The enclosed wrap around porch is also aluminum sided and has aluminum storm windows. The windows are double hung, some are replacements and some have fixed aluminum awnings. There are wood steps leading to the front door with wood railings and decking. ALTERATIONS: The aluminum siding, awnings, storm windows fascia and soffit are replacements. The enclosure on the wrap around porch and the rear shed roofed deck are additions. The windows do not appear to be original. The front steps and lauding are not original. APPLICATION ITEMS: Change Bad Windows DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The owner has removed three wood double hung windows without a COA from 3 locations on this non-contributing house Although the wood windows appear to be in decent shape their sash system is the Tape Sash Balance system. This system was produced in the late 1930s and used sporadically in our area. It's production was discontinued at the beginning of WWII when the metal (bronze or brass) was required for the war effort STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: Window and door frames are in most cases wood and vary depending upon the style of the home. Many are double hung windows with wood trim and sills. Brick structures have stone sills and brick lintels. In some cases where aluminum siding has been applied, the window and door trim has been covered. About half of the structures in the district have aluminum storm windows; the other half have wood storm windows. Required Original windows and doors shall be retained including sashes, lintels, sills, shutters, decorative glass, pediments, hoods and hardware. When deteriorated beyond repair, they shall be replaced with units and trim resembling the original. Recommended Wood storm windows and doors painted or finished to match the original should be used but should not damage existing frames. If new sashes or doors are installed, the existing or original materials, design and hardware should be used. When metal storm doors are used, they should be painted, anodized or coated to match the existing. When awnings are used, they should be of canvas material. Prohibited Original doors, windows and hardware shall not be discarded when they can be restored and reused in place. New window and door openings, which would alter the scale and proportion of the building may not be introduced. Inappropriate new window and door features such as metal, vinyl or fiberglass awnings, hoods or aluminum insulating glass combinations that require removal of original windows and doors, shall not be installed. Not Recommended Fake shutters that would detract from the existing character or appearance of the building should not be used. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Although the sashes appear to be in good condition, the Staff has no first hand knowledge of what condition the frames were in before the replacement windows were installed. Since this house was built in 1894 and this sash system was introduced in the late 1930s, these windows are replacement windows along with just about everything else on the exterior of this house. Staff recommends the approval of the replacement of the replacement windows on this non-contributing structure. Staff also requests that the owner give the sashes to HPC for demonstration purposes.

On site visit to 516 S. St. Joseph about sidewalk replacement, re -pointing of foundation with Jose Ortiz of Ortiz Concrete. Avon Theatre was the hot topic for discussion. Historic Preservation Commission Meeting 7:00-8:30. 19 June Attended 7:30 am Rotary Board meeting at the LaSalle Grill. Presentation by Hugh Johnson for the Rotary Club's 2014 Centennial Project at Howard Park which is in the Howard Park national Register District. Prepared and mailed the 5 approved COAs from Monday's meeting. Endorsed six 106 reviews for grants. E-mailed Mayor's assistants to set up meeting concerning the Avon Theatre facade. Spoke at length with Aaron Perri of DTSB concerning the salvaging/saving of the Avon fagade; he liked my idea of using the facade as an entrance to patio dining for Ciao's and using the rest for parking. The facade could be supported by the side walls, with the south being gradually lowered as a buttress and bringing the rear wall in further if needed.. Began listing of Code issues in historic districts and sent to Steve and Elicia for discussion on Friday at 11:00. Briefly attended the Pitch Your Plan at the State Theatre. Followed up with Liz Maradik on the inquiry from HPC Commissioners about South Bend being in the top 10 for delinquencies in sub prime mortgages. She will e-mail me the source and parameters. Participated in the BSSB meeting at 5:30 p.m. at the Conservatories; presented the Treasurer's Report. 20 June Spoke with Katherine Roos in the Mayor's Office. She is THE contact for South Bend's built environment and set up a meeting for Tuesday, 29 June at 11:30 on the 14 floor. Returned Kris Benninghoff of the SBT (235 6345) call and inquiry about the Avon Theatre; gave her the history of the site from the survey card. Sent information on Edgewater to Banko Property Management per Gina's request. Began the Review of St. Pat's Park National Register Nomination. Meeting with Todd and Elicia about the Window Video. Suggested a manual in Spanish since many of the new owners in Taylor's Field and Chapin are Mexican. Ryan Dvorak called about the Land Bank legislation. Emails had bounced back when County server crashed. Also he inquired about the Avon and said that he would help if needed. 21 June Attended Mayor's Economic Summit featuring HPC's former legal counsel, Shawn Peterson. Very informative sessions. Great networking with public and private sector people. Scott Ford introduced the new configuration proposed for the Department of Community Investment FNA Community and Economic Development. 22 June Attended Ground Breaking for the River Race Town Houses. Met architect Velvet Canada; these town houses are being geared for individuals with incomes ranging between 36,000.00-42,000.00 to encourage people who work downtown to live downtown. Spoke with Joe Kernan and congratulated him on being one of the first owners to move in this year. Met with intern Michelle Russoneillo; possible post card project in County gave her a brief tour of Downtown South Bend. 25 June Read national Register Nomination for Farm at St. Pat's Park. Arranged to tour both barns and settings with Sarah and Shelley of Parks along with Elicia and Michelle. The second level of the red barn was still filthy with bat guano and inhabited. Participated in Common Council Committee meetings. During the Public Works and Property Vacation Committee Valerie Schey commented that she has a neighborhood problem because she lives in an historic district and many neighbors want the vacant and deteriorating 1105 E. Wayne / 230 S. Eddy demolished. (The owner of record is still Arnett Echo and the taxes are current.) Kathy Cekanski-Farrand directed her to address her questions to me. I explained that a COA would need to be approved for demolition by the Commission and that over the years, deteriorated and neglected houses have been demolished in historic districts. I also spoke against a variance on Parry Street to allow for an auto repair business of be allowed behind a home within a block of 415 Parry, a landmarked home, at the Zoning and Annexation Committee. The Committee was amenable to the spot zoning for this repair shop apparently because the owner lived there over 30 years and his son wants the shop (if it didn't succeed, his mother may use it to make tamales and tacos) and the 2008 East Bank Village Plan has not been adopted by the Council. The issues was continued and a meeting on Friday, 29 June at 1:00 was scheduled to discuss this matter with all parties concerned. 26 June Finally completed the coordination with DTSB, HPC, Katherine Roos, and the Library for a meeting on Wednesday at 10:00 to discuss the Avon Theatre. Complied and turned in fee and revenue estimates for balance to 2012 and 2013 to the Auditor's Office.

Attended the Vacant and Abandoned Housing meeting at Kennedy School between 5:30 and 7:30. The emphasis was on Code enforcement and actually suggested follow up reports on completed work and productive uses for demo sites; Data -how it is used to feed Code; Land Banking and Resources/Support for Rehab and Reuse of Vacant and Abandoned Housing or sites. Need to improve acquisition process of vacant neighborhood properties; suggested involving local Churches and Neighborhood groups and once an area was rehabbed to get bus lines to it. 27 June Meeting with Debra Futa, Bruce Burnett, David Woodcox of the SJC Library; Tamara Nichols -Smith and Aaron Perri of DTSB; Katherine Roos of the Mayor's Office and Tim Klusczinski at the Library concerning saving the Avon Theatre facade that they Library would like to have demolished before Ciao's opens up in August with a seven year lease from the Library. Katherine discussed the economics of $4,000.00 per space for surface parking versus a pocket park for less money for the area behind the Avon faced. Tamara wanted to know the cost difference between mothballing and demolition; perhaps the City would look at possibly funding the difference. Aaron suggested using parking structures to which Debra said that employees are afraid of them and their amenities leave 2 a lot to be desired. Aaron suggested working out something with inexpensive day time parking behind the Bankruptcy Court. Attended the Vacant and Abandoned Housing Task force team meeting and met with Mayor Pete, Katherine Roos and Liz Maradik to tell about Don Rypkema's work and that I would send a link to his publications.

Economic Development was also there along with David Hurley. Also attended a meeting with Councilman Oliver Davis about the spot zoning on Parry Street with Christa Nayder (Area Plan) and Scott Ford ( new Director for Comm. &Econ. Devel.). Suggested to Mr. Davis that length of residence not be used as a criteria for all the Council to allow spot zoning as it would cause future problems for the Council. Suggested that the rationale be that the Robert Henry Company already has zoning for light industrial which is right behind the proposed garage site. 2 July Worked on the Avon Theatre communications.

CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS 1. 802 Leland COA#2012-0613 Chapin Park Representation by Ryan Anderson, owner STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: 3 July 1012 Application Number: 2012-0613 Property Location: 802 Leland Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Gabled-ell/1894 Property Owner: Ryan Andersen dba RYNO Landmark or District Designation: Chapin Park Rating: Non- Contributing DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: The house is a one and a half storey frame set upon a T- Plan foundation It has aluminum siding and a gabled roof with asphalt shingles and aluminum soffits and fascia. The enclosed wrap around porch is also aluminum sided and has aluminum storm windows. The windows are double hung, some are replacements and some have fixed aluminum awnings. There are wood steps leading to the front door with wood railings and decking. ALTERATIONS: The aluminum siding, awnings, storm windows fascia and soffit are replacements. The enclosure on the wrap around porch and the rear shed roofed deck are additions. The windows do not appear to be original. The front steps and landing are not original. APPLICATION ITEMS: Change Bad Windows DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The owner has removed three wood double hung windows without a COA from 3 locations on this non-contributing house Although the wood windows appear to be in decent shape their sash system is the Tape Sash Balance system. This system was produced in the late 1930s and used sporadically in our area. It's production was discontinued at the beginning of WWII when the metal (bronze or brass) was required for the war effort STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: Window and door frames are in most cases wood and vary depending upon the style of the home. Many are double hung windows with wood trim and sills. Brick structures have stone sills and brick lintels. In some cases where aluminum siding has been applied, the window and door trim has been covered. About half of the structures in the district have aluminum storm windows; the other half have wood storm windows. Required Original windows and doors shall be retained including sashes, lintels, sills, shutters, decorative glass, pediments, hoods and hardware. When deteriorated beyond repair, they shall be replaced with units and trim resembling the original. Recommended Wood storm windows and doors painted or finished to match the original should be used but should not damage existing frames. If new sashes or doors are installed, the existing or original materials, design and hardware should be used. When metal storm doors are used, they should be painted, anodized or coated to match the existing. When awnings are used, they should be of canvas material. Prohibited Original doors, windows and hardware shall not be discarded when they can be restored and reused in place. New window and door openings, which would alter the scale and proportion of the building may not be introduced. Inappropriate new window and door features such as metal, vinyl or fiberglass awnings, hoods or aluminum insulating glass combinations that require removal of original windows and doors, shall not be installed. Not Recommended Fake shutters that would detract from the existing character or appearance of the building should not be used. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Although the sashes appear to be in good condition, the Staff has no first hand knowledge of what condition the frames were in before the replacement windows were installed. Since this house was built in 1894 and this sash system was introduced in the late 1930s, these windows are replacement windows along with just about everything else on the exterior of this house. Staff recommends the approval of the replacement of the replacement windows on this non- contributing structure. Staff also requests that the owner give the sashes to HPC for demonstration purposes. On a motion by Dave Steinhauer with a second by Kevin Buccellato to approve application as submitted. Vote: 54 Timothy Klusczinski (nay) for performing work without a building permit and without a COA. Project is not keeping with the Standards & Guidelines for the District.

ROOFS AND ROOFING Roof shapes in the district encompass all the various designs found in residential structures: hipped, gabled, gambrel, flat and combinations of these. Roofs are covered with a variety of materials such as asphalt, asbestos, wood and slate shingles as well as clay tiles. Residences in most cases have wood fascias with gutters and downspouts. The fascias of some vinyl- and aluminum - sided houses are covered with the same materials. Required The existing shape and type of materials of the roof shall be retained. All architectural features, which give the roof its essential character, shall be retained, including dormer windows, cupolas, cornices, brackets, chimneys, cresting and weather vanes. Recommended The original shape and materials of the roof should be restored. Particular effort should be made to retain materials such as slate, tile and other unique materials not commonly found in new construction. Roof covering which is deteriorated beyond repair should be replaced with new material that matches as closely as possible the original in composition, size, shape, color and texture. Gutters and downspouts are often a necessary adjunct in order to prevent deterioration of the structure; they should be maintained whenever possible or replaced with a style comparable and suitable to the architectural period. Prohibited Nothing shall be done to change the essential character of the roof as viewed from a street by adding architectural features or large unsightly fixtures, or by using materials inappropriate to the style of the house. The roof shall not be stripped of architectural features important to its character. Not Recommended Overhanging eaves, soffit, brackets and gables should not be covered or enclosed when adding siding to a building. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval as the project conforms to the Standards and Guidelines for the district.

Existing Structures A. BUILDING MATERIALS Original exterior wall materials in the District range from brick, clapboard, shingles, and masonry block to aluminum siding. In the majority of the cases the aluminum siding has been applied over the original clapboard. There are some masonry commercial buildings on Lincolnway. Required Existing exterior building materials shall be retained. Deterioration of wood materials shall be prevented through repair., cleaning, and painting. The existing architectural detail around windows, porches, doors, and eaves should be retained or replaced by replicas of the same design and materials when deteriorated beyond repair. Masonry structures shall be maintained, tuckpointed and properly cleaned when necessary. Masonry shall be cleaned only when necessary to halt deterioration or to remove stains, and shall be done with the gentlest method possible, such as low pressure water and soft natural bristle brushes. Stucco surfaces shall be maintained by cleaning and repainted when necessary. When repairing stucco a stucco mixture shall be used. Recommended Whenever possible, the original building materials should be restored. Aluminum or vinyl siding may be used when it is the only feasible alternative to maintaining the original surface material. When used over wood surfaces, this siding should be the same size and style as the original wood. However it must be noted that such material can contribute to the deterioration of the structure from moisture and insects. Mortar joints should be repointed only when there is evidence of moisture problems or when sufficient mortar is missing to allow water to stand in the mortar joint. Existing mortar shall be duplicated in composition, color, texture, joint size, method of application, and joint profile. Prohibited Wood siding shall not be resurfaced with new material, such as artificial stone, brick veneer, asbestos or asphalt shingles, which is inappropriate or was unavailable when the building was constructed. Sandblasting or the use of harsh detergents shall not be used on masonry or stucco. This method of cleaning erodes the surface material and accelerates deterioration. Not Recommended Waterproof or water repellent coatings or surface consolidation treatments should not be used unless required to solve a specific problem that has been studied and identified. Coatings are frequently unnecessary, expensive, and can accelerate deterioration of the masonry. Mortar joints which do not need repointing should not be. Repointing should not be done with mortar of high Portland cement content, which can often create a bond that is stronger than the building materials. This can cause deterioration as a result of differing coefficient of expansion and the differing porosity of the material and the mortar, which can result in serious damage to adjacent brick. Paint should not be removed from masonry surfaces indiscriminately. B. ROOFS AND ROOFING Roof shapes in the district vary from hip and gable to gambrel. All are covered with asphalt shingles. Eaves in most cases, have wood facias with gutters and downspouts. Some aluminum sided houses have aluminum covered facias. Required The existing shape and materials of the roof shall be retained. All architectural features which give the roof its essential character, such as dormer windows, cornices, brackets and weather vanes, shall be retained. Recommended Whenever possible, the original shape and materials of the roof shall be restored. Particular effort should be made to retain materials such as slate, tile and other unique materials not commonly found in new construction. Roof covering which is deteriorated beyond repair should be replaced with new material that matches as closely as possible the existing or original in composition, size, shape, color, and texture. on Prohibited Nothing shall be done to change the essential character of the roof by adding architectural features or roofing materials inappropriate to the style of the house. The roof shall not be stripped of architectural features important to its character. Not Recommended If aluminum or vinyl siding is added to a building, overhanging eaves and gables should not be covered or enclosed. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Because the existing wood soffit is deteriorated beyond repair, owner has noted that the proposed material(s) is the only feasible alternative. Staff recommends proposed work as it conforms to the Standards and Guidelines for the Edgewater Place Local Historic District. On a motion by Kevin Buccellato with a second by Jerry Niezgodski to approve application with the condition that materials be approved by the HPC Staff to match the existing materials in aesthetics.
