The City of Salisbury seeks a professional consultant to complete an architectural survey update in the 1975 Salisbury National Register Historic District (NRHD) and its three boundary increase areas (1988, 1989, and 2000). The consultant will also perform a windshield survey of a fifteenblock area to the southwest, west, and northwest of the NRHD and assess the potential for Boundary Increase areas or standalone districts in this area. The City of Salisbury has been awarded a 2022 federal Historic Preservation Fund grant for Certified Local Governments from the National Park Service, administered through the State Historic Preservation Office (HPO) of the North Carolina Office of Archives and History. Funds will be used to complete an architectural survey update of the existing Salisbury National Register Historic District (1975) and its three increase areas (1988, 1989, and 2000). The NRHD and its increase areas contain approximately 400 resources. Many of these resources have yet to be assigned a survey site number and shall receive one as part of this project. Existing database records contain scant information and shall be fully populated as part of the project. The approximately fifteen-block area outside the NRHD is bounded by S. Craige and Fisher Streets to the northwest, Boyden High School and Johnson Street to the west and southwest, and the existing district. (See attached map.) The consultant will conduct a windshield survey of this area and identify any potential boundary increase areas or standalone districts in the survey report. Survey files will not be updated or created in this area. A starting date of Wednesday, February 1, 2023 is desired. The project shall be completed by September 2, 2023. The total budget is $42,400 funded by $17,500 from the City of Salisbury and $24,900 from a federal Certified Local Government Grant from the National Park Service, administered through the HPO. All associated expenses for travel, etc. will be borne by the contractor. The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time
