ANNUAL REPORT 2008 A NEW FOUNDATION FOR FUTURE GROWTH Riverside Avondale Preservation Since its founding in 1974, RAP has been an advocate for active preservation of our neighborhood’s historical assets. In countless meetings with residents, developers and city officials, RAP has worked to ensure that Riverside Avondale’s unique qualities are maintained. We’re proud of how we’ve been able to shape change in the district, balancing preservation with progress, and helping to bring new vibrancy to areas of the district that had previously been in decline.

Responding to Community Concerns ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Much of RAP’s day-to-day work is dedicated to responding to community concerns. We work hard to listen to all sides and to formulate an effective response.  For example, when the absentee owner of a 93-year-old building sought a variance that would have allowed him to install vinyl siding on the structure, RAP rallied stakeholders to fight a change that would have undermined historic preservation ordinances. When homeowners along Post and College streets complained of rising traffic problems, we surveyed area residents and analyzed police report data in an effort to find a resolution. When the owner of a local landmark building wanted to modernize historic signage, we worked to resolve resident concerns about the appropriateness of this change. And we’ve worked with residents to help them voice reservations about proposed High Density zoning changes that could negatively impact our unique village atmosphere.

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Buckland House Renewal Although preservation has always been RAP’s mission, because the organization has lived hand to mouth for so long, our own historic headquarters has been neglected.  In 2008, we began working toward our goal of making Buckland House a showcase for historic preservation.
[object Object],Building a New Foundation  Finally, and perhaps most significantly even in this year of major change, RAP has completed a Strategic Planning process that will help both the organization and its membership chart the path to a better, stronger, and more vibrant district. Much of 2009 will be dedicated to building this new foundation.
