Discussion The Four Mounds Estate Historic District, owned by the City of Dubuque, is managed by the Four Mounds Foundation as an interpretive site and an inn and conference center. The grounds and trails are open to the public year- round. The property is a City Landmark Site. The barn restoration project will focus on the exterior elements of the barn that have been lost or damaged over time, restoring the barn to its 1930's period of significance. The exterior restoration will let the Foundation proceed with interpretation planning for the barn; a separate grant is being sought for this planning work. The HRDP grant requires the property owner's signature giving permission for projects initiated by an organization other than the owner. The City Manager's signature on the ownership form of the application fulfills this requirement for the barn restoration project. Budget Impact The estimated project cost is $31,145.24. The HRDP grant request is for $19,858.00. The Four Mounds Foundation will provide the local cash match of $6,517.24. The Foundation will provide an in -kind match of $4,770.00. No City funds are needed. Requested Action The requested action is for the City Council to approve the enclosed resolution authorizing the City Manager to sign the ownership form in support of the HRDP grant application by Four Mounds Foundation.

A. Phelps Wyman was hired as their landscape architect, and developed thoughtfully laid out winding lanes, vistas and stone features including retaining walls, walkways, birdbaths, a sundial, stone gates and walls, rough cut curbing and an earthen root cellar. More unusual is the fact that he also laid out the farm buildings. The result was 54 acres overlooking the Msslsslppi River, naturally landscaped and populated with pleasant buildings, harmonious design, and interesting site features. The Burdens' vision was realized in an organized gentleman's farm, believed to be the only one In /owe in an Intact state today, per Ralph Christian, of SHPO. The site has two listings on the National Register of Historic Places: as a historic district, and for the namesake Native American burial mounds, dating to the middle Woodland era. The site Is a Silos 8 Smokestacks National Heritage Area partner and a Dubuque Landmark Site. A Phase I archeological survey of the cultured grounds revealed few tangible artifacts, but indicated a history of heavy farming prior to 20th century development end a very cleanly kept site by the Burdens. The document is used a reference tool when undertaking any projects. The late 1930s was adopted as a time significant for the stte as both families occupied the two main residences and the majority of buildings were already built/modified for practical use. By partnering with Iowa National Heritage Foundation and the estate's neighbors to the north and south, we have buffered the historic estate by increasing the protected land from 54 acres to over 120 through conservation easements. This protection creates a quiet https:/ kwow. towagrants. gov/ getAppllcationPrintPreview .do ?documentPk =1332883045875 3/9 4/30/12 IowaGranls context for the gentleman's farm, providing a positive visitor experience similar to that of the early 20th century. Recent completion of the Landscape Heritage Assessment (by Jeffrey L. Bruce & Assoclates) provides a guide to restoring and maintaining the cultured grounds to the late 1930s period. The site was built during a movement of gentleman farms, when wealthy men worked in cities and retreated at night to their country estates. Located four miles from the city center, the automobile made it possible to have the fans while maintaining a professional career. The farm was Idyllic, In an age where the industrialization and modernization of agriculture and cities was an affront to the sensibilities of many. Eggs, dairy, flowers, herbs, vegetables, fruits and meats were produced for the people who lived and worked on the estate, but never sold for profit. The fans campus Includes the ham, chauffeur & gardener houses, lower garage, hog shed, chicken coop, Ice house, and root cellar. The barn always served as part barnpart garage, Ideaity situated next to the chauffeurs house. 3500 chnnen onus Provide an ovwMew of the activities you will complete: The bam restoration project will focus on the exterior elements of the bam that have been lost or damaged over time, restoring the period of significance to the late 1930s. The exterior restoration prepares the organization to move ahead with interpretation planning for the buliding. The project Is broken down into 4 main areas: 1) Professional assistance: we will engage architect Jeff Morton& preservationist John Gronen to use the existing as- bullts and develop plans, hardware & materials specification for the restoration of missing elements, Including cattle ramps, cream room screen door, loading door and hayloft beam, as well as restoration /repair recommendations for the historic overhead & hayloft doors. Tads used for this step: building Investigation, historic photo archive access (we have over 800 documents on a searchable digital archive), access to Four Mounds' building manuals (specifying paint color & historic materials used at the bam), using existing artifacts that have been removed and stored, looking to other existing elements for clues (like typical hardware), building element research, and visiting with existing and former staff who have working knowledge. 2) Masonry: historic cattle ramps have settled and been modified over 100 years. After planning to lay out size and structure of ramps, work includes salvaging all historic limestone, measuring and documenting the remaining historic concrete caps, and analyzing mortar and documenting original protected mortar joints. Recreation Includes rebuilding ramps with clean stone and soli, and relaying mortared walls with same pointing and laying methods as anginal. The finished surface will be soil and grass, with re-laid concrete caps along edges. The two ramps are tapered, approx. 35' long. The late 20th century slab between the ramps will be removed and replaced with properly drained soil and grass. 3) Carpentry. Mssing elements include cream room screen door and loading dock door. Damaged/ altered elements Include hayloft door and overhead door (dating to c. 193240), and part of the extruding hayloft beam, track & pulley system. Using professional drawings, engage carpenter to recreate the missing elements and repair and replace those damaged or altered elements. (Our histonc woodshop is fitted with all tools necessary for recreating these in a historically accurate manner and the items will be finished In the restoration shop in the barn.) All hardware and track for the hayloft beam (including the portion that protruded from the building) appears to Intact, In storage in the bam, except for an exterior pulley eye. This equipment allows us to exactly size the hayloft beam that needs partial recreation (54" from face of building). 4) Archive: archive drawings, photographs, records, and as- builts of project in Four Mounds archive, with hard copies and electronic copies. 3000 characters or How will the proposed actions assist the historical reeeureer There are three main campuses on the estate: the Grey House campus, White House campus and farm campus. h all, there are 17 buildings at Four Mounds. The bam is the cornerstone for the farm campus. Steps have been taken to preserve the bam Including exterior lead paint removal, restoration of the windows and cupolas, and replacement of the cedar shingle roof. This project seeks to recreate lost historic elements and restore the existing damaged historic elements. Architect Jeff Marton and consultant John Gronen of Gronen Restoration will guide the investigation and planning process to recreate lost elements. Over time, the loading door and the cream room screen door were removed from the building and lost. The hayloft beam, hayloft door, hayloft tracking, cattle ramps, and historic overhead door have all sustained damage or removal. Through this project they will be restored to original working condition. NI the features restored in this project are key elements that would have served Important roles in the day - to-day operation of the barn on the gentleman s farm. The barn has always been a building used to maintain the estate Situated between the chauffeur's and gardeners houses, U was convenient to the men responsible for running Four Mounds, It served as housing (in early days), a seMce area, and fueling station for the vehicles and machines that were used In the Burdens' daily life, whether for the family or on the farm. It also housed the more traditional functions of a bam: cattle and horse stalls, cream room, tack room and hayloft. The bam Is still the heart of the farm campus and the site today, housing a restoration shop in the garage that allows us to perform the necessary restoration work on doors, windows, hardware and other elements. We also use the space as a teaching laboratory for restoration with youth and young adults in a variety of building and vehicle restoration programs. This project will complete exterior restoration. Next phases for the buildings programming Include 1)restoring Interior, 2)acquiring and restoring missing equipment (cream separator, 1930s fueling pump, tack equipment, hayloft forks, etc.) for interior exhibits, 3)interpreUve slgnage, & 4)development of educational tours/programs for a variety of ages. Four Mounds has applied to Silos & Smokestacks National Heritage Area for a planning grant to help us undertake this next phase and Is working with a donor on a major gift (expected in 2013) to help us with the Interpretation of the gentleman's farm, the barn, and other farm buildings at Four Mounds. 3000 ehraners tutees How will the project have an Impact on the local community?' Four Mounds Foundation exists as a friends group to the site that is owned by the City of Dubuque. However, we receive no funding from the city. We are entirely responsible for all fundraising, management and liability for the estate. This unique reiabonshlp means that the community resource Is made available at no cost to the taxpayers. As a superbly Intact gentleman's farm, we actively buffer the site from development (partnering with lowe Natural Hedtage Foundation) and are open 365 days a year to the public (grounds & trails). Many buildings (woodshop. bam, White House and Grey House and outbuildings) are open during business hours. Our active youth programs make our site available for recreational and educational purposes to approximately 500 youth annually at no cost to over 90% of participants. Operation of our Inn & Conference Center (Grey House, Cabin and now the White House) means that the public can Intimately experience Four Mounds similar to the way it was Intended. We offer facllitles /seMCes to nonprofits at a reduced rate, often at no cost. hffps'I Nevw. lowegrant s. gov/ getApplicafonPdntPrevlew.do7documentPk= 1332803045875 4/9 4/30/12 IowaGranls Through conservation easements with neighboring lands we actively buffer natural views of the Mssissippi River and the site's serenity. Four Mounds is one of only a few places in Dubuque where the public has a panoramic view of the Mssissippl. In 2011, we completed the White House restoration and opened It to the public. In 2012, we move to the bam restoration and the next phase includes interpretive & educational planning around this historic resource Partnering with Silos & Smokestacks, we have designed and installed four exterior Interprefrve signs about the gentleman's farm, various wayfindtng & Identification signs, and are working on the next phase of interpreting (he Grey & White Houses. Alter that Is interpretation of the farm campus, speclflcalty the bam, including cream & tack rooms, garage, cattle & horse stalls, and hayloft. As an SSNHApartner, our site presents a unique opportunity to tell the story of a gentleman's farm within the larger context of the modernization and industrialization of American agriculture. The bam restoration and Interpretation will allow us to better host groups on Interpretive lours of the site, gentleman's farm and outline the importance of the bam In the day to day operations of the farm. Exterior & later interior restoration will allow visitors to see the bam as It was built when the gentleman's fame was in operation. In 2012, we entered a partnership with a donor fora major giro to help us Interpret the agricultural history of Four Mounds with a focus on the barn. In preparation, Four Mounds is applying to Silos & Smokestacks for a planning grant, to help us develop an Interpretive plan, interior exhibit design concepts, and an educational plan. The aforementioned donation Is expected by mid -2013 and will allow us to implement the scope Identified through the planning process. 3m0 characters er ieoa Scope of Work Project Element Provide a brief description of action steps for this project element.

Begin by completing this sentence: The (name of your organization) seeks an SSNHA Interpretive Planning Grant to . (Maximum of 1400 characters) Four Mounds Foundation seeks an SSNHA Interpretive Planning Grant to help us develop an educational & interpretive plan, with exhibit concept designs, for the Four Mounds historic barn. Project focus lies at the center of the farm campus, the barn, but will incorporate this building in the larger farm campus & as it relates to the historic gentleman's farm. Funds will hire a consultant to research and develop a plan for interpretation (tours, signs, materials), educational plans, and exhibit concept designs. It will outline potential exhibits & locations, exhibit acquisition needs, and potential lesson plans /tours. Additionally, a graphic design consultant will be hired near the end of this process to develop preliminary signage and a layout for exhibits. Foundation staff will assist consultants with research, artifact location, photography & development of interior restoration plans. Final presentation of all materials will go to the board of directors and our partner donor at an open community meeting in 2013. Plans will incorporate the unique use of the barn which was always also a garage, aptly adjacent to the historic chauffeur's house. Historic focus includes garage (open area, gas pump, equipment), tack room, cattle stanchions, cream room, hayloft and pulley system. Plans also include barn's relationship to Burdens' and staff homes, ice house, road, chicken house, lower garage, hog shed, root cellar, pastures and fields. 0 2. Explain how the project fulfills a demonstrated area of need. (Maximum of 1400 characters) Four Mounds is Iowa's only intact gentleman's farm. The barn the 2nd of 17 buildings at Four Mounds and has played a critical role in 20th century development of the site. Situated between the chauffeur's and gardener's houses, it was convenient to the men who were responsible for running Four Mounds. It served as housing (in early days), a service area, and fueling station for the vehicles and machines that were used in the Burdens' daily life, whether for the family or on the farm. It also housed the more traditional functions of a barn: cattle, horses, cream room, tack room and hayloft. The barn is still the heart of the farm campus and the site today, housing a restoration shop in the garage that allows us to perform the necessary restoration work on doors, windows, hardware and other elements. We also use the space as a teaching laboratory for restoration with youth and young adults in a variety of building and vehicle restoration programs. This project helps us include the barn in a positive visitor experience. Other projects taking place concurrently and following this project include: - restoration of the barn exterior in 2012 -13 (replacing the hayloft beam, loading door, cream room, screen door and repairing the historic overhead door, cattle ramps, and hayloft door). - restoration of the barn interior in 2013 -14 (scope yet to be determined, partially dependent on exhibit and interpretation recommendations from consultant in this project). 4. Interpretive Themes Check all the themes and sub - categories that will be explored, preserved and /or interpreted through the proposed project.

(Maximum of 900 characters) As Iowa's only intact gentleman's farm, we tell the alternate story of farming. The farm buildings and site were laid out by a Chicago landscape architect A. Phelps Wyman, with pleasing buildings, winding lanes & walkways. In the face of the industrialization & modernization of agriculture, Four Mounds was idyllic and serene. Son Bill Burden raised Hampshire hogs & was published for his writings of ideal farming conditions for hogs, for best health & higher yields. The farm itself wasn't focused on high production or profits, but meant to be a microcosm of what farming should or could be. The products never left the site, but this sustainable approach meant that the people that lived and worked here grew and produced pork, chicken, eggs and dairy. The farm was filled with alfalfa & meadow for animal production; orchards and berry patches; and vegetable, fruit and flower- cutting gardens. task. you 4. Visitor Experience Need How will the proposed project provide for positive visitor experience consistent with the SSNHA Interpretation Plan? (Maximum of 1400 characters) With Silos' help, we installed 4 exterior interpretive signs about the gentleman's farm, various wayfinding & identification signs, and are working on the next phase of interpreting the Grey & White Houses. Next is farm campus: the barn, including cream & tack rooms, garage, cattle & horse stalls, and hayloft. Barn restoration & interpretation allows us to better host groups on interpretive tours of the gentleman's farm, & outline the importance of the barn in historical day -to -day operations. We have the opportunity to enrich the experience of visitors: volunteer groups, day- campers, ropes course participants, conference center guests, & youth involved in programming in the barn's restoration shop. We host over 18,000 visitors annually and directly serve 500 youth in programs. We are currently working on a project to restore the barn's exterior. In 2012, we entered a partnership with a donor for a major gift to help us interpret the agricultural history of Four Mounds with a focus on the barn. We expect this gift in 2013, to implement the design plans developed as a result of this SSNHA grant project and restore the interior of the barn and its missing elements. This is Phase III of a 5 phase project to restore and interpret the barn and farm: I. Gentleman's farm interpretation, II. Exterior restoration, III. Planning, IV. Planning implementation, V. Barn environs 5. Timeline Describe The exit the timeline of the project.
