5 HOW TO PROVIDE TESTIMONY: HEARING PROCEDURE: Any person wishing to speak either for or against the proposed request may do so in person or by representative at the Public Hearing. Written comments may also be submitted at the Public Hearing. Include case number with the written comments. Prior to the Public Hearing, written comments may be filed with the Salem Planning Division, Community Development Department, 555 Liberty Street SE, Room 305, Salem, Oregon Only those participating at the hearing, in person or by submission of written testimony, have the right to appeal the decision. The hearing will be conducted with the staff presentation first, followed by the applicant s case, neighborhood organization comments, testimony of persons in favor or opposition, and rebuttal by the applicant, if necessary. The applicant has the burden of proof to show that the approval criteria can be satisfied by the facts. Opponents may rebut the applicant s testimony by showing alternative facts or by showing that the evidence submitted does not satisfy the approval criteria. Any participant may request an opportunity to present additional evidence or testimony regarding the application. A ruling will then be made to either continue the Public Hearing to another date or leave the record open to receive additional written testimony. Failure to raise an issue in person or by letter prior to the close of the Public Hearing with sufficient specificity to provide the opportunity to respond to the issue, precludes appeal to the Land Use Board of Appeals (LUBA) on this issue. A similar failure to raise constitutional issues relating to proposed conditions of approval precludes an action for damages in circuit court. Following the close of the Public Hearing a decision will be issued and mailed to the applicant, property owner, affected neighborhood association, anyone who participated in the hearing, either in person or in writing, and anyone who requested to receive notice of the decision.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE (Historical and/or architectural importance, dates events, persons, contexts) The Falk house was reportedly built around 1876 by a member of a Smith family. The proper.ty has ties to the Fabritus Smith family and to Samuel Clarke, both early farme~s in the area. In 1891 Samuel A. Clarke is noted in the Salem City Directory as residing west of Commercial Street, one and onehalf miles south of the Willamette Hotel (in downtown Salem). Samuel Clarke was a noted journalist, author of "Pioneer Days of Oregon History", editor of the Oregonian for a short time, editor of the Oregon Statesman for several years, and editor and owner of a newspaper called the Willamette Farmer for many years when that journal had a larger circulation than any other agricultural paper ever published in Oregon. Clarke is believed to have named his fruit farm in the area "Candalaria".

8 ADDRESS: 210 Candalarl Blvd. DECORATIVE FEATURES: with alternating fleur-de-lis and scalloped.pattern at roof deck, roof of addition on south side, and entry porch roof; open eaves with brackets and corner boards; entry porch with flat roof supported by four posts with brackets; balustrade with simple balusters; dog-leg stairs from porch dividing at landing into two perpendicular stair runs. At some point the orientation of the house was changed; the main entry was put on the north side of the house facing Candaleria Blvd. The present owner is returning the entry porch and entry orientation of the house to its original location on the east side overlooking the Willamette Valley and Cascade Mountains. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: When the area was platted, the name continued to be used as the name of a subdivision and the name of a major street in the area. Clarke is shown as living at this location for only a short time. A later resident was Adam Ohmart, son-in-law of Fabritus Smith, who liv.ed there in Long-time owners Conrad and Nellie Falk are shown living here in 1909; the Falks had a prune orchard on the property and continued to live there through the late 1940s. Mrs. Falk sold the property to Candalaria Investments who later sold it to Klony Smith. Other owners were Freeman and Maria Holmer in the 1950s.
