336 <br />of the dining room. Replacement Windows, inserts or tilt backs are <br />337 <br />of high quality in wood without aluminum clad and double pane: <br />338 <br />Neither interior nor exterior storm windows are required for this <br />339 <br />solution. My view, they meet the essential criteria of sustainability <br />340 <br />and authenticity to address my window problem. So, why I am <br />341 <br />applying for this? Well, I think that the windows cannot be <br />342 <br />restored in-situ as the staff report says. They have to be taken out, <br />343 <br />they have to be repaired while we are exposed to bad weather and <br />344 <br />moved in again. There are, I think, in our discussions three options <br />345 <br />we have examined but none of them is acceptable. The first option <br />346 <br />is to install a second glass on the restored single pane windows. <br />347 <br />This is not possible because the size of my windows is too big and <br />348 <br />the strength of the windows would be impaired severely. But <br />349 <br />second option is interior storm windows. They could be installed, <br />350 <br />technically speaking, yes. But this decision is at the discretion of <br />351 <br />the owner and I don't want interior storm windows because they <br />352 <br />substantially impair the aesthetics of the dining room and need to <br />353 <br />be removed and re -installed in spring and fall respectively; hence <br />354 <br />reducing my quality of life. Third, the third option is exterior storm <br />'355 <br />windows, but they are technically not feasible in the bay area. <br />356 <br />Moreover, they would harm the current historic aesthetics of the <br />357 <br />exterior of the area. Furthermore, my house never had, never had, <br />358 <br />exterior storm windows. How, then, could the Historic <br />359 <br />Preservation Commission require install something new that is <br />360 <br />alien to my historic house. Because none of these three options is <br />361 <br />acceptable and no other proposal was offered by the Commission, l <br />362 <br />can not but ask for the proposed four Marvin windows replacement <br />363 <br />windows. I think that this solution does the least harm to the <br />364 <br />existing structure of my house. Thank you. <br />365 Lynn Patrick: <br />I'd like to ask, if may, is that a prepared statement that you have <br />366 <br />just read? <br />367 Georges Enderle: <br />Prepared? <br />368 Lynn Patrick: <br />Yes, what you just read us, did you have it all written out in <br />369 <br />advance? <br />370 Georges Enderle: Well, its some remarks, I can give it later on. <br />371 Lynn Patrick: I am wondering if that would be helpful since the person who is <br />372 going to be typing up the minutes, if you had a copy, we could <br />373 include with the materials, it would make it easier when she goes <br />374 to type up the minutes. <br />375 Georges Enderle: I will send it. <br />11 <br />
