PURPOSE: To consider selection of a consultant to prepare the
historic inventory manuscript as part of the Phase
III Historic Inventory.
BACKGROUND: At its January 19, 1993 meeting, the Board of
Commissioners authorized the County Manager to apply
for $15,000 from the Survey and Planning Grant
Program administered by the State Historic
Preservation Office. The Planning Director was
notified on March 15, 1993 that the application had
been approved, and the Board of Commissioners voted
unanimously to accept the grant on April 5, 1993 .
The grant amount plus the County's matching share
will total $30,000 and be used to conduct an
inventory of archaeological sites in the
unincorporated portions of Orange County ($20,000 )
and prepare the manuscript for the countywide
inventory ( $10,000) .
The County share would consist of $15,000 cash plus
a $5,200 in-kind contribution. Professional services
funds requested as part of the Planning Department ' s
FY 1993-94 budget would be used to cover the cash
match. The in-kind contribution includes supplies
and equipment expense, and Planning Department staff
time on the project. Personnel and operating
expenses will be covered in the FY 1993-94 Planning
Department budget.
The Historic Preservation Commission considered the
selection of a consultant to prepare the historic
inventory manuscript at its May 26, 1993 meeting.
2
Following a discussion of the options, it was the
concensus of Commission members to use a "pool"
approach; e.g. , group of potential consultants from
which one could be selected. The Commission also
asked that someone from Archives & History or
another source be invited to attend a Commission
meeting and discuss the steps involved in preparing
an inventory publication.
Following the Commission meeting, the Planning
Director spoke with Claudia Brown and Catherine
Bishir of the State Historic Preservation Office.
Ms. Bishir has responded to the questions and
concerns of the Commission through the attached July
14 , 1993 letter. The major points contained in her
correspondence are as follows:
1. The grant awarded to Orange County for the
manuscript preparation was the first of its
kind. The grant was awarded because of Orange
County's desire to proceed immediately to
preparation of an inventory publication.
2 . The principal tasks involved in Phase III
[manuscript preparation] include:
a. Expand and edit overview essay from Phases
I and II to incorporate additional
historical research, and provide further
analysis of architectural trends and their
relationships to county history and
statewide trends;
b. Select properties to be represented in
publication [Typical surveys include about
500 properties. ] ;
c. Determine order of presentation of entries
[e.g. , by township or other method] ;
d. Expand and edit entries on properties as
needed;
e. Make additional photographs of properties
as needed to correct for lighting problems
or other conditions;
f. Order publication size photographs;
g. Locate and obtain prints of selected local
documentary photographs;
h. Obtain any HABS drawings needed;
3
i. Decide upon/commission any floor plan
drawings or farm complex drawings needed;
j . Assemble illustrations/label as needed;
k. Write captions for illustrations; and
1. Prepare forward, acknowledgements, etc.
During this phase, SHPO staff as well as
Historic Preservation Commission provides
intensive assistance in form of editing and
suggestions.
3 . Upon completion of the manuscript and
illustrative materials, Orange County can work
directly with a graphic designer and/or the
publisher. The manuscript is prepared in hard
copy on paper and on computer disks, enabling
most publishers to set type from disk.
4 . Following completion of the manuscript, the
publication can be prepared with costs being
covered by no-interest loans from the
Federation of N.C. Historical Societies, pre-
sale of books, donations from local patrons
and/or county/municipal governments; and other
methods. Counties normally produce 2 ,000-3,000
copies.
5. The SHPO staff strongly recommends that Todd
Peck and Jody Carter be selected to prepare the
manuscript for the following reasons:
a. The principal investigator knows the
county and its resources better than
anyone;
b. The principal investigator has a great
deal at stake [professional reputation] to
serve as an incentive to do a good job;
c. Other consultants, including Kelly Lally,
Ruth Little, and Scott Powers, are
unavailable to prepare the manuscript;
d. The best survey publications are those
prepared by the principal investigators;
e. The SHPO staff will be involved
extensively in reviewing/editing drafts of
the manuscript; and
4
f. The SHPO staff is very impressed with the
quality of work performed by Todd and
Jody.
At its July 28, 1993 meeting, the Historic
Preservation Commission voted unanimously to
recommend that Todd Peck and Jody Carter be employed
as the consultants to prepare the historic inventory
manuscript as part of Phase III of the Historic
Inventory.
RECOMMENDATION: The Administration recommends that Todd Peck and
Jody Carter be employed as the consultants to
prepare the historic inventory manuscript as part
of Phase III of the Historic Inventory.
The Administration further recommends that the
consultants be reimbursed for their services in an
amount not to exceed $10,000.

Dear Marvin:
As you requested, this letter is to summarize and expand upon our recent conversation concerning
the Phase III Orange County Survey grant for FY 1993. I hope this will facilitate the planning
and initiation of the project.
Background and Purpose of Grant Project
The purpose of this grant project is to bridge the gap between the end of the Phase I and Phase II
survey projects and the production of a manuscript ready for an Orange County survey publica-
tion. This is the first such grant we have awarded for this purpose. We encouraged your applica-
tion for this purpose because we have observed the need for such projects in other counties and
believed that Orange County would be an excellent opportunity for initiating such a project. This
is particularly true because the county has a strong preservation planning approach and wants to
pursue a high quality survey book as soon as possible upon completion of the survey fieldwork.
We have found that in many counties, there is considerable delay between completion of the
fieldwork and final report and production of a survey publication. (This was•the case, for exam-
ple, in Chatham County.) This is especially a problem when, after the fieldwork and final report
are completed, the county has to raise additional funds to support the additional research, rewrit-
ing, selection of entries, ordering of photographs, making of drawings, and other preparation of
the final manuscript. Because both the State Historic Preservation Office and Orange County see
the survey publication as a very valuable preservation and planning tool, we saw this grant project
as a way to assure continuity and timely production following immediately upon the completion
of the fieldwork and final report which will be completed this summer. it
Definition of Project •
As you know, because this is a new kind of project, we will work out some of the specific tasks
as we proceed, but we can define the basics of the project now. Upon completion of the Phase II
project, Jody Carter and Todd Peck will have produced the following: (1.) a final report which
includes a concise but thorough overview of the county's architectural and historical character;
(2.) several hundred files on the properties they have surveyed, including brief, written entries of
one to three paragraphs on all surveyed properties, photographs, and survey forms; (3.) survey
maps with all surveyed sites marked on USGS maps. As you also know, the Phase I survey of
Chapel Hill Township also produced files including entries, forms, and photographs; survey
maps; and a much briefer final report in which Ruth Little and Kelly J ally summarized their find-
ings in that township survey.
In Phase III, the focus will be on producing from these materials a manuscript suitable for publi-
cation as a survey book similar to others such as the Pitt County survey publication. Here are
what I believe to be the principal tasks:
Gr,
109 East Jones Street • Raleigh, North Carolina 27601-2807 �
' 6
--Expand, deepen, and edit overview essay to incorporate additional historical research, further
synthesize findings of Phase I as well as Phase II, and provide further analysis of architectural
trends and their relationships to county history and statewide architectural patterns. (I should
mention that here, especially, the quantity of work to be done will become clearer once the final
report is completed. I should also mention that in this task, especially, both I and a research his-
torian here at Archives and History will provide intensive assistance in the form of editing and
suggestions. We also anticipate and hope that the Orange County commission will provide sug-
gestions and assistance.) The essay and the entries and all other written material will be produced
both as hard copy on paper and on computer disks in a generally used word processing system,
which will enable most publishers to set type from a disk rather than re-keyboarding the text.
--Select which properties will be represented in the publication. The exact number and proportion
of the total will be defined based on several factors, including significance and condition of
properties, as well as the probable length of the book. Typically survey publications will include
entries on about 500 properties. Selection will involve consultation with the commission.
--Determine order of presentation of entries (e.g., by township).
--Expand and edit entries on properties as needed and conduct additional research for key entries.
--Make additional photographs of properties where lighting or condition previously prevented
good photographs. (Note: Archives and History will provide assistance here by assigning the staff
photographer to the project for key properties.)
--Order publication size (usually 5x7) photographs for publication. (We anticipate that printing
through our office photography lab will be part of the project budget.)
--Locate and obtain prints of selected local documentary photographs of Orange County scenes
and properties.
--Obtain any HABS drawings needed.
--Decide upon and commission any floor plan drawings or farm complex drawings needed.
--Assemble illustrations (photographs, drawings, maps) and label as needed.
--Write captions as needed for illustrations.
--Prepare forward, acknowledgements, bibliography, and other front and back material such as
glossary if desired.
There are surely additional tasks which.I have omitted, but these encompass most of them.
With these tasks completed, the manuscript and illustrative materials should be in a condition
from which Orange County can then work directly with a graphic designer and printer. In some
cases these are separate; in others a publisher will provide both, or a printer will have a good in-
house designer. This project does not include the production stage; it is anticipated that, as in
other county survey publications, the local government will see the project through production. I
should mention here that through the Federation of North Carolina Historical Societies, we offer
no-interest loans to assist in covering printing costs. Pre-sale of books, donations from local
patrons, and other methods assist in publication costs as well. Normally, counties produce 2-
3,000 copies of the survey book, which usually sell out rather quickly, and sales usually pay back
the cost of production.
Selecting the Consultant for Phase III
Normally and ideally, the principal investigator(s) who conducted the fieldwork for the survey
and prepared the final report will be the best choice to carry the manuscript through its final
•
•
7
phase. There are several reasons. Probably the most important reason is that the principal ifiVesti
gator knows the county and the resources recorded better than anyone else and is best qualified to
provide the knowledge and continuity to undergird the additional analysis, tie in additional
research, and make selections for the publication. Secondly, it is the principal investigator whose
name will be on the book and who has, as well as the county, a great deal at stake in making that
book the best it can be. When the principal investigator carries the project through to this stage, it
is his or her book, and the basis for obtaining future work and establishing (or enhancing) a
professional reputation. In some cases, where there has been a delay between phases, the princi-
pal investigator has not been available to continue, and other consultants have been recruited to
do editing and research, but this is far from the best method.
In our conversation you mentioned the interest in considering a pool of qualified candidates for
this next phase--in order to produce the best publication possible, a goal we all share. Prime
qualifications include familiarity with Orange County architecture and history, a solid grounding
in architectural history including vernacular architecture, and research, writing, photographic,
and organizational skills. I have checked on a few possibilities in addition to Todd and Jody.
Kelly Lally, who worked on Phase I, is now employed fulltime with Wake County and unable to
take on the work. Ruth Little, who also worked on Phase I and is among our finest and most
experienced architectural historians, stated that she would not be able to do this project. s that
would be as well qualified as these. Ruth also stated emphatically her belief that Todd and Jody
were the best people for the project, for, as she said, "this is their survey." To get a range of per-
spectives, I discussed the Orange County project with Kelly, Ruth, and Scott Power, the author
of the excellent Pitt County survey book, now employed in our Eastern Office. All made a few
essential points independently that may be useful for your consideration.
First, in nearly every case, the survey publications that are the best are those that are carried from
start to finish by the principal investigators, who have the most at stake and who know the
resources best. Many of our very best survey publications--including the forthcoming Wake
County survey book by Kelly Tally, the fine Pitt County survey book by Scott Power, the Nash
County survey book by Rick Mattson, and the Lincoln County survey book by Marvin Brown, to
name a few--are works in which the principal investigators conducted their first county surveys
and produced their first survey publications. In all these cases, the surveyor obviously had a great
deal invested in malting the survey book of the highest quality possible, and the results speak for
themselves.
Second, as Kelly, Ruth, and Scott also stressed in their comments, and as'both Claudia Brown
and I have mentioned in our conversations, an additional key factor in all these projects is that
our office is intensively involved throughout the project. We will have the essay read and
critiqued by our research historian, and, as architectural survey coordinator, I will work closely
with the project to review drafts, edit for content and style, and make a variety of suggestions for
assuring the quality of the manuscript. I recall specifically how closely we have worked to help
both Scott Power and Kelly Lally focus and deepen and edit their manuscripts, both the essays
and the entries. In addition, we hope that local experts will also assist in similar ways: this is also
a key factor in the quality of such publications.
For these reasons we strongly recommend that Orange County continue to employ Jody Carter
and Todd Peck for this next phase. We have been quite impressed with their work thus far on the
project. They have displayed great devotion to the project, and their work has been timely, effi-
cient, and of high quality. They gave a first-rate presentation at the recent National Register
Advisory Committee meeting, and I anticipate your commission will receive an equally excellent
presentation. They have also shown exemplary willingness and ability to respond to suggestions
and constructive criticism in their fieldwork and writing. We have every confidence in their
ability to carry this project through this next phase. We believe that the most satisfactory results
will come from their continued work on the project.
Because the current project will wind up in late August, it seems wise to move as quickly as pos-
sible to finalize plans and selection of consultant for the next phase. If for some reason Todd and
Jody are not selected, they need to find other work as soon as possible. It would be unfortunate to 8
delay selection and put them in a situation of having to make other plans that make it impossible
for them to undertake this final phase of the project. From our perspective, as our grants adminis-
trator Lloyd Childers advises, we do not require a formal request for proposals in a project that
continues from one phase to another in this way. (For example, Duplin County's survey is staged
through two fiscal years, but as they continued with the same principal investigator, we simply
wrote an additional contract for the next phase. This would be possible here if desired.)
I hope that these observations will be useful to your commission as they consider the plans for
this next phase. We believe that this type of grant will be a useful one in assuring continuity and
timeliness in production of survey publications, and thus enhancing the educational and planning
value of the architectural survey. Please let me know if I can provide any further assistance.
Sincerely,
, / •

AGENDA ITEM #1: CALL TO ORDER - WELCOME NEW MEMBER AND
INTRODUCTIONS
Todd Dickinson introduced and officially welcomed Tom Allison to
the Orange County Historic Preservation Commission.
AGENDA ITEM #2 : CONSIDERATION OF ADDITIONS TO AGENDA
Pat Dickinson added that she would like to talk about-the
Commission ' s summer schedule. This item was placed under
Decision Items. Collins added that he would like to discuss a
phone call he received today from Lloyd Childers, State Historic
Preservation Office, regarding a visit from a State Departmen .
representative to speak at the next meeting of the Historic
Preservation Commission. This item was placed under Discussion
Items.
AGENDA ITEM #3 : APPROVAL OF MINUTES - April 28 , 1993
MOTION: Anderson moved to approve the minutes for April 28 ,
1993 . Seconded by Pat Dickinson.
VOTE: Unanimous .
AGENDA ITEM #4 : DISCUSSION ITEMS
a. Manuscript/Publication Process - Coordination with
Municipalities
The Commission discussed a memo from the Planning Staff regarding
how to proceed with the inventory publication, specifically how
to coordinate with the municipalities in Orange County.
10
Once a consultant is selected, a committee could be set up to
help combine the data on historic structures in the Towns of
Hillsborough, Chapel Hill , Carrboro, and possibly Mebane , with
the County ' s inventory. The committee could be made up of one
Commission member and one staff member from each jurisdiction.
Staff recommends that this "coordination" or "Dovetail Committee"
function separately from other committees also appointed to
assist the consultant (s) . That is, other committees would do the
work of editing, marketing/promotion, the index, etc.
With regard to the Town of Hillsborough ' s lack of a complete
inventory, it appears that the consultant and committee could use
the National Register nomination for the historic district as
well as the "Photocensus" compiled by Susan Bellinger .
Todd Dickinson pointed out that the Historical Society of Pitt
County formed committees of a much larger group of people that
helped to organize the Pitt County Inventory.
Collins stated that he and Emily Cameron had discussed how to go
about preparing the inventory and what should be included in it.
Should every structure in the County identified by the
consultants be included? Pat Dickinson mentioned that in the
inventories she' s familiar with includes every inventory
structure. Collins stated that if every structure is included,
it would be in excess of 800 not counting the municipalities.
Anderson stated that maybe the Commission should think of the
municipalities as doing their own inventory, particularly
Hillsborough and Chapel Hill.
Allison pointed out that Alamance County' s inventory is in a
loose leaf notebook with approximately 6-10 entries on each page.
This way the inventory can be expanded. -
Ward pointed out that the Commission will have to decide if they
want a complete inventory that represents preservation efforts or
a coffee table book.
Todd Dickinson stated that he is in favor of everything being
included in the inventory, which will probably make more people
buy it.
The Commission then discussed the layout, the kind of work
involved and the time involved for the project. Collins stated
that as a time saver, files are being set up for each structure
inventoried, grouped by township. When someone is selected to
write the manuscript, then they will start with the history,
copies of all the photographs and copies of inventory sheets .
Collins suggested that if a goal is set, it should be set very
high to include every inventory structure in the County including
the municipalities . Pat Dickinson agreed and stated that this
will probably never be done again. The Commission decided to
include all the municipalities or none .
•
Anderson asked if Chapel Hill is in the process of being
11
inventoried. Collins responded that last year Chapel Hill
inventoried the Gimghoul historic district and the University,
and according to Beverly Kawalec this covered what they
considered to be the most significant historic sites and
structures.
Collins suggested to separate preparation of the manuscript and
publication of the manuscript. He suggested to prepare the
manuscript and then solicit contributions from municipalities,
historical societies , etc.
Todd Dickinson asked how much money has been funded for
preparation of the manuscript. Collins responded $10 , 000 . 00 .
Ward discussed the layout and what he thought would be the
:heapest way to go. He stated that if you have someone to do the
layout in the beginning, you would save a lot of money in the end
with printing costs . He suggested doing the layout with a word
processing package such as Microsoft Word or WordPerfect before
sending to the publisher. Experience with word processing may be
something to consider when hiring a consultant.
Anderson suggested to have someone who has completed a similar
inventory to come and talk to the Commission to discuss the
layout, printing costs, etc.
Ward stated that a colleague of his, Steve Davis, who has done
layouts on several books and is an editor in southeastern
archaeology, could come and talk to the Commission and would not
require a professional fee. Todd Dickinson stated that Planning
Staff could also arrange for a representative from Archives and
History to come to the next meeting to discuss the manuscript.
Collins stated that he would like for the Orange County inventory
to be the best in the State. The Commission agreed that the
person selected to do the manuscript should be good at writing
histories, inventories, and knowledgeable in architecture. Todd
Dickinson suggested that the consultants be asked what they cap
give the Commission for $10, 000. 00 .
White agreed that first the manuscript should be written and then
the layout should be done.
b. Phase III Inventory - Consultant Selection
Ward stated that he had talked to Delores Hall and Mark Mathis at
the Archives & History office and they recommended that the
archaeological inventory be done by students through the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He stated that
since UNC is in the middle of the County and the students are
studying archaeology, he agreed with their recommendation. He
further stated that he feels a responsibility that he should see
that the best job possibly is done, but he would not receive any
compensation from the project. He also noted that the students
are all Ph. D. candidates .
Anderson asked why look any further for resources when the top-
12
notched ones are right here in the County. White stated that she
agreed with Anderson. Todd Dickinson asked if the consultants
would be paid by the University. Ward stated yes . The principal
investigator would be responsible for the amount of work being
done. Time sheets would be turned in. He stated that a specific
document will be drawn up.
Collins commented that the best approach would be to run the
project through the University. It would also save time with
RFP ' s . He stated that the Planning Department has used graduate
and undergraduate students from UNC for a number of years with
really good results.
Trawick Ward left the room and did not participate in the vote.
MOTION: Anderson moved that the archaeological portion of the
inventory be done through the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill. Seconded by White.
White stated that it ' s ood if a
g professional can do quality work
for a set amount of money. Todd Dickinson agreed that the
Commission is lucky to have great resources and don't have to
explain to them what is wanted but they can explain what should
be done and then do it. The Commission will also get a good
financial deal.
VOTE: Unanimous.
Ward re-entered the room.
Collins stated that there are options for the selection of
consultants for the manuscript. One option is to continue to
employ Todd Peck and Jody Carter for the writing of the
manuscript. The other option is to send out RFP' s (Request for
Proposals) to people that the Commission is familiar with and
that the Historic Preservation Office recommends. He stated that
the benefit of staying with Todd and Jody is that they are the
consultants doing the inventory and they are familiar with the ,
vast majority of structures in the County. He stated that
Catherine Bisher feels that Todd and Jody can do a good job
writing/preparing the manuscript. It will be up to the
Commission to provide the guidance in what is wanted. He further
stated that if an RFP is sent out, you might possibly get someone
who would do the manuscript for the amount of money involved and
who had the word processing skills necessary to do a draft
layout. He stated that he is looking for guidance from the
Commission as to how to go about hiring a consultant for the
manuscript.
Ward clarified that technical skills are good to have. He stated
that it would be nice to get someone with both technical skills
and knowledge.
Anderson stated that she would like to see Todd and Jody ' s work
before she made any decision about them. White agreed with
Anderson. She stated that her first reaction is to take someone
who is familiar with the area. She stated that she would like to
13
see what it is that Todd and Jody has done in terms of writing.
She stated that she would like to have them added to a pool of
candidates.
Todd Dickinson asked Collins if he had seen anything written by
Todd and Jody. Collins stated that he had seen documents they
had produced when at the University of Georgia on inventories
they had done. Collins stated that Todd and Jody could come to
the next meeting and do a presentation on what has been done.
Todd Dickinson asked what is the timetable for interviewing and
hiring the consultants. Collins stated that the Preservation
Office wants the Commission to start as soon as possible. He
suggested to have a special meeting within the next two weeks to
decide on Todd and Jody or put them in a pool of candidates. The
County cannot do anything until the budget year starts which will
be July 1, 1993 . If the Commission decides on RFP ' s, then they
will have to be sent out and returned. The soonest would
probably be August.
Anderson asked what is the reason for the hurry. Collins
responded that the State Historic Preservation Office is the one
pushing the project. Todd and Jody' s schedule calls for them to
be finished before September.
Allison stated that if Todd and Jody has fundamental writing
skills and they already have the information and photographs,
they should be the ones doing the manuscript. Ward stated that
if they are not qualified to do the manuscript, they should not
be doing what they are doing now. White stated that she would
like to see them enter the pool because she would not feel
comfortable with just giving the job to them.
Pat Dickinson stated that you could get a rookie that =would work
very hard and do a very fine job or you could get a person who
has done a lot of inventories and can do them faster and more
efficiently because they are used to doing them and both would
produce similar products. 3
Todd Dickinson stated that he would like to see Ruth Little and
Kelly Lally added to the pool. White stated that she believes
that the Commission should get the best that can be found.
Collins stated that if there is a pool, Barry Jacobs, who does
National Register nominations, has expressed concerns in the past
that he would be interested in doing the manuscript. He stated
that there are people out there that are interested in doing the
work.
White stated that she would like to hear what the speakers have
to say on how to produce the manuscript.
There was a consensus of the Board to: a. move slowly, and b. use
the pool approach.
Collins recommended to have a special meeting to be held between
now and the end of June. He will have a draft RFP for the
14
Commission to consider which will be sent out to a pool. If the
RFP is accepted, then it could be sent to the Board of
Commissioners at their last meeting in June. The Commissioners
could approve it and it could be sent out allowing 30 days for
return. If the RFP ' s are considered at the Historic Preservation
Commission ' s last meeting in July, then the Board of
Commissioners could consider them at their first meeting in
August. If the consultant is approved by the Board of
Commissioners, then the Historic Preservation Commission can go
ahead with the contract.
White stated that somewhere during this time the Commission
should decide on the kind of publication wanted. Collins
responded that if there is a special meeting held, the State will
be contacted and there will be information about the publication
for the Commission to consider. There will also be RFP
information.
Anderson stated that varieties of manuscripts should be looked at
by the Commission members to get a general idea of what is wanted
for Orange County. Collins stated that the Pitt County Inventory
and the Granville County Inventory are top of the line. Pat
Dickinson stated that she will bring by her copies of inventories
for the Commission to look at.
A special meeting was set for Thursday, June 10, 1993 at 7 : 00
p.m. to take place of the June 23 meeting.
Collins stated that the Commission will look at the RFP ' s and
select a consultant at its July meeting.
c. Call from Lloyd Childers
Collins stated that Lloyd Childers wanted to know the date of the
next Commission meeting. He stated that this is a moot point now
since the meeting date has been changed. She is trying to
determine what is going on with the Commission. She wanted to
bring in the National Park people to sit in on the next meeting,
AGENDA ITEM #5: DECISION ITEMS
a. Proposed Amendments to the Historic Preservation Ordinance
In January, Orange County submitted to the State Historic
Preservation Office its application for Certified Local
Government status. During review of the application, Melinda Wall
of the Survey and Planning Branch examined the County ' s Historic
Preservation Ordinance and the Commission ' s Rules of Procedure.
She recommended a few minor technical changes to insure
compliance with CLG requirements.
Changes to the ordinance will make it clear that the Historic
Preservation Commission (not the Planning and Inspections
Department) is responsible for investigating and preparing a
report when designating historic districts and landmarks. This
responsibility may be delegated by the Commission to the Planning
Staff. Another change, which is optional, would make the

AGENDA ITEM #6: DECISION ITEMS
a: Manuscript Consultant Selection
At its January 19 , 1993 meeting, the Board of Commissioners
authorized the County Manager to apply for $15, 000 from the
Survey and Planning Grant Program administered by the State
Historic Preservation Office. The Planning Director was notified
on March 15, 1993 that the application had been approved, and the
Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to accept the grant on
April 5, 1993 .
The grant amount plus the County' s matching share will total
$30, 000 and be used to conduct an inventory of archaeological
sites in the unincorporated portions of Orange County ($20, 000)
and prepare the manuscript for the countywide inventory
($10, 000) .
The County share would consist of $15 , 000 cash plus a $5, 200 in-
kind contribution. Professional services funds requested as part
of the Planning Department's FY 1993-94 budget would be used to
cover the cash match. The in-kind contribution includes supplies
and equipment expense, and Planning Department staff time on the
project. Personnel and operating expenses will be covered in the
FY 1993-94 Planning Department budget.
The Historic Preservation Commission considered the selection of
a consultant to prepare the historic inventory manuscript at its
May 26, 1993 meeting.
Following a discussion of the options, it was the consensus of
Commission members to use a "pool" approach; e.g. , group of
potential consultants from which one could be selected. The
Commission also asked that someone from Archives & History or
another source be invited to attend a Commission meeting and
discuss the steps involved in preparing an inventory publication.
Following the Commission meeting, the Planning Director spoke
with Claudia Brown and Catherine Bisher of the State Historic
Preservation Office. Ms. Bisher has responded to the questions
and concerns of the Commission. The major points contained in
her correspondence are as follows:
1. The grant awarded to Orange County for the manuscript
preparation was the first of its kind. The grant was
awarded because of Orange County's desire to proceed
immediately to preparation of an inventory publication.
2 . The principal tasks involved in Phase III [manuscript
preparation] include:
a. Expand and edit overview essay from Phases I and II to
incorporate additional historical research, and provide
further analysis of architectural trends and their
relationships to county history and statewide trends;
GI] T If 16
b. Select properties to be represented in publication
•
[Typical surveys include about 500 properties. ] ;
• c. Determine order of presentation of entries [e.g. , by
township or other method] ;
d. Expand and edit entries on properties as needed;
e. Make additional photographs of properties as needed to
correct for lighting problems or other conditions;
f. Order publication size photographs;
g. Locate and obtain prints of selected local documentary
photographs;
h. Obtain any HABS drawings needed;
i. Decide upon/commission any floor plan drawings or farm
complex drawings needed;
j . Assemble illustrations/label as needed;
k. Write captions for illustrations; and
1. Prepare forward, acknowledgements, etc.
During this phase, SHPO staff as well as Historic
Preservation Commission provides intensive assistance in
form of editing and suggestions.
3 . Upon completion of the manuscript and illustrative
materials, Orange County can work directly with a graphic
designer and/or the publisher. The manuscript is prepared
in hard copy on paper and on computer disks, enabling most
publishers to set type from disk.
4 . Following completion of the manuscript, the publication can
be prepared with costs being covered by no-interest loans
from the Federation of N.C. Historical Societies, pre-sale
of books, donations from local patrons and/or
county/municipal governments; and other methods. Counties
normally produce 2 , 000-3 , 000 copies.
5. The SHPO staff strongly recommends that Todd Peck and Jody
Carter be selected to prepare the manuscript for the
following reasons:
a. The principal investigator knows the county and its
resources better than anyone;
b. The principal investigator has a great deal at stake
[professional reputation] to serve as an incentive to
do a good job;
c. Other consultants, including Kelly Lally, Ruth Little,
and Scott Powers, are unavailable to prepare the
17
manuscript;
d. The best survey publications are those prepared by the
principal investigators;
e. The SHPO staff will be involved extensively in
review/editing drafts of the manuscript; and
f. The SHPO staff is very impressed with the quality of
work performed by Todd and Jody.
The Planning Staff recommended that Todd Peck and Jody Carter be
employed as the consultants to prepare the historic inventory
manuscript as part of Phase III of the Historic Inventory.
The Planning Staff further recommended that the consultants be
reimbursed for their services in an amount not to exceed $10,000.
The Commission concurred that the writing sample of Todd and Jody
looked good.
Anderson asked what was HABS drawings. Pat Dickinson responded
that it is the Historic American Building Survey. She stated
that the survey was a project that was done during the depression
where architect's measured drawings of historic buildings were
compiled.
Collins informed the Commission that Barry Jacobs has now
withdrawn from the pool of candidates.
Anderson stated that she had went out in field with Todd and Jody
and was very impressed with their conscientiousness and
intelligence. She also stated that she feels goods with the
report submitted by the consultants. She pointed out that the
Commission cannot go wrong with this selection also because the
SHPO will oversee the project very closely. The Commission
agreed.
Collins reiterated that this is the first project of this type
and the SHPO will be on top of this project because it has a lot
at stake.
Todd Dickinson asked if the scope of work has been presented to
the consultants and if they can do it for $10, 000. Collins
responded that he had talked with Todd Peck and asked how long
would the project take. He stated that Todd's response was that
they could be finished by the end of March and it can be done for
$10, 000. He also stated that the consultants have talked
extensively with Catherine Bisher and Claudia Brown about what is
involved in doing the manuscript.
MOTION: Pat Dickinson moved to employ Jody Carter and Todd Peck
as the consultants to prepare the historic inventory
manuscript as part of Phase III of the Historic
Inventory. Seconded by Anderson.
VOTE: Unanimous.
