APPLICATION QUESTIONS
1. What experiences/training/qualifications do you have for this particular board/commission/committee? !
I am a current historic preservation graduate student at the University of Oregon. My area of study is focused on
Pacific Northwest heritage, industrial and maritime history and cultural landscapes and interpretation. As a graduate
student I am well practiced in conducting independent scholarly research, historical interpretation and evaluation, and
am confident in my ability to quickly learn and interpret historic and technical data. Having completed one year of
study, I am highly knowledgeable in all aspects of historic preservation including:
-Trained in HABS/HAER hand drafting and ArchiCAD documentation
-Proficient in historic survey and inventory methodology and worked with the City of Eugene in surveying the
West University neighborhood as a possible historic district
-Experienced in the National Register of Historic Places Nomination process
-Educated in historic preservation law and policy, National Historic Preservation Act, Section 106, local
ordinances and municipal code, preservation plans and SHPO work !!!

Attachment 1, Page 6 of 10
3. Briefly describe your involvement in relevant community groups and activities. !
-I am the editor-in-chief of the Associated Students for Historic Preservation's annual journal, ASHP. This is the
annual publication for the University of Oregon’s historic preservation graduate program. I independently select and
implement article submissions and manage all formatting, design and layout as well as printing, cost and distribution.
-In the summer of 2013 I participated in the Pacific Northwest Preservation Field School held at Ebey’s Landing
National Historical Reserve, WA. I helped restore the historic Comstock barn. Our team repaired original windows,
interior joists, exterior door and restored the roof with new cedar shakes. !
4. What community topics concern you that relate to this board / commission / committee? Why do you
want to become a member? !
Springfield has a unique history as a logging and mill town, one that is emblematic of the Pacific Northwest and has
evolved independently of Eugene. While the city is growing and in the beginning stages of gentrification, I am
concerned historic resources will be compromised in the wake of strip malls and suburbs. As a preservationist focused
on industrial history, I am interested in community development through adaptive reuse of historic structures such as
Main Street development and preservation of the historic industrial fabric of the city. As a resident of the Washburne
Historic District I am excited at working for the historic maintenance of this great place and the rich history it
possesses. I want to become a member of the committee both for the preservation of Springfield and to learn
professional practices of historic preservation. I view this as a great opportunity to implement my graduate studies
within my own place of residence, a place I care deeply about. !
5. Are you available to attend meetings on the dates listed for this committee?
Yes. !
SUPPLEMENTAL COMMISSION QUESTIONS !
1. If you do not live within the Springfield city limits, do you live within the Eugene/Springfield
Metropolitan Area General Plan boundaries? !
I live within Springfield city limits. !
2. Please refer to the attached list of professional qualifications. Which category best describes
you, if applicable? (Not having the qualifications associated with a field related to historic
preservation will not necessarily disqualify you from consideration.) !
I am best qualified as a Historic Preservationist. I will be receiving my masters of science in historic preservation from
the University of Oregon in June, 2015. I have a bachelors of arts in art history and a minor in anthropology from
Western Washington University. !
3. Why do you think historic preservation is important for a city like Springfield? !
Like many Northwest towns based on resource extraction, Springfield is battling for its prosperity and character in the
midst of economic decline and transitioning trades. Cities and towns such as Springfield are intrinsic in telling the
complete story of the Pacific Northwest and are in the greatest danger of extinction. I believe the city of Springfield is
in the process of community development and is fostering a stronger sense of place and community. This in turn
provides a healthier and prosperous city. Such endeavors are evident within the Washburne Historic District, Friday
Market, Dorris Ranch and Main Street. Historic preservation is important for the city in order to retain regional and
historic character and promote adaptive reuse. Fortunately, the majority of Springfield’s historic buildings are still
intact and reusing these resources are incremental for economic prosperity while providing authenticity of place.
Preserving Springfield’s historic locales promotes economic development, tourism and reinforces its sense of place and
Attachment 1, Page 7 of 10
community pride. Furthermore, reusing and protecting historic places aids in public education, cultural heritage and
encourages community stewardship toward maintaining Springfield’s cultural resources.
4. What do you think the purpose of the Historic Commission is in Springfield? !
The purpose of the Historic Commission in Springfield is to protect the city’s historic resources, promote community
stewardship and awareness of its cultural resources and act as an overseer of proposed changes within historic locales.
The Commission provides necessary guidance to all preservation taking place around Springfield and is charged with
defending and safeguarding Springfield’s historic built environment for the education and enjoyment of its citizens. !
5. How would you address a situation in which a citizen’s development or restoration plans are in
conflict with the city’s historic preservation policies and regulations? !
I would address this situation by making a compromise with the citizen while maintaining the city’s historic
regulations and ordinance. This can be achieved by explaining why the policies and regulations are in place and what
the guiding purpose is. I’d work with the citizen in conveying why historic preservation matters, and how they can
achieve their proposal with the least amount of historic degradation as possible. !
6. How can the Historic Commission foster citizen awareness of historic preservation? !
The Historic Commission can foster citizen awareness by expanding programs already in place, such as Main Street
enhancement and historic parks. By promoting these resources, the commission can educate the public on
preservation measures taking place within the city and the immense opportunities preservation can provide.
Awareness can be fostered through adaptive reuse and targeting emerging and active audiences such as historic park or
pub crawls, community work parties and fundraisers. As a student, I can bring a young, progressive and passionate
approach to preservation, and work my hardest to promote preservation as an attainable and prosperous goal for the
citizens of Springfield. !
7. Interested applicants are encouraged to attend a Springfield Historic Commission meeting. Did
you attend a meeting and if so, what were your impressions of the meeting? !
I have not yet attended a meeting but plan to attend one on September 23rd. !
