HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
| ADOPTED
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said that scaffolding issues were resolved through staff approval. This is retroactive approval for work on the terracing, steps, downspouts and other exterior work. Staff recommends approval of the work on the gutters and downspouts. The berm was terraced in 2014 which was noted as a result of the scaffolding. The applicant is using the terraced front yard as a victory garden to grow vegetables, which staff doesn't object to, but it does object to the terracing. Neighbor would like the retaining wall along the driveway removed. Staff also recommends approval of repaving with the bluestone. A railing is also required on each set of stairs.
Jeff Leswing - owner - feels that the garden adds more value and times have changed
Dr. Joan Gnadt - neighbor who objects to the foot of the retaining wall which was added and is not part of the original retaining wall.
Staff could approve the railing design.
Ms. Keating Kahn moved, seconded by Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown, for approval of the downspouts and the stairway. There were no objections.
Commission would like to hold this until summer 2018 so the applicant can work with staff and to hold off Dept. of Neighborhood Services action. | Pass | 4:1 |
