Awnings, hoods, and fake shutters made of metal, vinyl, or fiberglass should not be used if they would detract from the <br />existing character or appearance of the building. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: No one is quite sure if the current windows are original to the house. The survey <br />card indicates a 6/6 double hung pattern, while what is currently on the house is a mix of 6/6 on the second floor and <br />8/8 on the first floor in addition to other muntin patterns. Staff was unable to do an interior inspection of the windows; <br />however what staff could observe from the exterior was that cosmetically the front first floor windows appeared to be <br />OK. However, Bob Grant of Bob Grant Construction, Inc. performed an interior inspection and concluded that the <br />windows require extensive repairs and that five of the fourteen are of an inferior quality. Staff recommends approval of <br />the replacement windows. <br />From April 18, 2011 meeting: <br />[On a motion by Linda Riley with a second by Jerry Niezgodski to continue application <br />pending closer inspection of windows by staff. Vote: 6-0 <br />COA 2011-0404 was continued.] <br />From the May 16, 2011 meeting: <br />On a motion by Todd Zeiger with a second by Lynn Patrick to continue application with <br />adequate time for homeowner to provide photos of the interior of the windows only <br />showing condition of the sash, jamb, and sill, keyed to window location photo and an <br />example of the proposed replacement system so we can see exactly what it is that is being <br />proposed and to explore sash packs. Vote: 5-0 Commissioner Rossow absent. <br />COA 2011-0404 was continued with conditions. <br />B. NATIONAL REGISTER NOMINATION <br />III. HEARING OF VISITORS <br />None <br />IV.
