5/8/20170 HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION ADOPTED

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the applicant wants to build a patio area, install glass block windows and install a fence so the landscaping and glass block windows are not visible from the public view. The applicant is not present. The owner has had several break-ins and security bars have not been sufficient to prevent break-ins. He would also like an egress window; staff's primary concern is for the above-grade windows in the garage, which are at eye level. Staff recommends approval with conditions detailed in the report and would request the glass block garage windows be denied unless HPC note it's for a secondary structure not visible to the public. There are no front basement windows on this building. Ald. Bauman moved, seconded by Ms. Keating Kahn, to approve the house and related work and deny the glass block windows in the garage.
