221415 01.ResolutionResolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for rooftop solar panels at 3410 N. Lake Drive, in the North Lake Drive Estates Historic District, for William Lynch.

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said this is a new construction house from 2007 in a neo-prairie style, low-slung, two-story with five separate arrays of solar panels. The front-most array of panels would be highly visible to the public. He would recommend against array #2 on the garage roof and work with staff for alternate locations for other panels for arrays 1, 3-5. Held as no-one present on this item.

221416 02.ResolutionResolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for conceptual review of a rear balcony extension, addition of double doors, and a garage remodel at 2386 N. Terrace Avenue, in the North Point North Historic District for Aaron DeKosky and Holly Milanowski.

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said there are a number of changes to the garage The present garage was on-site in 1963, but couldn't locate a permit for its construction. There was a shed originally on the site with no driveway. Mr. Askin could not see how a 1.5 foot requirement from the setback could be met. Aaron DeKoskey - property owner - they're working on renovating the interior right now and in summer will begin working on the exterior. The purpose is to add a usable space to the back yard. They want to add French doors to the rear so they can see the lake. They are proposing a spiral staircase with cable railings to take advantage of the view. They want vinyl siding on the garage as it's a metal stud structure. They would attach a stone veneer so it matches the look of the house. Mr. Askin would object to extending the deck so far over the garage. The staircase might be subject to a fifteen foot setback, but plan exam may not agree. He definitely would not support cable railings on this property. He also thinks it's out of scale to the house and yard, although an improvement on the garage. The carriage house totally obstructs the view of the garage from the public way; only seen by the neighbors immediately adjacent to the house. Ms. Peltz would vote against a porch on the garage. She does not believe the balconies reflect the style of the house. The owner would like approval of the French doors on the second floor. He is only seeking approval for that today. For that, staff would need to approve the materials. Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown moved to approve a single door with staff review of the materials. The owner would like a double French door that open up. Wood exterior doors would be required by the Commission. Ms. Keating Kahn moves to amend the motion of Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown to approve a door that works with staff, a double French door would be okay if approved by Mr. Askin. Seconded by Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown. The owner believes both decks were original to the house. Mr. Askin will research what decking was original.

221455 03.ResolutionResolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for changes to the design of a previously approved parish hall addition at 2618 N. Hackett Avenue, in the Downer Avenue Commercial Historic District for St. Mark’s Church.

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said this was before the Commission twice before - it's back here due to budgetary constraints. Mr. Askin actually prefers this design. There will be no rooftop deck, no stairs to the deck and changes to the brickwork on the second story. Mr. Askin recommends approval, pending final review of the window, railing and door selections. Mark Shields - architect - the glass is almost 13" back to match the existing church. Kay Wosewick - 2133 N. Hackett - opposed as not compatible with the existing church. Joan Strakowski - 2133 N. Hackett - she does not support the color change as she thought the light gray brick was approved. Deborah Violin - 2133 N. Hackett - she agrees with Ms. Strakowski and is also opposed due to the materials. The architect said the brick color is not being changed from that previously approved by the Commission.

221478 04.ResolutionResolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for alterations to the north façade of the Lake Park Pavilion, at 3133 E. Newbery Boulevard, in the North Point North Historic District, for Milwaukee County and Bartolotta Restaurants.

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said Bartolotta would like to add kitchen space and are proposing a bump out, which will add 200 square feet within the portico. They made a serious effort to have it blend in. This is the least-visible place to put an addition. He feels the railing is a little too elaborate and should be actual wood. He would also like to have final review of the materials. Sarah Toomsen - Milwaukee County Parks Shawn Maher - architect Carrie Koenig - Bartolotta restaurant Approve with conditions from staff and redesign the railing.
