significant contributing elements to the Martinez Property include a collection of buildings, a courtyard, an acequia, and heritage fruit trees.

Ms. Papin said that in revising the nomination she switched the criterion significance from Criteria A and C to Criteria A and B. It was determined that the property did not exhibit a high enough level of integrity to be listed under Criterion C - architectural significance, which could be considered questionable given the significant alterations of the two joined buildings and concerns of the committee that surrounded the architectural aspect of the buildings. Criterion B was appropriate due to the significance of continuous ownership under one family.

Ms. Papin described the Cafion community as an agricultural community outside of Taos. It is one of the six original Don Fernando de Taos land grant parishes, with one of the most intact acequia systems in New Mexico which runs much like it did at its beginning. Ms. Papin initially thought to nominate the community as a district but the modern infill development exceeded the allowable percentages for a district. Still, the community has retained its agricultural connections.

Carmen Johnson, homeowner, noted that the acequia was granted in 1796 by Carlos Tres, who granted the use of water for agriculture in the Taos community.

Member Richey noted that representatives from the Town of Taos, a community leader, and the Mayordomo attended the last meeting in support of the nomination. Member Richey further stated that at the March meeting he had reservations about the nomination because the property was not visible from the road. Right across the road is a beautiful chapel and he had asked Ms. Papin to address certain issues with the nomination, which she has. The location is very tucked away and Member Richey supports the nomination.

Member Richey moved to untable the Martinez Property nomination. Member Fielder seconded and the motion passed unanimously.

Member Richey moved to place the Martinez Property nomination on the State Register of Cultural Properties, as submitted. Member Fielder seconded and the motion passed unanimously.

St. Catherine's Industrial Indian School, SR#1804 St. Catherine's was listed in the State Register in September 2001. The 2001 nomination did not clearly identify whether the nomination listed 12 contributing resources individually within the campus or whether it nominated the campus as a district. Additionally, the 2001 nomination did not identify the geographic boundary, either verbal or through a site plan. The committee has reviewed the 2001 nomination and was provided additional documents in order to determine whether or not the property meets t h ~ definition of a historic district and, if so, to identify the boundary.

St. Catherine's period of significance is 1887 - 1998 and is significant for its association with Katharine Drexel(1858 - 1955), who founded the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, an order dedicated to the education of Native Americans and African Americans both at St. Catherine's and in other states. St. Catherine's is also significant under the theme of the education of Native Americans. Also significant is the varied architectural styles, which include adobe and brick, territorial, mission revival, and Spanish Pueblo revival styles. The 2001 nomination identifies the campus as including 19 buildings and 1 cemetery of which 11 buildings and the cemetery are considered contributing resources and 7 buildings are non-contributing resources.

Ms. Moody explained the National Park Service's (NPS) definition of property type and boundary to the committee to provide guidance to the CPRC in determining whether St. Catherine's should be listed as a district or a collection of buildings on the campus. If the committee determines that St. Catherine's is a district then the boundary must be defined. A number of interested parties have inquired as to the property type of St. Catherine's.

Provertv Tvves: Building A building can be a single nomination and is used to refer to a historically and functionally related unit, such as a courthouse and jail or a house and barn. District "A district possesses a significant concentration, linkage, or continuity of sites, buildings, structures, or objects united historically or aesthetically by plan or physical development ..." Districts contain both contributing and non-contributing resources. Examples include college campuses, business districts, and residential areas.

Geoaravhical Boundaries: A boundary can encompass an entire resource and would contain both contributing and non- contributing resources. This is a definable geographic area that can be distinguished from surrounding properties by changes such as density, scale, type, age, style of sites, buildings, structures, and objects, or by documented differences in patterns of historic development or associations.

Ms. Moody provided a brief overview of various maps provided to the committee: Aerial Mav The 2001 nomination did not include a verbal boundary or a site map showing the boundary but did provide an aerial map (See Exhibit 1) that identified the contributing resources on campus.

2006 Citv Landmark Map The state contributing buildings were designated as City landmarks in 2006. The City of Santa Fe's 2006 City Landmark map (See Exhibit 2) of the campus depicts the state contributing and non-contributing buildings at St. Catherine's, as well as the buildings that have no designation, which were built in the 1970's or later.

1999 Land Survey Mav The 1999 survey map (See Exhibit 3 ) of the St. Catherine's Indian School property depicts a concentration of the buildings of the St. Catherine's campus and open space owned by the archdiocese and served for a period of time as the athletic field.

The Greaorv Survey The Gregory survey (See Exhibit 4) was done in 2010 and shows a concentration of buildings with a boundary outline of the study.

2011 Colbv Survev The Colby survey (See Exhibit 5) was a Historic Cultural Properties Inventory survey and shows the contributing resources in red. The survey also puts a boundary around the campus.

Member Fielder asked if the St. Catherine's deeds have boundaries. Ms. Moody replied that there probably were but the information is not available in the existing nomination.

Member Boggess asked if the map depicts the current property boundaries and Ms. Moody let him know that she did not know for certain if it is the property boundaries. The owner would be the person that could let one know of the property boundary. Member Boggess would be interested to know what the property boundaries were when the nomination was prepared. Ms. Moody explained that if the committee determines that St. Catherine's constitutes a district it will also be determining the boundary.

PUBLIC COMMENT John Polk Representing New Mexico Construction Consolidated, LLC (NMCC), the owner of St. Catherine's property, presented on behalf of his client. Mr. Polk, assisted by a display board (See Exhibit 6) showing various surveys that have been done on the St. Catherine's property, summed up as follows:

Mr. Polk cited multiple problems with the nomination, including a lack of a defined boundary and the nomination was submitted and approved over the objection of the previous owners.

Katharine Drexel formed the school in the 1880's. In 1889 [sic - 19981 the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament could no longer sustain the cost of upkeep to maintain the school and so deeded the property to a board, which were given 10 years to make the school economically viable or sell the property.

Mr. Polk pointed out the various survey studies, color-coded, to demonstrate his point to the committee. The national cemetery is to the west and to the east where there are 4 parcels of land.

The upper parcel (A) is a five acre plot whose title is wide open. Nobody knows who owns it. Just before statehood, Congress passed a statute that deeded all property within 3 Spanish leagues of the plaza to the City of Santa Fe with the proviso that if anyone showed up with a valid claim of title the City was obligated to quit claim it to that claimant. There was no time limitation. The City of Santa Fe cannot deed this property to the National Cemetery because someone might show up claiming ownership. The Veteran's Administration cannot accept a piece of property without a warranty deed.

The next parcel (B), was not originally part of St. Catherine's school campus but was loaned to the school in 1941 by the archdiocese, and who retained title until 2005. Parcel B s is the athletic field site.

Parcel C is the remaining area on which most of the structures were built,

The present owners had worked with the Veteran's Administration (VA), who would have to either expand or close the cemetery due to space limitations. The VA approached the present owner and asked if he could acquire the land to the east of the Santa Fe National Cemetery with the thought of expanding the cemetery. In 2005 the NMCC was formed to acquire the property. The ball field was deeded to the Sisters in 2005 from the archdiocese and the Sisters deeded to NMCC, the present owner of the property.

Mr. Polk showed the committee the VA map, dated December 2004, which shows the VA's original proposal for cemetery expansion. The lack of funds put the VA's plans on hold.

Mr. Polk put forth his display board depicting the property with various surveys that have been done on the St. Catherine's property, the earliest dating to -1920. Early on, a declaratory judgment suit was filed and property title was set. There have been numerous surveys conducted over time since then. The boundaries are still not clearly defined for the property and even NMCC does not know exactly what the boundaries are.

NMCC approached the City with its development plan for the property but it didn't go over well. The City designated 13 buildings as City Landmarks but did not declare it a district and made no attempt to define boundaries.

Mr. Polk asked the committee what the intent of the person that prepared the nomination was with regard to the boundary. Polk proposed moving three small houses on the northern end of the campus, which are contributing, and move them to the southern section of the campus, resulting in a compact campus that can be preserved. Mr. Polk agreed that the main campus building should be preserved and other adobe structures but to keep in mind they were built ad hoc. Additionally, the main building has additions and so should be preserved without the additions.

Mr. Polk asked that the committee table the nomination so that the owner can work with the CPRC on preserving the essence of St. Catherine's while moving forward with the development plan.

Steven Post Mr. Post, Sitting Board Chair for the Historic Santa Fe Foundation (HSFF), expressed the foundation's interest in the determination of the property boundaries and whether St. Catherine's is a district or a collection of buildings. Mr. Post informed the committee that the HSFF commissioned the study that resulted in the 2001 nomination and acknowledged the lack of locational information and speculated that this may have been, in part, the result of the Sisters opposition to the nomination. It seems unlikely that anyone on the committee would disagree that the St. Catherine's nomination coming forth in 2001 and being placed on the state register was the right thing to do, given its historical significance. Regarding the issues with the property boundaries, Mr. Post felt that some kind of compromise in terms of a management decision could have, or should have, been reached in 2001 and then we would not be here

attempting to compress the property into a smaller district as is currently proposed by the property owner. The property has been presented as a collection of buildings, but is a campus, which refers to a district. When one presumes that St. Catherine's was nominated as a collection of buildings it detracts from what the property really is, a campus, and does not take into account the qualities of place, which add to its significance. He implored the committee to consider St. Catherine's architecture but to also take into consideration the people that lived, taught, and studied at the school and the place they knew in the past. Prior to Mr. Polk's presentation Mr. Post had no idea how complex the property history was. The HSFF supports a "district" property type and will defer to the committee to determine the boundary.

Alan Watson Dr. Watson, representing the Old Santa Fe Association (OSFA), requested clarification of the property type and boundary. The CPRC does not have written guidelines for identifying cultural resources but relies on the National Register guidelines. The NPS Bulletin #15 defines a district as:

"A district derives its importance from being a unified entity, even though it is often composed of a wide variety of resources. The identity of a district results from the interrelationship of its resources, which can convey a visual sense of the overall historic environment or be an arrangement of historically or functionally related properties."

Dr. Watson provided the committee with a 1950's aerial map (See Exhibit 7) of St. Catherine's campus which demonstrates the visual quality of the campus. The map illustrates the cohesion of the campus and the geography of the district. Dr. Watson pointed out the somewhat level topography on the map which he suggested should be the district boundary. Dr. Watson provided the NPS Bulletin #15 definition of geographical boundaries:

"A district must be a definable geographic area that can be distinguished from surrounding properties by changes such as density, scale, type, age, style of sites, buildings, structures, and objects, or by documented differences in patterns of historic development or associations ..."

The photo demonstrates where all functions of the school took place, both educational and athletic, including the school, dorms, and Teacher's residences. Dr. Watson would like the committee to consider including the athletic fields to the nomination. It was an essential part of St. Catherine's, which was a boarding school. Trophy cases are still in the main building, photos of the students in the uniforms, demonstrating the prominence of the athletic field. It gave the school community a sense of who it was. The athletic program existed in the playing fields Dr. Watson asked the committee to consider the campus as a district and that the district include the athletic fields and determine boundaries at a later date.

David Rasch Mr. Rasch, Land Use Planner Supervisor with the City of Santa Fe, stated that he is available to answer any questions the committee may have.

Mr. Polk reiterated the owner's acknowledgment of the historical significance of St. Catherine's and asked that he be informed of any action taken with regard to the St. Catherine's boundaries and/or property type designation.

Vice-Chair Hendricks responded that if a motion is made and action taken by the committee relating to St. Catherine's it will be made in a public meeting.

Mr. Post said that in 2006, when the City of Santa Fe designated St. Catherine's as a Landmark, it did so as a collection of buildings and not as a district. The City's ordinance does not allow for a landmark to be designated in a historic district. Mr. Polk responded that the City has the power to create a historic district and could have in 2006 if they wanted to.

Mr. Rasch acknowledged that the City typically does not take on landmarking of its own right. The City will list landmarks outside of its historic districts when the properties are placed on the City Register, the city takes the lead from the State HPD. Since the State HPD recognized 13 contributing resources, the City landmarked those contributing resources, following the State HPD lead.

Vice-Chair Hendricks asked if the City could have formed another historic district rather than landmarking the buildings. Mr. Rasch responded that the City's ordinance provides the language to allow for requesting approval to create a new historic district, which would have to be submitted to the State HPD office. Typically the City will follow the state lead. If the state places a new district on the register the City would create a new district.

Vice-Chair Hendricks requested clarification from Mr. Rasch and asked if the City would not create a historic district until it was created at the state level. Mr. Rasch responded that the City does follow the lead of the state though the ordinance allows for the request by the City to the state to create a new historic district.

COMMITTEE DISCUSSION Member Richey informed the committee that he and Vice-Chair Hendricks toured the St. Catherine's campus and noted the original main building is made of adobe and concrete and is stunning. Member Richey described his thoughts of the campus tour, beginning with the main building which he thought is probably eligible to the National Register on its own and is probably the tallest adobe building in the state. This is definitely a campus and Member Richey believes it is a district.

Member Richey noted that after the main building, all else appears to have gone down with very little thought being given to the layout of the campus. There was never a master plan and

many of the subsequent buildings connection to "Old Main" are scattered in a haphazard fashion. The shength of St. Catherine's is in the main building alone.

Using the City Landmark map of 2006, Member Richey pointed to the buildings in green, which he thought are the most valuable, while the buildings in red, although some are substantial in their own right, have absolutely nothing to do with the campus. They have no relationship, and actually have a negative relationship because they take away from the principle building. There is no well conceived open space on the campus. Member Richey asked Ms. Moody to project the boundary map (1999 Survey Map) on the projection screen and pointed out his take for the natural boundary of the campus. Member Richey then pointed out the athletic field and said that he can appreciate Dr. Watson's position on the significance of the athletic fields but disagreed with his assessment.

Member Richey noted that he was educated in Philadelphia and is very familiar with the Drexels' history and what they stood for. It is remarkable that she came here and had such great success. The main building's surroundings should be pruned in order to allow one to appreciate the campus. If all of the buildings stay it will not succeed in any private development world and would probably have to be demolished. It would prove difficult to do anything with the property.

Member Richey suggested that the campus be considered a district with the boundary as outlined at the meeting (see Exhibit 5, Colby 2011) Member Richey outlined the natural boundaries of St. Catherine's as follows: on the north by the terrace that separates the athletic field from the campus, the south by Griffin Street, the east by the Arroyo del Rosario, and the west by the Santa Fe National Cemetery).

The committee does not want to change what is already designated as contributing. However, the non-contributing structures need to go away so that the core of the campus can be made whole. It will then regain the unity that the campus never had and result in an enlightened architectural space.

Vice-Chair Hendricks added that the main building is one of the most remarkable buildings he has ever seen.

* Member Richey moved to determine St. Catherine's campus property type a district and the district will be the campus minus the playing fields, and define the boundary as outlined [Member Richey outlined the natural boundaries of St. Catherine's as follows: on the north by the terrace that separates the athletic field from the campus, the south by Griffin Street, the east by the Arroyo del Rosario, and the west by the Santa Fe National Cemetery]. Member Boggess seconded.

Mr. Polk noted that the boundary as described would leave the three small buildings alone with a lot of open space before the next contributing buildings. Mr. Polk stated that it makes much

more sense to move the northern boundary line down near the other contributing structures and asked if the committee would consider holding off its decision until the next meeting so that the owner can develop that plan to present to the committee at the next meeting.

Member Richey noted that t l~e three buildings are considered contributing resources and does not want to change that at this time. However, it does not mean that the three buildings on the northern portion of the campus need to stay in the same location they are at now or that they must remain contributing resources. Member Richey encouraged Mr. Polk to return with a workable plan and the committee will consider it. Additionally, the committee will need to know how the VA feels about the plan.

Mr. Polk stated that the owners see this action as threatening. The City's ordinance follows the State boundary and the City has declined every proposal that the owner has submitted. If the committee is calling the campus a district then it must have boundaries. It only has the north line, but there does not appear to be set east and west boundaries. Mr. Polk wanted to know what part of NMCC's property is part of the district and what part is not.

The Gregory and Colby Surveys show the natural boundaries, and Member Richey pointed these out to Mr. Polk and informed him that private property lines are something that the owner must deal with. The committee does not deal with private property lines. The property owner needs to negotiate his private property lines and set the final survey plat boundary, not the committee.

Mr. Polk asked the committee to please vote this out or this may cause some action that the committee did not anticipate. Nobody will acknowledge that private property rights have any thing to say about the owner's plans. I am asking that it be tabled until the owner can come back with a plan.

Member Toya noted that the committee is charged with protecting cultural properties but not to make other policy that may arise from a committee decision. Member Toya stated that he supports the motion but does not want to diminish or limit property owner's rights. If the City designation automatically places restrictions, Member Toya stated that he is not sure he can support it.

Ms. Biella stated that the state's listing does not inherently impact or limit property owner rights. They are governed by the municipalities or county. She asked Mr. Rasch if he could discuss the City's ordinance with regard to St. Catherine's.

Mr. Rasch said the one can submit a request to demolish landmarked structures. There are additional processes involved in demolishing a landmark but it can be done. The H-Board postponed action on demolishing six of the non-landmarked buildings pending the committee's decision. The property owner can request demolition. Landmark status is the highest level of preservation on the City Register but in his opinion, having 13 landmarked structures versus a

state district does not change how the board looks at the property. The City has jurisdiction on the landmarked structures only.

Mr. Polk asked for demolition and alteration of several structures to achieve their goal and has encountered resistance. The owner wants to preserve the historic part of St. Catherine's and that has been the plan from the beginning. If all of a sudden there are restrictions placed upon the owner he will have to take self-protective action.

Vice-Chair Hendricks asked for a roll-call vote to Member Richey's earlier motion. Members Boggess, Richey, and Hendricks voted yes and Members Fielder and Toya oppose the motion. Motion passed [3-21.

Change in Status on the State Register of Cultural Properties 307 Main Street, Truth or Consea_uences (T or C), SR# 1876, Hot Springs Bathhouse, Commercial, and Main Street Historic District

307 Main Street is one of 150 contributing properties to the Hot Springs Bathhouse, Commercial, and Main Street Historic District. The building is the site of the former Buckhorn Saloon, grocery, and upstairs apartment. Fire damage occurred in 2005 and resulted in severe water damage to the adobe walls. Additionally, the walls have collapsed at the rear of the building and part of the roof has collapsed but damage is not apparent from the street. The City of T or C condemned the building and would like to proceed with the final condemnation process. The City has asked that the status of the building status be changed from a contributing resource within the district to a non-contributing resource.

The owner and HPD were contacted by the City in June 2010, resulting in HPD meeting with the City officials and property owner in July 2010. HPD followed up with a letter to the owner stating that the building had lost a significant amount of structural and architectural integrity and suggested the owner complete a rehabilitation plan, which HPD would re-evaluate the buildings integrity and its status in the district. No action was taken by the owner.

In March 2011 the City continued discussions with the owner regarding the plans. The owner stated the intent for eventual renovation. No further action was taken by the owner.

In April 2011, the City sent a letter to the owner citing non-action on the plan agreed to in July 2010, and informed the owner of the City's intent to proceed with condemnation for the safety and welfare of the citizens.

In May 2011, Sierra County sent a letter stating that the County did not oppose the change in status for 307 Main Street.

On June 3,2011 the owner telephoned the SHPO and followed up with an email, stating that they are looking into partnering with someone and looking into possible grants to utilize the property as a museum. Once funding is secured the owner plans to have the work completed

by the beginning of 2012. The owner has asked the CPRC to consider leaving 307 Main Street as a contributing resource in the district. Ms. Moody provided the committee with photographs, which depict the current state of the building.

Dorothy Victor, HPD, informed the committee that she was asked by the City to make a site visit to 307 Main Street in July 2010 to determine how much integrity remained with the property. Ms. Victor conducted a site visit last month on an adjoining property and noticed that improvements had not been done to 307 Main Street since the July 2010 meeting. The fire occurred six years ago and the building is in precarious condition. The upstairs apartment is gone and walls have fallen down. Ms. Victor expressed concern that if one repaired or restored the building that the existing building materials may not have sufficient integrity for it to remain a contributing resource to the district. There is very little salvageable material left of the original building.

Vice-Chair Hendricks asked that since very little salvaged material remains does the owner want to simply rebuild a new structure with a minimal amount of salvaged material?

Ms. Victor thought it seemed that way and explained that she had recommended to the City that the owner contact a structural engineer to access its integrity. The City conveyed the information to the owner but has not heard anything since providing it.

Vice-Chair Hendricks asked if there is a staff recommendation.

Ms. Victor stated that if the CPRC chooses to ally with the property owner's request, then she would suggest putting a time limit, a tangible frame of time for action, otherwise it might be put on hold indefinitely and continue to deteriorate. There is very little of the original structure that is salvageable.

* Member Richey moved to change the status of 307 Main Street within the Hot Springs Bathhouse, Commercial and Main Street District from a contributing property to a non- contributing property. Member Toya seconded and the motion passed unanimously.

Delisting: on the State Register of Cultural Proverties Woodall Farmstead, Bosaue Farms, SR# 1789, Valencia Countv

Both the Woodall Estate and the Village of Bosque Farms have requested the removal of the Woodall Farmstead from the State Register. After years of neglect the property has fallen into disrepair. Contributing resources include a 1936 adobe house, loafing shed, corral, milk house, chicken house, and assorted farm implements. The question before the CPRC is does the Woodall Farmstead retain a sufficient degree of historic features and original spatial organization to communicate its importance that listed the property in the first place. If the committee determines that the property does not retain a sufficient degree of historic features, the committee can vote to have the property delisted.

The Woodall Farmstead was part of the New Deal Resettlement Administration Development of an agrarian society of small farming villages and ranches, with agriculture and dairy farming sustaining the community as the base of the local economy. When initially listed, the owner was encouraged by the CPRC to repair and restore. The owner agreed but never followed through. The previous State Register Coordinator noted that the nomination lacked information that had been requested by the CPRC. After years of neglect it now lacks the integrity that allowed for a state register listing and is now in hazardous condition.

In March 2011 an official request was received at the HPD from the Village of Bosque Farms to delist the property. The Village of Bosque Farms had made repeated attempts to get the owner to maintain the property.

The owner's are now deceased and their daughter has requested that the property be delisted because there are no funds to maintain it. The Village of Bosque Farms is considering purchasing the property.

Gail Jones, Clerk Administrator for the Village of Bosque Farms, asked that the property be delisted. Mr. Woodall's heirs have no intention of bringing the property up to code. The owner's are in agreement with the Village regarding delisting.

Member Fielder moved to delist the Woodall Farmstead. Member Boggess seconded and the motion passed unanimously.

Preservation Loan Fund Update In the interest of time, Ms. Victor presented a report on the loan fund and offered to provide additional news at the August meeting when the priorities are set for the year. Vice-Chair Hendricks agreed.

Rules & Regulations Ms. Biella recommended that the committee prepare regulations for identification of cultural properties, which the committee is charged with doing. Ms. Biella asked the Vice-Chair Hendricks to instruct HPD to move forward, if that is the committee's will, and asked if there are members of the committee that she could work with. Both Vice-Chair Hendricks and Member Boggess volunteered. Vice-Chair Hendricks asked Ms. Biella to contact him and Member Boggess when she is ready.
