HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
| ADOPTED
Minutes note: Ms. Carlen Hatala said the work has already been completed without a certificate. The owner installed fencing around the front parking lot. One concern is the fence height, which is illegal under the zoning code. Ms. Hatala would like a ruling on the fence design as well as the lighting on the piers. Ald. Bauman is fine with the fence design and height, although he sees the issue with the lighting on the fence which he leaves to the Commission. He actually sees the fence as an improvement.
Joe Balestrieri - signatory of the trust - the building had 280 building violations in 1981. He was told the fence shouldn't exceed 6 feet and he didn't realize he needed a COA as not eligible for historic tax credits. The lights are for security for the kids leaving the events. They matched the existing lights.
Atty. Brian Randall
Ald. Bauman moved, seconded by Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown, to approve the fence proper. There were no objectons.
Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown moved to deny the lighting and return with new proposed lighting, seconded by Ms. Keating Kahn. There were no objections. | Pass | 5:0 |
