Please proceed with the next step for the COA. <br />Thank you for your guidance and feedback. <br />-Karen <br />On Fri, Feb 24, 2023 at 1:26 PM Ross Van Overberghe <rvoverber@southbendin.gov> wrote: <br />Karen, <br /> <br />I went out today and conducted a site visit to assess the column. My report is attached. I <br />found the column to be in good and solid condition. By the standards and guidelines, it is <br />less than 50% deteriorated beyond repair. Therefore, it does not qualify for replacement. If <br />you change your application to repair and restore the column, I will be able to <br />administratively approve the project. <br /> <br />If you would like to continue with requesting to replace the column the project will need to <br />be heard by the commission at the next meeting on March 20. <br /> <br />Also, are you only replacing floor boards as needed or are you requesting to replace all the <br />flooring? <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Ross Van Overberghe <br />Historic Preservation Specialist <br />Department of Community <br /> Investment <br />Office: (574) 235-7672 <br />rvoverber@southbendin.gov <br />City of South Bend <br />227 W.
