CITY OF SOUTH BEND AND ST. JOSEPH COUNTY I HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION Staff Recommendation: The applicant has requested approval to remove existing aluminum siding and trim and recycle and install. Mastic rigid vinyl 7-inch siding. Remove existing K style gutters and downspouts and replace with new K style gutters and downspouts and replace existing non-functional shutters with new. Existing aluminum siding has an 8-inch reveal and the new vinyl siding would have a 7-inch reveal to more closely resemble the original cedar clapboard. The original siding beneath the aluminum is to be retained and preserved as much as possible during the installation of the vinyl. The windows are not original and there's likely not much historic material remaining, though South Bend Roofing Siding and Window Co would like to retain historic material found if possible. The gutter profile would not change, nor the appearance of the non -historic, non-functional shutters. The visual impact of the home will be kept intact.
