a. wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. <br />b. siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials <br />with additional siding. Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a <br />siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. <br />D. Demolition <br />Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety, and demolition is <br />the only alternative, documentation by way of photographs, measured drawings, or other descriptive methods <br />should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition <br />of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. <br />E. Moving <br />The moving of landmarks is discouraged, however, moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary, <br />the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. <br />F. Signs <br />No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super -graphics <br />will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. <br />G. Building Site and Landscaping <br />1. Required <br />Major landscaping items, trees, fencing, walkways, private yard lights, signs (house numbers) and benches <br />which reflect the property’s history and development shall be retained. Dominant land contours shall be <br />retained. Structures such as: gazebos, patio decks, fixed barbecue pits, swimming pools, tennis courts, <br />green houses, new walls, fountains, fixed garden furniture, trellises, and other similar structures shall be <br />compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a <br />public way. <br />2. Recommended <br />New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in <br />photographs, drawings, and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that <br />are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However, trees and plant <br />materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should <br />not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. <br />Fencing should be in character with the buildings style, materials, and scale. <br />3. Prohibited <br />No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items, trees, <br />fencing, walkways, outbuildings, and other elements before evaluating their importance to the property’s <br />history and development. Front yard areas shall not be transformed into parking lots nor paved nor <br />blacktopped. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall <br />not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. <br /> <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Although the appearance of the vinyl jamb liners will be minimal, the proposed <br />treatment to the windows is a departure from the original and can be deemed a temporary solution to lead <br />abatement. Staff recommendation is to fully remove lead paint from windows and repair, in-kind. <br /> <br /> <br />Prepared by <br />Elicia Feasel <br />Historic Preservation Administrator <br /> <br />
