Historic Resource Inventory Evaluation III. Identification of Goal 5 Resources IV. ESEE Analysis V. Conclusion II. HISTORIC RESOURCE INVENTORY EVALUATION A. 1985 Historic Resource Inventory The initial City of Newberg Historic Resource Inventory was conducted in 1984-85 and encompassed historic properties within the city limits of Newberg and the Urban Growth Boundary. The inventory involved three major phases. Phase I, a windshield survey, consisted of identifying properties of architectural significance within the study area. Concurrently, a literature search was conducted to document the development patterns of the town as well as identifying significant events or individuals important to the history of Newberg. Historical research on each identified resource was then conducted as Phase II of the inventory process. Phase III consisted of a ranked evaluation of the surveyed resources. Properties which ranked Primary, Secondary or Contributing were included in the inventory. A final report was then prepared which included a historical overview of the city's development, major historical themes, building types and styles, methodology, the evaluation process, findings and preservation recommendations. The project was completed in August of 1985. In 1990, the City of Newberg updated the inventory of historic resources in accordance with LCDC Goal 5 requirements.

Most EJ incoming new students soon hear that the nation's 31 st president lived in Newberg as a boy.

Hoover was taken to the home of his uncle and aunt. Dr. Henry and Laura Minthorn. The Minthorns' own son recently had died, and they had requested Hoover be sent from Iowa to live with them.
