The workers for Quality Door had just removed the double door and side lights from the west side of the house. I confirmed through the permit system that no COA or AA was issued for the work and then called Adam at the office. The work was not part of a recent application submitted. The submitted application was from A&M Roofing for the roof and removal of a doorway on the east side of the structure. I introduced myself to the crew working and the gentleman showed me his paperwork via a work order on his phone stating that a permit was pulled. I photographed what was removed and then what was to be installed. Dimensions were nearly identical. And with the color selections the outside appearances were also very similar. The main difference was the original were hinged outward opening doors as opposed to the replacements which are sliding. The other part worth mentioning is that the removed was a combination of aluminum and wood whereas the new appeared to be solely extruded aluminum. The doors that were removed were not original to the house as those materials (wood and aluminum combination) would not have been in use when the house was built. Photographs have been added to the digital file. I will provide a finished product photograph when I return to the site at the next opportunity.

Thanks for getting back to me. The existing door had to be replaced due to water damage to the door and subsequent warping causing a 1” gap in the frame. This allowed direct access to the interior. Additionally the side lights that were installed with the door were not actually windows, rather, double sided sheets of glass that had been made to look like windows. There was a lack of sealing around said windows. In regards to the replacement work on the trim, I’m assuming that you’ll need the before pics, is that right?

Thank you for providing details of the project along with the manufacturer specification for the door. To complete the application (page 3 checklist), please email photographs of the project areas. Don't worry about providing a blueprint or site plan with this project. Can you also expand the description of proposed work describing the need for the change in the door. > > Once photographs and description update is received, this project will likely be qualify to be processed as an Administrative Approval. > > Thank you, > > Elicia > > ‐‐‐‐‐Original Message‐‐‐‐‐ > From: Elicia Feasel > Sent: Monday, December 2, 2019 9:57 AM > To: Chris <chrisdavis304@gmail.com> > Cc: Adam Toering <atoering@southbendin.gov> > Subject: RE: Permit Required / Chapin Park > > Greetings ‐ > 5 > Thank you for contacting Historic Preservation Commission. The two most recently approved Certificate of Appropriateness' are attached. Replacement of a rear door is documented as being installed without approval. The rear door, along with in‐kind wood trim replacement (and any other current projects not already approved) should be applied for by completing the Certificate of Appropriateness application and checklist at southbendin.gov/HPC. > > What is the status on the front door that was approved to be enclosed? > > Glad to answer any additional questions. > > Elicia > > Elicia Feasel > Historic Preservation Administrator > Department of Community Investment > (574) 235‐7672 > efeasel@southbendin.gov > City of South Bend > 227 W.
