3/1/20210 HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION ADOPTED

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the proposal is to replace decking on two porches and path. The lannon stone paving is in poor condition as is the porch tile - the only controversy is the porch decking and paving materials to be used. It is not known what the original porch decking was, but Mr. Askin could not locate any use of bluestone prior to 1930 and most Tudor houses used a flagstone material. He found in 1941 and 1942 bluestone first being used in landscaping. Staff doesn't recommend bluestone for the porch decking, but is neutral on it for the paving and neutral on porcelain for the porch decking. Tom Florshein - owner - the public can barely see the porch floorings and they are deteriorating. There are numerous houses in the area with bluestone.
