Original windows and doors shall be retained including sashes, lintels, sills, shutters, decorative <br />glass, pediments, hoods and hardware. When deteriorated beyond repair, they shall be replaced <br />with units and trim resembling the original. <br />Recommended <br />Wood storm windows and doors painted or finished to match the original should be used but <br />should not damage existing frames. If new sashes or doors are installed, the existing or original <br />materials, design and hardware should be used. When metal storm doors are used, they should be <br />painted, anodized or coated to match the existing. When awnings are used, they should be of <br />canvas material. <br />Prohibited <br />Original doors, windows and hardware shall not be discarded when they can be restored and <br />reused in place. New window and door openings, which would alter the scale and proportion <br />of the building may not be introduced. Inappropriate new window and door features such as <br />metal, vinyl or fiberglass awnings, hoods or aluminum insulating glass combinations that require <br />removal of original windows and doors, shall not be installed. <br />Not Recommended <br />Fake shutters that would detract from the existing character or appearance of the building should <br />not be used. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff has no recommendation for the replacement <br />windows as the project is nearly complete and we have no documentation as to what <br />existed prior to the beginning of the project for lead abatement. Staff recommends <br />approval of the two deteriorating doors that are probably not original to the house. <br />
