Stucco surfaces shall be maintained by cleaning and repainted when necessary. When repairing stucco a stucco mixture shall be used. <br />Recommended <br />A& Whenever possible, the original building materials should be restored. <br />Aluminum or vinyl siding may be used when it is the only feasible alternative to maintaining the original surface material. When used over <br />wood surfaces, this siding should be the sante size and style as the original wood. However it must be noted that such material can contribute <br />to the deterioration of the structure from moisture and insects. <br />Mortar joints should be repointed only when there is evidence of moisture problems or when sufficient mortar is missing to allow water to <br />stand in the mortar joint. Existing mortar shall be duplicated in composition, color, texture, joint size, method of application, and joint profile. <br />D. ENTRANCES, PORCHES, AND STEPS <br />The majority of the houses in the district have either an open or a enclosed porch across the front or on the side. Most porches have either <br />gabled or hipped roofs or are covered by the main roof of the house. A brick base with wood columns is common. <br />Required <br />Existing or original porches and steps, including handrails, balusters, columns, brackets, tiles and roof decorations shall be retained <br />or replace with replicas of the same design and materials when deteriorated beyond repair. Porches and additions reflecting later <br />architectural styles and which are important to the building's historical integrity shall be retained. <br />Recommended <br />When enclosing porches for heat conservation or for other reasons, it should be done in a manner that does not alter the architectural or <br />historical character of the building. <br />Prohibited <br />Porches and steps that are important to the building's style and development may not be altered or removed. <br />Not Recommended <br />Original porch details should not be replaced with materials representing a different period or style from the original. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: <br />Structures like the boathouse are not specifically defined within the Standards and Guidelines, and as such, the <br />general text covering building materials, as well as those covering entrances, porches, and steps, are considered for <br />this recommendation. Both sections of the Standards and Guidelines require that existing or original elements be <br />retained or replaced with replicas of the same design and materials. Historic precedence exists for this, in the form <br />of a Certificate of Appropriateness issued in April of 1990 that allowed for the "replacing all wood on boathouse <br />with wolmanized lumber." The applicant received approval to reconstruct the handrail earlier this year with RME <br />#2018-0501A. Vinyl is only explicitly mentioned four times in the Standards and Guidelines, in relation to siding <br />and window awnings, hoods, and fake shutters. <br />Staff recommends that the application be denied based upon the requirements of the Standards and Guidelines. <br />Written by <br />Adam Toering <br />Historic Preservation Specialist <br />Approved by <br />Elicia Feasel <br />Historic Preservation Administrator <br />40 <br />
