S. 619 Riverside Drive -- RB-LHD - Install new fiberglass roof shingles 9. Old Business A. 1244 Lincolnway East Mr. Duvall noted the Staff report had been read previously. lie noted the issue pending was Dr. Kloper's approval .of the Scope of Work as prepared by the Commission. Dr. Klopfer spoke of his need to have some place to -store tools and equipment since his garage has been torn down. He noted a slab still exists from the previous garage and that he would like to build a new garage or a temporary structure. President Oxian inquired of Stan Molenda of Code Enforcement if Dr. Klopfer could build a garage. Mr. Molenda replied affirmatively, but noted that would be affected by the next item on the agenda, the C of A to take the structure down. President Oxian stated if Dr. Klopfer had not come to the Commission meeting or had not accepted the Scope of Work, then the HPC would have heard the demolition application. President Oxian added, Dr. Klopfer had shown his approval for the Scope of Work and was now in need of a structure to store equipment and tools in. Mr. Molenda replied Code Enforcement had no problem with the building of a storage structure. President Oxian inquired if the Commission would have a problem with Dr. Klopfer building a garage on the same site of the demolished garage if he brings plans to the Commission for approval. Commissioner Sporleder replied in principle therewould be no quarrel with the building of a new garage, but the design would have to be carefully looked at if it was to be a permanent structure. Dr. Klopfer noted he was thinking of building a permanent garage on the already extant slab, or of bringing in a trailer as a temporary structure. Mr. Duvall noted a conflict of time due to the deteriorated condition of the house. The poor condition of the roof raised his concern as to whether the structure would make it through another winter. Dr. Klopfer said he understood the roof was bad, but only in certain areas. Mr. Duvall felt there is no time to entertain waiting to get plans for the garage and then approval. He suggested that the ideal situation would be to get a semi trailer on the site as quickly as possible for the storage of equipment, and begin to stabilize the existing house. President_ Oxian inquired if Code Enforcement would have any arguments with a temporary trailer being parked in the property. Mr. Molenda replied negatively. President Oxian informed Dr. Klopfer that he could get a trailer on the property temporarily, but if he wanted to built a permanent garage later, he would have to come back to the Commission for approval. President Oxian asked for Dr. Klopfer to state his approval for the Scope of Work and the decisions made by the Commission regarding the garage and temporary storage of equipment. Commissioner Choitz inquired if there were any restrictions on how long a temporary structure could remain on the site. Mr. Molenda replied Code Enforcement really had no' jurisdiction over that situation, however the Building Department might. Commissioner Sporleder inquired as to why the house itself could not be used for storage since it is unoccupied and the proposed work did not show a need for a massive amount of building supplies. She added her understanding of the need for security, but that many buildings are built without the construction of a subsidiary building for storage, and that she saw no necessity for a storage structure other than the house itself. President Oxian stated Dr. Klopfer had already accepted the proposal and agreed to begin the work, and he saw no reason the Dr. Klopfer couldn't park a temporary structure on site. Ed Talley commented that from experience he knew there would have to be a hearing from Area Plan to park a temporary structure on a site and that may take 60 days to accomplish. President Oxian noted in that case, Dr. Klopfer would have
