Sign (Building)

Submitted by Marianne Minogue

a) Section V-4(a) of the Architectural Desing Standards state “The lettering

within a sign panel should not exceed approximately 70 % of the height

and length of the sign panel” Reduce the size of the lettering within the

sign panel to provide additional space to meet this requirement.

b) Section V-5(c) of the Architectural Design Standards state “Signs should

be fabricated on and of materials that are of permanent quality, good

durability and are complimentary to the building of which they become a

part.” Question the use of a metal panel is appropriate as this location is

within the Historic District.

c) Question if the sign is accurately depicted on the drawing.

Addition (Enclosure of existing porch)

Submitted by Chris Lachman, CSL Consulting

a) Staff notes the applicant is proposing to enclose with windows the existing

open porch on the N. Oviatt side of the house.

b) The Preservation Briefs speaks on historic porches and states “If a porch

enclosure is being considered, its significance and location - as well as the

nature of the planned enclosure - play key roles in whether it can be done

without changing the porch’s and building’s historic character. While it is

almost never appropriate to enclose a front porch on a historic building to

create interior space, enclosing a less prominent porch on a less visible

elevation could have less impact.” Staff notes this porch is on an addition

that was put on in the 90’s; however, question the design and if it is

appropriate for a visible porch in the Historic District.

c) Submit specification cut sheets on the windows, doors, and siding detail.

d) Question the aesthetics of the porch when the windows are open.

e) Staff suggests the AHBR take this meeting to understand the project, ask

questions, set up a site visit and request assistance from the Historic

Consultant.

7487 Darrow Road

Addition (Enclosed Porch)

Submitted by Robert Duber

a) Section IV-4(h)(1) of the Architectural Design Standards state “An

additional wing may be added to any mass of the building. This wing must

be attached at the rear or side of the building and may not extend forward

of the main body.” Staff notes this wing would be projecting from the front

façade facing Middleton Road. Revise plans to depict the proposal on the

side or rear of the house.

b) Section IV-4(h)(3) of the Architectural Design Standards state “Additions

should be designed to be compatible with the main structure by

incorporating materials and a foundation to match.” Staff notes the

proposed materials would not be compatible with the main house.

c) Section IV-4(c) of the Architectural Design Standards state “All roofs in

all the wings must be of the same shape as the main body, but they may

have a different pitch or orientation. Roofs shall not intersect a wall so as

to cause a valley.” The proposal has a shed roof while the existing has a

gable roof.

Addition & Alteration

Submitted by Kline Home Exteriors

a) Section IV-4(g) of the Architectural Design Standards states “Roofs on

projections should match the roof material of the building (unless both

roofs are flat) and to the extent possible, shall be same kind of roof.

Natural finish metals such as copper, terne coated steel, or lead may be

substituted for any roofing material.” And “Materials used on an open

porch or screen room need not be the same as other materials in the

structure, but should be related to materials used in the details of the

structure.” Staff notes the proposal depicts a metal roof while the main

house is shingled.

b) Question how the proposed screens on the rear porch will tie into the

ground

c) Confirm all window openings will remain and no new opening are

proposed.

d) Question the proposed exposed foundation and if it is consistently applied

on all elevations.
