Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said a neighbor noticed a roof repair contractor sign and asked if a COA had been filed. There are two issues - chimney joints are too thick and back dormer cladding was textured Smartside. Mr. Case said the contractor ground the joints, rather than chiseled out by hand. No Smartside has been approved nor any textured material by this Commission. Staff recommends approval of the roof shingling, but denial of the chimney tuck pointing and shingling. Mr. Case said the mortar joints were like that when he purchased the house and prior work had been done before his house purchase. The joints were wide to begin with. The contractor just ground the loose joints and re-tuck pointed. There was a concrete cap prior. The dormer was shingles and the work needed to be done to be waterproof. The siding is a wood product. Chris Weaver - Rescue my Roof - Deny the tuck pointing and dormer siding 		Pass5:0 Action details Meeting details Video Video

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said no COA was ever applied for for work being completed or in progress. The chimney work is unacceptable due to the thick joints and the flashing Russell Case - owner - the state never mentioned about the need to get a COA. Chris Weaver - the chimney will be re-done; he has gotten COAs in the past. The shingling job is acceptable and the flashing will be re-done. The applicant should do no work on the house until the next hearing in case the chimney needs to be replaced. Mr. Jarosz moved to hold for one month. Seconded by Ms. Peltz.
