HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
| ADOPTED
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said some windows were replaced with vinyl windows and little work has been done since 2009 when there was a bank foreclosure. Roof repairs, mechanicals need full replacement and extensive work needs to be done. Staff recommends mothballing for one year due to the scope of needed work. There are leaded casement windows at the corners. The applicant did provide a proposed work schedule. There would be the standard 6-month intervals for review.
The owner (Sam Stairs) said that plans are moving ahead and with city approvals and permits work can begin. Financing is through his own funds. He didn't realize vinyl windows weren't allowed - the Dept. of Neighborhood Services told him he needed to install windows due to security concerns.
Mr. Jarosz moved for 6 months to mothball and review in 3 months to check on progress. | Pass | 4:0 |
