| 0 | 3. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for the construction of a new house at 2409 N. Terrace Avenue, in the North Point North Historic District, for Anna Goldman.
Minutes note: This is the house that was heard last month and modifications were made based upon that meeting, per Mr. Stern. They did bring the house back off the north property line a foot and 4" more and they also pushed the house back 1/4 of a foot. They are adding a 6' foot fence along the property line along the north side and along the back.
They are adding drainage titles along the side and reducing the elevation to match the property along the north. There will now be one window well rather than the former four that were proposed. There will be cedar trim on the open porch in the rear. Landscaping will be a mix of plantings around the house of bushes and trees. Staff does have some concerns having all the landscaping to the north of the property, but the material is fine.
Staff recommends with conditions detailed in the Staff Report, which are pretty standard conditions.
Shawn Pernell - Grayslake, IL - architect - they carefully considered all the input from the last meeting and tried to accommodate all the requests that seemed reasonable.
Sheila Reynolds - 2411 N. Terrace Ave. - trusts HPC to take appropriate action
Dewey Caton - 2635 N. Terrace Ave. - is appreciative of HPC and its staff, asks who she would contact if there is mud on the sidewalk as a result of this construction
Angela Kadria - 2625 N. Wahl Ave. - opposed as there is no final plan and believes it's not in keeping with a historic district.
Robert Chang - 2411 N. Terrace Ave. - there is still a question of the northern property line and where it actually is.
There will be an accurate rendering that shows the front elevation.
JP Mitchell - property owner - two surveyors have concluded that the homeowner's fence to the north is on their property and part of their driveway also encroaches onto their property. The owners of 2411 have a certified survey that shows their fence is along the property line.

| 0 | 4. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for a metal fence with two brick piers along the Lake Drive and Hampshire frontages at 3025 E. Hampshire Street, in the North Lake Drive Historic District for Katie & Noel Kegel.
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the fence is in the same location and same general design and will be four feet in height. Staff had trouble coming to a position based upon the small back yard and the applicant's security concerns.
Staff has no recommendation, but does have requested conditions if the project is approved, which contained in the Staff Report.
Noel Kegel - owner
Josepha Olla - fence contractor - he brought fence pictures of the proposed work.
Approval with the conditions in the Staff Report.
Commissioners recommending amending the guidelines to prohibit fences in the front yard.
Ald. Bauman doesn't think this sets a precedent due to the large setbacks both on the front and side yards so most properties wouldn't meet this criteria. Mr. Jarosz agreed.
Mr. Jarosz thought a coordinated effort be made to amend the guidelines as it relates to other issues, such as retaining walls as well. | ADOPTED | Pass | 7:0 |

| 0 | 5. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for expansion of the front porch (deck) at 2239 N. Terrace Avenue, in the North Point South Historic District, for Thomas and Suzanne Roepsch.
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said, that, as written, this house does not have a porch, it has a front deck as there is no roof on it. The footing are in bad shape, as is the slab. They would like to extend the deck four feet closer to Terrace Ave. The proposal is to re-build the side walls in place and extend four feet (basically to the depth of the bushes). The guidelines do not prohibit the work and staff recommends approval.
Tom Roepsch - owner - are currently working on matching the mortar and want to re-build the walls to the current height rather than current code.
Therese Sands - architect

| 0 | 6. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for removal of a rear chimney at 2626 N. Terrace Ave., in the North Point North Historic District for David Robert Haas and Dana Onnolee Stevens.
Minutes note: Mr. Stern said the chimney is located on the rear facade and not visible from the right-of-way; it was originally used as a chimney for an incinerator that is no longer in use. The owner would like to remove it down to the roof line and install copper gutters to replace those that were damaged. Staff recommends approval with conditions detailed in the Staff Report, relating to roofing materials.
