THE HISTORIC RESOURCE COUNCIL (HRC) was founded as the Construction Trades Council (CTC) in 1996 as a task force of the Michigan Historic Preservation Network (MHPN). The original CTC was an expansion of the MHPN to include the “bricks and mortar” of preservation—the construction trades.

Through the years, we realized the need to expand this reach to all professionals involved in historic preservation projects, including architects, contractors, accountants, appraisers, attorneys, real estate professionals as well as state and local preservation organizations. Thus, in 2006 the CTC changed its name to indicate this inclusion—the Historic Resource Council (HRC).

The goal of the HRC is to provide a forum for experienced and new preservation professionals to exchange and develop experiences, skills and ideas. The HRC also strives to provide networking opportunities, such as:

• PublishinganddistributingthisannualMemberDirectoryinwhichallHRCmembersarelisted,

• OrganizingtheannualvendorshowcaseheldattheMHPNspringconference,

• CoordinatingtheHRCtrackofsessionsheldannuallyattheMHPNspringconference

• Facilitatingthehrc@mhpn.orgemailaccountfornetworkingamongstHRCmembers,and

• Coordinatingseveralnetworkingeventsacross the state.

The HRC also teams with the MHPN EducationCommitteetoprovidePracticalPreservationWorkshopsthroughout the state. These workshops are designed to teach historic home owners and commercial buildingowners: thebenefitsofhistoricpreservation, restorationtechniques and methods, and invaluable ways to savetimeandmoney.WorkshoppresentersaretypicallyHRCmembers who volunteer their time and efforts to sharetheir knowledge with others.

THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR’S S TANDARDS

for the Treatment of Historic Properties & Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Properties

PRESERVATION IS DEFINED AS the act or process of applying measures necessary to sustain the existing form, integrity, and materials of an historic property. Work, including preliminary measures to protect and stabilize the property, generally focuses upon the ongoing maintenance and repair of historic materials and features rather than extensive replacement and new construction. New exterior additions are not within the scope of this treatment; however, the limited and sensitive upgrading of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems and other code-required work to make properties functional is appropriate within a preservation project.

1. Apropertywillbeusedasitwashistorically,orbegivenanewuse that maximizes the retention of distinctive materials, features, spaces,andspatialrelationships.Whereatreatmentandusehavenotbeenidentified,apropertywillbeprotectedand,ifnecessary,stabilizeduntiladditionalworkmaybeundertaken.

2. Thehistoriccharacterofapropertywillberetainedandpreserved.The replacement of intact or repairable historic materials oralteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterizeapropertywillbeavoided.

3. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of itstime,place,anduse.Workneededtostabilize,consolidate,andconserveexistinghistoricmaterialsandfeatureswillbephysicallyandvisuallycompatible, identifiableuponclose inspection,andproperly documented for future research.

4. Changestoapropertythathaveacquiredhistoricsignificanceintheirownrightwillberetainedandpreserved.

5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and constructiontechniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a propertywillbepreserved.

6. Theexistingconditionofhistoricfeatureswillbeevaluatedto determine the appropriate level of intervention needed. Wheretheseverityofdeteriorationrequiresrepairorlimitedreplacement of a distinctive feature, the new material will match the old in composition, design, color, and texture.

7. Chemicalorphysicaltreatments,ifappropriate,willbeundertakenusingthegentlestmeanspossible.Treatmentsthatcausedamagetohistoricmaterialswillnotbeused.

8. Archeologicalresourceswillbeprotectedandpreservedinplace.Ifsuchresourcesmustbedisturbed,mitigation measureswillbeundertaken.

PRESERVATION AS A TREATMENT. When the property’s distinctive materials, features, and spaces areessentially intact and thus convey the historic significance withoutextensiverepairorreplacement;whendepictionataparticularperiodof time is not appropriate; andwhen a continuing or new use doesnot require additions or extensive alterations, Preservation may beconsidered as a treatment.

S t a n d a r d s f o r P r e s e r v a t i o n

RECONSTRUCTION IS DEFINED AS the act or process of depicting, by means of new construction, the form, fea-tures, and detailing of a non-surviving site, landscape, building, structure, or object for the purpose of replicating its appearance at a specific period of time and in its historic location.

1. Reconstructionwillbeusedtodepictvanishedornon-survivingportions of a property when documentary and physical evidence isavailabletopermitaccuratereconstructionwithminimalcon-jecture,andsuchreconstructionisessentialtothepublicunder-standing of the property.

2.

3. Reconstruction will include measures to preserve any remaining historic materials, features, and spatial relationships.

4. Reconstruction will be based on the accurate duplication ofhistoric features and elements substantiated by documentaryor physical evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different features from other historic properties.A reconstructed property will re-create the appearance of thenon-surviving historic property inmaterials, design, color, andtexture.

5. Areconstructionwillbeclearlyidentifiedasacontemporaryre-creation.

6. Designs thatwere never executed historicallywill not be con-structed.

REHABILITATION IS DEFINED AS the act or process of making possible a compatible use for a property through repair, alterations, and additions while preserving those portions or features which convey its historical, cultural, or architectural values. 1. Apropertywillbeusedasitwashistoricallyorbegivenanew

use that requires minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships.

2. The historic character of a property will be retained andpreserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a propertywillbeavoided.

3. Eachpropertywillberecognizedasaphysicalrecordofitstime,place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from otherhistoricproperties,willnotbeundertaken.

4. Changestoapropertythathaveacquiredhistoricsignificanceintheirownrightwillberetainedandpreserved.

5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and constructiontechniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a propertywillbepreserved.

6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather thanreplaced. Where the severity of deterioration requiresreplacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match theold indesign, color, texture,and,wherepossible,materials.Replacement of missing features will be substantiated bydocumentary and physical evidence.

7. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will beundertakenusing thegentlestmeanspossible.Treatments thatcausedamagetohistoricmaterialswillnotbeused.

8. Archeologicalresourceswillbeprotectedandpreservedinplace.Ifsuchresourcesmustbedisturbed,mitigationmeasureswillbeundertaken.

9. Newadditions,exterioralterations,orrelatednewconstructionwill not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work will bedifferentiated from theold andwillbe compatiblewith thehistoric materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment.

10. Newadditionsandadjacentorrelatednewconstructionwillbeundertaken in a such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environmentwouldbeunimpaired.

REHABILITATION AS A TREATMENT. Whenrepairandreplacementofdeterioratedfeaturesarenecessary;when alterations or additions to the property are planned for a new or continueduse;andwhenitsdepictionataparticularperiodoftimeisnotappropriate,Rehabilitationmaybeconsideredasatreatment.

RESTORATION IS DEFINED AS the act or process of accurately depicting the form, features, and character of a property as it appeared at a particular period of time by means of the removal of features from other periods in its history and reconstruction of missing features from the restoration period. The limited and sensitive upgrading of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems and other code-required work to make properties functional is appropriate within a restoration project. 1. Apropertywillbeusedasitwashistoricallyorbegivenanew

2. Materials and features from the restoration period will beretained and preserved. The removal of materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize the periodwillnotbeundertaken.

3. Eachpropertywillbe recognizedas aphysical recordof its time,place,anduse.Workneededtostabilize,consolidateandconservematerialsandfeaturesfromtherestorationperiodwillbephysicallyand visually compatible, identifiable upon close inspection, andproperly documented for future research.

6. Deterioratedfeaturesfromtherestorationperiodwillberepairedratherthanreplaced.Wheretheseverityofdeteriorationrequiresreplacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match theoldindesign,color,texture,and,wherepossible,materials.

7. Replacement of missing features from the restoration periodwillbesubstantiatedbydocumentaryandphysicalevidence.Afalse senseofhistorywillnotbecreatedbyaddingconjecturalfeatures,featuresfromotherproperties,orbycombiningfeaturesthat never existed together historically.

8. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will beundertakenusing thegentlestmeanspossible.Treatments thatcausedamagetohistoricmaterialswillnotbeused.

9. Archeological resources affected by a projectwill be protectedand preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed,mitigationmeasureswillbeundertaken.

10. Designsthatwereneverexecutedhistoricallywillnotbeconstructed.

RESTORATION AS A TREATMENT. When the property’s design, architectural, or historical significanceduring a particular period of time outweighs the potential loss of extantmaterials,features,spaces,andfinishesthatcharacterizeotherhistoricalperiods;whenthereissubstantialphysicalanddocumentaryevidence for the work; and when contemporary alterations andadditions are not planned, Restoration may be considered as atreatment. Prior to undertaking work, a particular period of time,i.e., the restoration period, should be selected and justified, and adocumentation plan for Restoration developed.
