HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
| ADOPTED
Minutes note: Mr. Jakubovich gave an overview on the staff report. The proposal is for a sunroom at the top of a rear addition. The rear addition was not original to the house, but it was added early in the history of the house. The sunroom would be a minimal structure with a simple shed roof, large windows, and constructed of metal and glass. The materials are not a radical departure from what would have been constructed on this home. The option of having bulkheads open was considered, but the owners preferred a closed bulkhead. The sunroom would not be visible from the street, is not something that would disrupt the rear elevation of the home, fits in quite well, and observes the guidelines for the construction of additions in historic districts. Staff recommends approval.
Chris Egner, Design Build Remodel LLC, appeared and showed the material of the sunroom.
Ald. Bauman gave supportive comments. He has known the homeowners for many years who have taken great care of the fine house. The sunroom would be a modest change to the house having no significant impact. It will provide greater utility for the owners.
Ald. Bauman moved approval, seconded Mr. Hoeschen, of a Certificate of Appropriateness for the construction of a new sunroom on top of the rear addition at 3112 W. McKinley Boulevard in the Cold Spring Park Historic District. There were no objections. | Pass | 6:0 |
