| 0 | 3. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for the replacement of the front door at 3310-3312 W. McKinley Boulevard in the Cold Spring Park Historic District for 2624 Buffum LLC.
Minutes note: Mr. Dean Doerrfeld said that the Commission has typically not approved this type of door on the street face. An illegally installed door was found next door when staff was in the field and the Dept. of Neighborhood Services has been notified. Staff recommends denial.
Kim Queen - 6700 W. Fairview Ave. - he is opposed to staff recommendationand he has photographs of other properties in violation. He is present on behalf of the LLC. It would be difficult to get a historic door and it would offer no security. He has installed other non-historic doors on historic properties owned by the LLC. He says that steel wears less than wood and offers greater security.

| 0 | 8. | Resolution | Substitute resolution granting permanent historic designation of the Crain/Claflin House at 1773 North Cambridge Avenue, in the 3rd Aldermanic District for Cambridge 1773, LLC.
Minutes note: Ms. Carlen Hatala said that the neighborhood was developed in the 1870s and was a fashionable neighborhood. The house has not changed much in 111 years and had a carriage house that matched the house. The house had 3 primary owners and has remained in good conditon today. Charles Crain and family owned the house from 1880-1894 and he was an insurance professional. In 1880 the entry was off to the side. The house was owned by Thomas Claflin and family from 1899-1920 and he was an entrepreneur and owned a commercial laundry. The house was skillfully remodeled from 1903-1904. The foundation does show signs of what additions were added. Henry Betts was the architect for the remodel. The rear of the house has a simple extension that was added in 1903/1904. The third owner was Anson Eldred and family from 1917-1947 and he was a tool manufacturer who ran Milwaukee Press and Machine. Staff recommends permanent historic designation based on e-1, e-5 and e-6 (Henry Betts worked with Edward Townsend Mix and was very adept in arts and crafts).
