II. STRUCTURES <br />A. ROOFS <br />Preferred: Keep the original shape of the roof. Retain the original roofing material. A special effort should be made to do this • <br />when the roof in question is of tile, slate, or some other unique material not usually found today. Preserve or replace all <br />architectural features which give the roof its character, such as dormer windows, cupolas, cornices, brackets, chimneys, cresting, <br />weathervanes, and special eaves. <br />Permitted: When necessary to replace roofing material, match the original as closely as possible in size, shape and texture. <br />Prohibited: Do not add, remove, or alter features which will change its character or the architectural character of the house. <br />C. PORCHES AND STEPS WHICH ARE READILY VISIBLE FROM THE STREET <br />Preferred: Retain and maintain porches and steps including hand rails, balusters, columns, brackets, roof decoration, tile, and <br />brick. If porches and / or steps are enclosed for heat conservation or other reasons, it should be done in a manner that does not <br />destroy the architectural nor historical character of the home. <br />Permitted: Replace porches and steps with materials matching the original as closely as possible. A cement porch floor is <br />permitted for the structure on Lot 12. <br />Prohibited: Porches and steps that are appropriate to the style of the house shall not be removed. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: <br />Staff accepts that the porches have deteriorated and necessitate major repair, and therefore favorably recommends the overall <br />purpose of this application. Staff makes no recommendation at this time regarding replacement of Corinthian columns and piers <br />due to the unknown ability to preserve original. Staff requests the Commission remand authority to make minor decisions where <br />contingencies exist and decisions needed acted upon with urgency. <br />Written by <br />Adam Toering <br />Historic Preservation Specialist <br />Approved by <br />Elicia Feasel <br />Historic Preservation Administrator <br />Commissioner Gelfman made a motion to approve application #2018-0314 and also • <br />remanding authority to the HPC staff to make minor decisions where contingencies exist or <br />any decisions that need to be acted upon with urgency, including the replacement and <br />reconstruction of the Corinthian columns and piers.
