Not Recommended <br />Fire prevention equipment should not damage the appearance or fabric of the building. <br />[…] <br />VI. ENFORCEMENT PROCEDURES <br />Enforcement of the preservation guidelines and standards for the historic district is made possible in the Zoning Ordinance of the City of <br />South Bend, ordinance No. 5565-73, as amended and the Historic Preservation Commission’s Preservation Plan. <br />The Historic Preservation Commission may petition the Building Commissioner to use the legal means available to him/her to force the <br />maintenance and / or repair of any building or structure within the historic district in accordance with the intent of this ordinance. <br />This ordinance, however, does not prevent the ordinary maintenance and repair of any building or structure which does not involve a change <br />in any exterior feature, nor does it prevent the reconstruction, alteration, demolition or moving of any building or structure which the <br />Building Commissioner or other official has determined to be a hazard to public safety. <br />Property owners wishing to do, or have done, any work affecting the exterior of their building or land must apply directly to the History <br />Preservation Commission on the form prescribed by the Commission (see Appendix A). The Historic Preservation Commission shall issue a <br />Certificate of Appropriateness before commencement of any construction, reconstruction, alteration, demolition, or moving of any house or <br />structure within the historic district boundaries (see Appendix A). The Historic Preservation Commission will accept applications for <br />Certificate of Appropriateness only from the property owner. <br />In making its determination, the Historic Preservation Commission shall consider three factors: first, the appropriateness of the proposed <br />work to the preservation of the building and district; second, the detriment to the public welfare if the proposed work is permitted even <br />though it is not deemed appropriate; third, the potential hardship that the denial of the Certificate of Appropriateness would cause the <br />applicant. <br />Where the Preservation Commission deems it necessary, the commission may petition the Common Council for a temporary delay in the <br />issuance of the required permit(s) for proposed construction, reconstruction, alteration, demolition or moving for the purpose of preparing an <br />historic preservation plan for a building or district. Such a request shall be for a specified period of time. In no case may the delay granted <br />by the Common Council exceed one (1) year, but the Commission may petition the Common Council for a continuance of any such delay in <br />accordance with the same procedure as for the initial petition. <br />The Commission will review the application and either issue a Certificate of Appropriateness or else deny the application, stating in writing <br />the reasons for such denial. Upon such denial the applicant may appeal to the Common Council. <br />SITE VISIT REPORT: <br />The condition of the removed windows appears consistent with examples that have been restored throughout the <br />Chapin Park Local Historic District. Were this a proactive application, Staff would have directed the applicant to <br />consult a window restoration company. <br />The removed sashes were retrieved and retained by staff. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends denial. <br />Prepared by <br />Adam Toering, Historic Preservation Administrator
