HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
| HELD IN COMMITTEE
Minutes note: This item was taken up after item #1
Mr. Kennelly is spearheading the exterior lighting through the Concordia neighborhood. The fixtures will be selected based upon the house style and no lamp post fixtures will be used. The guidelines don't really address lawn lights rather than foundation lights They are proposing specific plantings, with HPC staff being opposed to the proposed lemon grass. Staff would like guidelines from the Commission.
Patrick Kennelly -- owner of 3002 W. State St. - the need for lights was identified by residents. They are happy to install the plants that staff has recommended and happy to implement recommendations from staff to preserve the historic nature of the neighborhood.
Ald. Bauman thought this was to improve the quality of street lighting and he wasn't aware flood lights on house facades was being proposed.
Ms. Keating Kahn noted she is aware of sensitive lighting in different areas of the city.
Held so a policy can be created and this can be investigated further.
