53 <br /> Alexander Hogan Plantation Site, although <br /> there may be archeological significance at <br /> the site, does not meet criteria for listing <br /> in the National Register. Seconded by <br /> Allison. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. <br /> T. Dickinson then address the audience stating that the <br /> Commission is concerned with this site as well as other sites <br /> within the County, whether they are above ground or below ground. <br /> The Commission is not concerned, as historic preservationists, <br /> with cemeteries and the remains of family members because that is <br /> dealt with in another form by other people. The Commission is <br /> caring human beings and are very concerned with what happens to <br /> cemeteries, but that is not a historic problem for this Board. <br /> If there is an impact by any County or private development, that <br /> cemetery will have to be dealt with in a respectful way and you <br /> will be consulted on how that is dealt with and you will have <br /> your say on how that is dealt with at that time. But that is not <br /> his Commission's purview This Commission's purview at this <br /> meeting was merely to pass on the National Register Nomination. <br /> The Commission will work towards mitigation at this site for you <br /> as your preservation commissioners, but have not endorsed this <br /> nomination. <br /> 12 <br />
