1957 Norton Rd (Informal)

New House (Single-Family Dwelling)

Submitted by Matthew Neff

a) Staff notes this application was reviewed informally at the January 28,

2026, AHBR meeting

b) The applicant has submitted revised elevations for the Boards

consideration that depict a proposed gable roof and a more prominent

front entryway to be more compatible with the surrounding neighborhood.

c) The Land Development Code requires the front setback to be within the

average of the two adjacent properties and not differ by more than ten

percent from the front yard setbacks of the two properties immediately

adjacent to the subject property, unless approved by the AHBR. Staff notes

the proposed house would have a front setback of 190 ft. The property to

the west has a front yard setback of approximately 300 ft. The property to

the east has a front yard setback of 840 ft; however, this is a flag lot with

only 60 ft of frontage. The next home to the east has a setback of 35 ft.

d) 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”. Staff notes that a

flat roof is proposed for the garage wing while the main house has a gable

roof.

e) Section III-1(g)(8) of the Architectural Design Standards state “large

expanses of blank wall are to be avoided”. Fenestration placement should

be at a minimum of approximately every 12 ft.” Incorporate additional

fenestration placement on front and rear elevations to meet this

requirement.

and windows on the public faces of a building should be arranged so that

they are regulated by a system of (invisible) parallel and perpendicular

lines. Revise elevations to better meet this requirement.

2200 Middleton Rd (Informal)

Addition (Living Room, Gym, Bathroom, & Garage)

Submitted by Quinn Miller, Peninsula Architects

a) Staff notes the following conflict with the Land Development Code:

Revise site plan to comply with Land Development

Code accessory structure placement standards. Staff notes the

proposed detached accessory structure connected to the main

mass by an open breezeway is located within the side yard.

b) Staff notes the proposed additions meet all applicable Land Development

Code Standards.

c) Section IV-4 (a) of the Architectural Design Standards identifies the

Two-Story Wing Type to have a main body and subordinate wings. The

main body is two stories tall and centrally located in the structure and the

front door is located in the main body. There are one or two wings which

are smaller in size. Wings may be one or two stories. In most cases, there

are no significant recesses in the masses of the main body or wings, but

there can be projections from these masses.

d) Section IV-4 (b) of the Architectural Design Standards states that the main

body must be the largest visible mass. Revise elevations and overall design

to better meet this requirement.

e) Section IV-4 (b) 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 proposed garage wing sits forward of the main

mass.

f) Section IV-4 (h)(1) of the Architectural Design Standards states that 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 a substantial conflict with this requirements

as the elevations depict a garage wing considerably forward of the main

body. Revise elevations to meet this requirement.

g) Section III-1(g)(3) of the Architectural Design Standards states exposed

foundations and tie courses shall be of a consistent material on all

elevations. Revise elevations to depict a more consistently applied exposed

foundation on all elevations.

h) Section IV-4 (e)(4) of the Architectural Design Standards states that the

building shall have a typical window used for most windows. Revise
