CONTINUED ITEM 1. Dick III/Smith COA Z-9632 - (Patterson) 322 North Black Ave. - A Certificate of Appropriateness Application to allow the addition of a 2nd floor to the east end of the existing house along with an adjoining addition, a covered porch along the south and east elevations,roof and siding material changes, and a second story addition to the existing one story garage. This project was tabled at the May 14 DRB meeting. Historic Preservation Officer Derek Strahn presented the project. He distributed elevations given to him this afternoon. The new drawings have no scale. He noted several items from the Memorandum written by Planner Patterson which was sent with the packets. He noted that the DRB had asked the applicant to resubmit drawings for the application in a less confusing format, to make critical decisions on what is desired and proposed for the project, and to decide how to deal with the issues raised at the meeting and in the Staff Report. Planner Patterson noted that the drawnings seem to very generally scaled at 1" =20'. He continued with comments on the floor layout, roof pitch, extra width of the lower floor and its roof extension, the window pattern, the discrepancy between the windows and doors on the floor plans compared to the elevations, and the use of the garage as a business. (Complete text of the Staff Memo on file at the Planning Office.) Planer Strahn reviewed the revised list of conditions which were based on the Staff Report conditions as follows: (1) A demolition permit shall be obtained from the Building Department before work commences on the project. (2) The garage addition is not approved at this time. (3) All plans shall be completely and accurately dimensioned. (4) The proposed east gable end of the addition shall be architecturally detailed in similar fashion as the west gable end. (5) The porch on the south facade shall be emphasized with a railing and post roof supports to provide a stronger sense of entry to the residence. (6) all conditioned modifications to the plans shall be submitted in the building permit drawings for review by the Planning Office. (Complete text of conditions on file at the Planning Office.) Ms. Katz inquired why#4 is a condition. Planer Strahn noted that the west gable exists and the east gable is to be built. Mr.McCrone inquired if there was a historical review completed. Planner Strahn summarized his report that was submitted with the Staff report. Chairperson Chisholm inquired about the garage plans. Mr. Dick noted that he will resubmit the garage plans at a later date. Chairperson Chisholm inquired of Mr. Dick if he was satisfied with the plan development. Mr. Dick noted that his only concern was with the loss of the one bedroom upstairs. Mr. Dick and Chairperson Chisholm discussed the roof pitch existing and proposed. Chairperson Chisholm reviewed the first meeting. He noted that the new plan leaves a narrow space that is too small for a second bedroom. Mr. Dick noted that this is the plan he wants to go forward with. Mr. Willett noted that this design depicts mitigation of the concerns that DRB had at the last meeting. Chairperson Chisholm asked Mr. Dick about the enhancement of the entrance. He continued that it strongly indicates the entrance and is appropriate. Mr. Dick noted that he would put a railing on the entrance anyway and the Staff suggested design is satisfactory. Ms. Walker noted that conditions#4 and#5 are overboard. She doesn't have a problem with the plan as it was submitted. She continued that the roof doesn't have to have exactly the same pitch as the rest of the house. Mr. Dick noted that he plans to duplicate the gable on the east end and on the proposed garage, therefore conditions#4 and#5 are satisfactory. Mr. Gleye concurred with Ms. Walker's comments. He noted that the roof pitch was a major concern, but the new drawings mitigate it. Mr. Dick noted that there is no window on the west side,however, if he can,he will install one. Chairperson Chisholm noted that this set of drawings is adequate for DRB. Chairperson moved for approval of this application as per Staff conditions. Mr. DeHaas seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously by voice vote.
