A late night fire had occurred at the house on March 27, 2015. Luckily the owner, his wife, and five children were awoken by a neighbor whom had just arrived home. The official cause is still unknown, but the damage is extensive. The rear of the house in particular sustained heat high enough to blow out the rear windows and melt the front door off of the dishwasher in the kitchen. When I ascended the structure to the third floor, I determined the third floor decking unable to hold my weight. We opted not to go any higher but photographed the damaged instead. There is excessive char and smoke damage throughout. The fire actually moved across the third floor towards the front of the house, as evident by photographs showing the burn marks on the front half circle window on the third floor. Water damage from the fire crews and goes all through to the first floor and the elements are entering through the holes in the roof. The owner informed me that the estimates to repair the house are more than the insurance was going to award them. I do not feel that this house is repairable within their budget and timeline. I also feel that some of the material towards the front of the house may be salvage- able, but done properly and will still need a great deal of cleaning in order to remove the soot and odor.

Navarre Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Dutch Colonial Revival/1928 Property Owner: Jerid Wireman Landmark or District Designation: River Bend Rating: Omitted in the 2005 Survey DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: This is a 2 storey house with a rectangular plan set upon a brick foundation. The original clapboards have been restored and painted. The gambrel roof has almost full length front and back shed dormers that are all covered with asphalt shingles. The windows are 6/1 double hung on the house and sunroom and multi pane quarter rounds in the attic storey. There is a small front porch that has a gable roof overhang with wood supports and railings. There is a two car jerkin head roof garage on a concrete foundation. ALTERATIONS: The front porch has been altered in that the brick wing walls noted in the 1995 survey card are missing. The windows are replacement windows (2014-0530). The roof is a replacement. APPLICATION ITEMS: Fence front and rear yard, replace sidewalks, replace driveway, landscape hill/slope; add trellis roof, landscape front with hedges, trees, etc. Also see attached proposal. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: #1. The removal of the sidewalk and steps on the East side were approved with COA 3014-0530. The homeowner proposes to terrace the slope in his front yard into two levels using brown brick pavers and infilling with grass or sod. He proposes to enclose the entire front yard with a 3 foot wire livestock fence in wood frames set between wood posts; install a solid wood gate across the front walkway constructed out of the same material as the back yard fence. #2. Replace concrete front walkway leading to porch and porch steps with brown brick pavers. In-kind replacement of city sidewalk and front curb. #3 Replace concrete driveway with grass, four sections of concrete strips leading from alley to garage and boarder with a single row of brown brick pavers with grass planted between the concrete strips. #4. Install a trellis (pergola style) roof between house and garage and install new white vinyl garage doors with windows to compliment the window treatment of the house. #5 Install a 6 foot privacy fence from the side of the sunroom to completely enclose the rear yard. The fence will be 3/4s wood with the remaining height composed of the livestock wire. A gate constructed of livestock wire in a wood frame would be installed in between the sun porch and the privacy fence. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: B. BUILDING SITES LANDSCAPING9 & ACCESSORIES Individual properties in the district are characterized by a house located near the front of each lot, with a small lawn in front and a larger lawn to the rear of the property. Those properties facing the river on Riverside Drive generally have sloping front lawns and flat back yards. The majority of structures have been erected on a single lot. Many of the properties include a garage located at the rear of the property accessed from unpaved alleys running behind the property. Most properties have trees, shrubbery and/or hedges. All houses conform to the uniform set -back within each block. The district has a compact layout. Large homes are constructed on small lots while smaller homes, such as those on Hammond Place, are constructed on narrow, deep lots. Little of the backyard areas or rear first stories of these homes is visible from the thoroughfare. In recognition of this, greater latitude will be allowed in the application of the adopted standards in the rear of the properties, in order to accommodate the individual preferences of the property �7 owners in the treatment of these backyard areas. No approval will be necessary for changes in lawn, shrubs, walkways or semi-permanent surface changes in the rear of houses. Staff approval would be required for semi-permanent structures such as gazebos, but not for play equipment such as swing sets, sand -boxes, etc. Required Plants, trees, fencing, walkways, private yard lights, signs (house numbers) and benches which reflect the properties' history and development shall be retained. 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. Accessory structures such as decks, gazebos, fountains, or small outbuildings should be appropriate to surrounding site elements in scale, type and appearance. Plant materials in close proximity to the buildings and which are causing deterioration to the building's historic fabric should be removed and replaced by more suitable flora as approved by the Historic Preservation Commission. Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing trees, fencing, walkways, outbuildings or other site 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, or fences shall not extend forward beyond the setback line of die property. Telephone or utility poles with high intensity overhead lights should be installed so that they cannot be seen from the thoroughfare. The installation of unsightly, large devices such as television satellite dishes shall not be permitted in areas STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the projects with the exception of the sidewalk and curb replacement that must be approved by Public Works first. When Public Works approves the in-kind replacement of the curb and sidewalk then Staff will issue a Routine Maintenance Exclusion Certificate. Catherine D.

There is a picture window in the rear wall in the first storey. There is an attached garage with a gabled roof and dormer. The entire exterior is stucco with a half brick wall. There is an additional entrance on the north side of the house toward the front with a flat roof supported by a wrought iron railing system. The front door is solid wood. ALTERATIONS: The picture window in the rear and the glass block are not original to the house. The additional side entrance with flat porch roof and wrought iron were later additions as well.

Owner proposes to extend the driveway by adding a semi -circular driveway extension off the main straight drive — all material will be concrete to match existing. To accommodate the extension, three evergreen trees must be removed. Of the evergreen trees, one of the trees appears to be diseased or damaged by lightening and all three trees are cabled together. Just behind the new driveway installation owner proposes to add a flat patio using flagstone with a built-in low height fire pit of same material, see photo for flagstone.example. Owner proposes adding a new 4.' wrought iron fence to west front lawn that will extend back on the north lawn, see plan. The fence has spaces between the pickets but will provide additional security to the property. There will be no fence installed on the East Wayne Street side. The house across East Wayne Street also has a fence of this type installed on the Eddy Street frontage. Also proposed are the installation of several new trees and flowering bushes. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: East Wayne Street Local Historic District I. THE ENVIRONMENT A. THE DISTRICT ENVIRONMENT The district is characterized by its proximity to downtown South Bend. It encompasses several blocks of East Wayne Street, North and South, from Eddy Street east to Greenlawn and the south side of Jefferson Boulevard from Eddy Street east to Sunnyside Avenue. The district is bounded on the north by Jefferson Boulevard from Eddy Street to Sunnyside Avenue and then by the north property lines of the Wayne Street properties to Greenlawn. The south boundary is the southern right of way of the alley or the southern property lines of East Wayne Street, South. Unique features of the neighborhood include the island of homes between East Wayne Street North and East Wayne Street South, the parks at each end of the island, and the brick pillars at the entrance way (Eddy Street) to the subdivision with signage reading "Whitcomb and Keller's Sunnymede." Definition - the term "trees" in the following standards shall be defined as follows: Shade trees - twelve (12) inches in diameter. Ornamental trees - four (4) inches in diameter or fifteen (15) feet in height. Evergreen trees - eight (8) inches in diameter or fifteen (15) feet in height. Any removal or planting of trees which are of the sizes indicated above or larger shall be reviewed by the Historic Preservation Commission. Required Distinctive existing features such as brick entry pillars, parks, gardens, streetlights, fences, signs, walkways, streets and building setbacks shall be retained. Major landscaping items, fencing, walkways, streetlights, signs and benches shall be compatible with the character of the neighborhood in size, scale, material and color. Street lighting should be maintained at levels recommended by the Illuminating Engineering Society. Light sources must have spectral distribution in all color ranges. Older light fixtures and supporting posts must be similar in proportion, scale, size, shape, style, and appearance to the existing historic lamps. Streetlights shall be placed so that adequate illumination is afforded all sections of public sidewalks (refer to Appendix A). 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 property 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. Not Recommended `1 High-intensity overhead streetlights should not be used. B. BUILDING SITE, LANDSCAPING AND ACCESSORIES Individual properties in the district are characterized by a house located in the center of a flat lawn, often divided by a walk leading to the front entrance. Several of the residences are sited on two or more building lots; however, the preponderance of the homes have been erected on a single lot. Most of the properties include a double garage, usually located at the rear of the property. The majority of garages are accessed from straight driveways leading from the main thoroughfare, while a few are accessed from the alley. There are also a few homes with a covered carport located at the rear of the property, as well as a few with circular driveways. Driveway and sidewalk materials include concrete, asphalt and brick. All of the properties have trees and most have trimmed shrubbery and/or hedges. Most of the houses conform to a uniform setback line within each block 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 high intensity 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. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval as the proposed changes are compatible with the neighborhood and will enhance the properly appearance and security.

ALTERATIONS: The roof was replaced in 2008 (COA#2008-0317) APPLICATION ITEMS: Installation of a cedar picket fence enclosing front yard—see attached documents for details. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The homeowner proposes to enclose the front yard with a 3.5' white cedar Gothic wood fence with a gate at the walkway to the front door. The posts will be pressure treated lumber set in concrete. All per diagrams, photos and product information submitted. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: B. BUILDING SITE, LANDSCAPING & ACCESSORIES This section focuses on individual properties and amenities. Building sites tend to be irregularly shaped, of varying topography and with different setbacks with regard to plots. Alleys are generally behind houses. Landscape accessories like fences are unique to each structure. Chapin Place presents a unique situation within the district. Applications from properties that have property lines on Chapin Place will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Required Fencing, walkways, outbuildings, private yard lights, signs (i.e. house numbers) and benches (visible from the street) as well as trees located in a yard or tree lawn which reflect the property's history and development shall be retained. A tree located in such areas shall only be removed if the removal is required due to storm damage, disease, threatened damage to a structure or for such other reason acceptable to the Historic Preservation Commission. Storm damaged or diseased trees should then be replaced with an approved species at the same or approximate location wherever possible. Fencing visible from the street in front of the structure shall be open (meaning spaces between the pickets) and consistent with the historic character of a structure enclosed. 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 also be appropriate to existing surrounding site elements in scale, type and appearance. Front yard areas should remain open. (See above for information regarding fences.) Trees in close proximity to a building may cause structural damage. Owners are encouraged to remove these trees and replace (or replant) them at a more appropriate location as soon as planting season permits and upon approval of a C of A. Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing 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, nor enclosed by solid fences, chain link, nor industrial/commercial style fences. The installation of unsightly large devices, such as television satellite dishes, skylights or solar panels, shall not be permitted in areas where they detract from the architecture of a building, are intrusive to the public view of the building or are highly visibly from a public street, or ruled inappropriate after Commission review. Utility poles with high-intensity overhead lights should be installed so that they cannot be seen from a street. The Commission will evaluate all installations as well as any potential exceptions resulting from special circumstances, before granting a C of A. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the project as it follows the guidelines for the Chapin Park District. Catherine D.

April 29111, 2015 Carl Gillett 830 Park Avenue 'Znut-b Tlpr.A IN PROPOSAL SUMMARY. I am applying to install a wooden picket fence enclosing the front yard of 830 Park Avenue. I have a six year old child and I want my son and his friends to be able to play safely in the front yard, since the road and shared drivi-way.arn -nexti-n,tht,.front vord and the nrnnprt-v hoc no-arns--, nr aardnn in the - rear. (There is a deck at the side and the area to the rear of the house is owned by 828 Park.) PROJECT DIMENSIONS. The proposed picket fence would fully enclose the front -ard shown in DOC -1 and 2 as outlined in the enclosed djap-ram DOC -3. There would be a gate where the present path to the front door meets the side walk, roughly half -way along the frontage to the road, made from the same panels used for the fence. The rough dimensions of the fence are approximately as follows: 40' running from the existing panel fence separating 830 from 828 Park running to the sidewalk, then running the full length of the front of the property (including the gate) and then from the sidewalk along the driveway shared with 834 Park to the existing raised bed at the front of the house. (The gap between the house and fence in the raised bed will be filled with thorny shrubs and other plants.) MA ' TERIALS. The materials to be used are 8 feet long cedar gothic fence panels, 31/z feet in. height, (see DOC -4 and DOC -5) of the same type used at 424 Manitou and 413 Navarre shown in the enclosed photos F and G. The posts for the proposed fence will be pressure treated lumber reaching 31/2 feet to the top rail of the fence and supported with a concrete base hidden beneath the dirt. (In the same style as the existing fences in photos G and F.) FENCES AT NEARBY PROPERTIES. As the enclosed photos A-E document, there are numerous houses with fences, either picket or metal, enclosing their front yards on Park Avenue. Nearby properties are (the photos from Google still represent the present fences): 844 Park Avenue (picket fence) - photo A 846 Park Avenue (picket fence) - photo B 7338 Park Avenue (picket fence) - photo C' 838 Park Avenue (iron fence) - photo D 819 -Park Avenue [Iron fence)j - photo E CHAPIN PARK PROPERTIES WITH EXISTING FENCES USING PROPOSED PANELS. Properties in the Chapin Park HPC also already use the proposed style of gothic cedar picket fence to enclose their yards. Two of these are: 424 Manitou PI (fence using -same fence panels as those proposed) - photo F 413 Navarre (fence using same fence panels as those proposed) - photo G ,$� a RI ;t� i j i ; � j I � , `r � �'y � •//� '`x A y 17 14 r Qf1 IN ilkr (( •'.. i # ! ay. 1 '• a l fir` n Cj. - � aid x = r`•„� ,+ '� Al t +T IF- �'pA'f' T. - • z`:. i - S' - h._ ^y+`kai'viyf�F � zL3 l i r.. gp Eari 0, p. .y >.Y• -t ..s+-+.�,ma- ,*r :... -_ ,,��'-1 -�wS4 ! fes- � ice';. .. �.' ``, was �. -`- - - -- -���., {zt-^v�:`�,"�''.�`.R ��€if•�,�"�� a - .a �V+ ea - - ' � ��}.1�j/! r'f�%r;• r i i! / f'Y r ��� s - - -� - -{(C �-.. 4 �tr� :��i ll„ t'r-}{d/.F"ry.. moi•.` -:_ es - Y5 AM i izz t }( 1 ''uItIMIUM it qt1g, 3l cxtir- 'i7�4y-� S.• �S• lyj4 .{t- 3 !i l�d ��.5.'�f•�..�$i�- lie" 830 Park Ave - Google Maps 5/4/15, 11:24 AM T --C— CA— Le- Ac y Shop White Cedar Gothic Wood Fence Panel (Common: 4 -ft x 8 -ft; Actual: 3.5 -ft x 8 -ft) at Lowes.com Y.W Stor2: Your Store: South Bend, IN White Cedar Gothic Wood Fence Panel (Common: 4 -ft x 8 -ft; Actual: 3.5 -ft x 8 -ft) Item #:156541 1 Model #:160274 Be the first to $23.44 o_i ®email =ription White Cedar Gothic Wood Fence Panel (Common: 4 -ft x 8 -ft; Actual: 3.5 -ft x 8 -ft) • Preassembted for easy installation • Naturally resistant to rot and decay e Double -nailed pickets Specifications Type Panel Pressure Treated No Species White Pre -stained _.._...._.... .__......

See attached to email. nea4+� J 'bi = 9' April 13, 2015 This morning at 10 am I visited the local landmark located at 60717 Locust Rd. met with the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Krakowski and their contractor Bill Carson of WH Carson and Associates. I was at the property last week but was unable to get inside to inspect the condition of the third floor windows. The two windows located at the front of the house at the dormer were removed and pulled for me to look at. The sashes are prairie style and are truly beyond repair as the bottom rails and corners of the rails are simply rotten away and sponge. I entered the house and went to the third floor to the south elevation and the 3 double hung bank of windows. These windows are wood, but are not the prairie style that is present throughout the house and the third floor in particular. The framework was completely rotted out and deteriorated to the point that the sashes were able to be moved in and out of the frame with ease. The sashes themselves had deterioration along the bottom and corners. At any rate, the framework will need to be replaced especially the areas of the weight pockets between the sashes are completely rotted and pitted by water. I also wanted to see the area where the rear chimney had been located prior to its collapse. Photographs will show that the framework around the roof extrusion are charred and rotted out. The damage continues from third to second floor as the water ran down to the first floor. I found it hard to believe originally that the chimney collapsed but after seeing the damage on the framework it is plausible that it collapsed once the flashing and roofing material was removed. The contractor was able to salvage the bricks to be used on other repair areas around the house. The owners also asked about removing the handicap ramp and re -installing a stoop close to the original one that the remaining footprint suggests to allow more room for vehicles through the portico. The owners also inquired about replacing a non -original window located at the rear of the house with a larger window. The area where this is located was in fact part of the porch that was later enclosed and adapted into living space. The owner is currently accepting bids for the windows and the stoop under the portico. When they have their bids together, they will complete their application appropriately. I informed them that although the rear chimney is gone, there will still need to be a COA application completed and applied for after -the -fact in order to complete the file.

HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT May 18, 2015 Hello Commission! So many things going on! Let's start with old business first: We had a great experience at the State Preservation Conference, as always it is nice to have some affirmation that we are on the right track and gain some better tools to help fight the good fight. I attended a one day class on Section 106 review one day before the conference as that is an area that we are often involved in. My presentation was at a separate location but was still well attended. For those of you who did not see it, the "historic" monopoly board was completed in 6 hours and is located at Jefferson and Michigan Sts. It is very cool and was well received. I was.there the entire night by the way. Pictures on are Facebook and HPC was mentioned frequently. The Historic South Bend City Cemetery tour went very well as we still had 80 folks brave the weather and enjoy the tour and the reenactors! Hats off to Carol for all of her hard work and of course Elicia for being the champion of this project! Our next event at the Cemetery will be June 20th and will cover symbolism and the first of three hands- on tombstone cleaning workshops. The base of the Building South Bend: 1929 37D Model is built! Thanks to two union carpenters, James and Gary Weldy for the assistance, expertise, and use of a really nice workshop. I am still doing some finishing and painting work but should have it complete by Wednesday morning. This will be apart of the SB150 weekend and I know that YOU our commissioners will be in touch with Elicia to work some of those TINY 2 - hour shifts. Thank you in advance. Last week Catherine and I drove past the Old Country Bake Shop on US 31 South. The condition of the structure has worsened and this subject needs to be re -visited and perhaps utilize our newest legal counsel as how we can proceed in this matter. New Business: I will be proceeding with the cemetery workshops and a power tools workshop in September that will be dealing with molding and mitered cuts. Everyone should walk away with a frame! I met with Michelle Fitzgerald from Make South Bend which is a wonderful shop in River Park that rents workshop space and has classes daily. We are hoping to partner with Michelle for that event. We have not done much in River Park and we are overdue. I am attending the East Bank/Howard Park neighborhood meeting today to hear from city officials about SB150, the 1000 homes initiative, and Chris Stackowicz's newest public art project. We hope to see everyone at the Birthday Party and be sure to stop by and see us!

BUILDING SITE, LANDSCAPING, & ACCESSORIES Individual properties in the district are characterized by a house located near the front of each lot, with a small lawn in front and a larger lawn to the rear of the property. Those properties facing the river on Riverside Drive generally have sloping front lawns and flat back yards. The majority of structures have been erected on a single lot. Many of the properties include a garage located at the rear of the property accessed from unpaved alleys running behind the property. Most properties have trees, shrubbery and/or hedges. All houses conform to the uniform set -back within each block. The district has a compact layout. Large homes are constructed on small lots while smaller homes, such as those on Hammond Place, are constructed on narrow, deep lots. Little of the backyard areas or rear first stories of these homes is visible from the thoroughfare. In recognition of this, greater latitude will be allowed in the application of the adopted standards in the rear of the properties, in order to accommodate the individual preferences of the property owners in the treatment of these backyard areas. No approval will be necessary for changes in lawn, shrubs, walkways or semi-permanent surface changes in the rear of houses. Staff approval would be required for semi-permanent structures such as gazebos, but not for play equipment such as swing sets, sand -boxes, etc. Required Plants, trees, fencing, walkways, private yard lights, signs (house numbers) and benches which reflect the properties' history and development shall be retained. 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. Accessory structures such as decks, gazebos, fountains, or small outbuildings should be appropriate to surrounding site elements in scale, type and appearance. Plant materials in close proximity to the buildings and which are causing deterioration to the building's historic fabric should be removed and replaced by more suitable flora as approved by the Historic Preservation Commission. Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing trees, fencing, walkways, outbuildings or other site 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, or fences shall not extend forward beyond the setback line of the property. Telephone or utility poles with high intensity overhead lights should be installed so that they cannot be seen from the thoroughfare. The installation of unsightly, large devices such as television satellite dishes shall not be permitted in areas STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the projects with the exception of the sidewalk and curb replacement that must be approved by Public Works first. When Public Works approves the in-kind replacement of the curb and sidewalk then Staff will issue a Routine Maintenance Exclusion Certificate. Catherine D. Hostetler, Director On a motion by Mike Voll with a second by Tom Gordon to approve application as presented. Vote: 6 — 0 unanimous. COA42015-0429 Approved. 3. 1105 E. Wayne St. COA#2015-0501 East Wayne Street Representation by Thomas Swizek, owner STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: 6 May 2015 Application Number: 2015-0501 Property Location: 1105 E. Wayne Street Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Tudor Revival/I925/HR Stapp/Whitcomb&Keller Property Owner: Cory Hoctger/Tom Swizek Landmark or District Designation: East Wayne Street Rating: Contributing DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: A two storey brick Tudor Revival house with a steep gable asphalt shingle roof. Windows are wood double hung and wood casements. There are glass blocks in the south wall of the one storey gabled section and again at the rear of the house next to a French door. There is a picture window in the rear wall in the first storey. There is an attached garage with a gabled roof and dormer. The entire exterior is stucco with a half brick wall. There is an additional entrance on the north side of the house toward the front with a flat roof supported by a wrought iron railing system. The front door is solid wood. ALTERATIONS: The picture window in the rear and the glass block are not original to the house. The additional side entrance with flat porch roof and wrought iron were later additions as well. COA#2013-1004 replaced deteriorated windows with replacements to match original muntin patterns as closely as possible; asbestos roof was replaced with asphalt; gutters and downspouts replaced in-kind; side front door overhang with fixed awning. APPLICATION ITEMS: Landscape debris removal, driveway extension, patio installation, tree + plant installation, fence installation. South Elevation: Pull everything, keep big tree. Pull all ivy. Put in Lilac Bushes. West Elevation: Keep pine tree and white flowing (dogwood???) tree. Put in Oak leaf Hydrangeas. Arborvitae each side of front door. Surrounded by Gold Mop Cypress. East Elevation: Arborvitae in corner of house South/East side corner. North Elevation: Pull everything. Put Dove grey Flagstone down with a fire pit in middle. Place vegetative barrier along the northwest corner along the rod (wrought) iron fence. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Although this property has an East Wayne Street address, its front door, front yard and driveway face on Eddy Street. Eddy Street is a four lane main north/south transportation route with heavy vehicular traffic passing this property. Pedestrian bicycle traffic is also high. Removal of any landscape debris is routine maintenance. Owner proposes to extend the driveway by adding a semi -circular driveway extension off the main straight drive — all material will be concrete to match existing. To accommodate the extension, three evergreen trees must be removed. Of the evergreen trees, one of the trees appears to be diseased or damaged by lightening and all three trees are cabled together. Just behind the new driveway installation owner proposes to add a flat patio using flagstone with a built-in low height fire pit of same material, see photo for flagstone example. Owner proposes adding a new 4' wrought iron fence to west front lawn that will extend back on the north lawn, see plan. The fence has spaces between the pickets but will provide additional security to the property. There will be no fence installed on the East Wayne Street side. The house across East Wayne Street also has a fence of this type installed on the Eddy Street frontage. Also proposed are the installation of several new trees and flowering bushes. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: East Mayne Street Local Historic District 1. THE ENVIRONMENT A. THE DISTRICT ENVIRONMENT The district is characterized by its proximity to downtown South Bend. It encompasses several blocks of East Wayne Street, North and South, from Eddy Street east to Greenlawn and the south side of Jefferson Boulevard from Eddy Street east to Sunnyside Avenue. The district is bounded on the north by Jefferson Boulevard from Eddy Street to Sunnyside Avenue and then by the north property lines of the Wayne Street properties to Greenlawn. The south boundary is the southern right of way of the alley or the southern property lines of East Wayne Street, South. Unique features of the neighborhood include the island of homes between East Wayne Street North and East Wayne Street South, the parks at each end of the island, and the brick pillars at the entrance way (Eddy Street) to the subdivision with signage reading "Whitcomb and Keller's Sunnymede." Definition - the term "trees" in the following standards shall be defined as follows: Shade trees - twelve (12) inches in diameter. Ornamental trees - four (4) inches in diameter or fifteen (15) feet in height. Evergreen trees - eight (8) inches in diameter or fifteen (15) feet in height. Any removal or planting of trees which are of the sizes indicated above or larger shall be reviewed by the Historic Preservation Commission. Required Distinctive existing features such as brick entry pillars, parks, gardens, streetlights, fences, signs, walkways, streets and building setbacks shall be retained. Major landscaping items, fencing, walkways, streetlights, signs and benches shall be compatible with the character of the neighborhood in size, scale, material and color. Street lighting should be maintained at levels recommended by the Illuminating Engineering Society. Light sources must have spectral distribution in all color ranges. Older light fixtures and supporting posts must be similar in proportion, scale, size, shape, style, and appearance to the existing historic lamps. Streetlights shall be placed so that adequate illumination is afforded all sections of public sidewalks (refer to Appendix A). 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 property 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. Not Recommended High-intensity overhead streetlights should not be used. B. BUILDING SITE, LANDSCAPING AND ACCESSORIES Individual properties in the district are characterized by a house located in the center of a flat lawn, often divided by a walk leading to the front entrance. Several of the residences are sited on two or more building lots; however, the preponderance of the homes have been erected on a single lot. Most of the properties include a double garage, usually located at the rear of the property. The majority of garages are accessed from straight driveways leading from the main thoroughfare, while a few are accessed from the alley. There are also a few homes with a covered carport located at the rear of the property, as well as a few with circular driveways. Driveway and sidewalk materials include concrete, asphalt and brick. All of the properties have trees and most have trimmed shrubbery and/or hedges. Most of the houses conform to a uniform setback line within each block 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 high intensity 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.

A tree located in such areas shall only be removed if the removal is required due to storm damage, disease, threatened damage to a structure or for such other reason acceptable to the Historic Preservation Commission. Storm damaged or diseased trees should then be replaced with an approved species at the same or approximate location wherever possible. Fencing visible from the street in front of the structure shall be open (meaning spaces between the pickets) and consistent with the historic character of a structure enclosed. 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 also be appropriate to existing surrounding site elements in scale, type and appearance. Front yard areas should remain open. (See above for information regarding fences.) Trees in close proximity to a building may cause structural damage. Owners are encouraged to remove these trees and replace (or replant) them at a more appropriate location as soon as planting season permits and upon approval of a C of A. Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing 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, nor enclosed by solid fences, chain link, nor industrial/commercial style fences. The installation of unsightly large devices, such as television satellite dishes, skylights or solar panels, shall not be permitted in areas where they detract from the architecture of a building, are intrusive to the public view of the building or are highly visibly from a public street, or ruled inappropriate after Commission review. Utility poles with high-intensity overhead lights should be installed so that they cannot be seen from a street. The Commission will evaluate all installations as well as any potential exceptions resulting from special circumstances, before granting a C of A.
