STAFF REPORT <br />CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A <br />CERTIFIATE OF APPROPRIATENESS <br />Application Number: 1999-0721 <br />Property Location: 1501 East Wayne Street. <br />Property Owner: Mr. & Mrs. Axelberg <br />Designation: Local Historic District — East Wayne Street <br />Rating: Contributing -10 <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />In 1999, the Commission granted approval of a landscaping plan that included <br />enclosure of a portion of the back yard in an ornamental fence, specifically, either coated <br />chain link.concealed by a hedge, or an aluminum reproduction of an old cast iron style <br />intended to compliment the cast iron lantern and trim on their garage entrance. <br />The rest of the landscaping plan was extensive, and is nearing completion, and as it <br />does, the Axelbergs are realizing that the fence will not only be more useful, but also be more <br />visually appealing if it enclosed a longer sweep of lawn. The proposed changes bring the <br />fence no closer to either street. <br />The Axelbergs would also like to install a wooden play set in the North East corner of <br />the area to be enclosed by the fence. <br />Staff recommends approval of a new Certificate of Appropriateness, approving <br />the new drawing submitted including both fence and play set. <br />
