Mr. Luchies confirmed that the installation was incorrect and that the entire stucco apparatus as is in place would need to be <br />removed. The only way to replicate original structure stucco would be to attach stainless steel expanded metal sheets to the entire <br />surface with furring strips to allow key spacing. The entire surface would need to be surfaced with a sub mortar layer, then an <br />aggregated base layer, then a top surface aggregated layer on top. This would be removing the entire stucco and starting from <br />scratch. <br />Steve Szaday, Preservation Specialist <br />STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: <br />CHAPIN PARK <br />EXISTING STRUCTURES <br />A. BUILDING MATERIALS <br />Original exterior building materials in the district include brick, stucco, clapboard, wood shingles, and brick or stone masonry. In <br />some instances, vinyl, composite and aluminum siding have been applied over the original material. <br />Require <br />Original exterior building materials shall be retained when possible. Deterioration of wood materials shall be prevented through <br />repair, cleaning and painting. The existing architectural detail around windows, porches, doors and eaves shall be retained or <br />replaced by replicas of the same design when deteriorated beyond repair. Masonry, including brick and stucco structures, shall be <br />maintained, and properly cleaned only when necessary to halt deterioration or to remove stains and shall be done in a method <br />acceptable for the preservation of the surface: i.e. low-pressure water and soft natural bristle brushes. Brick or masonry mortar <br />joints should be repointed only when there is evidence of moisture problems, or when sufficient mortar is missing to allow water <br />to stand in the mortar joint. Existing mortar shall be duplicated in composition, color, texture, joint size, method of application <br />and joint profile. When repairing stucco, stucco mixture shall be used. A professional shall make a study of the old stucco, to <br />determine the exact mixture and underlayment used in the original work. Some repair methods are not compatible with the <br />original techniques and may cause early disintegration of the repair work and the original work. Ample ventilation must be <br />afforded the structure when siding is installed, in order to prevent increased deterioration of the structure from moisture and <br />insects. <br />Recommended <br />Whenever possible, the original building materials should be restored. When maintaining or repairing original siding is not <br />feasible, aluminum, vinyl or composite siding may be used. When used over wood surfaces, this siding should be the same size <br />and style as the original wood. Every effort should be made to retain the original trim around windows, doors, cornices, gables, <br />eaves and other architectural features. <br />Property owners should contact the Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County prior to initiating <br />any restoration or rehabilitation effort. [Address and contact information is listed in the front of the Guidebook.] The Commission <br />is an invaluable source of information about all facets of rehabilitation and restoration — materials, methods, contractors and the <br />like. <br />Prohibited <br />Wood siding shall not be resurfaced with new material that is inappropriate or was unavailable when the building was <br />constructed, such as artificial stone, brick veneer, asbestos or asphalt shingles. Sandblasting or the use of harsh detergents shall <br />not be used on masonry including brick, stucco, limestone, flagstone and sandstone. This method of cleaning erodes the surface <br />material and accelerates deterioration. Repointing shall not be done with a mortar of high Portland cement content which can <br />often create a bond that is stronger than the building material. Usage of Portland cement can cause deterioration as a result of the <br />differing coefficient of expansion and porosity of the historic masonry unit and the mortar. This most often results in serious <br />damage to adjacent brick. Unpainted masonry surfaces shall not be painted unless they had been painted originally. Paint shall <br />not be removed from masonry surfaces by any means that damage the surface. <br />Not Recommended <br />Waterproof or water repellent coatings or surface consolidation treatments should not be used on masonry surfaces unless <br />required to solve a specific problem that has been studied and identified. Coatings are frequently unnecessary and expensive, and <br />can accelerate deterioration of the masonry. Mortar joints, which do not need repointing, should not be repointed. Wood siding <br />should not be power -washed. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval. <br />Deb Parcell, Deputy Director <br />Commissioner Gordon moved to approve application as submitted. Seconded by Commissioner <br />Parker. Six in favor, none opposed. <br />Vote: 6 — 0 <br />COA#2016-0606B Approved. <br />8. 127 Franklin COA#2016-0608 Local Landmark <br />No representation <br />STAFF REPORT <br />CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A <br />10 <br />
