Summary

The Historical Commission tabled consideration of a historic-marker application from Rosa Hollowell and Mark Stein after applicants were not present. Commissioner Nancy Nelson moved to table; Melissa Salfield seconded and the motion passed by voice vote.

The Town of Concord Historical Commission voted on Dec. 12 to table a historic-marker application from Rosa Hollowell and Mark Stein until the next commission meeting after staff reported the applicants were not present.

Commissioner Nancy Nelson moved to table the application; Melissa Salfield seconded. The chair called for a voice vote; Lauren Meyer, Nancy Frassella Lee and Melissa Salfield were recorded as voting in favor, and the motion carried.

Why it matters: Historic-marker approvals are formal actions by the commission and typically require applicant attendance or sufficient documentation to permit a substantive evaluation. The commission’s decision pauses consideration until the applicants can present in person or provide supplemental materials.

Next steps: Staff will re-open the application at the next meeting when applicants are available to respond to questions and provide clarifications.
