Feeling overwhelmed by the ream <strong>of</strong> paper handed out to you at<br />
the <strong>National</strong> <strong>Register</strong> workshop or the packet <strong>of</strong> information you downloaded to<br />
guide you in preparing a nomination for the <strong>National</strong> <strong>Register</strong> <strong>of</strong> Historic Places<br />
Maybe you have a tax credit project that is on the fast track and you have neither<br />
the time nor the inclination to moonlight as a historian or<br />
architectural historian and prepare a nomination. Perhaps you are feeling<br />
frustrated after receiving staff comments and changes for the umpteenth time on<br />
the nomination you have promised to prepare for your church. If you fall into one<br />
<strong>of</strong> these categories you might want to consider hiring a consultant to help you<br />
complete the nomination process quickly and successfully.<br />
The list on the reverse side <strong>of</strong> this page contains the names <strong>of</strong> qualified historic preservation<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>essionals who have successfully completed <strong>National</strong> <strong>Register</strong> nominations in <strong>Iowa</strong><br />
during the past three years and whose nominations require only one review by the <strong>State</strong><br />
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) staff before being scheduled for review by the <strong>State</strong><br />
Nominations Review Committee (SNRC). They are not the only qualified historic<br />
preservation pr<strong>of</strong>essionals working in <strong>Iowa</strong>, but are the only ones preparing and<br />
presenting nominations to the SNRC on a regular and consistent basis. For a complete list<br />
<strong>of</strong> historic preservation pr<strong>of</strong>essionals working in <strong>Iowa</strong>, please go to www.iowahistory.org,<br />
click on Review and Compliance Program, and then click on 106 Consultant <strong>List</strong>.<br />
Please remember, however, that as pr<strong>of</strong>essionals, these consultants charge for their services. What they<br />
charge and what you are willing to pay is a private matter between you and them. From what we have<br />
heard, the going rate for preparing an individual nomination can range from as little<br />
as $1,000 to as much as $5,000 depending on the complexity <strong>of</strong> the property, the<br />
availability <strong>of</strong> research materials and published local histories, the amount <strong>of</strong> time<br />
required for completing research and writing, and travel time and distance to visit<br />
the property and make a presentation to the state review committee. The cost for<br />
district nominations usually runs from $5,000 to $20,000 on up, depending on the<br />
size <strong>of</strong> the district and the number <strong>of</strong> properties, as well as the factors noted above for individual<br />
properties. If cost is a problem, most consultants appear to be willing to negotiate downward on costs<br />
when applicants agree to conduct some basic research and provide photographs, etc. The more work<br />
you are able and willing to do, the less the consultant will charge. There are also grants that can be<br />
applied for to hire a consultant to prepare a <strong>National</strong> <strong>Register</strong> nomination.<br />
