CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS STAFF REPORT <br />are both necessary and a fete -accompli. <br />. Details not indicated in the photographs include railings which will be <br />required at the handicapped ramp, basement stair, and at the front porch. The <br />railings at the ramp are proposed to extend the detail features at the rear <br />deck which, though more visible from the street, are consistent with other <br />approved features associated with this project at the rear of the building and <br />at the adjacent property to the west. The railings which will be required at <br />the front porch and the stairwell will be more apparent from the street and <br />should therefore be of a design more compatible with the historic <br />architecture. These railing locations are necessary for life safety to prevent <br />accidental fall into the stairwell. The protection at driveway along the side <br />of the stairwell may be best be accomplished with masonry reflecting the <br />character of the foundation. <br />These details may be better defined by the date of the Public Hearing. Staff <br />recommends approval so long as these considerations are addressed. <br />DBD <br />11/7/97 <br />• <br />0 <br />
