The following steps were recommended by Ms. Clark:
I recommend the process proceed in steps as follows:
a. Identify the proposed site - this will set limits
on size, purpose, use, etc.

to.move the Depot or create an "historic district"?)

to be included must be identified.

Sanger residents and history buffs to aid in
researching the structures' history.
d. Apply for State markers on the buildings not
already so designated.
