6/3/2024	0	HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION	Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said they are few photos, most of which are behind foliage. It is a complete redevelopment of the property with two additions, one to the north and one to the east. HPC only has authority over the building and its immediate footprint, but DCD has design review over the rest of the parcel as the property is city-owned. The south side will have false windows with closed shutters as that property line is very close to another building. Staff recommends approval with conditions in the Staff Report. The preservation tax credits have been dropped from the project. The addition will be a different color. Thomas Stachowiak - architect - Stack Design Group Grant, with conditions.
3/11/2024	0	HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION	ADOPTED; Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the building will be repaired and restored and portions of the original cupola will be brought back. The non-original front canopy will be removed. The proposal includes a new 14,000 square foot restaurant and hall and the public spaces will be restored. A patio will be added to the front. A secondary entrance will add accessibility and is designed to mimic the main entrance. Mr. Askin said the review is strictly limited to the existing and proposed buildings, but they have no oversight over the landscaping or surrounding buildings. Staff has some concerns detailed in the staff report, but is fine with the deck patio, although it would be better if it were structurally independent. The rear of the site is in a flood plain, so knowing grading details is important to the Dept. of City Development. Staff grants conceptual approval, but would like the applicant to return once it is further along. Rakesh Rehan - owner Tom Stachowiak - architect - he would adopt all of Mr. Askin's recommendations Mr. Jarosz believes that the state historic preservation office will need a clear differentiation between the existing building and the new addition. Staff is willing to defer to the tax credit people on the addition. Grant conceptual approval.	Pass	6:0
