| 0 | 1. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for re-siding the Disch-Rising-Morgan Puddler’s Cottage, an interim individually designated property, in the proposed South Superior Street Puddlers’ Cottages Historic District, at 2530 S. Superior Street, for 2530 S. Superior, LLC.
Minutes note: Mr. Askin said the house currently has vinyl siding and there is asbestos shingle under the vinyl. Applicant would like the LP SmartSide to replace the vinyl on the house and garage. The house is so old the construction is very unusual; there may be stud cavity, it might just structural sheathing. He is slightly on the approval side.
Mr. Jarosz is inclined to approve due to the unique situation relating to the house construction.

| 0 | 3. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for replacing the front door at 120 W. Reservoir Street, in the Brewers Hill Historic District for Justin & Alyssa Trad.
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the door in question is on the far left and is one third light over 5 panels.

The applicant is requesting permission for any of the 5 choices.
The commission supported the one on the left, which most closely matches the other two existing doors.
Grant the door on the left. | ADOPTED | Pass | 4:0 |

Minutes note: Ms. Jacqueline Drayer said the construction was approved in 2018, but this application is for a change in materials. The design is generally compatible with the district. Staff recommends approval as the garage does mirror the house design.

| 0 | 7. | Resolution | Certificate of Appropriateness for a storefront remodel and various repairs at 815 - 817 W. Historic Mitchell Street, in the Mitchell Street Historic District, for Hector Salinas.
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the glass part of the storefront is currently caving in. A proposed design with aluminum storefront and windows and some bricking-in has been proposed. The building was built in 1888, but there is no evidence of its initial construction; the known photos are from 1939. Staff recommends approval with conditions, one of which is to not brick up sections. The roof changes will be reviewed by Plan Exam. The arch in the windows will be retained as those windows will not be touched.
Keith Schultz - architect; he has no objections to the conditions and he is not sure the owner has any funds for the roof work. They would leave the existing facade as it is; just revise the doors and windows.

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the proposed garage is bigger than the existing garage and it will be constructed out of a hardy material to meet fire rating issues. Flat, membrane roof hidden by the parapet. The proposed Hardy product only exists with a smooth finish and he thinks it will look okay. He believes applicant would go with clapboard. The garage isn't visible from the street at all.

| 0 | 10. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for landscaping and paving alterations at 2710 E. Belleview Place, in the North Point North Historic District, for Robert & Allyn Travis.
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said sub-par landscaping work was done and there were defects in the construction and it worsened the drainage issues on the neighboring properties. The driveway was poured while a stop-work order was in effect. The steps have to meet building code as they are the only means of egress from the front door. The houses are close as there are 4 houses on 2-3 lots. There is also a structure in the back yard that touches a neighbor's house that was never approved. The neighbor objects to this project as the prior work also worsened her drainage issues. A new landscape plan was submitted and it was done by a professional company, Flagstone. They propose to re-do the retaining wall, re-build the steps, re-do the driveway to correct drainage and remove all the timbers in the front yard. The neighbor is asking that the walkway on the west side by re-done to address drainage; that would need to be added. Mr. Askin thinks it's reasonable as proposed.
Atty. Tom Gartner for the owners.
Bob Travis - he did a survey and the west walkway is on his property and the window wells are on her property. They would like to put paving stones along that walkway. The wood rack is on his property and not touching her house. He objects to moving the wood rack, which isn't an HPC issue. He wants something done with that west walkway and he would like a condition that the adjacent owner has to agree that he can touch her window well.
Grant, as proposed and they will need to settle the west walkway matter between themselves. That is satisfactory to the homeowners. | ADOPTED | Pass | 5:0 |

| 0 | 11. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for an addition at 217 W. Reservoir Avenue, in the Brewers Hill Historic District, for Jamison and Suzanne Klinkner.
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the mass was approved in March 2020. The house has an addition from 1970 or so and the owner is proposing another addition on the rear off the alley. There is no way for them to build a garage that isn't attached due to fire variance and setbacks; there only options are an attached garage or a parking slab. The HPC approved an attached garage. The applicants will add a fixed window in the dormer and will move the 2 windows closer to make the gap less than 8 feet.
Jamison Klinkner - owner - they would like to introduce a small window. Staff is fine with that, but it would be up to DNS or DCD.

| 0 | 13. | Resolution | Certificate of Appropriateness for construction of a new garage at 3002 W. State Street, in the Concordia Historic District, for Patrick Kennelly.
Minutes note: Mr. Jaqueline Drayer said the proposal is to build a 4-car garage off the public alley and will be Flemish bond brick mimicking the main house as do the design features. The stucco will match the house as will the roofing slope. The carriage lights also match the house lights and the doors are on the approve list. A very competent design that is very complementary to the property. There are conditions set by staff as part of the report.
Mr. Patrick Kennelly - owner
Ms. Allyson Nemec - architect - they are proposing the shortened ridge so the edges of the gables don't get wet as recommended by the manufacturer. The owner is willing to do what staff wants, but it is against manufacturer's recommendations. It won't be as obvious as it is in the elevation. There are a number of 4-car garages in the area.
Ald. Bauman supports following the design specs

| 0 | 15. | Resolution | Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for construction of a new house at 116 W. Vine Street, in the Brewers Hill Historic District, for Michael Warecki.
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said a 2.5-story house with attached garage facing the alley is proposed. The garage is the full width of the house and some details still need to be worked out. Staff thinks that a detached garage is feasible. The roof line does not delineate where the house ends and the garage begins. There will be living space above the garage and the east elevation is exposed to the neighborhood and will be highly visible, even with the proposed fence. Staff is disinclined to approve the skylights on the west elevation. They have pretty much met all of the zoning overlay rules. The house is tall, but not unprecedented and is near to industrial buildings. Something needs to be done to separate the body of the house from the body of the garage visually. Staff would not support slider doors, as preferred by the owner; staff recommends French doors. Staff report does include conditions.
For the garage, the Commission has supported detached garages where feasible. Staff is concerned with the unfinished bonus space above the garage. If approved, it needs design revisions to break up the visual between the house and the garage.
Staff recommends holding and re-scheduling for July.
The Commission supported the house, but saw the need to differentiate between the house and the garage on the east elevation.
Mr. Askin was incorrect; there isn't a room for a detached garage. He retracts that statement.
Mr. Michael Warecki - there is a trellis to break up the east elevation between the house and the garage.
Ms. Keating Kahn is fine with an attached garage as it's a nice amenity.
Mr. Jarosz would recommend setting back the garage by a foot or so by the second set of doors.

Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said the wing collapsed before the city owned it. Ms. Jacqueline Drayer said the city took possession under tax foreclosure in March. The collapsed wing does not contribute to the character of the house; the foundation will be kept by the city. This wing was constructed in 1960 and is not very visible from the street. Staff recommends approval; the state does not object.
