| 0 | 2. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for construction of a gazebo and landscaping alterations at 2419 N. Wahl Avenue in the North Point North Historic District for Beth Myers.
Minutes note: The proposal is for a metal gazebo with additional plantings. There have been two complaints about the installation of this gazebo as no COA was obtained for the completed work. The landscaping is within guidelines. The gazebo does require a building permit, probably because of its size.
Staff recommends denial of the gazebo based upon complaints, but recommends approval of the landscaping. Beth Meyers - owner - the roof line of the gazebo mirrors the roof line of the coach house and it's built within the line of the plane of the house so it doesn't encroach onto the driveway line. It might be slightly visible from the right of way and shields them from a neighbor's security light that is on all night
Ms. Hatala said the complaints they received were related to the materials and whether needed permits had been taken out.
Barbara Elsner - 2420 N. Terrace Ave. - she can see the cheap shingles from her dining room and she feels it's a big negative for her property.
Ald. Bauman moves for approval of the gazebo and landscaping, seconded by Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown. There were no objections wtih Ms. Keating Kahn abstaining.

| 0 | 3. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness to reside the east wall with knotty cedar at 209 W. Lloyd Street in the Brewers Hill Historic District for Georgia Odie.
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said approval was given for a test area for the knotty siding. It's a relatively modest house from 1905 and there is fine detailing between the first and second floors. Staff inspected the sample area and the work does appear to meet the intent of the guidelines and is presentable. Technically staff must recommend denial, although two neighbors do support this work. Staff is imposing conditions for approval detailed in the staff report.
Georgia Odie - 209 W. Lloyd St. - homeowner - the house was her father's. She will do the work in clear cedar on the rear of the property.
Ald. Bauman moved, seconded by Ms. Clendenen-Acosta, with staff condtions. There were no objections. | ADOPTED | Pass | 5:0 |

| 0 | 4. | Resolution | Resolution relating to the temporary historic designation of the property at 4416 - 4420 N. 27th Street, the Isaac Nelson Building, in the 1st Aldermanic District, for Victor and Judith Sumbry.
Minutes note: This item was taken up first on the agenda
Individuals present:
Ald. Ashanti Hamilton - alderman for the district in which the building is located
Ms. Carlen Hatala said there are 2 ground floor storefronts and apartments on the second floor. In the neighborhood are bungalows and bungalow flats. There are tile inserts as decoaration. The smalll addition in the rear was added in 1948. The building was owned by various owners through the years.
Staff recommends approval under e-1 and e-6.
Ald. Hamilton doesn't think we're here for the architectural significance of the building, but using it as momentum for redevelopment. He doesn't feel there is a need for this designation. Historic designation has actually impeded the development of homes in the surrounding area. The city does not need to demolish this building, but he would prefer to avoid the designation.
Judith and Victor Sumbry - 4422 N. 27th St. - nominators - are withdrawing their temorary and permanent applications. She also got 25 signatures to save the building.
Martha Freeman - 4388 N. 27th St. - would like to rehab the building
