Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. <br />Such improvements include re- roofing, glazing, or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can <br />potentially enhance or detract from the character of he landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether <br />on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the <br />appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit, a Certificate <br />of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and <br />style consistency with the original surfaces. <br />C. Renovation and Additions <br />Renovation is the modification of a structure, which does not alter the general massing while and addition, is a <br />change in mass. A modification, which involves the removal of a part of the landmark, should be considered <br />under demolition (see demolition). <br />Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of ht landmark and should not <br />cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does <br />not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions, materials and ratios of the <br />existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the <br />following: <br />1. Structure Necessary structural improvements, where safety demands should be accomplished in such a <br />way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. <br />2. Material— Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same <br />material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it <br />duplicates the original. <br />a. wood —all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The windows in the converted school house are not original to the <br />structure. The windows on the first floor have been replaced at least once and the windows on the second <br />floor were added when the school was converted to a dwelling. Staff recommends approval of the vinyl <br />replacement windows on the second floor and in the rear on the first floor. The first floor windows with <br />the transoms are problematic because of the floor joist is in the transom section of the windows which <br />blocks the removal of the transom without destroying the transoms. The transom sections of these <br />windows are very poorly insulated. The use of the white raised panel is an appropriate solution to this <br />problem as it will cover the insulation and sheathing and achieve the look of what is there now. The white <br />trim will match the rest of the trim on the house when the Swanks re -paint the house. Staff is withholding <br />recommending the approval of the vinyl replacement windows in the windows with the transoms until the <br />Schoberg estimate is evaluated. <br />
