Mrs. Toal said she wanted double hung sashes because they could be shuttered and casements could not. She needed shutters to protect her furniture from sun damage. Mr. Herendeen named alternate suppliers of windows and cast doubt on whether Pella was the best supplier. Mrs. Toal said she liked Pella windows because she'd used them on the house already and liked the way they looked. Mrs. Sporleder suggested going back to the drawing -board to try to fit new windows into the existing openings. She argues that keeping the original openings was cheaper, simpler, and less destructive. Mr. Herendeen suggested forming a committee. Mr. Oxian appointed Mrs. Sporleder, Mr. Herendeen, Mrs. Choitz, and Mr. Eide to review alternatives and make a decision. Mr. Pastor said he'd already contacted Colby & Colby, a firm with a good record for supplying historically appropriate windows. Mr. Herendeen moved to approve a committee meeting, adding that it should take place that week. Mrs. Choitz seconded. Mrs. Toal invited the committee to come view her house so they could more clearly understand the problem. Mr. Herendeen agreed to do so. Mr. Oxian asked Mrs. Toal to attend next month's meeting to hear the committee's recommendation. 3. 1231 E. Wayne North--LHD.
