Project Plan : Management, mainten ance, and operations
of the Historic Jack House and Gardens
Four Decades of Jack House Stewardship by the City and Volunteers
The Historic Jack House and Gardens (collectively referred to as “The Jack House”) were deeded to
the City of San Luis Obispo on March 10, 1975. For over four decades, the City has managed,
maintained, and operated the Jack House consistent with the general terms of the Grant Deed. As is
typical with historic homes and gardens, the Jack House has had dedicated volunteers who have
helped with many aspects of the public’s enjoyment of the Jack House. V olunteer efforts have
included a City Advisory Body, the Jack House Committee, as well as docents who have educated
visitors during countless tours. Staff and volunteers have focused on the preservation of the historic
home in a way that enhances and celebrates its place in the historical development of the City San
Luis Obispo for the greatest possible public use and enjoyment
Increasing Complexities Associated with Historic Home Stewardship
Over time, as frequently occurs with historic homes, volunteers and staff have come and gone and
with them so too has gone knowledge about why an activity was done in a certain way. In the case of
the Jack House, like so many historic homes, the “original” volunteers and staff knew the “why” as
well as the how and when the why evolved and changed . In the 40 plus years since the City received
the Jack House – it has gotten older; historic preservation guidelines have become more complex and
applicable to not just the Jack House but its contents. As a result, the management, maintenance,
and operational responsibilities associated with the Jack House have gotten more complicated and
require definition by Council to guide the future of the Jack House.
A Variety of Topics Needing Policies for the Future Management, Maintenance, and Operations
In May 2017, the Jack House Committee received a staff presentation clarifying the roles and responsibilities
of the City Council, Jack House Committee, Jack House volunteers, and staff with respect to the Jack House.
At a Workshop on July 19, 2017, the Jack House Committee discussed topic areas that could benefit from
future policy development. Those areas were:
1.The Jack House Era to be used.
2.The Jack House maintenance standards for the house and garden.
3.The treatment of the interior collections.
4.The nature and extent of visitations to the Jack House.
5.How to best preserve historic knowledge and information about the Jack House.
Last Updated: 9/27/17
PURPOSE
The purpose of this Project Plan is to identify policies for the ongoing management, maintenance, and
operations of the Historic Jack House and Gardens. The plan will include prioritized actions to effectively use
limited financial resources. The public will be engaged in the development of these policies which will
ultimately be considered by Council.
2
6.The potential for future funding mechanisms for maintenance and operations of the
Jack House.
The Jack House Committee workshop was the first step towards development of future policies and
processes to help guide the management, maintenance, and operations of the historic home. The
Jack House Committee will act as the project’s advisory body.
PROJECT STRATEGY AND SCOPE
The objective of this project is to identify the best way to manage, maintain , and operate the Jack
House. To accomplish this objective the following will occur :
(1) the management, maintenance, and operational practices for historic homes will be researched.
(2) the community’s priorities for the Jack House within the context of all parks and recreational
needs will be assessed
(3) Policies that guide the management, maintenance and operations of the Jack House will be
developed
Research of Historic Home Management, Maintenance and Operations
A thorough review of models for historic homes’ management, maintenance, and operational
practices will serve as the foundation for this project. City staff will identify operational best
management practices and industry standards for historic house manage ment that focus on
preservation of Jack Family history. A survey of existing city policies, plans, and Jack House documents
will occur. To document the Jack House history and to capture institutional knowledge (in both oral
and written form), individuals with historical information about the Jack House will be identified to
serve as interviewers and interviewees. This information will be used as foundational blocks in the
development of the policies for the management, maintenance, and operations of the Jack House.
Community Priorities for the Jack House
Input about the Community’s priorities for the Jack House will be solicited and evaluated within the
context of all parks and recreation. Engagement activities may include open houses, workshops,
interviews and surveys to ensure participation and input from a diverse cross-section of the
population; from youth to seniors.
Development of Policies
for the Management, Maintenance, and Operations of the Jack House
Following the research and prioritization phases of this project staff will make recommendations
about the management, maintenance and operations of the Jack House for the future. Draft policies
to carry out the same will be developed. All policies prior to adoption will follow the normal advisory
body review process and will ultimately need Council approval prior to implementation.

SUBJECT: REVIEW AND PROVIDE FEEDBACK ON THE DRAFT HISTORIC
JACK HOUSE NATIONAL REGISTER PLAQUE
Prepared by: Melissa C. Mudgett, Recreation Manager
Dave Setterlund, Recreation Supervisor
RECOMMENDATION
Provide Feedback and Recommend Plaque Description on the National Register Plaque for
the Historic Jack House residence and gardens.
DISCUSSION
Background
In March 1992, the Historic Jack House was added to the United States Department of Interior
National Park Services’ National Register of Historic Places. This city-owned property is
considered significant due its 2-story late Victorian era, wood-framed Italianate architecture.
In effort to memorialize this historic resource and share with visitors information about the
Jack Family’s contributions and connections to the historical development of San Luis
Obispo, a National Register Plaque is recommended for placement at the Jack House. The
Jack House Committee has been asked to provide feedback to staff on the proposed narrative
for the plaque (Attachment 1).
CONCURRENCE
On June 26, 2017, the Cultural Heritage Committee (CHC) reviewed and provided staff
feedback of the preliminary plaque design for the historic Jack House. At its meeting, the
CHC endorsed the proposed Jack House plaque design and provided Community
Development staff with further recommendations for streamlining the review and plaque
installation options for the city’s most important and rare historic resources, including other
master-listed properties and those properties that carry the National Register Designation.
NEXT STEPS
Based on the feedback and direction received, Parks and Recreation staff will continue to
research plaque options. Staff will return to the Jack House Committee at a future meeting
with recommendations for project costs; including plaque design, installation and estimated
project timeline.

HISTORIC JACK HOUSE AND GARDEN
Robert Edgar (R.E.) and Nellie Hollister Jack
R.E. Jack was a central figure in San Luis Obispo during the years 1870s-1894. As a prominent banker, land
developer and wool grower, R.E. Jack established himself as a major benefactor in the growth and development
of San Luis Obispo. The drought of the 1860s had encouraged diversification and the transportation of
agricultural products out of the county was difficult without the expansion of the railroad. Today, R.E. Jack is
recognized as a major force in San Luis Obispo’s economic development, through his efforts in organizing and
promoting the expansion of the railroad through the Central Coast.
R. E. Jack married Nellie Hollister on November 20, 1870. Nellie was a life-long learner. She was fluent in
both Spanish and French, a collector of books still found in the library collection today, and an avid gardener -
particularly fond of trees and exotic plants . The Jack Family gardens are the earliest surviving designed
landscape in San Luis Obispo.
Construction of the house was completed in 1882 and is an example of Late Victorian Italianate Architecture.
The residence and carriage house are two of the City’s five oldest wooden buildings. The house was
continuously occupied by the family until 1975 when the Jack Family heirs donated the residence, its collection
and garden to the City of San Luis Obispo.
