Inl~nd Available in Date: 1984 4 Street Address: Site No: Architectl Builder: unknown/Edward Cottrell Building Materials: brick Building Type/Style: Victorian Eclectic/Period Cottage Description of physical appearance & significant architectural features: (Include additions, alterations, ancillary structures, and landscaping if applicable) The Farmington Tithing Office is a one story brick building with a pyramid roof, a scored concrete foundation, and a projecting gabled pavilion on the facade. It was designed from one of at least three standard plans whicn were created for tithing offices around 1905, two of which have been identified. The design of the Farmington Tithing Office has been identified as Type No.3, and is almost identical to the design of the Manti, Sandy, Richmond and Panguitch tithing offices. It is also very similar to the Hyrum Tithing Office. The facade is symmetrically arranged with a gabled pavilion centered between pairs of one over one double hung sash windows. The pavilion has a round arch opening above which is a semi-circular vent. Pilasters are attacned to the corners of the pavilion. Two doors open off the pavilion, each set at an angle into the wall under the pavilion. The arrangement of openings on the three sides of the building is irregular, but is ~ery similar to that of other tithing offices of this type. Decorative elements include a string course above the windows and brick dentils under the cornice. Rock-faced brick highlights the relieving arches of the windows and the ,relieving arch of the large arch of the pavilion. A small domed cupola tops the building. (See Continuation Sheet) 5 Statement of Historical Significance: - Construction Date:l907-09 Built in 1907-09, the Farmington Tithing Office is historically significant as one of 32 well preserved tithing buildings in Utah that were part of the successful "in-kind" tithing system of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Sai nts (LOS or !4ormon church) between the 1850s and about 1910. Tithing lots, which usually included an office and several auxiliary structures, were facilities for collecting, storing, and distributing the farm products that were donated as tithing by church members in the cash-poor agricultural communities throughout the state. Tithing offices were a vital part of almost every Mormon community, serving as local centers of trade, welfare assistance, and economic activity. They were also important as the basi c uni ts of the church-wi de ti thi ng network that was centered in Salt Lake City. On May 9, 1907 the bishop of the Farmington Ward, James H. Robinson, received approval from the Presiding Bishopric in Salt Lake City to erect "a large tithing office at Farmington,in which accommodations will be provided for the Stake Presidency, High Council, etc." l Cost of the building was estimated to be $3,000. Plans for the building were sent from church headquarters, and the construction was performed primarily by Edward A. Cottrell, a local bui1der. 2 The d-e sign of the Farmington Tithing Office is one of at least three standard tithing office plans that were developed at church headquarters around 1905 and sent out to a number of wards in the state that requested to have a new tithing office built. Those plans were perhaps the first examples of what eventually became a policy with the church - developing standard building plans at church headquarters rather than having each ward generate its own. Other tithing offices in the state that have virtually the sa~e design as the Farmington Tithing Office are those in Manti, Richmond, Hyrum, Sandy, and Panguitch. (See Continuation Sheet) Description (Continued) A large, rear brick addition was built onto the Farmington Tithing Office, probably in the 1960s. Although it is almost equal in size to the original building, it was built to complement the original section. Tne pyramid roof was extended to become a hip roof, the brick stringcourse and line of dentils below the cornice were also extended to wrap around the entire building, and the brick of the new section was carefully matched with that of the original section. Tne addition, which served as the city fire station, has two large fire truck bays on the south side. The tithing office maintains its original integrity despite that large addition because the addition is compatible with the original in terms of design and materials, and because three of the four original exterior walls remain virtually unaltered. History (Continued) A standard plan was also used in the construction of a hay shed on the Farmington tithing lot. In June of 1907 Bishop Robinson received approval to construct a $300 hay shed to replace the one that had been destroyed in the wind the previous fall. Regarding the hay shed, the Presiding Bishopric stated, "We would prefer that you follow closely the plan enclosed and that you will see that the hay shed is well braced and placed at a convenient location on the tithing 10t."3 That building no longer remains standing, so it is unknown what the plan type was and whether it was the same as that used for granaries and hay sheds found on tithing lots in other towns. Around 1948 the Farmington Tithing Office was sold to Farmington City and became the city hall. Soon after that, part of the building was made into a public library. A large, well-matched fire station was built on the rear of the building probably in the 1950s. The building currently houses a local history museum.

Main Street Farmington, Davis County Farmington City Corporation Owner: 130 N. Main Farmington, Utah 84025 Statement of Significance Built in 1907-09, the Farmington Tithing Office is historically significant as one of 32 well preserved tithing buildings in Utah that were part of the successful "in-kind" tithing system of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS or Mormon church) between the l850s and about 1910. Tithing lots, which usually included an office and several auxiliary structures, were facilities for collecting, storing, and distributing the farm products that were donated as tithing by church members in the cash-poor agricultural communities throughout the state. Tithing offices were a vital part of almost every Mormon community, serving as local centers of trade, welfare assistance, and economic activity. They were also important as the basic units of the church-wide tithing network that was centered in Salt Lake City. History On May 9, 1907 the bishop of the Farmington Ward, James H. Robinson, received approval from the Presiding Bishopric in Salt Lake City to erect "a large tithing office at Farmington, in which accommodations will be provided for the Stake Presidency, High Council, etc."l Cost of the building was estimated to be $3,000~ Plans for the building were sent from church headquarters, and the construction was performed primarily by Edward A. Cottrell, a local builder .2 The design of the Farmington Tithing Office is one of at least three standard tithing office plans that were developed at church headquarters around 1905 and sent out to a number of wards in the state that requested to have a new tithing office built. Those plans were perhaps the first examples of what eventually became a policy with the church - developing standard building plans at church headquarters rather than having each ward generate its own. Other tithing offices in the state that have virtually the same design as the Farmington Tithing Office are those in Manti, Richmond, Hyrum, Sandy, and Panguitch. A standard plan was also used in the construction of a hay shed on the Farmington tithing lot. In June of 1907 Bishop Robinson received approval to construct a $300 hay shed to replace the one that had been destroyed in the wind the previous fall. Regarding the hay shed, the Presiding Bishopric stated, "We would prefer that you follow closely the plan enclosed and that you will see that the hay shed is well braced and placed at a convenient location on the tithing lot. "3 That building no longer remains standing, so it is unknown what the plan type was and whether it was the same as that used for granaries and hay sheds found on tithing lots in other towns. Around 1948 the Farmington Tithing Office was sold to Farmington City and became the city hall. Soon after that, part of the building was made into a public library. A large, well-matched fire station was built on the rear of the building probably in the 1960s. The building currently houses a local history museum. Notes lpresiding Bishopric Letterbooks, to Bishop James H~ Robinson, Farmington Ward, Davis Stake, May 9, 1907. 2George Quincy Knowlton, A Brief History of -Farmington,Utah (Kaysville, Utah: Inland Printing, 1965), p. 28. 3Presiding Bishopric ,Letterbooks,to Bishop James H. Robinson, Farmington Ward, Davis Stake, June 26, 1907. Description The Farmington Tithing Office is a one story brick building with a pyramid roof, a scored concrete foundation, and a projecting gabled pavilion on the facade~ It was designed from one of at ,least three standard plans which were created for tithing offices around 1905, two of which have been identified. The design of the Farmington Tithing Office has been identified as Type No.3, and is almost identical to the design of the Manti, Sandy, Richmond and Panguitch tithing offices. It is also very similar to the Hyrum Tithing Office. The facade is symmetrically arranged with a gabled pavilion centered between pairs of one over one double hung sash windows~ The pavilion has a round arch opening above which is a semi-circular vent. Pilasters are attached to the corners of the pavilion. Two doors open off the pavilion, each set at an angle into the wall under the pavilion. The arrangement of openings on the three sides of the building is irregular, but is very similar to that of other tithing offices of this type. Decorative elements include a string course above the windows and brick dentils under the cornice. Rock-faced brick highlights the relieving arches of the windows and the relieving arch of the large arch of the pavilion. A small domed cupola tops the building. A large, rear brick addition was built onto the Farmington Tithing Office, probably in the 1960s. Although it is almost equal in size to the original building, it was built to complement the original section. The pyramid roof was extended to become a hip roof, the brick stringcourse and line of dentils below the cornice were also extended to wrap around the entire building, and the brick of the new section was carefully matched with that of the original section. The addition, which served as the city fire station, has two large fire truck bays on the south side. The tithing office maintains its original integrity despite that large addition because the addition is compatible with the original in terms of design and materials, and because three of the four original exterior walls remain virtually unaltered.

Listing in the National Register results in the following for historic properties: --Consideration in planning for Federal, federally licensed, and federally assisted projects.

This can be combined with an l8-year cost recovery period for the adjusted basis of t.he building. Certified structures with certified rehabilitations receive additional tax savings because mmers are allowed to reduce the basis by only one half the amount of the credit rather than by the full amount as required for non-certified structures.

Listing in the National Register provides recognition and assi~ts in preserving our Nation's heritage. Enclosed is a copy of the criteria under which properties are evaluated. Listing in the National Register results in the following for historic properties: --Consideration in planning for Federal, federally licensed, and federally assisted projects. Sectio~ 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 requires that ~edF.:ra1 ~..~encies allow the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation an opportunity to comment on projects affecting historic properties listed in the National Register. For further information please refer to 36 L"FR 800. --Eligibility for Federal tax provisions. If a property is listed in the National Register, certain Federal tax provisions may apply. The Tax Reform Act of 1984, which revised the historic preservation tax incentives authorized by Congress in the Tax Reform Act of 1976, the Revenue Act of 1978, the Tax Treatment Extensiorl Act of 1980, and the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, provides for a 25 percent investment tax credit for rehabilitating historic commercial, industrial and rental residential buildings instead of a 15 ~r 20 percent credit available for rehabilitation of non-historic buildings more than thirty years old. This can be combined with an l8-year cost recovery period for the adjusted basis of the building. Certified structures with certified rehabilitations rec~ive a:1ditional tax savings because owners are allowed to reduce the basis by only one half the amount of the credit rather than by the full amount as required for non-certified structures. The Tax Treatment Extension Act of 1980 provides Federal tax deductions for charitable contributions for conservation purposes of partial interests in historically importan~ land areas or structures.
