second purpose for the

&fter attending a Historic
Arnold on September
said it is "absolute-
that this board
this decisior/ in such a
manner."
said there can be only
)Conclusions as to whether
this fence is compatible
with historic nature of his home.
"At the meeting the com-
mission simply stated it was not
compatible," Rasnick stated,
"they had no documentation or
justification for their decision."
He said the decision was
totally subjective and was not
based on any criteria or
research for precedent.
Rasnick noted since they
met at the library, books were
just steps away to show that lat-
tice type fences covered with
vegetation is not only histori-
cally accurate but is in an area
of historic preservation that
needs to be promoted.
He noted during the
Victorian generation, a great
amount of stress existed in life
and they wished to Seek peace
and tranquility in "garden set-
tings."
Rasnick also stated in his let-
ter the Historic Preservation
commission was operating ille-
gally and unconstitutionally.
He said the ciW council is to
appoint five members to the his-
toric commission with one being
a city council member.
"They have not had a city
council member on the board
for years," he stated.
The rules calls for members
to be appointed for three year
terms with a maximum of two
terms or six years..
Rasnick stated that Arnold
is the only person who has ever
confronted the historic com-
mission about a fence, when oth-
ers have built fences without
any input by the historic com-
mission.
Rasnick said the council has
the power to correct the "abuse
of power' directed at John
Arnold.
