248 N Main Street (Historic District)  
Alteration (Shake Siding Replacement)  
Submitted by Thomas Bellish  
a) Staff notes this application was heard at the June 24, 2026 AHBR meeting.  
b) A site visit took place on June 30, 2026.  
c) 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. Staff notes Hardi Board is  
proposed as a replacement material for wood siding, as well as Azek trim  
material. Suggest a wood replacement based on the high visibility of the  
house on a corner lot. A wood replacement would also result in consistent  
materials around the 1840 structure.  
d) Provide spec sheet for proposed siding and trim materials.

6761 Pheasants Ridge  
Addition (Office, Bathroom, & Recreation Room)  
Submitted by Bridget Tipton, Studio Inlay  
a) Staff notes this application was heard at the June 24, 2026 AHBR meeting.  
b) At the June 24, 2026 AHBR meeting, the Board requested additional  
design options be studied to lessen the overall impact of the proposed  
addition in relation to the primary structure. Staff notes the applicant has  
submitted a revised site plan and elevations accurately depicting the  
existing garage structure.  
c) Section IV-4 (b)(3) of the Architectural Design Standards states that the  
front face of the main body must sit forward at least 18” from the front  
face of the wings. Staff notes the existing wing sits forward of the main  
mass; however, the second story addition would increase the degree of  
nonconformity and would not meet the intent of the requirement for the  
wings to be subordinate to the main mass.

Submitted by Tony Lunardi, LDA Builders  
a) Staff notes this application was heard at the June 24, 2026 AHBR meeting.  
b) Staff notes the applicant has submitted revised elevations for the Boards  
consideration depicting a revised front elevation and roofline.  
c) Revise submitted site plan to depict proposed impervious surface  
calculations.  
d) 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. Question the proposed rear gable roofs, as the main  
mass has a hip roof.  
e) Section IV-4 of the Architectural Design Standards state that large  
expanses of blank wall are to be avoided. Fenestration placement should  
be at a maximum of approximately every 12 feet. Suggest revising the rear  
elevation to incorporate additional architectural detail to be applied in the  
proposed rear gables to better meet this requirement.

Fence (4ft Vinyl Fence)  
Submitted by Madison Cope  
a) Section III-1 (f)(3) of the Architectural Design Standards states that fence  
heights and materials shall be compatible with their site location and  
surrounding development. Fences in the front yard shall be more formal in  
design and lower in height when sited close to the street or sidewalk. Staff  
notes the rail fence is proposed along the front property line, however, the  
property is approximately 4 acres and would be similar in design to the  
neighboring fence.
