[Calclg-l] Mills Act Contracts- Required Ten Year List of Maintenance Actiivities

[Jay Petrek]

1) Performing exterior Improvements that prolong the life of the resource (paint, roofing, caulking, sealing, brick pointing, etc.)
2) Performing street visible improvements (eliminating non-historic features, windows, doors, trim, paint colors, etc.) and replacing with period-accurate elements.  Start with the street visible features and have the owner work around the building if s/he wants to do the improvements over several years) 
3) Removing / prohibiting features that would block views from the street (i.e. fences or hedges).  This has been a problem of late...property owners getting a Mills Act and then planting hedges to screen the structure from the public, or installing fencing that creates a "fortress effect."
4) Performing Interior wiring and /or plumbing

Hi- Currently Ventura County requires a 10 year list of maintenance activities.  We have no adopted standards for what might be included.  The Board is looking at changing this.  For those of you that require such a list, do you have standards for what can or should  be included?

Also, what do you do at the end of the first 10 years?  Must they provide a new list?

Thank you all in advance.......kim
