HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
| ADOPTED
Minutes note: The proposal is for a metal gazebo with additional plantings. There have been two complaints about the installation of this gazebo as no COA was obtained for the completed work. The landscaping is within guidelines. The gazebo does require a building permit, probably because of its size.
Staff recommends denial of the gazebo based upon complaints, but recommends approval of the landscaping. Beth Meyers - owner - the roof line of the gazebo mirrors the roof line of the coach house and it's built within the line of the plane of the house so it doesn't encroach onto the driveway line. It might be slightly visible from the right of way and shields them from a neighbor's security light that is on all night
Ms. Hatala said the complaints they received were related to the materials and whether needed permits had been taken out.
Barbara Elsner - 2420 N. Terrace Ave. - she can see the cheap shingles from her dining room and she feels it's a big negative for her property.
Ald. Bauman moves for approval of the gazebo and landscaping, seconded by Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown. There were no objections wtih Ms. Keating Kahn abstaining.
