STAFF REPORT
CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
Date: 03 July 2013
Application Number: 2013-0620
Property Location: 801 Park Avenue
Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Gabled-ell/1885
Property Owner: Paula Rast Harris
Landmark or District Designation: Chapin Park Local Historic District/Chapin Park National Register
District
Rating: Notable
DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: Two storey irregular plan, documented as a Gabled -ell in
the 2005 survey, a Stick Style on 1977 survey card and as a Late Gothic Revival on the 1987 survey card.
There are many intersecting gables of the roofline and although each survey card, including the 1932/49
Assessor's card notes asphalt shingles, the gabled roof material is actually asbestos tile. The roofline
employs a rake decorated fanciful non-structural barge board with pendills, the wide plain frieze, and
brackets. A low hip roof entry porch on the east side has a dentilled frieze board and square fluted
supports. There are 1/1 wood double hung windows with wood sill. A gable garage with vertical plank
siding is accessible from Manitou.
ALTERATIONS: No previous COAs were recorded in the file. Although the existing roof is asbestos
tile, asphalt roof ,vas named on the 1977 and 1987 survey cards and on the 19332/49 Assessor's card.
APPLICATION ITEMS: Tear off and re -roof home with asphalt shingles.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Owner has applied to replace the asbestos sections of the
roof with new asphalt architectural shingles. Work would include removing all layers and other roof
material, re -decking, installing drip edge, re -flash chimney, install ice and water shield, felt paper,
architectural shingles ridge cap shingles, can and ridge vent, and plumbing boots. A contractor has not
been selected at time of Staff Report and we do not have information as to disposing of asbestos. From
viewing photographs taken of the roof, the asbestos material seems to be in rough shape, including build
up of organic material, chipping/brittle shingles, shingles replaced with another roofing material (possibly
slate), missing vent caps and deteriorating or insufficient flashing. Wood rot is also a problem on some of
the comer trim.
Extracted from a Roof Report by Slatile:
I. Existing Conditions of Sloped Roof Areas:
1. The roof consists of multiple sections of 12/12 pitch gable roofs. Decking is -wood, open slat
design. Base roofing material is cedar shake. Second layer material is asbestos tile.
a. The asbestos tiles are past the serviceable life of the material. The tile are severely pitted and
worn. There is a buildup of moss and algae on the slates, further depredating the integrity of
the slates.
The current roof is far past its life and requires replacement. Replacement must include removing
the cedar shakes under the current slates.
The serviceable life of the over-all roofing on this house is less than 7 years before significant
water infiltration is noticed. Regular maintenance and repair could, however, extend the life of the
roof slightly.
STANI)AIZI)S AND (:tlll)EI.IN[,S: C"haiAn Park
11. Existing Structures
13. ROOFS AND ROOFING
Reef 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.
Retluiretl
The existing shape and type of materials of the roof shall be retained. All architectural features. which give the roof
its essential character, shell be retained, including donner windows, cupolas, cornices, brackets, chimneys, cresting
and weather vanes.
Rect niniended
The original shape and materials of the roof should be restored. Particular effort should be made to retain materials
such as slate, the 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 its closely as possible the original in
composition, size:, shape, color and texture. Clutters and downspouts are often a necessary adjunct in order to
prevent deterioration of the structure; they should be maintained whenever possible; or replaced with it style
comparable and suitable to the architectural period.
Prohibited
Nothing shall be done to change the essential cliaracter of the roofas viekved from a street by adding architccttiral
features or large unsightly fixtures, or by using materials inappropriate to the style of the house. The roof shall net
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,
S'T'AFF RECOiNT 1E?NI)ATION: As long as all of the architectural features, which give the roof its
essential character, including ..rake decorated fanciful non-structural barge board �vit}t pendills, the wide
plain frieze, and brackets", remain intact, Staff reconitnends approval of the asbestos roof replacement to
the proposed asphalt architectural shingle.

1. Existina Conditions of Sloped Roof Areas.
-
1. The roof consists of multiple sections of 12/12 pitch gable roofs. Decking is wood, open
slat design. Base roofing material is cedar shake. Second layer material is asbestos tile.
a. The asbestos tiles are past the serviceable life of the material. The tile are severely
pitted and worn. There is a buildup of moss and algae on the slates, further
depredating the integrity of the slates.
b. There is no step flashing at any of the wall terminations. Some terminations have
been caulked in the past; the caulking is cracked and delaminating.
c. Some of the pipe penetrations are missing proper flashings.
2. The front porch roof consists of an older 3 -tab asphalt shingle over a wood deck.
a. There are a few missing shingles. Misc. cracks and nail pops are noticeable.
3. The bay windows have asphalt roll roofing that appears to be in good condition.
4. The rear low slope roof consists of granulated modified bitumen roll roofing with
exposed roofing nail fasteners. The exposed nails are swing to rust and loosen.
5. The garage roof is installed with 3 )-tab asphalt shingles. This roof appears to be in good
condition.
6. The sheet metal valleys are in serviceable condition.
7. The gutters and downspouts appear to be in serviceable condition. However, the
mounting brackets are fastened on the outside of the roofing. This is an incorrect method
of attaching gutters, due to likely leaking at the nail fasteners.

ESTABLISHED 1924
ROOFING — MASONRY RESTORATION — SHEFT METAL
I L Existing Conditions of Other Low -Slope Areas.
1. The extreme top of the house appears to be an E1PDM membrane. I was not able to
access this roof area without special rigging, so I am not sure of its condition. Ilowever, I
examined this roof area from the attic and could see no signs of leaking in the recent past.
2. The low -slope roof at the one story section at the south-east comer of the house is a fully
adhered ENYM membrane.
a. The membrane itself appears in serviceable condition. However, there are inadequate
mechanical ffisteners securing the insulation board under the membrane. This makes
the roof susceptible to wind -lift.
b. The counter -flashing at the wall termination is incorrectly installed.
11I.Summary of Existing Conditions and Recommendations:
Although the current home owner states there are no leaks in the house, I cannot guarantee' there
will be no leaking, including water infiltration that is un -noticed, in the future. The current roof
is far past its life and requires replacement. Replacement must include removing the cedar
shakes under the current slates. The roof new roof will require new 1/2 inch CDX or plywood
decking over the existing open slat decking.
Because the -utters were incorrectly installed with straps over the existing rooting; material, the
tl> 0
gutters will also need replaced with new when the house is re -roofed.
0
The serviceable life of the over-all roofing on this house is less than 7 years before
significant water infiltration is noticed. Regular maintenance and repair could, however,
extend the life of the roof slightly.
An estimated cost of replacement of the asbestos tiled areas of the house including re -decking
and new gutters is 540,000 to $70,000. Note that this cost includes asbestos abatement as
required by federal law,.
I have included photographs of the roof on the following pages for reference.

Subject: doors and porch for 230 East Navarre Street
Hello Catherine,
Below is a picture of a Dutch Colonial which represents the type of porch posts and rails I feel is
appropriate for 230 East Navarre Street. The materials used will be treated lumber, treated post, treated
handrails, and treated square spindles. All will be of treated wood material and painted. Also exampled
in this picture is the railing in which I would like to place on the rooftop of the original sunroom'on. the
east side of the residence. The materials used would be the same as mentioned above.
Included in the attachment is the doors that I am proposing for the front storm door, the upper balcony
storm door and the rear storm door. The storm doors will be ofwoodcore material. The front and
balcony door will be frill view while the rear will be normal view (pictures in attachment).
Thank You,
Jerid Wireman

Hi Catherine,
I propose to put wood or vinyl storm windows on the home. I left the brochure sitting on my kitchen
counter and am back in New York, to pick up my dogs and drive back with them. I plan oil replacing The
storm windows in fall as I didn't see them to be on the code violation list. As far as the additon goes, I
ant sending some pictures regarding the windows in the addition and the windows missing in tile
addition, The windows are medal and in, tough condition. I would like to replace them with pane glass
windows that are divided (double hung) wood just as is oil the rest of the home (pane glass oil top and
solid glass oil bottom. The pictures I am sending you are fabled #1 and #2 that show ]low windows are
covered up in the addition. The door, missing door and deck oil the rear of the horse are pictures fabled
#3 all(] t#4. One picture (113) is from the interior of the home where vott can see the stairs leading up to
the; second level. At the first landing is the door. This door is the missing door to the boarded tip door
that is labled #4. The deck on the back should not be there as it was built to accommodate the door that
is too high in the air (see picture 45). The home at one time was inade into apartments and that is why
the deck was placed on the back so the upstairs renters could enter from there. As you see the boarded
tip door only gives access to the lower level and basement. This is the original back entry. I havealso
selected new garage doors. They will be either wood or vinyl depending oil the house being painted or
vinyl sided. The doors I believe will tic the house in more with the garage as at the top of the two doors
is pane glass windows. The storm windows too will either be vinyl"o;'r wood depending on the house
being painted or vinyl sided. I believe I gave Becky the brochure for the garage doors. I also have a
brochure for the storm doors that Becky will be dropping off at your office on Monday morning.
As far as the siding on the home goes, I hate it to say the least. I would like to tare it offand don't
understand the need to get permission to tare offaluminum siding that will then have to be replaced I)y
either painting or vinyl siding the home determined upon proper I Ilsl)ec ti ons.' 1. spoke with the
Anderson's this weekend and several other neighbors and they were quite pleasant with me. Mr.
Anderson had me look at a tree that is on each of our property line that obViOLISIV needs cut down
(picture labled 1116). 1 told him I have a meeting with Historic Preservation Commission oil July 15 and I
would see what I could do about the tree.
Also, for the front stoop restoration I am in need of sorne bricks that will match the foundation on the
home. Any ideas where to obtain them*?
Thanks Much,
Jcrid Wirenian

CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
Date: 3 July 2013
Application Number: COA#2013-0701A
Property Location: 1615 East Wayne Street
Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Tudor Revival/I929/II.R. Stapp for Whitcomb and Keller
Property Owner: Dr. Laurie Littlepage
Landmark or District Designation: East Wayne Street
Rating: Contributing
DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: The brickhouse is a 2'13 storeys with a rectangular plan and steep
gable roof with thin wood rake trim. The roof is slate and the shed roof dormer is also covered in slate. There is a
series of 5 diamond paned lead glass windows across the front. There are 8 light casement windows in the lower
and upper Ievels. There are brick chimneys at each end and half-timbering and stucco on the west side toward the
rear and the back gable.
ALTERATIONS: Fifteen windows were replaced with Eagle brand casement windows with COA#1997-0825.
The house slate roof was replaced Grand Manor CertainTeed with COA#2011-0404
APPLICATION ITEMS: We would like to fence in our yard for our two dogs and four year old son. We want a
privacy fence in the front. This will improve the view_ of our house from the street, since the back porch isn't that
attractive. We want to maintain our interactions with our neighbors, so we would like to have the black vinyl chain
link fence surrounding the yard on the other sides. Along the side of our house, we have two trees (apparently they
are elm trecs0 that the landscaping company suggests should be removed. The leaves are all chewed up, and the
trees are very close to our house, making a potential fire hazard with the roof line. If we remove these trees, then
we will be able to set the fence back farther from our neighbors' driveway. In the fence design, we have included a
gate between us and our neighbors, a gate in the back near al.l of the utility poles, and a gate near our back door.
Catherine Hostetler from the Historic Preservation Commission has visited our property, taken pictures and
discussed the project with me.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The homeowners are proposing to erect a 6' Western Picket
wooden privacy fence at the set back of the house to extend toward the west property line to obscure a screened in
porch towards the side rear yard. They would like to remove two deteriorating trees that are close to the house and
erect a 5' black vinyl coated chain link fence around the perimeter of the back yard to join up with existing fencing.
There will be a gate at the northwest corner. An additional chain link fence with a gate will be added behind the
rear set back of house and extend to the corner of the garage. Posts will be set in concrete. All per diagram and
materials submitted.
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: East Wavne Street:
Required
Major landscaping items, fencing, walkways, private yard lights, signs (house numbers) and benches which reflect
the property's history and development shall be retained. Dominant land contours shall be retained. Structures such
as gazebos, patio decks, fixed barbecue pits, swimming pools, tennis courts, greenhouses, new walls, fountains,
fixed garden furniture, trellises and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site
and the neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public vmlkway.
Recommended
New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs,
drawings and newspapers. New site work should be appropriate to existing surrounding site elements in scale, type
and appearance. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the
building's historic fabric should be removed. However, trees and plant materials that must be removed should be
immediately replaced by suitable flora. All highintensity security lights should be approved by the historic
Preservation Commission.
Prohibited
No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items, trees, fencing,
_ walkways, outbuildings or other elements before evaluating their importance to the property's history and
development. Front yard areas shall not be transformed into parking lots nor paved nor blacktopped. Front yard
areas shall not be fenced and fences shall not extend forward beyond the setback line of the house. The installation
of unsightly devices such as television reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where
they can be viewed from the public thoroughfare.
Not Recommended
Telephone or utility poles with high-intensity overhead lights should be installed so that they cannot be seen from
the thoroughfare,
A. DISTRICT ENVIORNMENT
Reconiniended
Whenever possible, the original features should be restored. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to
buildings, sidewalks or streets that are causing deterioration to those elements should be removed. As much natural
vegetation as possible should be preserved. If large shrubs become unsightly to the point of detracting from the
historic character of the house or site, they should be cut back and allowed to rejuvenate. Dead and diseased
material should be selectively removed. 'Frees and major landscaping elements that must be removed for one reason
or another should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. When replacement of utility poles or power supply
lines is necessary, consideration should be given to underground conduits or utility poles erected along rear roperty
lines. The curb height should be sufficient to maintain adequate drainage of the street. If older light fixtures are
taken down in the city, they should be reserved for use in the historic district. Light fixtures on top of the brick
pillars at the Eddy Street entryway should be replaced according to these standards.
Prohibited
Existing relationships of buildings and their environments shall not be destroyed through widening existing streets,
application of asphalt or other bituminous coverings, or by introducing new• streets or parking lots. Signs,
streetlights, benches, major landscaping items, fencing, walk -ways and paving materials which are out of scale or
inappropriate to the neighborhood may not be used. The introduction of heavy trucks or similar vehicles in the
District shall be prohibited.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval as the fencing project conforms to the standards for the East Wayne District. Staff
recommends removal of the trees as they are distressed and probably volunteer trees plus this species is not
recommended in the City's Tree listing.

CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
Date: 07.03.2013
Application Number: 2013-0701 B
Property Location: 549 Edgewater
Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Craftsman
Bungalow/1922/Whitcomb and Keller
Property Owner: David and Rosemarie :IIoipkemier
Landmark or District Designation: Edgewater Place :Local
Rating: Non-contributing in the survey (but not accurate)
DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: A one and a half storey Craftsman
Bungalow with a rectangular roof plan set upon a brick foundation with concrete over.
Exterior walls are redbrown brick. There is a front gabled dormer centered in the roof.
Windows are 0/1 wood double hung throughout with simple wood casings and brick sills.
The main entry porch is a continuous verandah along cast f front) fagade with brick
railings and stucco corner piers.
ALTERATIONS: According to documentation in the file, the Assessor card notes that
as of 1940 the front porch had been enclosed and the exterior walls, which had originally
been stucco, had been covered with brick veneer.
APPLICATION ITEMS: Remove non -original porch enclosure.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: A circa 1920s photograph shows the
property prior to the porch enclosure. Owners would like to return the original open
porch, including: removing windows, two layers of tile an the floor, and the lowered
ceiling. They will install pine tongue and groove floor boards and install stained
beadboard on the ceiling. Though center supports for the house roof were not original, a
structural element may need to be added when the addition walls are removed.
EDGEWATER STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:
II. 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 pre-
vented 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 mate-
rials when deteriorated beyond repair. Masonry structures shall he 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 soil 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 orifi inal 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 satne size and style as the original wood. Iiowever it trust be notal
that such material can contribute to the deterioration of the structure from moisture and im.'ects. 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
asplialt 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 miaterial 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 mottar of high Portland cement
content, which can often create a bund 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. faint should riot be removed from
masonry surfaces indiscriminately.
S'C'Al i�IZECON'l11ENDAI'ION: Staff recommends approval ofthe proposed project.

Catherine.
It looks like the porch project is going to be postponed for awhile. Is there a time constraint associated
with the approval of Historical Commission?
In terms of the specifies, our desire is to return to the original porch as much as possible. From what we
can tell, this will at least include removing the windows, the two layers of tile on the floor, and the
lowered ceiling. We anticipate replacing the pine TG floor boards and putting a stained bead board oil
the ceiling.'I'lic interior of the enclosed porch is entirely stucco, but we don't know how much ofthat is
original, ie was any of it brick, given the rest of the exterior. The enclosed porch also includes painted
trim and outlets, which need to be dealt with. A potential problem is the fact that though the center
supports for the house roof were riot there originally (on either side of the stone door), they may have
become structural over time and will need something to be there, part of the new porch. We don't
anything structural in the middle, but it may be required.
A more formal plan would need to be delayed until a later meeting wlien we will have a chance to do
niore investigation about Nvliat the original porch looked like. Is there a possibility that you could send us
a copy of the photograph that YOU fOlind? It might be helpful in figuring out the original look for the
interior porch wall.
We will be moving in and getting settled throtioli Labor Day in all likelihood, and will riot be able to
begin oil the porch specifically until after that.
Please let us know what you else you need in terms of gaining the Commission's approval.

HISTORIC PRESERVATION COM VHSSION
PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT
- July 15, 2013
Oh my! So many things going on in the past 30 days. Let us start with the warm
and fuzzies. 58 people attended the East Wayne Historic Walking Tour put on by the
Studebaker National Museum. This was a great tour and despite the rain, a lot of fun. I
appeared on Experience Michiana with Gordy Young on WNIT (PBS) to promote the
Restore Michiana Homeowner Series. We held our Restore Michiana Homeowner's
Workshop on Masonry this past Wednesday to a full house of 22 attendees. This was a
great turn out for a lecture and even ran over 45 minutes due to all the great questions and
discussion. We have decided to move the next workshop in August (the windows
workshop) to the former Salvation Army building on Carroll St in Taylor's Field. The
new owner of the property is looking at developing businesses and a community center at
the location. The windows there definitely need work and should provide enough to
allow two person teams to properly glaze a window during the allotted time.
Speaking of Taylor's Field, I am so very pleased to announce that the church on
the corner of S St Joseph and South Sts has been sold! The new owners are currently
trying to rectify the smoke damage from a minor winter -time fire and remediate the mold.
It is their intention to be able to have services in the church by the end of August!
Over the last two weeks this office has been handed over eighty 106 reviews.
These included subsidies for mortgages, lead paint, improvements, and of course,
demolitions. I have photographed and walked around each one of those houses. In my
opinion based upon an external inspection, there are houses that do not require demolition
at this time. More information will follow as it becomes available.
As we look toward the next month, I will be running the Windows Workshop, a
bus tour for Holy Cross Village, the Historic Districts Bus Tour, and a Downtown South
Bend Architectural tour for Studebaker National Museum in August as well.
While in the search for missing pieces of the Studebaker fountain, Steve Nemeth
informed me of some statues that were in storage in a garage located south of the North
Pumping Station at Leeper Park. Please see attached photograph.

STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:
II. EXISTING STRUCTURES
A. BUILDING MATERIALS
Original exterior wall materials in the District include brick, stucco, clapboard, wood shingles and masonry block. In some
instances, vinyl or aluminum siding has been applied over the original material.
Required
Original 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 including brick and stucco shall be cleaned

Recommended
Whenever possible, the original building materials should be restored. Metal or vinyl may be used as an alternative to
maintaining or replacing the original surface material when it resembles the original surface material. When used over wood
surfaces, this siding should be the same size and style as the original wood. Every effort should be made to retain the original
trim around windows, doors, cornices, gables, eaves and other architectural features. Ample ventilation must be afforded the
structure when aluminum or vinyl is to be installed in order to prevent increased "
deterioration of the structure from moisture and/or 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.
C. WINDOWS AND DOORS
Window and door frames are in most cases wood. Brick structures have stone sills and brick lintels. In some cases where
synthetic siding has been applied, window trim has been covered. Many structures in the district have aluminum storm windows.
Some houses retain wood framed storm windows.
Required
Original windows and doors including sash, lintels, sills, shutters, decorative glass, pediments, hoods and hardware shall be
retained or when deteriorated beyond repair, replaced with units and trim resembling the original.
Recommended
Wood frame storm windows and doors, painted to match the original, should be used but should not damage existing frames. If
new sash and doors are used, 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 re-used in place. New window and
door openings which would alter the scale and proportion of the building should not be introduced.
Inappropriate new window and door features, such as aluminum and insulating glass combinations that require removal of the
original windows and doors, shall not be installed.
Not Recommended
Awnings, hoods or fake shutters made of metal, vinyl or fiberglass should not be used if they would detract from the existing
character or appearance of the building.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the porch project and the installation of the railing system on
the sunroom roof. Staff recommends approval of the installation of the storm doors, garage doors and windows. Staff
recommends approval of the removal of the aluminum siding to determine the condition of the original siding; and its subsequent
treatment to be determined by Preservation Specialist. The tree stumps should also be removed.

APPLICATION ITEMS: We would like to fence in our yard for our two dogs and four year old son. We want a privacy fence
in the front. This will improve the view of our house from the street, since the back porch isn't that attractive. We want to
maintain our interactions with our neighbors, so we would like to have the black vinyl chain link fence surrounding the yard on
the other sides. Along the side of our house, we have two trees (apparently they are elm trees0 that the landscaping company
suggests should be removed. The leaves are all chewed up, and the trees are very close to our house, making a potential fire
hazard with the roof line. If we remove these trees, then we will be able to set the fence back farther from our neighbors'
driveway. In the fence design, we have included a gate between us and our neighbors, a gate in the back near all of the utility
poles, and a gate near our back door. Catherine Hostetler from the Historic Preservation Commission has visited our property,
taken pictures and discussed the project with me.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The homeowners are proposing to erect a 6' Western Picket wooden privacy
fence at the set back of the house to extend toward the west property line to obscure a screened in porch towards the side rear
yard. They would like to remove two deteriorating trees that are close to the house and erect a 5' black vinyl coated chain link
fence around the perimeter of the back yard to join up with existing fencing. There will be a gate at the northwest corner. An
additional chain link fence with a gate will be added behind the rear set back of house and extend.to the corner of the garage.
Posts will be set in concrete. All per diagram and materials submitted.
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: East Wavne Street:
Required
Major landscaping items, fencing, walkways, private yard lights, signs (house numbers) and benches which reflect the property's
history and development shall be retained. Dominant land contours shall be retained. Structures such as gazebos, patio decks,
fixed barbecue pits, swimming pools, tennis courts, greenhouses, new walls, fountains, fixed garden furniture, trellises and other
similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and the neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed
from a public walkway.
Recommended
New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs, drawings
and newspapers. New site work should be appropriate to existing surrounding site elements in scale, type and appearance. Plant
materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the building's historic fabric should be
removed. However, trees and plant materials that must be removed should be
immediately replaced by suitable flora. All highintensity security lights should be approved by the Historic Preservation
Commission.
Prohibited
No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items, trees, fencing, walkways,
outbuildings or other elements before evaluating their importance to the property's history and development. Front yard areas
shall not be transformed into parking lots nor paved nor blacktopped. Front yard areas shall not be fenced and fences shall not
extend forward beyond the setback line of the house. The installation of unsightly devices such as television reception dishes and
solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from the public thoroughfare.
Not Recommended
n
Telephone or utility poles with high-intensity overhead lights should be installed so that they cannot be seen from the
thoroughfare.
A. DISTRICT ENVIORNMENT
Recommended
Whenever possible, the original features should be restored. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to buildings, sidewalks
or streets that are causing deterioration to those elements should be removed. As much natural vegetation as possible should be
preserved. If large shrubs become unsightly to the point of detracting from the historic character of the house or site, they should
be cut back and allowed to rejuvenate. Dead and diseased material should be selectively removed. Trees and major landscaping
elements that must be removed for one reason or another should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. When replacement of
utility poles or power supply lines is necessary, consideration should be given to underground conduits or utility poles erected
along rear roperty lines. The curb height should be sufficient to maintain adequate drainage of the street. If older light fixtures
are taken down in the city, they should be reserved for use in the historic district. Light fixtures on top of the brick pillars at the
Eddy Street entryway should be replaced according to these standards.
Prohibited
Existing relationships of buildings and their environments shall not be destroyed through widening existing streets, application of
asphalt or other bituminous coverings, or by introducing new streets or parking lots. Signs, streetlights, benches, major
landscaping items, fencing, walkways and paving materials which are out of scale or inappropriate to the neighborhood may not
be used. The introduction of heavy trucks or similar vehicles in the District shall be prohibited.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval as the fencing project conforms to the standards for the East Wayne District. Staff recommends
removal of the trees as they are distressed and probably volunteer trees plus this species is not recommended in the City's Tree
listing.
