359 <br />360 C. STANDARDS AND MAINTENANCE <br />361 <br />362 - JOHN OXIAN: There is nothing new to report. <br />363 <br />364 5. STAFF REPORTS <br />365 <br />366 A. Staff Approvals <br />367 <br />368 RHONDA SAUNDERS: A list of staff approved certificates was included in the <br />369 monthly packet. <br />370 <br />371 <br />372 B. Legal <br />373 <br />374 CHERYL GREENE: I was contacted by the members of the Standards and <br />375 Maintenance Committee regarding the roof top lighting of the 1855 Courthouse. I was <br />376 asked to confirm whether or not there had ever been a Certificate of Appropriateness <br />377 issued for the roof top exterior lighting. I reviewed all the minutes, the applications <br />378 submitted by the St. Joseph County Commissioners, correspondence from the Architect <br />379 and Department of Natural Resources, Division of Archaeology and Historic <br />380 Preservation. After reviewing all of the material it is my opinion that the architect did not <br />381 reapply for a Certificate of Appropriateness for the exterior roof lighting. In February 8, <br />382 1999 the architect submitted a second Certificate of Appropriateness application, which <br />383 did reference exterior lighting. That came before the Commission on February 16, 1999 <br />384 at which time the Commission approved the Certificate of Appropriateness with <br />385 exception of the windows and exterior lighting. As of February 16, 1999 the exterior <br />386 lighting on the courthouse was denied. The architect has since tried to amend the <br />387 Certificate of Appropriateness in order to have the lighting approved, however, he has not <br />388 submitted anything in writing. Therefore, the lighting on the courthouse is not in <br />389 compliance. It is my recommendation that legal consul send a letter to the architect and <br />390 property owner that they submit an application for the roof top lighting for the <br />391 Commission to review. Since I serve at your pleasure I need some direction. <br />392 <br />393 MARTHA CHOITZ: I move that legal consul, Cheryl Greene, pursue this matter <br />394 by sending a letter to the owner and architect outlining her findings and the need for a <br />395 new application to be submitted for the roof top lighting. <br />396 <br />397 GERALD UJDAK: I second the motion. <br />398 <br />1 <br />
