750 W. Streetsboro St
Commercial Addition (Vestibule entrance and second story addition)
Submitted by Julie Ziga, Sol Harris Day Architecture
a) Staff notes the proposed vestibule entrance expansion and second floor
addition would support the church’s existing children’s ministry program.
b) Staff notes the proposed additions would utilize compatible materials.
c) The existing building is identified as a “large mass type” per Section IV-5
of the Architectural Design Standards. “Large mass types” are described
as follows: “This type has a complex massing with several large masses
attached to each other. It does not have a dominant (forward) main body,
but may have one or more central masses to which other masses are
attached. Most of the building is two stories tall. It may have more than
one entrance, and several subordinate wings or projections.”
d) Section IV-5(h)(4) states “Wings may also be extended or made two-story.
In this case, the original wing and its extension shall be considered one
wing and shall be reviewed as such under these Standards.”
e) Section Iv-5 states “Wings may occur on any of the masses and be the
same size or smaller in height than the central masses.” Staff notes the
proposed second story addition would be smaller in height than the central
masses; however, would be taller than the adjacent masses.
f) Question if the proposed aluminum storefront vestibule entrance is
compatible with the existing building.
g) Question if the proposed stone panels would be inset to match existing.

Addition (Attached Garage)
Submitted by Bridget Tipton
a) Question proposed forward garage wing expansion. Section IV-4 (h)(1) of
the Architectural Design Standards states that wings must be attached at
the rear or side of the building and may not extend forward of the main
body. However, staff notes that the existing garage is forward of the main
mass.
b) Staff notes a previous approval was granted by the Architectural and
Historic Board of Review at the June 28, 2023 meeting for a similar
proposal to expand the existing forward garage mass. The previously
approved plans consisted of a reduced scope and smaller addition than
what is currently proposed. The previously approved plans are attached
for the Boards review.
