Accessory Structure (Garage Renovation and Detached Garage)  
Submitted by Stephen Cochran  
a) Section IV-(f)(2) of the Architectural Design Standards states that details  
in a wing must be consistently applied throughout the sides of that wing.  
Suggest removal of proposed shutters on great room south elevation to  
meet this requirement.  
b) Section IV-(f)(3) of the Architectural Design Standards states that details  
in the wings should be the same or subordinate to those in the main body.  
For example, a wing should not have an elaborate cornice if the main body  
has a simple one. Question the introduction of gable returns on the garage  
west side elevation.  
c) Section III-1 (d)(5) of the Architectural Design Standards state that all  
facades (including the rear) over twelve (12) feet long shall have at least  
one window or door opening. Fenestration placement on the accessory  
structure shall be proportional to the house. Incorporate additional  
fenestration on garage east side elevation to meet this requirement.  
d) Question if proposed door on garage west side elevation would be  
centered under new entryway.  
e) Submit product spec sheets of all proposed exterior materials. Staff notes  
the elevations state the proposed materials will match the existing siding.  
The AHBR will determine appropriateness based on age of home and  
existing materials.

Alteration (Door replacement)  
Submitted by Glynn Norgan  
a) The Secretary of Interior Standards state that deteriorated historic features  
shall be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration  
requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature shall match  
the old in design, color, texture, and other visual qualities and, where  
possible, materials. Replacement of missing features shall be substantiated  
by documentary, physical, or pictorial evidence. Verify the existing door  
material.  
b) Staff notes a sliding fiberglass door is proposed. Additionally, staff notes  
that the proposed sliding door includes simulated divided lites with  
internal grids.

Demolition (Single-Family Dwelling)  
Submitted by Tony Lunardi, LDA Builders.  
a) Staff notes the proposed scope of work is to demo the existing house,  
detached garage, and shed.  
b) Staff notes the house and detached garage were built in 1953.  
c) As the property is outside the historic district and is not an individual  
historic landmark, the AHBR may only make the following  
recommendation upon review: The Architectural and Historic Board of  
Review finds the structures at 1731 Norton Road [(does) (does not)] have  
historic or architectural significance. Further, the Board finds that the  
application for a permit to demolish these structures will not voluntarily  
consent to the retention of these buildings.

22 Essex Circle  
Addition (Kitchen, Master Bedroom, Great Room, & Screened Porch)  
Submitted by Nate Bailey, Hara Architects  
a) Staff notes the proposal received informal review by the AHBR at the  
February 11, 2026, meeting.  
b) Section IV-4(c) of the Architectural Design Standards state that 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. Staff notes a significantly large flat roof is proposed,  
along with hip roofs, as the existing house has clipped gable roofs. Staff  
understands the Board determined the rear gables as compatible; however,  
the proposed flat roof is a conflict with the requirement.

258 N. Main Street (Historic District) (Informal)  
Addition (Bedroom, Bathroom, Office, and 3-Car Garage)  
Submitted by Nate Bailey, Hara Architects  
a) The National Park Service Preservation Brief #14 states “a new addition  
should be smaller than the historic building - it should be subordinate in  
both size and design to the historic building. A new addition should be  
simple and unobtrusive in design, and should be distinguished from the  
historic building.” Staff notes the proposed footprint is larger than the  
main historic mass and that the addition should be subordinate in size  
compared to the existing building. Reduce the overall footprint of the  
proposed addition to be smaller than the historic main mass to meet this  
requirement. Additionally, to be compatible but not compete in design  
suggest a simpler design by removing the gable ends but repeating the  
window design of the historic building.  
b) The National Park Service Preservation Brief #14 states a new addition  
should bear a relationship to the proportions and massing of the historic  
building. Reduce the overall footprint to meet this requirement.  
c) Revise elevations to depict a consistent foundational height/water table  
around the new addition.
