It has a cross gable roof with moulded rake and 3 -tab asphalt shingles. There is a small shed dormer on the central gable. The windows are nine -light casements in the front with 3 light transoms. The bay has 9/1 double hung wood windows. The front door is a wood panel door from the 1916 re -model with round light and arched lintel and decorative metalwork and hinges. There are some original wood storm windows and aluminum storm windows. ALTERATIONS: The fagade of the house was remodeled into a cottage style from a T plan with curved side wraparound porch and Doric columns above the knee wall. The 1/1 double hung windows were replaced with casements in the front and 6/1 in the rest of the house. The bay area was added in 1916 with 9/1 windows. The original wood roofing shingles have been replaced with asphalt shingles. The metal awning over the front entrance noted in the 1987 survey card has been removed and a new porch overhang is under construction with COA 2010-1001A. The aluminum storm windows are modern additions. The roof was replaced with COA 2010-1001A APPLICATION ITEMS: Wepesed (A): eompietien of ffent pefeh pc7r all original a prw d eons - (see -dfam4ng).

TTheeem€nt-is l-S��:r Y Update 4/25/16 On April 22, 2016 at approximately 1pm I arrived at the property located at 841 Park Ave. This property is part of the Chapin Park Local Historic District. I photographed all four sides of the house and made notes as to number each window of the structure and detailing which had been replaced or were still original by way of a diagram that I hand drawn on site. The numbers that I refer to in this report correspond to those numbers which can be found on the printed photographs and my original drawings. I was asked per the Commission's request to inspect the remaining windows at the house to determine if they were deteriorated beyond repair. I photographed as many of the windows as I could get to close enough to show detail. Those that I found to have significant deterioration, I photographed and noted. For the sake of simplicity, I have tried to detail the windows according to their respective numbers. 1-14 Have already been switched out to new windows 15-16 There are no windows present to inspect, just openings with rigid insulation 17-26 Details in photographs will show that the sashes have sustained significant damage due to attempts to secure property. The sashes themselves have had screws driven through them to secure the sashes to the frames. None of these windows had ropes, weights, or parting stops. The interior photographs will show the weight pockets are empty and filled with insulation. Most have had the parting stops ripped broken out with sections of those stops still located in the jambs. There are areas of dry rot in the muntins especially in #'s 22-24. The lower sashes of the first floor on that side have some separation on the frame joints but have been damaged due to the screws. If not for this damage and the missing pieces these would not have been beyond repair. 27-28 These two windows are loose to the touch, dry rot and weather have left the glass barely in the frames. The muntins on these two are the worst in the structure and are soft to the touch. The lower sashes on these two are beyond repair. 29-30 These two have been painted and caulked to improve appearance. The wood is not soft, but once again these have been secured with numerous screws that have split the sash frames. 31-33 These three small casement windows are showing dry rot despite having storm windows in place. The opening mechanisms are painted shut. When I attempted to move the cranks even a little, the screws were pulling out of the sashes. 34-35 No windows present, but new windows are poised to go in. 36 Already replaced 37 Replaced with casement window no muntin pattern and odd trim work ill -sized for the window 38-40 I was unable to get close enough to get detailed photographs of #'s 38 and 39. There is a detailed shot of #40 on file Neither 38 or 40 had storm windows and were secured in place without weights and cords. On #40 the upper sash had dry rot and was soft to touch. 41-42 Were both painted and caulked for appearance. Both were secured with screws and are off square. #41 has a 1/2 to % inch drop from left to right on the bottom sash and sill. The photo of the meeting rail shows highlights this. I could not determine the condition of the sashes due to the paint, caulk, and lack of movement. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: CHAPIN PARK THE ENVIRONMENT B.

EXISTING STRUCTURES A. BUILDING MATERIALS Original exterior building materials in the district include brick, stucco, clapboard, wood shingles, and brick or stone masonry. In some instances, vinyl, composite and aluminum siding have been applied over the original material. Required Original exterior building materials shall be retained when possible. Deterioration of wood materials shall be prevented through repair, cleaning and painting. The existing architectural detail around windows, porches, doors and eaves shall be retained or replaced by replicas of the same design when deteriorated beyond repair. Masonry, including brick and stucco structures, shall be maintained, and properly cleaned only when necessary to halt deterioration or to remove stains and shall be done in a method acceptable for the preservation of the surface: i.e. low-pressure water and soft natural bristle brushes. Brick or masonry 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. When repairing stucco, stucco mixture shall be used. A professional shall make a study of the old stucco, to determine the exact mixture and underlayment used in the original work. Some repair methods are not compatible with the original techniques and may cause early disintegration of the repair work and the original work. Ample ventilation must be afforded the structure when siding is installed, in order to prevent increased deterioration of the structure from moisture and insects. Recommended Whenever possible, the original building materials should be restored. When maintaining or repairing original siding is not feasible, aluminum, vinyl or composite siding may be used. 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. Property owners should contact the Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County prior to initiating any restoration or rehabilitation effort. [Address and contact information is listed in the front of the Guidebook.] The Commission is an invaluable source of information about all facets of rehabilitation and restoration — materials, methods, contractors and the like. Prohibited Wood siding shall not be resurfaced with new material that is inappropriate or was unavailable when the building was constricted, such as artificial stone, brick veneer, asbestos or asphalt shingles. Sandblasting or the use of harsh detergents shall not be used on masonry including brick, stucco, limestone, flagstone and sandstone. This method of cleaning erodes the surface material and accelerates deterioration. Repointing shall not be done with a mortar of high Portland cement content which can often create a bond that is stronger than the building material. Usage of Portland cement can cause deterioration as a result of the differing coefficient of expansion and porosity of the historic masonry unit and the mortar. This most often results in serious damage to adjacent brick. Unpainted masonry surfaces shall not be painted unless they had been painted originally. Paint shall not be removed from masonry surfaces by any means that damage the surface. Not Recommended Waterproof or water repellent coatings or surface consolidation treatments should not be used on masonry surfaces unless required to solve a specific problem that has been studied and identified. Coatings are frequently unnecessary and expensive, and can accelerate deterioration of the masonry. Mortar joints, which do not need repointing, should not be repointed. Wood siding should not be power -washed. C. WINDOWS AND DOORS 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. D.

The roof is covered with asphalt shingles. There is an enclosed front porch with siding to match to house and metal railings. There is a fence across the drive way. ALTERATIONS: In 1945 there was a 5' x 6' addition to the porch. The house is aluminum sided, the perma-stone is not original and there are replacement windows. The fence was added with COA 2009- 0922. There is a rear addition with a wooden deck and ramp that was added after the fence was installed, without a COA. COA 2012-0420 approved tear -off and replacement of asphalt shingles. COA 2015- 1005A approved removal of the garage, but it has not yet been demolished. APPLICATION ITEMS: Demolition of existing concrete front porch and steps and replace with wood front porch and steps. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The owners propose to remove the non -original, deteriorated concrete front porch and steps, as well as the existing metal railing, and replace with wood porch, steps, and railing, see Front Porch Plans diagram. The footprint of the proposed deck will be the same as the existing porch. The owner stated that "the use of wood allows the owners to do the work themselves, resulting in significant cost savings". The proposal for the front is designed to look similar in style to the deck that was added to the rear. PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT: On May 3, 2016, I returned to the address on request of the Deputy Director to photograph the steps for application COA 2016-0502. The problem is the limestone fagade ends on the right side of the steps on the house but continues to the end of the steps on the left side of the house when viewing the front. If he removes the steps, there will need to be some way to end the veneer. There is a jagged crack but that cannot be the end or more will come off. Also when the stairs are removed, there may not be any veneer behind the existing steps. The condition of the current steps is poor with just as may cracks as patches. The veneer on the face of the steps has also failed. This is partially due to the patches not covering the entire veneer squarely. The railing is solid and solidly attached to the house, however the contact points to the steps have been compromised by the steps' condition and patches. The railing is attached to the house by bolts and covered with mortar. Please see pictures attached. I did not see any approved COAs in the file for the deck that was added to the rear of the house that the owner plans to match the front steps to. I do see pictures dated 4/21/2010 depicting construction at the rear of the house but I do see further correspondence to the matter. I was not able to meet with the owner in person. I knocked when I was on site, but got no answer. Steve Szaday Preservation Specialist STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: CHAPIN PARK EXISTING STRUCTURES D. ENTRANCES PORCHES AND STEPS Most houses in the district have either an open or enclosed porch across the front. Most porches have either hip or gabled roofs or are covered by the main roof of the house. Required When deteriorated beyond repair, existing or original porches, stoops, patios and steps, including handrails, balusters, columns, brackets, tiles and roof decorations, shall be retained or replaced by replicas of the same design or by a design more in keeping with the historic period of the structure. Porches and additions reflecting later architectural styles and which are important to the building's historical integrity shall be retained. Recommended When enclosing porches for heat conservation or for other reasons, it should be done in a manner that does not alter the architectural or historical character of the building. Prohibited Front porches, stoops, patios and steps that are important to the building's style and development shall not be altered or removed; if in need of replacement, see above Required section. See also Section IV B. Access for Handicapped or Disabled Persons. Not Recommended Original porch details should not be replaced with materials representing a different period or style from the original. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends replacement of the front porch but suggests a redesign of the proposed to a "design more in keeping with the historic period of the structure" as required by the Chapin Park Standards and Guidelines. Staff also recommends that garage demolition approved with COA 2015- 1005A take priority.

Russell Stapp, Architect/Osborne House Property Owner: Jim Schmiedeler Landmark or District Designation: East Wayne Street Local Historic District Rating: Notable DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: The Renaissance Revival house is 2 story frame with brick veneer in a rectangular plan. The tile hip roof has molded trim at eave ends. Triple arched window at front with brick header, course sill and tracery, and terra cotta spiral Corinthian column between windows. Second floor windows are 6/6 double -hung with railings in front. The front door has a limestone surround with scroll pattern in transom area, flanked by narrow fixed windows with iron grating. The front stoop and steps are slate and concrete. There is a detached 2 -car, 1 -door garage at the rear with matching roof and brick. ALTERATIONS: Aluminum storms have been added to windows. A single -story wing was added in 1952, with a flat roof with iron railing above, large single pane windows, and brick chimney at the side. COA 2012-0507A approved replacement of original failed stucco with Dryvit. COA 2009-0731 approved demolition of in -ground swimming pool and portion of fence between garage and rear of house. COA 2008-0904 allowed replacement of 15 windows and front storm door. APPLICATION ITEMS: Replace soffit, fascia and gutter. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The owner has contracted with Millwood Roofing to replace existing deteriorated wood soffit and fascia with fiber cement, and install new half -round gutters to the house, with downspouts located as indicated on site plan. Existing crown moldings to be removed to allow proper installation of gutter. PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT: On May 5, 2016 I visited the property at 1611 E Wayne St, in the East Wayne Local Historic District. The scope of work for the proposed COA included gutters, fascia, and soffit. Upon inspection, I noticed the only part of the house that currently had a gutter was above the door near the driveway on the east side of the house. There is a gutter system on the garage, but I do believe this is part of the application. There is a crown molding transition at the top of the fascia board that continues around the entire house. It appears as though the gutter that exists in that single east location is attached over that crown molding. The application does not specify if that crown molding will be replaced when the fascia is replaced or will it be omitted in lieu of a flat surface to attach gutters to. Round gutters will allow the crown to remain, "K" style gutters are best installed flat against the fascia board. In regards to the soffit, there are multiple locations where evidence of water infiltration has occurred, there are two locations where someone has wrapped plastic around the soffit. I can only assume this was done to keep elements or pests out. The soffit is currently made of wood as evident by the splintering and visible wood grain. So is the fascia board. There is no doubt that sections of the soffit as well as the fascia are in need of replacing. It is also of my opinion, that additional vents be added along the soffit. The large overhang may be better served with additional airflow to allow heat and moisture to move more freely through the space. The material proposed is a fiber cement board which has had successful applications in other LHDs in South Bend when vented properly. I do not recall any such replacement in East Wayne, but do recall examples in Edgewater Place and Chapin Park. The change in material does require HPC approval not just a Routine Maintenance Exclusion. Please refer to photographs in the electronic and paper file. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: EAST WAYNE STREET LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT B. ROOFS AND ROOFING Roof shapes in the district encompass most of the various designs found in residential structures. 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 or metal sided houses are covered with the same material. Required The existing shape and 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 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 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 the thoroughfare 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, soffits, brackets and gables should not be covered or enclosed when adding metal or vinyl siding to a building.

PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT: n/a STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: TAYLOR'S FIELD II. THE ENVIRONMENT A. BUILDING SITE, LANDSCAPING, AND ACCESSORIES Individual properties in the district are characterized by a house located near the front of each lot with a small to medium lawn in front and little to no lawn at the rear of the property. Often the back yard is used as a parking lot for tenants. About half of the properties include a garage which is either located at the rear of the property and accessed from unpaved alleys running behind the property or located directly next to the structure and accessed by small drives. Nearly all of the garage structures are out of date, single -stall frame buildings. One large carriage house still stands in the district. Most properties have trees, shrubbery and/or hedges. Most houses conform to the uniform set -back within each block. Required Plants, trees, fencing, walkways, private yard lights, signs (house numbers) and benches which reflect the property's 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 and/or small outbuildings should be appropriate to surrounding site elements in scale, type and appearance. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building and causing deterioration to the building's historic fabric should be removed and replaced by 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 house. The installation of unsightly devices such as television satellite dishes, solar panels and skylights shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from the public thoroughfare. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval. Debra Parcell, Deputy Director Szalay clarified property alterations: the chain link fence on the north side of property is owned by neighbor.

STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: 18 April 2016 Application Number: 2016-0318 Property Location: 325 S Sunnyside Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Colonial Revival/1928/Whitcomb & Keller/Haynes House Property Owner: William Broecker Landmark or District Designation: East Wayne Street Rating: Contributing DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: This house is a 2 '/z story Colonial Revival built in 1928, of frame construction with brick veneer. The gable roof with dormers has asphalt shingles. There is a concrete slab porch with flared hip canopy at front entrance. Windows are 6 over 6 wood double hung with aluminum storms, wood trim surround, and brick soldier course lintels. Second story street -facing windows feature balconettes with brackets and cornice trim. Windows in the gables of the third story are 4 over 4. ALTERATIONS: One-story board and batten infilled garage with flat roof. Attached 2 car garage with gable roof, asphalt shingles, and reverse board and batten siding. COA 2004-1008 approved gutter and downspout replacement, and chimney painting. COA 2010-1104 approved roof replacement. COA 2015-1214 approved fire repairs to the roof. APPLICATION ITEMS: 31d story windows. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: In the fall of 2015, HPC Preservation Specialist, noticed the attic windows of this house had been removed, and talked with a person he thought was the owner who told him they were being repaired and would be re -installed once completed. In February, it was noticed that the windows had been replaced with new Pella windows with 4/4 grid pattern (unsure of material) and aluminum trim. They are no longer wood with true divided lite windows and the size of the opening appears to be reduced. The original sashes were in the dumpster at the house with broken panes, and charred from a fire that had occurred on the third floor, appearing deteriorated beyond repair. The owner believed the fire restoration company had pulled the necessary permits. First Response obtained a building permit for this project without specifying windows, and no COA application was made before the windows were replaced. Recent conversation with the owner revealed the charred windows in the dumpster were from the north end of the house; the windows from the south end were removed by firefighters to gain attic access, and were c 1970s replacement windows with full light with no grid or true divided lite. Further, the owner reported neither he nor his wife had conversation with Preservation Specialist about the windows. The windows were scheduled for replacement as south windows were destroyed by the fire department and north windows were charred beyond repair. Although the window size has been slightly reduced, trim has been added to give the appearance of the original opening, an outcome that the owner is satisfied with. PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT: n/a STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: EAST WAYNE STREET Il. EXISTING STRUCTURES C. WINDOWS AND DOORS Window and door frames are of wood or steel (some casements) or in the case of brick structures, stone sills and brick lintels. Where metal or vinyl siding has been applied, window trim has been covered. Storm windows are of wood or aluminum. 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 frame storm windows and doors painted 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 re -used in place. New window and door openings which would alter the scale and proportion of the building shall not be introduced. Inappropriate new window and door features such as aluminum insulating glass combinations that require removal of the original windows and doors shall not be installed. Not Recommended Awnings, hoods, and 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. Debra Parcell, Deputy Director Commissioner Buccellato moved to approve application under condition that windows be reinstalled with a mullion matching the current aesthetics of the windows below. Seconded by Commissioner Gordon. Five in favor, none opposed. Vote: 5 — 0 COA#2016-0318 Approved with Conditions. 3. 1105 E.

Wayne STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: 31 March 2016 Application Number: 2016-0329 Property Location: 1105E Wayne Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Tudor Revival/1925/H. Russell Stapp/Hillbert-Lontz House Property Owner: Robert and Anastassia Cassady Landmark or District Designation: East Wayne Street Rating: Contributing DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: This two story brick Tudor Revival house has the original asbestos tile on the steep gable roof and paired metal casement windows: 3 x 3 lights and 4 x 4 lights. There is glass block in the south wall of the one story 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 story. 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 and glass block in the rear 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 approved new roof, windows, and guttering. COA 2015-0501 approved driveway extension, patio installation, tree and plant installation, and fence installation. COA 2015-1005 approved chimney replacement. APPLICATION ITEMS: We would like to add a wooden fence to the side yard of the home and along the back portion abutting the fence of a neighbor to the east of the property. The main function of this fence is safety for our children as the home is on Eddy Street. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The owners have obtained a quote to install 247' of 6'high untreated cedar fence (either lap board or dog ear top) in the side yard and along the back of the property. The main function of this fence is to enclose this area for the safety of the owners' two young children, as the house sits primarily on Eddy Street, and the majority of the side yard is open to that street. There are two 4' gates of the same fence panel proposed, one in the rear of the house and one in the front off the driveway. In May 2015 the Commission approved a 4' wrought iron fence to be added to the west front lawn that extends back on the north lawn. From photographs recently taken by our preservation specialist, it appears that fence was not installed. PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT: n/a STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: EAST WAYNE STREET I. THE ENVIRONMENT B. BUILDINGSITE, 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.

Jefferson Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Colonial Revival/ 1939Bon Durant House Property Owner: Louis and Jennifer Miller Landmark or District Designation: East Wayne Street Rating: Notable DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: This is a two story frame, irregular plan Colonial Revival house with a hip roof with simple cornice molding and dentils. Windows are 6/6 and 6/9 double hung with brick flat arch windows at first floor with wood panel sections below sill and cut stone sills second floor. The entry is central with fluted pilasters and Corinthian capitals supporting broken pediments with scroll detailing. A two door garage is attached in rear with a hip roof with hip dormers. Two brick chimneys are at opposite ends of central block. ALTERATIONS: A roof and screen wall was added to an existing patio in 1994 to produce a sunroom. COA 2015-0803 approved addition of a dormer to the rear of the house, construction of a 2 -stall garage, installation of windows and door to rear screen porch, and restoration of arched windows in sunroom. APPLICATION ITEMS: Remove existing shed and two trees at rear of current driveway. Construct new 2 stall garage. Construct covered walkway which will be integrated into new garage to connect new garage to existing main house. Replant like trees on either side of garage. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The Commission approved construction of a detached garage in August 2015. The owners would now like to incorporate a covered walkway into the design, connecting the new garage with the existing house, per designer's plan. The orientation of the garage has changed from the original approval with the doors now facing the front. To accommodate the new garage location, two existing trees and a small non -original shed will be removed. Of the two trees, one is already dead and the other is an approximately 30' Oak. In a previous conversation, the owners were open to exploring the possibility of having the healthy tree milled on site to reuse the lumber in the construction of the garage. Like trees will be replanted on either side of the garage. PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT: n/a STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: EAST WAYNE STREET I. THE ENVIRONMENT B.

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. III. NEW CONSTRUCTION New construction includes any new building or structure constructed within the boundaries of the historic district, or any new addition to an existing building. New construction should be designed considering the appearance of the other buildings in the neighborhood. A. HEIGHT AND PROPORTION The majority of structures in the district are two stories high and are square, rectangular, or irregular in plan. There are a few story -and -a -half residences. The prevalent facade proportions are between a 1:1 and a 1:2 height -to -width ratio. Required The height of a new structure and its height -to -width proportions shall be consistent with adjacent buildings in the district. The building height shall be no greater than that of the tallest existing structure and no less than that of the lowest existing structure of the same type in the same block. Fagade proportions shall be established by permitting no structure with a facade wider or narrower than those existing in the same block. Additions to existing buildings shall be related in height and proportion to the existing structure. Recommended Contemporary designs should be compatible in character and mood to the building or neighborhood. Prohibited Additions may not be constructed that would change the existing facade of a building, alter its scale or architectural character, or add new height. Not Recommended New stories should not be added, nor should existing stories be removed, which would destroy important architectural details, features or spaces of the building. Any style or period of architecture that is incompatible with what exists should not be permitted in the new additions. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval. Elicia Feasel, Executive Director Commissioner Buccellato moved to approve application under condition that the contractor/owner submit specifications for the windows to verify that the muntins are raised matching the existing house, and the garage doors are consistent with the existing garage doors, and staff would have the authority to approve that. Seconded by Commissioner Anderson. Five in favor, none opposed. Vote: 5 — 0. COA#2016-0331 Approved with Conditions. 5. 841 Park Avenue COA#2016-0401 Chapin Park Representation by Cole Hay, 841 Park Avenue STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: 18 April 2016 Application Number: 2016-0401 Property Location: 841 Park Avenue Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: T-Plan/1890Berger House Property Owner: Cole Hay Landmark or District Designation: Chapin Park Rating: Outstanding DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: The 2 story frame house with a south bay has an irregular plan set upon a brick foundation. It has a cross gable roof with moulded rake and 3 -tab asphalt shingles. There is a small shed dormer on the central gable. The windows are nine -light casements in the front with 3 light transoms. The bay has 9/1 double hung wood windows. The front door is a wood panel door from the 1916 re -model with round light and arched lintel and decorative metalwork and hinges. There are some original wood storm windows and aluminum storm windows. ALTERATIONS: The fagade of the house was remodeled into a cottage style from a T plan with curved side wraparound porch and Doric columns above the knee wall. The 1/1 double hung windows were replaced with casements in the front and 6/1 in the rest of the house. The bay area was added in 1916 with 9/1 windows. The original wood roofing shingles have been replaced with asphalt shingles. The metal awing over the front entrance noted in the 1987 survey card has been removed and a new porch overhang is under construction with COA 2010-1001A. The aluminum storm windows are modern additions. The roof was replaced with COA 2010-1001A APPLICATION ITEMS: Proposed (A): completion of front porch per all original approved specifications (see drawing). Currently: exterior trim in poor condition (see photos). Proposed (B): replace with new Plygem trim, a superior wood substitute, matching the original (see brochure). Currently: exterior siding in poor condition (see photos). Proposed (C): replace with new 6" beveled cedar lap siding, same material & size as original. Currently: windows in very poor condition (see photos). Proposed (D): replace with Pella Proline 450 Series double -hung, casement and fixed transom windows with 7/8" simulated divided -light (SDL) grilles (see brochure). Currently: front door weather damaged beyond use (see photos). Proposed (E) replace with an oak door matching the original, hand crafted by Dovetail Joint, who do many of the exterior doors at Notre Dame, and using the original hardware. Proposed (F): construct 2 masonry post columns with curved end fencing, defining the property (see drawing). Post columns to match masonry post column on front porch. See attached description of work. Applicant has provided examples of "previously approved projects" in the neighborhood that relate to the type of projects proposed. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The owner proposes (A) to complete the front porch by installing brick porch and steps, brick half column topped with half post column, new door with original hardware, and gutter. The door is currently being built and stained, and porch roof framing and trim have been completed. The original COA 2010-1001A was renewed in 2013 and 2014. The overhang has been constructed but the proposed brick stoop and step with composite Doric Column. The replica front door has not been installed B: replacing all wood trim on the house with Plygem, a cellular PVC product; the front gable trim is already complete. Proposed D: replace all existing wood windows with Pella Proline 450 Series aluminum exterior -clad wood windows. Window replacement in the front is complete. Proposed F: Construct 2 masonry post columns to match the masonry post column on front porch, to be used as part of a comer fence to define and enhance the front corners of the property. The siding (Proposed C), and front door replacement (Proposed E) could be considered a Routine Maintenance Exclusion, as they are a replacement in kind. See attached drawings, photos, and brochures for further information. PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT: March 10, 2016 It was brought to our attention on 03/09/2016 that 841 Park Ave had new windows being installed and that a new "colonial" architectural detail was also being added. The house has been in progress of repair for the last two years. The owner had been approved for a new porch overhang and had been working on removing and repairing the wood clap board siding. Until recently the front windows had been covered up while the siding work had been on going. It is very evident that these are new windows and not the original wood double hung that are still in place in other areas of the house. I reviewed the file confirming that the COA was only for the porch overhang and nothing more. I called the St. Joseph County Building Department to see what permits had been issued on this property. They confirmed the last permit was for the porch overhang in 2014. The only other permit pulled was an electrical permit dated 2013. The Building Department informed me that they would be sending out an inspector to "red tag" the property as soon as possible. The windows that have been installed look to be compatible with the Jeld-Wen series 2500 aluminum clad wood windows with interior and exterior grids. The same windows were installed at 307 Lamont in February and look very similar. In any event, they are not the same as the wood windows that were there. Please see attached file photographs from March 10, 2016 and those from 2014 to compare what was there to what has been installed. Update 3/17/16 I met with Cole Hay on 3/16/16. He indicated that he would be coming in to apply for the windows and getting renewed RMEs for the siding and porch base rework since the previous RMEs were expired. The project was not red -tagged. I inquired at the Bldg Dept. as to why there was no Stop Work order on the property. The inspector informed the owner that he was doing work without permits and would need to get permits. He never stated "stop work". The other inspector will be going out today to post a "Stop Work" Mr. Hay came in and his application was rejected due to lack of product info of what he is putting in. He said the windows were beyond repair, but made no attempts to document this or to contact us to document the condition prior to performing the work. Guess What? Now we have two brick pillars flanking the property line just inside the municipal sidewalk. This is less than 48 hours old. The cement is not entirely cured. Pictures attached. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: CHAPIN PARK THE ENVIRONMENT 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 visible 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. II. EXISTING STRUCTURES A. BUILDING MATERIALS Original exterior building materials in the district include brick, stucco, clapboard, wood shingles, and brick or stone masonry. In some instances, vinyl, composite and aluminum siding have been applied over the original material. Required Original exterior building materials shall be retained when possible. Deterioration of wood materials shall be prevented through repair, cleaning and painting. The existing architectural detail around windows, porches, doors and eaves shall be retained or replaced by replicas of the same design when deteriorated beyond repair. Masonry, including brick and stucco structures, shall be maintained, and properly cleaned only when necessary to halt deterioration or to remove stains and shall be done in a method acceptable for the preservation of the surface: i.e. low-pressure water and soft natural bristle brushes. Brick or masonry 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. When repairing stucco, stucco mixture shall be used. A professional shall make a study of the old stucco, to determine the exact mixture and underlayment used in the original work. Some repair methods are not compatible with the original techniques and may cause early disintegration of the repair work and the original work. Ample ventilation must be afforded the structure when siding is installed, in order to prevent increased deterioration of the structure from moisture and insects. Recommended Whenever possible, the original building materials should be restored. When maintaining or repairing original siding is not feasible, aluminum, vinyl or composite siding may be used. 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. Property owners should contact the Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County prior to initiating any restoration or rehabilitation effort. [Address and contact information is listed in the front of the Guidebook.] The Commission is an invaluable source of information about all facets of rehabilitation and restoration — materials, methods, contractors and the like. Prohibited Wood siding shall not be resurfaced with new material that is inappropriate or was unavailable when the building was constructed, such as artificial stone, brick veneer, asbestos or asphalt shingles. Sandblasting or the use of harsh detergents shall not be used on masonry including brick, stucco, limestone, flagstone and sandstone. This method of cleaning erodes the surface material and accelerates deterioration. Repointing shall not be done with a mortar of high Portland cement content which can often create a bond that is stronger than the building material. Usage of Portland cement can cause deterioration as a result of the differing coefficient of expansion and porosity of the historic masonry unit and the mortar. This most often results in serious damage to adjacent brick. Unpainted masonry surfaces shall not be painted unless they had been painted originally. Paint shall not be removed from masonry surfaces by any means that damage the surface. Not Recommended Waterproof or water repellent coatings or surface consolidation treatments should not be used on masonry surfaces unless required to solve a specific problem that has been studied and identified. Coatings are frequently unnecessary and expensive, and can accelerate deterioration of the masonry. Mortar joints, which do not need repointing, should not be repointed. Wood siding should not be power -washed. C. WINDOWS AND DOORS 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. D. ENTRANCES, PORCHES AND STEPS Most houses in the district have either an open or enclosed porch across the front. Most porches have either hip or gabled roofs or are covered by the main roof of the house. Required When deteriorated beyond repair, existing or original porches, stoops, patios and steps, including handrails, balusters, columns, brackets, tiles and roof decorations, shall be retained or replaced by replicas of the same design or by a design more in keeping with the historic period of the structure. Porches and additions reflecting later architectural styles and which are important to the building's historical integrity shall be retained. Recommended When enclosing porches for heat conservation or for other reasons, it should be done in a manner that does not alter the architectural or historical character of the building. Prohibited Front porches, stoops, patios and steps that are important to the building's style and development shall not be altered or removed; if in need of replacement, see above Required section. See also Section IV B. Access for Handicapped or Disabled Persons. Not Recommended Ri Original porch details should not be replaced with materials representing a different period or style from the original. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff does not recommend replacing trim with new artificial product and does not recommend the change in style that deviates from the original. Staff does not recommend replacement windows. Elicia Feasel, Executive Director Board requested owner to sign waiver to extend COA for continued investigation to allow staff to evaluate those elements of the project that currently have insufficient information to make a determination; owner agreed. Commissioner Buccellato moved to approve conditionally A, E, and F as submitted, along with all windows that have been replaced to date; items B, C, and D are continued subject to review by staff. Seconded by Commissioner Gordon. Five in favor, none opposed. Vote: 5 — 0. COA92016-0401 Approved with Conditions, with items B, C, and D subject to continued deliberation. B. LOCAL LANDMARK DESIGNATION 1. First reading: 803 West Washington Street No public input at first reading III. HEARING OF VISITORS A. Jim Bognar, 807 West Washington Street — Clarified that Rafael Morton attended the March 21, 2016 HPC meeting by his personal invitation in support of Mr. Bognar's claims regarding the 803 West Washington Street Fagade-Easement. Mr. Bognar continued with the assertion that Mr. Morton's attendance at the March meeting was misconstrued by certain members of the public and that has created great concern for Mr. Morton. Further discussion on HPC Executive Director's letter to the "Street Renaming Advisory Committee" and South Bend Tribune editorial regarding the renaming of Chapin Street; also concerns with 803 West Washington proposed landmark designation. Mr. Bognar later interjected to offer his apologies to Executive Director Feasel, the Historic Preservation Commission and to Todd Zeiger of Indiana Landmarks for "any misconceptions that (he) could have created to make their life more difficult." B. Rafael Morton, 325 North Studebaker — Addressed the HPC Commission Board on perception that he was at the March 21St meeting for purpose of Chapin Street discussion. Mr. Morton discussed at least one disturbing telephone conversation he had with an undisclosed individual regarding the Chapin Street re -naming discussion and his purpose for attendance at the March meeting. HPC Executive Director Elicia Feasel disclosed that nine individuals signed the public ledger guest book for the March meeting. Later discussion with Mr. Morton: he was unaware that anyone was willing to discuss 803 W Washington easement situation. President Klusczinski informed Mr. Morton of several attempts made by the HPC to initiate a discussion with interested members of the County Council; HPC has not received any response to date. Mr. Morton was unaware. C. Todd Zeiger, Indiana Landmarks, 402 West Washington — Responded to concerns over 803 West Washington Street easement transfer. Indiana Landmarks is a certified holder of easements, which are superior to the previous easement which only covered the house. The easement transfer did not cause the sale of the property to collapse. The buyers did not want any regulations at all, and it fell apart when Indiana Landmarks began to assert their covenants. Indiana Landmarks has never been asked to have a conversation about the transfer of the easement, and they would welcome the opportunity to talk about it from their side. In response to question of easement value: Appraiser could give value of property easements (value with easement less value without. Difference is value of easement to donor.) Holder of easement has negative value, as they must hold money to defend future actions. 0 IV. REGULAR BUSINESS A. APPROVAL OF MINUTES 1. March 21, 2016 — Approved by general consent. B. TREASURER'S REPORT 1. Location Report — Distributed. C. STAFF REPORTS 1. Correspondence — Circulated. 2. Routine Maintenance Exclusion Approvals — Circulated. Staff seeking a more streamlined way to handle RMEs. Staff proposed summarizing RMEs on executive/deputy director's report per present policy, listing address and RME#, address, and project description/disposition, but no photograph. The dates of these staff reports will be changed so that they can be included in commissioner packets. 3. Executive Director — Distributed. Discussion: Rezoning proposal recently received from Area Plan for 803 W Washington from MF1 Urban Corridor Multifamily to MU Mixed Use. Staffs opinion is this use is consistent with neighboring properties, and sees no conflict between mixed use zoning and local historic landmark designation zoning overlay. Executive Director will relay that opinion by letter to the Area Plan Commission. Shared letter from owners of Local Landmark at 614 Sherman Avenue seeking support in retaining the character of the neighborhood; discussion deferred until next month. Read letter of support of from Chapin Street resident David Relos regarding proposed renaming of Chapin Street. Briefly discussed new request from homeowner for landmark designation of the Elbel House. 4. Deputy Director — Distributed. 5. Preservation Specialist —Distributed. 6.

Richard Elbel. -806 Leland Avenue in South Bend is a fine example of Queen Anne Victorian. Built in 1894, it is completely intact architecturally on the exterior, and in very good, and generally original, condition on the interior, thanks to a sensitive restoration in 2016. The house has extensive exterior decoration including original spindle and fretwork, all but one of its original windows on the first and second story, and elaborate carpentry on the porch including wooden columns resting on the original masonry supports. -The house was built by a notable early resident, and a member of an important clan in 19th and 20thcentury South Bend history, Richard Elbel. Describe the buildings connection to an individual, event or trend of local or regional significance: The Elbel Family 806 Leland was built in 1894 by Richard and Maude Elbel. The Elbel name was of great importance in South Bend from 1848 when Johann Friedrick Elbel, a 50 year-old musician and tile maker, along with his wife Anna Susanna, came to South Bend from Arzberg, Germany. In 1854, Johann Elbel , built a house at 300 West Marion Street in South Bend, which became the center of the Elbel family's musical tradition. The Elbel family founded the first choral society in South Bend in 1855. By 1867, nine Elbel families were living in the neighborhood around Marion and Lafayette Streets, which had attracted other immigrants from Arzberg, thus garnering the name Little Arzberg. The Elbel Concert Band and Orchestra, featuring the early Elbel immigrant brothers John, Lorenz, Henry and Wolfgang, performed classical music at South Bend venues from 1858-1918. The Builder and First Owner of 806 Leland: Richard Elbel The Richard Elbel opened a music store in South Bend at 114 North Michigan Street in 1890. His brothers soon joined the business and it was called Elbel Bros. Music Store. The store was in business for 90 years. Richard served as President of the business. Louis Elbel composed the famous University of Michigan Fight Song, "The Victors", first performed by John Phillip Sousa's Band in 1899. Richard Elbel, the builder of 806 Leland, was thus President of Elbel Bros. Music, Director of the South Bend Orchestra and a South Bend Parks Commissioner. Richard Elbel served on the Parks Commission with George M. Platner, W.W. Ridenour and Otis Romine. Elbe was known as the "Dean of South Bend Parks." He was the only charter member of the South Bend Parks Commission to serve continuously until his retirement in 1939. Richard Elbel displaying a love for the development, and preservation, of green space from early adulthood. He served the city without salary and always insisted on paying his own traveling expenses. He was reappointed by four different mayors from different political tickets. In 1920 Richard Elbel was elected President of the State Park Association. He was demonstrative on the need for city planning and in particular for parks and streets. He believed streets should include landscaping and a sensitivity to appearance, thus attaching himself to the landscape and urban parks movements which produced such wonders as Central Park in New York City and Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. He was instrumental in obtaining grants of land 100- 200 feet wide from property owners from Leeper Park northward, providing for the beginnings of what would become the Riverside Drive Parkway. In 1932 he retired from the Parks' Commission and the golf course, then under development on the extreme northwest edge of South Bend, was named in his 2 honor, Elbel Golf Course. The Elbels had two children Verniece and Donald and they all lived at 806 Leland from 1895-1903. The family then moved to 605 Portage Avenue in South Bend. Thus staying in the orbit of the Little Arzberg Neighborhood, some of which is today incorporated in the Chapin Park Neighborhood. Ownership History: 806 Leland was sold in 1904 to Frank and Ida Korn for $4,500. Frank Korn was a farmer until 1902 when he fell from a silo and broke his back and the family moved into town. In 1909 the Korns sold the house to Wikie Barton who in turn sold the property to Norman P. and Maude Kelb in 1916. Norman was a railroad postal clerk; he and his wife resided there until their deaths, Maude in 1949 and Norman in 1950. Upon Mr. Kelb's passing the property was inherited by their children who immediately sold it to Peter J. and Dolly Klimishin. Peter was an employee of Bendix Corporation, he was also the first owner to rent part of the house out to boarders. The house remained in the Klimishin family for several decades. It was sold to Bill Ahern and Michele Morin Ahern in 1992. Bill and Michele had a daughter Lily who was an accomplished musician, earning a spot at the prestigious Interlochen School. Bill died of cancer in 2009 and the house was vacant. It went up for tax sale but was not sold in the first round. Before Bill died he had asked his neighbor, Joan Downs-Krostenko (849 Forest Avenue) to buy the house, in part because she was involved in historic preservation and had successfully restored other houses in the neighborhood. Joan was a professor of History at IU South Bend and later worked in the University Office for Advancement. She was successful in the tax sale the second year (2010) and became the owner in 2011. She rented and restored the house until its sale in 2016 to Ed Jurkowitz and Francesca Bordogna. They live in the house with their daughter Arianna (born 2001). Ed is from southern Ohio and Francesca is from Cuomo, Italy. Both are professors of the History of Science at Notre Dame. 3 Describe any noteworthy architectural features: 806 Leland Avenue is a two and a half story Queen Anne Victorian built in 1894. It has a finished attic with windows and a central chimney. The exterior of the house has a wide and deep front porch decorated with elaborate fretwork and two groups of three carved, fluted square columns on brick piers. The porch has a coffered front pediment and balustrade. The house has double hung windows with molded entablatures. The original front and back doors survive and are carved with dentils and coffers and have upper window panels. The interior of the house is mostly intact, although some alterations were made, probably in the 1950s, when the house was turned into two apartments. Those alterations have been reversed as of 2016. The interior features 12 foot ceilings, the original fireplace which preserves its carved wooden mantel with columns, tile work and metal built-in surround. There are solid pocket doors, hard wood floors, and the house has many of its original solid wood coffered doors and orientalizing hardware. In addition, an elaborate foyer with a stairwell featuring delicately carved spindles and paneling, as well as 2 built-in wooden seats, with lids which lift for storage, mark the house as architecturally significant. Nomination submitted by: Joan Downs-Krostenko Date: April 17, 2016 Signature: )V-O� OQU3r•d - A,ed k'" to 4 . -tl- . - - Elicia Feasel - Preservation support for 614 Sherman Ave From: clinton giUde 111 l@gmail.com> To: <EFeasel@co.st joseph.in.us>, <dcipmeyer@southbendin.gov> Date: 4/3/2016 11:00 AM Subject: Preservation support for 614 Sherman Ave Myself (Shundra Gilkie) and my husband Clinton Gilkie III are asking for your support in preserving the character of our home and nearby lots. As of 2013, all of the vacant homes have been demolished on our block including a commercial building that faced LWW. Since then we found out that the city owns the 2 lots next to us 616/618 Sherman and we have been denied the opportunity of ownership. It seems that the city has several other properties that are sporadic on this block. The cities reasoning for denying us ownership is because they are "holding it for future development." I want our voice to be heard to avoid the city placing government housing on this block (if that's the future plan). I would hope that the city would like to preserve or improve the neighborhood and public housing would do just the opposite. With government housing, you impose the risk of multiple tenants, weak or no source of income, and no vested interest from the renters. With that being said, this would be a haven again for prostitution, drugs, violence and an un -kept overall appearance of the neighborhood just to name a few negatives. These are the things we are fighting so hard to remove. Wouldn't it be better to maintain this 600 block of Sherman along with all of the positive efforts towards the rehabilitation to preserve historical homes? Also, being a landmark home built in 1915, 1 feel that anything built should have the same integrity if not greater than our home on this entire block. By at least owning 616/618 my husband and I dictate what can go there with the help of the Historic Preservation Commission. I'm uncertain why the city has such interest because it is neglected on a regular basis. Since 2011, my husband regularly mows the lot because it makes our yard look bad. The city on averaged come and mows every 5-6 weeks. Starting usually late in the spring and stopping early in the fall. There are large amounts of trash being dumped in the wooded lot near the alley. An old mattress sat there for while and now is in our back yard. Now it's our responsibility to remove it and the lot isn't even ours. Please assist us with the ability to preserve the character of our neighborhood.

Lots of work being done out there. Mainly landscaping details and tree trimming. Hard to see past road construction. I have noticed many code issues but luckily Code Enforcement has been very busy with hearings. Still scheduled this month alone: 621-623 Rex (how this changed to two addresses from its current zoning of SF2?) 228-230 S Michigan St 721 LWE 214 Riley PI 127 Franklin PI 417 Navarre I was busy last week with the Studebaker Site/ Renaissance District Event. It was a great event and I am glad that I could participate. Although, we may have to change our practice of donating my hours for those events as they seem to take longer each time. Speaking of this Studebaker... We were contacted by Tim Janowiak of the Driver's Club and Margaret Fosmoe of SB Tribune looking for photos and or drawings of the guard shack that once stood on Sample. The structure, fence, and four columns were dismantled by the city (December 2007) with the promise that it would be reinstalled perhaps at Ignition Park. South Bend Warehousing District (Kevin Smith -Union Station, et al) has stored the dismantled material for the past 9 years free of charge. They have also expressed interest in drawings. I found a disc with photos and some rough hand drawings and dimensions in our demolition files. The photos and drawings were done by DLZ and was contracted by the city of South Bend. We are treating these as archives and as such, need to have information request forms completed and approved prior to receiving copies. Community Investment has been made aware of the material in our archives. St. Joseph County also expressed some interest in the structure as well. The wood floor workshop as part of Indiana Landmarks Vintage Green Series went very well and had 8 attendees. I was able to tour the Fat Daddy's block and took several photographs which are on file as well as my report. The building with the most fires is actually the most structurally sound out of the three with the middle building being completely hollowed out with a large tree growing through the middle.
