December 2"l,2019 Mr.Benjamin and Ms.Came Modlin Filed in Clerk's Office 60649 Hickory Road South Bend,IN 46614 JAN 07 202 0 r .•,i., CITY CI FRY,S(urH rtFN.m.tlq Dear Mr.and Ms.Modlin, The Commissioners,at the regularly scheduled monthly Historic Preservation Commission meeting on November 18'h,2019 denied approval of Certificate of Appropriateness application#2019-1007A-Continued,which included the following application items: "Removal of decayed existing siding,animal feces, bat habitat exclusion, beehives, mold, waterlogged and damaged material, removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity. Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap, new flashings,new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications. Please see supporting documentation." In making its determination,the Historic Preservation Commission considered the appropriateness of the proposed construction, reconstruction, or alteration to the preservation of the historic landmark, specifically, and/or the Historic Preservation District, generally; the detriment to the public welfare if the proposed construction,reconstruction,or alteration were permitted even though it is not deemed appropriate;and the potential hardship that the denial of a certificate of appropriateness would cause the applicant. Following is the record from the meeting concerning your project stating why your application was denied: Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that all the architectural details including the trim around the windows,the roof gable,the brackets, are replicated in the original style and material(this does not include the siding). Seconded by Commissioner Ponder. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote:7—0. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,section one,regarding"the treatment and preservation of the Architectural details"is passed. Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that the siding to be replaced should be wood in nature,with final approval of the product details remanded to staff.Seconded by Commissioner Downs-Krostenko.

Vote:6—1. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,section two with wood siding,with final product details remanded to staff,is approved. Commissioner Gellman stated that the vinyl siding has been denied. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that the approved motion is a denial of the original application,and that Commissioners should state their reasons for denial. Roll was called. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko(AVE): I vote to deny because,the holy grail of our business is the exterior preservation of these buildings,and changing the material and the dimensions of the material does radically change the appearance of the house,it also involves demolishing the existing wood siding,and once you do something like that to the house,you can pretty much guarantee that it probably will never come back. If the wood stays underneath there,someone may come along and say, `oh,I'm going to make arrangements to take off the nasty vinyl siding and repair the woodwork and the carpentry and make it beautiful again.' Once you remove it,you pretty much put a stake through the heart of the building in terms of its integrity and value in the exterior. Commissioner Annis(AYE):I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the recommendation of the standards. Our job is to uphold the Standards. Commissioner Deegan(NAY): Commissioner Hertel(AYE): I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the standards and guidelines of what would be appropriate for the house of that historic time. Commissioner Gelfman(AYE):I vote to deny,due to the fact that, 1)this farmstead is notable,which is critical in St.Joseph County and the City as well. 2)If we are to keep the integrity of historical preservation that exists for hundreds and hundreds of years,we have to look at the standards and the guidelines that have been set,and we need to follow them as best we can. I understand that this is a difficult situation because of the cost of it,unfortunately one of the things that comes along with a historical home,which I think all of us own,is that—the cost of the renovations of it. One of the things that Dr. [Krostenko-]Downs did recommend that might be helpful to you is to just do it a section at a time,over so many years. I understand that is difficult as well,but if you are doing this yourself,then that lessens the amount,not just for the wood itself,but for the labor and everything else that is involved with it. Commissioner Ponder(AYE):I vote to deny for the reasons already stated based in the guidelines,as well as for the precedence that it sets. If we allow you to do it—and yes,I understand the financial hardship—if someone else comes with a smaller project,then they will use this as leverage to say, 'hey,you let them do it,why can't you let us do it?' Again,we must follow the guidelines that have been laid out. Commissioner Stalheim(AYE): I vote to deny based upon all of the reasons previously stated. Application to install vinyl siding is denied. Page 12 CITY OF SOUTH BEND HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION The Commission acknowledged the deteriorated condition of the existing siding and wall cavities by giving approval for new wood siding to be installed.Staff is available to work with you on the details and issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness should you wish to install wood siding.

Roof is cross plan with gable front and jerkin head side gable. Front porch has a single turned post,rear porch is slightly projecting with turned posts and a concrete stoop. The walls are original wood weatherboard shiplap siding with corner boards. Front windows have a wood,raised head with labels where other windows have plain labels. There is a two-story bay window with scrolled brackets. The side bay has a jerkin head roof with art nouveau scrolled decorations on the fascia. Front gable end has an ornate scrollwork decorative fascia,with pendants. There are two front doors with transoms, one with a full light. ALTERATIONS: The St.Joseph County ordinance in 1978 designating and establishing the Historic Landmark originally included 80 acres. The parcel has since been subdivided and was annexed to the City of South Bend in 1989. While the farm mostly retains the plan of its original buildings,changes to the property without COA are evidenced on aerial maps including the removal of a silo,removal of a small outbuilding to the southwest corner, and removal/modern replacement of the upper portion of the bank barn,retaining the foundation. COA 1988-0512 approved tear off roofing,redeck with plywood; apply new shingles with fiberglass Owens-Corning 3-in-1 type. COA 2011-0310 approved tear off and re-roof with 3 &1 shingle and new decking-felt paper ice shield. Windows are noted on the 1999 survey card as mostly 2/2 light but have since been replaced with 1/1 vinyl double hung(no COA on record)as evidenced in photos dating back to 2011. Current owners have removed the original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on the south and west sides,installing new artificial siding without COA. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Removal of decayed existing siding, animal feces, bat habitat exclusion, beehives, mold, waterlogged and damaged material, removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity. Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications. Please see supporting documentation." See additional written description of project. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a retroactive Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 1. Remove original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on house, a. Completed on south and west sides 2. Install Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material a. Completed on south and west sides Prior to the current owners,the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy, including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as "rotting". In 2012, Commission staff met with new owner Ben Modlin to go over the scope of work, including"exterior routine maintenance and repair",although no Certificate of Appropriateness applications are on file. In May 2017,Commission staff mailed a Minimum Maintenance Standards letter to the Modlin's, commending their efforts to maintain and preserve the historic character of the property that included a reminder that any project that affects the exterior of the building, site, outbuildings, grounds, or landscaping will require review,and a completed COA application,with a reference to the Standards. The siding replacement without COA or Building Permit was discovered by Historic Preservation staff during St Joseph County Historic Landmark site visits on 8/27/19 and reported to the Building Department. The Building Department posted a cease and desist on 8/30/19,followed by a Violation letter 9/18/19. The original wood weatherboard shiplap siding, corner boards, and wood,raised head labels at windows are important in defining the overall historic character of the building. As evidenced by the owner's description and supporting photographs,the original siding demonstrates an advanced state of deterioration and has become permeable to water. Furthermore,the discoveries made inside the wall cavities provides reasonable cause for removing the original siding to remediate the materials in the wall cavities. While the original siding may have the ability to be repaired and made impermeable, it likely will not withstand removal to clean the wall cavities and reinstallation. Staff accepts that the original siding is deteriorated beyond repair. Group B Standards discourage the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding. If the historic material cannot be repaired because of the extent of deterioration or damage,the preferred treatment is replacement in kind with the same material,wood shiplap in this case. Because this approach is not always feasible,provisions are made in Group B Standards to consider the use of a substitute material if it is of the same material as the original, in the same size and texture. The Standard does provide for an alternative material if it duplicates the original, however,the proposed PVC wood simulated siding is not of the same material as the original,is not in the same size (width of the clapboards is scaled up without a shiplap edge) or texture(embossed wood graining,intended to simulate the texture of wood, is not characteristic of real wood siding and is visually inappropriate). The proposed PVC product is not a familiar replacement product;this may in fact be the first application before this Commission. There is precedent for engineered wood products such as HardiePlank and LP SmartSide,as well as traditional vinyl siding, all having a shiplap style option. Applicants have submitted comparison quotes for Celect, cedar siding,vinyl siding,original siding repair, and another for new wood. Below is a summary of the costs for the materials and for painting(where applicable). Celect PVC siding cedar siding vinyl siding—Big C repair original siding tongue&groove -Kimmel siding-Mastercraft $11,230 $60,970 $2,796.55 $23,000 $16,170 Staff has requested more detail about the plan to repair/replace the trim around the windows and at the roof gable to "closely match the original"—specifically which architectural details and what the material will be. The National Park Service Preservation Brief#8 Aluminum and Vinyl Siding on Historic Buildings: The Appropriateness of Substitute Materials for Resurfacing Historic Wood Frame Buildings was consulted for this staff report. SITE VISIT REPORT: N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: Group B The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans, specifications, and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. 1 I B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters thea appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes maynot require a BuildingPermit, a PP g q Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C. Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition, is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark, should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1. Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2. Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding. Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D. Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety, and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The or erson agencyresponsible for demolition of the P landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E. Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary, the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F. Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G. Building Site and Landscaping (These standards apply to both A and B) 1. Required Major landscaping items,trees, 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, green houses,new walls, fountains, fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2. Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs,drawings, and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style,materials, and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees, fencing, walkways, outbuildings, and 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. The 1 1 installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends allowing for the replacement of original siding. Staff does not recommend the proposed replacement siding because it does not conform to Group B Standards with additional consideration for the Notable rating of the property. Staff recommends a replacement siding that more closely resembles the original in style, size, and texture,preferably wood shiplap. Staff recommends that all trim around the windows,the roof gable,and the brackets replicate the original.

X and/or X Signaturcof Owner Signature of Contractor By signing this application I agree to abide by all local regulations related to project and to obtain a Building Department Permit,if applicable. R R Certificate of Appropriateness application Written description of the project (materials to be used, scale, dimensions, construction methods, alterations, etc.) Project involves: removal of decayed existing siding, animal feces, bat habitat exclusion, beehives, moldy materials, waterlogged and damaged material, removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity. Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods following the manufacturer's written specifications. A wet spring revealed significant water issues in our home. Repairs could not wait because of known health risks associated with fecal matter, moldy materials, and stinging insects. We could not subject our young children to these conditions. We chose a wood simulated siding because of the price difference between wood and Architectural Cellular Composite siding. The difference amounted to approximately $53,000. This would cause a financial hardship on our family. Also, it does not include wood trim material or labor to install. The existing deteriorated siding reveal is 5 ;/." the wood simulated siding reveal is 7". The distance from the road to the house is 85'. The distance from the road and the difference in the reveal would not significantly change the look and charm of the house. Along with the siding the deteriorated window trim is being repaired or replaced as necessary. In addition it is our intent to repair the cornicing and ginger bread to closely match the original. Materials to be used (Supplemented with manufactures' brochures and specifications) 7" Wood simulated Celect Cellular Composite siding and trim by Royal. haps_/i www.royalbuildingproducts.com/sites/rbp/files/2018-0 l/celect-contratorhandbook_2018. pdf https://www.rovalbuildingnroducts.com/sites/rbp/files/2019-06/rbn celect homeowner sellshect us_2019_0.pdf Estimated cost of Celect PVC Cellular Composite Siding including trim boards but not including labor. 30 square of Siding $11,230 /i' 4'x8' OSB $1,000 R-15 Rolled faced batted insulation $1,600 Delivery $35.00 Tax 7% $970.55 Total $14,835.55 Estimated Cost of Wood Siding plus painting no trim boards.

Can Celect siding and trim be repainted? • Celect siding panels are most easily cut using Yes. We recommend 100% acrylic latex paint. standard wood cutting tools such as a miter saw If you're going to paint the product a darker color, or circular saw for straight cuts and jig saw consult the paint manufacturer for the LRV (Light around obstacles. The best tool for Celect Trim is Reflectance Value). Painting Celect products with paint a power miter saw. darker than 56% on the LRV scale voids the product warranty. Do the cut ends need to be sealed? There are paint manufacturers that sell coatings No, not necessarily. The only reason to coat specifically designed for PVC. These paints are typically them is if the ends are going to be visible. This referred to as "vinyl-safe" paints or "heat reflective" way the finish color will match the adjacent coatings. sides of the part. Where and when can I use caulking? NOTES The use of caulking should be held at a minimum. If it is desired for esthetic reasons, caulking can be used around window and door trim, etc. Never caulk at any expansion gaps such as in trim pockets or at the top of corners. My existing windows have a built In J channel. Do I still need additional trim around the window? Typically yes. Celect horizontal profiles require 1/2" to 1" expansion gaps along the jams of windows and most built in channels are only 3/4" deep. This means that the end of the panel could contract to the point that it would be visible outside the pocket of the channel. The same holds true for Celect Board and Batten panels only not at the jambs but above and below windows for the same reason. Unless the built in trim is at least 1" in depth, additional trim should be installed. 60 61 CONTRACTOR CHECK LISTS WALL PREPARATION CHECK LIST ❑ Solid,flat, nailable surface (OBS, Plywood, fanfold over solid existing siding) ❑ Weather protective barrier (wrap, etc.) ❑ Code compliant flashings SUGGESTED TOOL &SUPPLIES CHECK LIST O Miter saw (60-80 tooth blade) with stand or table to support material. ❑ Saw gorses or layout table for trim assembly O Cordless drill/driver ❑ Basic hand tools (hammer, utility knife, tape measure level, chalk line, square, etc. ❑ KregJig' (trim assembly) O Circular saw 0 Optional: Jig saw, Router, etc. O Cortex® or Pro-plug®trim screws and Celect plugs ❑ Kreg Blue Coat® 114 course thread ext. . _ screws El Kynar®touch-up bottles ❑ Professional grade PVC Cement 0 Super glue and activator if available ❑ Celect fixture mount blocks (as needed) O Weather resistant 1'/z" - 2" nails (roofing) 62 4.

The Gerry Battles Farm at 60649 Hickory has been purchased by Ben Modlin. He came in this morning to explain the scope of work that he is planning on performing to bring the house up to standards. All the exterior work will be routine maintenance and repair. He's a Purdue grad and is doing most of the work himself. This house has been vacant for many years and the subject of many inquiries to this Office. But Ben is now the owner as of April 25 and it looks like the place is in very good hands.

A single chimney punctuates the roof line. The exterior is wood clapboard with square shingles in the gables. The asphalt shingle roof is cross-gabled with cornice returns and a very wide rake;frieze and moulded cornice. One-over-one double-hung windows with moulded entabulatures throughout;third-story gable has both nine-over-one and six-over-one double-hung windows. Two front doors lead onto the full-width front porch with grouped Doric columns and balustrades;the moulded cornice has wood brackets at either end of the porch fascia that are spiraled. ALTERATIONS: A garage built sometime after 1917 for this structure stood behind 435 W Lamonte Terrace;this was torn down sometime prior to 1998. Multiple alterations to the rear of the structure have enclosed and reconfigured the rear entrance/porches. The bases of some of the front porch columns have been replaced. A wooden front stair railing replaced what appears to be a metal railing sometime after 1987 and before 2003. Administrative Approval#2019-0930 allowed for the repair of the chimney flashing,roof,soffit,porch roof,and cedar shingle siding,as well as the reinstallation of gutters as needed. APPLICATION ITEMS: "See attached: . • . ••. - •- • . - 1 -- . - • 5. Wood siding& • • 9.Replace exterior doors 10 lights." DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 1. Resizing of second story rear window(at northeast corner). The current window receives constant moisture contact from the adjacent roof,leading to accelerated deterioration. Applicant seeks to decrease the overall size of the window enclosure to`raise up'the window sill above the adjacent exterior roof line. a. Window Configuration i. The existing sashes have been retained and appear in decent/restorable condition. These could be cut down in size to accommodate the new window size. The frame of the window has been removed and appears to have deteriorated and would need to be reconstructed. This new framing would require skilled carpentry work. Staff would prefer to see original material(that is in good condition)be re-used in the future window enclosure. ii. In lieu of using the original window sashes,staff would consider appropriate window replacement,but no product proposal has been submitted. b. Exterior siding: i. New wood material would be used to replicate the existing siding. 2. The existing rear door would be replaced with a door as indicated in the imagery. New framing will be constructed as needed. SITE VISIT REPORT:Preservation Specialist Toering visited the site on Monday,September 30th,2019 to discuss the proposed project and photograph the project areas. Windows and doors described as being re-used are in good/stable condition and would make excellent candidates for transfer to the new locations. Specialist Toering took the opportunity to give an introduction to the construction and repair of original wood windows with the Pobanz. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:CHAPIN PARK 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 materials 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 repellant 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. B.ROOFS AND ROOFING Roof shapes in the district encompass all the various designs found in residential structures:hipped,gabled,gambrel,flat and combinations of these.Roofs are covered with a variety of materials such as asphalt,asbestos,wood and slate shingles as well as clay tiles.Residences in most cases have wood fascias with gutters and downspouts.The fascias of some vinyl-and aluminum-sided houses are covered with the same materials. Required The existing shape and type of materials of the roof shall be retained.All architectural features,which give the roof its essential character,shall be retained,including dormer windows,cupolas,cornices,brackets,chimneys,cresting and weather vanes. Recommended The original shape and materials of the roof should be restored.Particular effort should be made to retain materials such as slate, tile and other unique materials not commonly found in new construction. Roof covering which is deteriorated beyond repair should be replaced with new material that matches as closely as possible the original in composition,size,shape,color and texture.Gutters and downspouts are often a necessary adjunct in order to prevent deterioration of the structure;they should be maintained whenever possible or replaced with a style comparable and suitable to the architectural period. Prohibited Nothing shall be done to change the essential character of the roof as viewed from a street by adding architectural features or large unsightly fixtures,or by using materials inappropriate to the style of the house.The roof shall not be stripped of architectural features important to its character. Not Recommended Overhanging eaves,soffit,brackets and gables should not be covered or enclosed when adding siding to a building. 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. 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. Not Recommended Original porch details should not be replaced with materials representing a different period or style from the original. III.NEW CONSTRUCTION New construction includes any new building or structure built within the boundaries of the historic district,or any new addition to an existing building. New construction should be designed considering the appearance,scale,styles and setbacks of the other buildings in the neighborhood. New work may be contemporary or may suggest motifs from historic buildings in the district. A.HEIGHT AND PROPORTION The majority of the structures in the district are two stories in height and have square or rectangular plans. There are several houses that have L-or T-shaped or rambling ground plans. There are a few single-story cottages and one-and one-and-a-half story bungalows. The most prevalent facade proportions are between a 1:1 and 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 in the same block. Facade proportion shall be established by permitting no structure with a façade wider or narrower than those existing in the same block. Additions to the existing buildings shall be related in height and proportion to the existing structure. Recommended Design of new construction should be compatible in character and mood to the building or neighborhood. Prohibited Additions that would add new height or change the existing facade of a building,and change its scale and architectural character shall not be considered. Not Recommended New stories should not be added nor existing stories be removed which would destroy important architectural details,features and spaces of the building. My style or period of architecture that is incompatible with the existing should not be permitted in the new additions. B.BUILDING MATERIALS Wall materials in the district range from brick,stucco and wood clapboard and shingles,to aluminum,vinyl and fiberboard/composite siding. Required Exterior materials used on a new structure shall be compatible in scale,texture and color(as pertains to masonry)with adjacent structures. Materials used on an addition to an existing structure shall related to the existing or original materials of that structure. Also,as much of the original structure as possible shall be retained so that the addition could be removed without damage to the basic structure and appearance of the building. Recommended Alternative or composite siding may be used when it is the only feasible alternative. This siding should be compatible with the original size and style and with the materials of other buildings in the district. Prohibited Inappropriate materials such as asbestos,asphalt,cast stone or artificial brick shall not be used. Not Recommended Glass blocks should not be used. Concrete block should not be used for anything other than the foundations. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends approval of the project as submitted. Staff would like the original sashes to be resized and reconfigured in the new smaller window opening. Prepared by Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist Recommendation by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator PETITIONER COMMENTS: Mr.Pobanz stated that they believed that instead of resizing the window that they believe they could move it away from the roof line. Ms.Pobanz clarified that the sashes are fine,but the frame is rotted. They won't have to resize or replace the sashes. Commissioner Hertel thanked for the applicants for buying the house,as it has a lot of potential. Mr.Pobanz stated that they won't be able to get to finishing the window this winter,so they have installed a temporary window covering in the interim until it can be fixed. Commissioner Hertel clarified that the Commission's motion should include this temporary window,with a condition related to the time frame of its replacement. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: N/A COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Hertel stated it is very obvious that this is a bad window. Commissioner Hertel then asked if they had considered installing a downspout from the to-be-installed gutter to draw water away from the sill of the window. Ms.Pobanz explained that part of the problem is that the gutter above had failed and needed to be replaced,that it should help to draw the water away from window. Commissioner Stalheim stated he would support the resizing the window to allow for better flashing. Ms.Pobanz stated that moving the window will allow for additional flashing height,that they would be moving the window 18". That the siding would be replaced with new wood cedar siding. Commissioner Hertel asked for more information about the door being installed at the rear. Ms.Pobanz stated that it is an interior door,that they hoped to install a storm door on the outside. The new door would be taller than the existing door by approximately a foot. The light would be moved above the door to accommodate this newer size. REOPENED PUBLIC DISCUSSION: Dr.Joan Downs-Krostenko,849 Forest Avenue:The door is very beautiful interior door,it is very weird to put an interior door on the outside of the house. You would have never seen a door of that format on the exterior of the house. I think it is going to look funny. I think it is a beautiful door,and I can see why you would like to have a door with plenty of glass in it;but the exterior door for the back of the house should not be that door. Commissioner Ponder made a motion to approve the 1)resizing or moving the second story rear window,2)temporary window installation for the duration of the Certificate's approval,3) replacement of wood siding with new cedar siding as needed,and 4)replacement of the rear door with the supplied wood door with the storm door remanded to staff.Seconded by Commissioner Stalheim. Four in favor,none opposed. Vote: 4—0. Motion to remand COA#2019-0923A to staff is passed. 2. 60649 Hickory Road #2019-1007A #127-78 Local Landmark Representation: Ben Modlin,60649 Hickory Road, South Bend,IN 46614 Came Modlin,60649 Hickory Road, South Bend,IN 46614 STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: October 8,2019 Application Number: 2019-1007A Property Location: 60649 Hickory Road Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder:Gabled-Ell/Stick/1869/"Gerry Battles Farm" Property Owner: Ben and Carrie Modlin Landmark or District Designation: Historic Landmark(Ordinance#127-78) Rating: Notable DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: 2-1/2 story Gabled-Ell/Stick style on a rough dressed stone foundation.Roof is cross plan with gable front and jerkin head side gable.Front porch has a single turned post,rear porch is slightly projecting with turned posts and a concrete stoop.The walls are original wood weatherboard shiplap siding with corner boards.Front windows have a wood,raised head with labels where other windows have plain labels.There is a two-story bay window with scrolled brackets.The side bay has a jerkin head roof with art nouveau scrolled decorations on the fascia.Front gable end has an ornate scrollwork decorative fascia,with pendants.There are two front doors with transoms,one with a full light. ALTERATIONS: The St.Joseph County ordinance in 1978 designating and establishing the Historic Landmark originally included 80 acres.The parcel has since been subdivided and was annexed to the City of South Bend in 1989.While the farm mostly retains the plan of its original buildings,changes to the property without COA are evidenced on aerial maps including the removal of a silo,removal of a small outbuilding to the southwest corner,and removal/modem replacement of the upper portion of the bank barn,retaining the foundation. COA 1988-0512 approved tear off roofing,redeck with plywood;apply new shingles with fiberglass Owens-Corning 3-in-1 type.COA 2011-0310 approved tear off and re-roof with 3&l shingle and new decking-felt paper ice shield. Windows are noted on the 1999 survey card as mostly 2/2 light but have since been replaced with 1/l vinyl double hung(no COA on record)as evidenced in photos dating back to 2011. Current owners have removed the original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on the south and west sides,installing new artificial siding without COA. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Removal ofdecayed existing siding.animal feces.bat habitat exclusion.beehives.mold. waterlogged and damaged material,removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity.Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation,new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap,new flashings,new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications.Please see supporting documentation." See additional written description of project. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a retroactive Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 3. Remove original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on house, a. Completed on south and west sides 4. Install Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material a. Completed on south and west sides Prior to the current owners,the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy,including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as"rotting".In 2012,Commission staff met with new owner Ben Modlin to go over the scope of work,including"exterior routine maintenance and repair",although no Certificate of Appropriateness applications are on file. In May 2017,Commission staff mailed a Minimum Maintenance Standards letter to the Modlin's,commending their efforts to maintain and preserve the historic character of the property that included a reminder that any project that affects the exterior of the building,site,outbuildings,grounds,or landscaping will require review,and a completed COA application,with a reference to the Standards. The siding replacement without COA or Building Permit was discovered by Historic Preservation staff during St Joseph County Historic Landmark site visits on 8/27/19 and reported to the Building Department.The Building Department posted a cease and desist on 8/30/19,followed by a Violation letter 9/18/19. The original wood weatherboard shiplap siding,corner boards,and wood,raised head labels at windows are important in defining the overall historic character of the building.As evidenced by the owner's description and supporting photographs,the original siding demonstrates an advanced state of deterioration and has become permeable to water.Furthermore,the discoveries made inside the wall cavities provides reasonable cause for removing the original siding to remediate the materials in the wall cavities.While the original siding may have the ability to be repaired and made impermeable,it likely will not withstand removal to clean the wall cavities and reinstallation.Staff accepts that the original siding is deteriorated beyond repair. Group B Standards discourage the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.If the historic material cannot be repaired because of the extent of deterioration or damage,the preferred treatment is replacement in kind with the same material,wood shiplap in this case.Because this approach is not always feasible,provisions are made in Group B Standards to consider the use of a substitute material if it is of the same material as the original,in the same size and texture. The Standard does provide for an alternative material if it duplicates the original,however,the proposed PVC wood simulated siding is not of the same material as the original,is not in the same size(width of the clapboards is scaled up without a shiplap edge)or texture(embossed wood graining,intended to simulate the texture of wood,is not characteristic of real wood siding and is visually inappropriate).The proposed PVC product is not a familiar replacement product;this may in fact be the first application before this Commission.There is precedent for engineered wood products such as HardiePlank and LP SmartSide, as well as traditional vinyl siding,all having a shiplap style option. Applicants have submitted comparison quotes for Celect,cedar siding,vinyl siding,original siding repair,and another for new wood.Below is a summary of the costs for the materials and for painting(where applicable). Celect PVC siding cedar siding vinyl siding–Big C repair original siding tongue&groove –Kimmel siding-Mastercraft $11,230 $60,970 $2,796.55 $23,000 $16,170 Staff has requested more detail about the plan to repair/replace the trim around the windows and at the roof gable to"closely match the original"–specifically which architectural details and what the material will be. The National Park Service Preservation Brief#8 Aluminum and Vinyl Siding on Historic Buildings:The Appropriateness of Substitute Materials for Resurfacing Historic Wood Frame Buildings was consulted for this staff report. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:Group B The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment, renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans,specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1.Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary,the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F.Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping (These standards apply to both A and B) I.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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,green houses,new walls,fountains, fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2.Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs, drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style, materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees,fencing, walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends allowing for the replacement of original siding.Staff does not recommend the proposed replacement siding because it does not conform to Group B Standards with additional consideration for the Notable rating of the property.Staff recommends a replacement siding that more closely resembles the original in style,size, and texture,preferably wood shiplap.Staff recommends that all trim around the windows,the roof gable,and the brackets replicate the original. Prepared by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator and Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist PETITIONER COMMENTS: Mr.Modlin stated that the costs as summarized in the staff report were incorrect. The cedar siding was$40,000 for$70,000 plus,and that more detailed information was requested. Mr.Modlin estimated that it would cost$17,500 to paint. Mr.Modlin had Danny Kimmel estimated that it would cost$23,000 to paint the cedar siding. From the tongue-and- groove estimate was for labor and installation,and that was a$43,000 estimation from Mastercraft construction. Total for wood siding would be$117,000 or so. Commissioner Hertel asked for clarification,as she believed that Mr.Modlin had been doing the installation. Mr.Modlin confirmed,yes,that they were asked to give more of an estimate if they were to hire the project out. Mr.Modlin estimated that it would take 350 man hours to paint,at a value of approximately$17,500; Danny Kimmel estimated it would cost$23,000 to paint. To install the siding,Mr.Modlin estimated$40,000,Mastercraft estimated$43,000. The painting estimate did not include tax. Commissioner Stalheim asked if the vapor barrier was included in the cost. Mr.Modlin confirmed that vapor barrier was included,but it does not include the mesh underlayment layer. The reason wood was included was to show the massive cost difference. Just the wood alone is a financial hardship. They cannot afford the wood,they cannot afford to have it installed,they cannot afford to have it painted. Commissioner Hertel asked if Mr.Modlin is updating his application. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that they were not updating the application,they were clarifying that there were three cost estimate options and not five. Commissioner Hertel clarified that the three options are 1)select PVC siding at$11,230,2)the Cedar siding at$40,470 plus painting and labor,and 3)vinyl siding. Administrator Feasel clarified her interpretation of the Kimmel quote(which read"scrape and paint")as having been to rehabilitate the original siding,it was clarified that this was to paint all of the new material to be installed and the old trim and eave details material. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: Mr.Mark Modlin,519 Benton Street,Mishawaka—the father of the applicant. Mr.Modlin spoke of how the project"was going to be a big undertaking,and that they were able to get the house but they were probably the last best hope for the house. The house was vacant and in ruin for a long time. It had a lot of ongoing deterioration,but I think he made a pretty good purchase with a good effort to make it a home. And I think in making it a home,they are heading in the right direct. The costs for replication of a lot of the products are prohibitive,a homeowner who is just getting started. It is a beautiful home,and I think it could be a very long term home for these kids." Joan Downs-Krostenko,849 Forest Avenue—"I have restored nine houses,and have put lots of new wood siding where original wood siding was damaged or had been rotted out,so I'm familiar with that. And I've painted all of these houses,so I am familiar with that. My question with this is—is every piece of siding on that house rotten? Is your bid to take it all off and replace it? Every bit of wood on the house is rotten? Mr.Modlin stated every bit of siding is rotten. Ms.Downs-Krostenko stated:"So every bit of siding is rotten. [Specialist Toering],is that accurate?" Commissioner Hertel stated that there were two areas that have already been replaced. Administrator Feasel stated that staff has not conducted a site visit to determine the condition of the structure. Ms.Downs-Krostenko stated that she had never seen a house where all of the wood was rotten. In most cases,you need to replace 10-15%of the wood. This could be the exception,but mostly you do not see that all of the wood needs to be replaced. In her experience,she has never heard of any case where all of the wood is fully rotten. Finally,the holy grail of historic preservation is to avoid vinyl siding,plastic siding,metal siding,all the kinds of replacement siding that do not replicate the material,texture,reveal of the original siding,and often times ruin the trim. That is the entire point of what we do here,and I do appreciate the cost of what you are doing here,because I have confronted it exactly like you have. Many,many times. I have always been able to salvage most of that original wood. Scraping,priming, all of that is expensive,but I have found ways to do that inexpensively,in pieces where I can afford to do it,a little bit at a time. Mr.Modlin stated that there were significant amounts of bat feces. Mr.Modlin,Sr.stated that there was also rot,and mice feces. It's a health hazard. Ms.Downs-Krostenko reiterated that the agenda of historic preservation is to replace with in kind materials,and that can be done over time. When you do open the door for alternative materials,then you might have a really big project that has all of these problems,but then the next project comes in and its smaller,and the applicant says"but you let these people do it,you let them put up vinyl." Then we are in a real big giant pile of bad stuff. COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Hertel stated that,if this this was a new project,the`things underneath',we would not know. In those other projects,as those things are revealed,they would be addressed. So the bees,the cellulose insulation would be addressed as it is found to make the home habitable. Commissioner Stalheim stated that Commission would support that action. Commissioner Hertel explained that the applicant has lived in the house for multiple years,that they have known the COA process(as noted in the letter that is included in your packet dated 2017). That the applicant received glowing statements regarding the preservation of the structure at that time,"we are thrilled to see the condition of your home and commend your efforts to preserve your historic property." Commissioner Ponder asked about the alternative materials that had been mentioned. Administrator Feasel explained that staff included those materials as they had been previously approved by the Commission, that it was unknown what those materials would cost,and that staff would prefer an in-kind replacement with wood ship-lap siding. Commissioner Stalheim stated they may be offered,but they be more expensive because this is an atypical mill pattern. Administrator Feasel stated that she had interpreted the Kimmel quote as a quote for rehabilitation of the existing siding,and that Staff has not seen the material,nor has an estimate has been received. The house is more than likely balloon- frame construction,so an expert may know of a way to open up the walls to remove the insulation material. Commissioner Brazinksy stated that she had owned a similar house in Wisconsin and that they removed the bottom boards and removed the insulation. She then stripped and painted the siding. The house was not a(designated)historic home. Administrator Feasel stated that were this a proactive application,that would have been the first thing that Staff would have suggested to the applicant,what is the cost of doing that. Because this project is partially retroactive,it's taken us a bit off guard. Were it proactive,that's how we would have addressed this project. I think that's missing from this project application. Mr.Modlin stated that there is no vapor barrier,and that they'd have to remove it all. That doing all wood is prohibitively expensive. Commissioner Hertel explained her opposition to PVC and vinyl siding and expressed that it is a responsibility to uphold the historic integrity of these homes,especially ones like this one,which were here long before much of anything else in the area. Commissioner Stalheim inquired as to what the plan was as to the decorative elements on the roof and over the windows. Mr.Modlin stated that he is in the process of repairing those,and that some have gone missing,and he's going to have to re-mill them as close as possible,with marine grade plywood,CNC'd out. Commissioner Stalheim asked if all would be replaced. Ms.Modlin stated that that would depend on the condition of the remaining pieces and indicated in the imagery on the projector that some of the pieces are hanging dangerously off the house. Mr.Modlin stated that he thought the new material looks good from the street. Commissioner Hertel expressed that she believes you can tell the difference between PVC,vinyl,and wood. She further stated that she agreed with Dr.Downs-Krostenko that it seems impossible that all the siding is bad,and that the replacement material should have the proper look. That there is evidence of long-term neglect. That she is hesitant to make a quick judgement. That she would like to see a better estimate as to the current siding condition. That replacing some of the material would be cheaper than replacing all of the material. Commissioner Brazinsky asked how long of a continuance would be needed to get an estimate. Administrator Feasel stated that it would be on the applicant to talk with restoration experts to determine the cost and time of that kind of project. That staff's role at this point would be negligible,as we have already determined the siding to be deteriorated beyond repair. Commissioner Brazinsky reiterated that the siding looked identical to what she had in Wisconsin,that had insects and bees nests. Commissioner Brazinsky stated that she was between outright denial and continuing for more information. Commissioner Hertel explained that the Commission could deny the application as it currently exists,which would require the applicant to reapply for the exterior changes again. The Commission could offer a continuance where you could get additional information that the Commission is requesting and come back at the next meeting with that information (without paying additional application fees). Commissioner Hertel asked the applicant what they would like to do. Mr.Modlin asked if they could discuss the options. Commissioner Hertel stated that the meeting could not be postponed. Mr.Modlin asked what they should do in the interim regarding the health concerns related to the condition of the house. Commissioner Hertel stated that they should get with their contractor immediately,but that these conditions don't appear to be new problems. As homeowners they should be combatting any mold or other biological concerns with the appropriate bleach mixture. Mr.Modlin stated that they've tried and that they are this point,and that they believe the house exterior is beyond repair. When they were sitting in the basement when the tornado came through and they saw bat feces raining down from the wall because the rain was coming in,it was actionable. The only way that was feasible was to take the old off and put the new on. Commissioner Hertel reiterated that they are still at the same point as five minutes ago:the Commission can deny the application,or give a continuance to find additional information. Mr.Modlin Sr.interjected that you have to have the money to be able to do the work. Mr.Modlin asked clarified that the options are continuation or denial. Commissioner Hertel explained that the Commission's feelings are apparent,and that the Commission wants to empower you to make the house better. Ms.Modlin asked what the time frame of the continuation would be. Legal Counsel Kennedy explained that the next meeting would within the time frame of the current application. Commissioner Stalheim expressed concerns regarding the weather. Administrator Feasel expressed that any additional information would need to be received by the COA deadline date. Mr.Modlin asked what the status of the Red Tag from the Building Department would be. Administrator Feasel explained that Staff would contact the Building Department to inform them that the project was still under review and more information would be available in late November.

Two chimneys and a later heater exhaust punctuate the roof line. Exterior is brick with a stretcher bond,stone sills and lintels. The roof is a shallow gable with short eave overhang and large frieze. The soffit was enclosed prior to landmarking. Two wings were added flanking the original structure,later windows were installed in those additions. Windows are double-hung 6- over-6 on the second story and double-hung 6-over-9 on the first story. Some fixed windows are found in the original structure. Casements exist in the later additions. A front porch spans the original structure,a side entrance has a stepped stoop. ALTERATIONS: Two wing additions were added sometime in the 20th century(sometime after 1946?). COA#1986-0903 allowed for the construction of an addition to the west side of the garage,as well as reroofing of the south addition. COA #1986-1008 allowed for re-roofing and aluminum soffits on the south wing addition. A`cabana'was constructed attached to the garage without COA in 1987. COA#1987-0807 allowed for the construction of the front porch. COA#1990-0606 allowed for reconstruction of the deteriorated chimney with new bricks. COA#1997-0829 allowed for masonry repairs to the main chimney. COA#1996-0912 allowed for additional repairs and modifications to the masonry of the main chimney. COA #2001-0417 allowed for the repair/replacement-in-kind of the split-rail fence on the property,landscaping,tree trimming. COA #2003-0929 allowed for the removal and replacement of exterior storm doors and entrance doors. COA#2006-0329-1 allowed for the re-roofing of portions of the garage,as well as repair of the damages to the main roof. COA#2006-0720A allowed for the re-roof of the main structure and garage with Tamko Heritage 30-year shingles,as well as the replacement of the static air vents. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Overlay metal on shingles,remove stove vent. (Standing-seam horizontal roof by Central States Manufacturing,Inc.)" DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 1. Installation of a Horizon-Lock(produced by Central States Manufacturing,Inc.)standing seam,textured painted steel roof over the existing asphalt shingles, a. Panels are 16",fabricated in varying lengths to accommodate different roof sections. b. 13"ridge cap(painted) 2. Remove the stove vent on the southern wing addition. The proposed material is a departure from the existing material. Metal was a common roofing material in the 19th century, although no record of it being used on this structure can be found. The 1932 Assessor Card Indicates that wood shingles were in use in the early part of the 200 century(this is indicated by`W.SH'on the assessor card). Standing seam metal roofs enjoy a long lifespan,if installed properly(by comparison,the current shingles are believed to be thirteen years old). Staff expresses one point of concern:if the new material is laid on top of the existing shingles,the flashing of the new metal roof will come into conflict with the existing stone window sills,specifically at the front porch and at the rear second story window(where the window air conditioning unit is located in the supplied photographs). The front porch design(when originally submitted in 1987)was modified to ensure the second floor window sills would not be impacted by the roof line. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:Local Landmark"Group B" The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans,specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: I.Structure:--Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary,the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F.Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping(These standards apply to both A and B) 1.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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,green houses,new walls,fountains, fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2.Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs, drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style, materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees,fencing, walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends approval of the project as submitted,with the expressed concern that the stone window sill should not be adversely impacted by the addition of the metal roof material. Prepared by Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist Recommendation by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator PETITIONER COMMENTS: Mr.Bowers explained that the window sill in the back is already blocked by the existing roof line,and that in the front the new roof may impact the sills at the seam locations.. He then supplied additional pictures regarding the proposed installation of the roof material. He further explained previous examples that he had installed that were similar to this project. Ms.McKelvey stated that she wanted to bring it back to a historic condition,and that she didn't paint it. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: Ms.Downs-Krostenko stated that standing-seam metal roofs were not installed in this area north of the Ohio River valley. Does the Commission have any discussion or concerns of color as to metal roofs? She expressed concern that color should be looked into by the Commission going forward. Mr.Bowers responded that he had seen tins roofs installed. COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Stalheim stated that fortunately they want a dark colored roof. Commissioner Hertel stated that there is concern about color going forward. Commissioner Hertel also expressed concern regarding the front windows. Commissioner Stalheim asked how the flashing is installed into and beneath the windows. Mr.Bowers expressed that they would not adversely impact the windows. Commissioner Hertel expressed that the Commission wants the homeowner to have a long-term roof solution,so is protective on behalf of the applicant. Commissioner Hertel expressed concern regarding moisture infiltration into the existing shingles that could cause other problems. Mr.Bowers explained the various layers that are installed beneath the roof material to both protect the roof material,as well as to create moisture barrier,where it runs the moisture out. Mr.Bowers further discussed historic barn structures that have metal roofs that have lasted one hundred years. Commissioner Stalheim confirmed that laying metal roof over existing shingles is common. Mr.Bowers expressed that these advances have helped measurably. Commissioner Stalheim asked about the widths of the panels themselves. Mr.Bowers explained that the residential width is 16". Commercial widths are 18". Commissioner Ponder asked about the gutters and soffits. Mr.Bowers explained that no change would be made to the gutters or soffits. Commissioner Stalheim mentioned the removal of the stovepipe. Mr.McKelvey joked that he would not be cutting wood. Commissioner Ponder made a motion to approve COA#2019-1011A. Seconded by Commissioner Brazinsky. Four in favor,none opposed. Vote: 4—0. Motion to continue COA#2019-1011A is passed.

"Gerry Battles Farm" Y —� Property Owner: Ben and Carrie Modlin Landmark or District Designation: Historic Landmark(Ordinance #127-78) Rating: Notable DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: 2-1/2 story Gabled-Ell/Stick style on a rough dressed stone foundation. Roof is cross plan with gable front and jerkin head side gable. Front porch has a single turned post,rear porch is slightly projecting with turned posts and a concrete stoop. The walls are original wood weatherboard shiplap siding with corner boards.Front windows have a wood,raised head with labels where other windows have plain labels. There is a two-story bay window with scrolled brackets. The side bay has a jerkin head roof with art nouveau scrolled decorations on the fascia. Front gable end has an ornate scrollwork decorative fascia,with pendants. There are two front doors with transoms,one with a full light. ALTERATIONS: The St.Joseph County ordinance in 1978 designating and establishing the Historic Landmark originally included 80 acres. The parcel has since been subdivided and was annexed to the City of South Bend in 1989. While the farm mostly retains the plan of its original buildings,changes to the property without COA are evidenced on aerial maps including the removal of a silo, removal of a small outbuilding to the southwest corner, and removal/modern replacement of the upper portion of the bank barn,retaining the foundation. COA 1988-0512 approved tear off roofing,redeck with plywood; apply new shingles with fiberglass Owens-Corning 3-in-1 type. COA 2011-0310 approved tear off and re-roof with 3 &1 shingle and new decking-felt paper ice shield. Windows are noted on the 1999 survey card as mostly 2/2 light but have since been replaced with 1/1 vinyl double hung(no COA on record)as evidenced in photos dating back to 2011. Current owners have removed the original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on the south and west sides,installing new artificial siding without COA. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Removal of decayed existing siding, animal feces, bat habitat exclusion, beehives, mold, waterlogged and damaged material, removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity.Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications. Please see supporting documentation." See additional written description of project. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a retroactive Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 1. Remove original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on house, a. Completed on south and west sides 2. Install Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material a. Completed on south and west sides f T Prior to the current owners,the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy, including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as"rotting". In 2012, Commission staff met with new owner Ben Modlin to go over the scope of work, including"exterior routine maintenance and repair",although no Certificate of Appropriateness applications are on file. In May 2017,Commission staff mailed a Minimum Maintenance Standards letter to the Modlin's, commending their efforts to maintain and preserve the historic character of the property that included a reminder that any project that affects the exterior of the building, site,outbuildings, grounds, or landscaping will require review, and a completed COA application,with a reference to the Standards. The siding replacement without COA or Building Permit was discovered by Historic Preservation staff during St Joseph County Historic Landmark site visits on 8/27/19 and reported to the Building Department. The Building Department posted a cease and desist on 8/30/19,followed by a Violation letter 9/18/19. The original wood weatherboard shiplap siding, corner boards, and wood,raised head labels at windows are important in defining the overall historic character of the building. As evidenced by the owner's description and supporting photographs,the original siding demonstrates an advanced state of deterioration and has become permeable to water.Furthermore,the discoveries made inside the wall cavities provides reasonable cause for removing the original siding to remediate the materials in the wall cavities. While the original siding may have the ability to be repaired and made impermeable,it likely will not withstand removal to clean the wall cavities and reinstallation. Staff accepts that the original siding is deteriorated beyond repair. Group B Standards discourage the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding. If the historic material cannot be repaired because of the extent of deterioration or damage,the preferred treatment is replacement in kind with the same material,wood shiplap in this case. Because this approach is not always feasible,provisions are made in Group B Standards to consider the use of a substitute material if it is of the same material as the original, in the same size and texture. The Standard does provide for an alternative material if it duplicates the original, however,the proposed PVC wood simulated siding is not of the same material as the original,is not in the same size (width of the clapboards is scaled up without a shiplap edge)or texture(embossed wood graining, intended to simulate the texture of wood, is not characteristic of real wood siding and is visually inappropriate). The proposed PVC product is not a familiar replacement product; this may in fact be the first application before this Commission. There is precedent for engineered wood products such as HardiePlank and LP SmartSide,as well as traditional vinyl siding, all having a shiplap style option. Applicants have submitted comparison quotes for Celect(application item), cedar siding,vinyl siding, and original siding repair. A summary(by staff) of the costs for the materials and for painting(where applicable)has been redacted from this report. Staff has requested more detail about the plan to repair/replace the trim around the windows and at the roof gable to "closely match the original"—specifically which architectural details and what the material will be. Results of the October 21 Historic Preservation Commission public hearing are: Commissioner Ponder made a motion to continue application#2019-1007A until the November 18th meeting.This continuance is to allow the applicant time to research and provide additional information about restoration of the existing wood siding, including: removing the bottom shiplap to allow for the removal of debris, ascertaining an estimate as to the amount of siding material that could be considered salvageable,estimates as to the cost of the restoration of that salvageable material. This information is requested by Tuesday,November 12th. Seconded by Commissioner Brazinsky. Four in favor,none opposed. Vote: 4—0.Motion to continue COA#2019-1007A until the November 18th meeting is passed. Applicants have submitted two additional proposals, see: Clayton Hoover and Sons for salvaging remaining siding and mill new siding and Mignery& Son Contracting for vinyl siding. The National Park Service Preservation Brief#8 Aluminum and Vinyl Siding on Historic Buildings: The Appropriateness of Substitute Materials for Resurfacing Historic Wood Frame Buildings was consulted for this staff report. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: Group B The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans, specifications, and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B. Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C. Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition, is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark, should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1. Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b. siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding. Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D. Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety, and demolition is the only alternative, documentation by way of photographs, measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E. Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary, the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F. Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping (These standards apply to both A and B) 1. Required Major landscaping items, trees,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, green houses, new walls, fountains, fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2. Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs, drawings, and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style,materials, and scale. 3. Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items, trees, fencing, walkways, outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends allowing for the replacement of original siding. Staff does not recommend the proposed replacement siding because it does not conform to Group B Standards with additional consideration for the Notable rating of the property. Staff recommends a replacement siding that more closely resembles the original in style, size, and texture,preferably wood shiplap. Staff recommends that all trim around the windows,the roof gable, and the brackets replicate the original.

Certificate of Appropriateness application Written description of the project (materials to be used, scale, dimensions, construction methods, alterations, etc.) Project involves: removal of decayed existing siding, animal feces, bat habitat exclusion, beehives, moldy materials, waterlogged and damaged material, removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity. Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation,new exterior grade sheathing, tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods following the manufacturer's written specifications. A wet spring revealed significant water issues in our home. Repairs could not wait because of known health risks associated with fecal matter, moldy materials,and stinging insects. We could not subject our young children to these conditions. We chose a wood simulated siding because of the price difference between wood and Architectural Cellular Composite siding. The difference amounted to approximately $53,000. This would cause a financial hardship on our family. Also,it does not include wood trim material or labor to install. The existing deteriorated siding reveal is 5 '" the wood simulated siding reveal is 7". The distance from the road to the house is 85'. The distance from the road and the difference in the reveal would not significantly change the look and charm of the house. Along with the siding the deteriorated window trim is being repaired or replaced as necessary. In addition it is our intent to repair the cornicing and ginger bread to closely match the original. Materials to be used (Supplemented with manufactures' brochures and specifications) 7" Wood simulated Celect Cellular Composite siding and trim by Royal. https://www.royalbuildingproducts.com/sites/rbprtiles/20I 8-01/eelect-contratorhandbookj018. pdf https://www.rovalbuildingoroducts.com/sites/rbp/files/2019-06/rbn_celect_homcowner sellsheet us 2019 0.pdf Y i Clayton Hoover and Sons 21047 Morning Dove Trail South Bend, IN 46614 (574)288-8630 claytonHoover1@gmail.com P ro p o s a l PROPOSAL# 1575 DATE 11/11/2019 ADDRESS Ben Modlin 60649 Hickory Road South Bend, IN 46614 PLEASE DETACH TOP PORTION AND RETURN WITH YOUR PAYMENT.

Can Celect siding and trim be repainted? Celect siding panels are most easily cut using Yes. We recommend 100% acrylic latex paint. standard wood cutting tools such as a miter saw If you're going to paint the product a darker color, or circular saw for straight cuts and jig saw consult the paint manufacturer for the LRV (Light around obstacles. The best tool for Celect Trim is Reflectance Value). Painting Celect products with paint a power miter saw. darker than 56% on the LRV scale voids the product warranty. Do the cut ends need to be sealed? There are paint manufacturers that sell coatings No, not necessarily. The only reason to coat specifically designed for PVC. These paints are typically them is if the ends are going to be visible. This referred to as "vinyl-safe" paints or "heat reflective" way the finish color will match the adjacent coatings. sides of the part. Where and when can I use caulking? NOTES The use of caulking should be held at a minimum. If it is desired for esthetic reasons, caulking can be used around window and door trim, etc. Never caulk at any expansion gaps such as in trim pockets or at the top of corners. My existing windows have a built in J channel. Do I still need additional trim around the window? Typically yes. Celect horizontal profiles require '/2" to 1" expansion gaps along the jams of windows and most built in channels are only 3/4" deep. This means that the end of the panel could contract to the point that it would be visible outside the pocket of the channel. The same holds true for Celect Board and Batten panels only not at the jambs but above and below windows for the same reason. Unless the built in trim is at least 1" in depth, additional trim should be installed. 60 61 CONTRACTOR CHECK LISTS WALL PREPARATION CHECK LIST ❑ Solid,flat, nailable surface (OBS, Plywood, fanfold over solid existing siding) ❑ Weather protective barrier (wrap, etc.) ❑ Code compliant flashings SUGGESTED TOOL &SUPPLIES CHECK LIST ❑ Miter saw (60-80 tooth blade) with stand or table to support material. ❑ Saw gorses or layout table for trim assembly ❑ Cordless drill/driver ❑ Basic hand tools (hammer, utility knife, tape measure level, chalk line, square, etc. O Kreg JigR (trim assembly) ❑ Circular saw ❑ Optional: Jig saw, Router, etc. ❑ Cortex® or Pro-plug®trim screws and Celect plugs ❑ Kreg Blue Coat® 11/4 course thread ext. screws ❑ Kynar® touch-up bottles ❑ Professional grade PVC Cement ❑ Super glue and activator if available ❑ Celect fixture mount blocks (as needed) ❑ Weather resistant 11/2" - 2" nails (roofing) 62 1 CELLULAR COMPOSITE SIDING [3Y ROYAL th0 ROYAL •Building Products 91 Royal Group Crescent Woodbridge, Ontario, Canada L4H 1X9 1.855.5CEI ECT celect.royalbuildingproducts.com A Westlake Company 0118 RECEIPT DATE _07 1 10. 065623 RECEIVED FROM �4__.L _ V_C� $ a • 06 l LtiAi - n-1 DOLLARS OFOR RENT LOQ , I /` CPFOR _ --- 10107/20 — 11 ACCOUNT O CASH -- O CHECK PAYMENT FRTO OMONEY ORDER BAL DUE REDIT CARD BY Si1�/. i rt _ 3-11 BUS LICENSE PERMITS 227W JEFFERSON BLVD 120 SOUTH BEND,IN 46601 10/01!2019 10.26:02 CREDIT CARD MC SALE Card # XXXXXXX70(XXX3908 SEQ #: i Batch #: 268 INVOICE 1 Approval Code; 753194 Gnlry Molhnri Mbni izi Catherine Hostetler - Landmark 60649 Hickory From: Catherine Hostetler To: HPC-Commissioners Date: 6/15/2012 9:59 AM Subject: Landmark 60649 Hickory CC: Elicia Feasel; sszaday@co.st-joseph.in.us Good News! The Gerry Battles Farm at 60649 Hickory has been purchased by Ben Modlin. He came in this morning to explain the scope of work that he is planning on performing to bring the house up to standards. All the exterior work will be routine maintenance and repair. He's a Purdue grad and is doing most of the work himself. This house has been vacant for many years and the subject of many inquiries to this Office. But Ben is now the owner as of April 25 and it looks like the place is in very good hands.

I am honored and would like to accept. Please see the attached resume for information on my professional and community work. I must remind you that although I am an art historian who works both on architecture and on urban design and landscape history specifically,my formal training is in the study of the ancient and medieval world. I hope this does not disqualify me because as you know,I am a preservationist at heart and a perpetual student. I have made my business and volunteer work in historic preservation in South Bend a vocation in which I am constantly educating myself. My art historical and architectural training has made me a quick study in the field of local I9'"and 20th century architecture. My inclinations and work as an archaeologist were entirely in the realm of preservation and research. I hope to be a contributing member of the commission and intend to continue my education in local history and architecture so as to provide accurate perspective when it is called for in discussion and decision-making. Sincerely, Joan Downs-Krostenko Commissioner Hertel made a motion to accept Ms.Downs-Krostenko's interest in the Architectural Historian position. Seconded by Commissioner Annis.

CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS 1. 60649 Hickory Road #2019-1007A #127-78 Local Landmark Representation: Ben Modlin, 60649 Hickory Road, South Bend,IN 46614 Carrie Modlin,60649 Hickory Road, South Bend,IN 46614 STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: November 12,2019 Application Number: 2019-1007A conitnued Property Location: 60649 Hickory Road Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder:Gabled-Ell/Stick/1869/"Gerry Battles Farm" Property Owner: Ben and Carrie Modlin Landmark or District Designation: Historic Landmark(Ordinance#127-78) Rating: Notable DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: 2-1/2 story Gabled-Ell/Stick style on a rough dressed stone foundation.Roof is cross plan with gable front and jerkin head side gable.Front porch has a single turned post,rear porch is slightly projecting with turned posts and a concrete stoop.The walls are original wood weatherboard shiplap siding with corner boards.Front windows have a wood,raised head with labels where other windows have plain labels.There is a two-story bay window with scrolled brackets.The side bay has a jerkin head roof with art nouveau scrolled decorations on the fascia.Front gable end has an ornate scrollwork decorative fascia,with pendants.There are two front doors with transoms,one with a full light. ALTERATIONS: The St.Joseph County ordinance in 1978 designating and establishing the Historic Landmark originally included 80 acres.The parcel has since been subdivided and was annexed to the City of South Bend in 1989.While the farm mostly retains the plan of its original buildings,changes to the property without COA are evidenced on aerial maps including the removal of a silo,removal of a small outbuilding to the southwest corner,and removal/modern replacement of the upper portion of the bank barn,retaining the foundation. COA 1988-0512 approved tear off roofing,redeck with plywood;apply new shingles with fiberglass Owens-Corning 3-in-1 type.COA 2011-0310 approved tear off and re-roof with 3&I shingle and new decking-felt paper ice shield. Windows are noted on the 1999 survey card as mostly 2/2 light but have since been replaced with 1/1 vinyl double hung(no COA on record)as evidenced in photos dating back to 2011. Current owners have removed the original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on the south and west sides,installing new artificial siding without COA. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Removal of decayed existing siding,animal feces, bat habitat exclusion, beehives,mold, waterlogged and damaged material,removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity. Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation,new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap, new flashings,new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications.Please see supporting documentation." See additional written description of project. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a retroactive Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 1. Remove original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on house, a. Completed on south and west sides 2. Install Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material a. Completed on south and west sides Prior to the current owners,the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy,including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as"rotting".In 2012,Commission staff met with new owner Ben Modlin to go over the scope of work,including"exterior routine maintenance and repair",although no Certificate of Appropriateness applications are on file.In May 2017,Commission staff mailed a Minimum Maintenance Standards letter to the Modlin's,commending their efforts to maintain and preserve the historic character of the property that included a reminder that any project that affects the exterior of the building,site,outbuildings, grounds,or landscaping will require review,and a completed COA application,with a reference to the Standards. The siding replacement without COA or Building Permit was discovered by Historic Preservation staff during St Joseph County Historic Landmark site visits on 8/27/19 and reported to the Building Department.The Building Department posted a cease and desist on 8/30/19,followed by a Violation letter 9/18/19. The original wood weatherboard shiplap siding,corner boards,and wood,raised head labels at windows are important in defining the overall historic character of the building.As evidenced by the owner's description and supporting photographs,the original siding demonstrates an advanced state of deterioration and has become permeable to water.Furthermore,the discoveries made inside the wall cavities provides reasonable cause for removing the original siding to remediate the materials in the wall cavities.While the original siding may have the ability to be repaired and made impermeable,it likely will not withstand removal to clean the wall cavities and reinstallation.Staff accepts that the original siding is deteriorated beyond repair. Group B Standards discourage the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.If the historic material cannot be repaired because of the extent of deterioration or damage,the preferred treatment is replacement in kind with the same material,wood shiplap in this case.Because this approach is not always feasible,provisions are made in Group B Standards to consider the use of a substitute material if it is of the same material as the original,in the same size and texture.The Standard does provide for an alternative material if it duplicates the original,however,the proposed PVC wood simulated siding is not of the same material as the original,is not in the same size(width of the clapboards is scaled up without a shiplap edge)or texture(embossed wood graining, intended to simulate the texture of wood,is not characteristic of real wood siding and is visually inappropriate). The proposed PVC product is not a familiar replacement product;this may in fact be the first application before this Commission.There is precedent for engineered wood products such as HardiePlank and LP SmartSide,as well as traditional vinyl siding,all having a shiplap style option. Applicants have submitted comparison quotes for Celect(application item),cedar siding,vinyl siding,and original siding repair.A summary(by staff)of the costs for the materials and for painting(where applicable)has been redacted from this report. Staff has requested more detail about the plan to repair/replace the trim around the windows and at the roof gable to "closely match the original"—specifically which architectural details and what the material will be. Results of the October 21 Historic Preservation Commission public hearing are: Commissioner Ponder made a motion to continue application#2019-1007A until the November 18th meeting.This continuance is to allow the applicant time to research and provide additional information about restoration of the existing wood siding,including:removing the bottom shiplap to allow for the removal of debris,ascertaining an estimate as to the amount of siding material that could be considered salvageable,estimates as to the cost of the restoration of that salvageable material.This information is requested by Tuesday,November 12th.Seconded by Commissioner Brazinsky. Four in favor,none opposed. Vote:4–0.Motion to continue COA#2019-1007A until the November 18th meeting is passed. Applicants have submitted two additional proposals,see:Clayton Hoover and Sons for salvaging remaining siding and mill new siding and Mignery&Son Contracting for vinyl siding. The National Park Service Preservation Brief#8 Aluminum and Vinyl Siding on Historic Buildings: The Appropriateness of Substitute Materials for Resurfacing Historic Wood Frame Buildings was consulted for this staff report. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: Group B The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans, specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1.Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary, the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F. Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping (These standards apply to both A and B) 1.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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, green houses,new walls,fountains,fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2.Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs,drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style,materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees, fencing,walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends allowing for the replacement of original siding.Staff does not recommend the proposed replacement siding because it does not conform to Group B Standards with additional consideration for the Notable rating of the property.Staff recommends a replacement siding that more closely resembles the original in style,size,and texture,preferably wood shiplap.Staff recommends that all trim around the windows,the roof gable,and the brackets replicate the original. Prepared by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator and Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist Commissioner Patrick Deegan joined the proceedings at 5:34 pm. PETITIONER COMMENTS: N/A COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Stalheim:Agree that the siding should be replaced,that,from the material that is apparent,that little could be saved. That the Commission should consider allowing the replacement,but consider approval and focus more on retaining the bigger details that you see from the street:the fascia boards,the window trim,and focus on keeping those as accurate as possible,and forgo the cove detail of the shiplap for replacement siding,even though it is retroactive,with the stipulation in the approval so it doesn't become a precedent.That they retain any salvageable material,and keep it in good order,and since we know that plastic materials fail prematurely compared to other options—when this has to be replaced there's a stipulation in the approval that they come forward and it becomes a • requirement for it to be more appropriate to the original house since we do have it documented in photographs. I do agree that the insulation and the innards of the wall need to be properly replaced. Commissioner Ponder:The estimates were worrisome: I)one estimate showed the contractor wasn't going to remove the material in the wall,2)there were differing opinions as to what was salvageable. Commissioner Gelfrnan asked the Commission as to the details of the work as it was proposed the previous month,and that there seemed to be some discrepancies with how the work could be completed. Commissioner Hertel expressed concern that,were the Commission to approve the vinyl,and mandate a better product when the vinyl fails,that there wouldn't be compliance in the future. Commissioner Stalheim clarified that he believes that the purpose is to save the structure as a whole,a discussion should be had on what components are most valuable. Commissioner Hertel agreed with Commissioner Stalheim and stated that the insulation and the animals—those should be addressed. Options were discussed for ways that that could be executed. Commissioner Stalheim stated that it again appears beyond repair. Commissioner Annis stated that two sides had already been completed. Commissioner Hertel expressed concern as to whether minimum maintenance was executed. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko expressed that these problems did not just come up immediately,that they were evident from when the structure was purchased in 2012;that"if you postpone making a plan,and suddenly it is an emergency,and it is too expensive to do the right thing"and not follow the Standards. Commissioner Annis expressed that she agreed with Commissioner Stalheim,that financial hardship is a consideration and the Commission should attempt to control what happens next. Commissioner Gelfman expressed that this was not a comparison of apples to apples,and that the estimates are hard to compare. Commissioner Deegan expressed that he agreed,that a lived-in building is better than a degrading building. Commissioner Deegan expressed that he supported this position based upon the distance from the street,the seemingly imperceptible difference in the siding is not perceptible at that distance,the maintenance of the property up until 2012 was spotty at best,and that worse things were installed,that the summation of all these things is not ideal,that wood siding would be preferred,but lived-in,with a family is preferable to the alternative. Commissioner Gelfman noted that the structure is rated as Notable,expressed that finding a solution that is like-in-kind is what the Standards and Guidelines require. Commissioner Gelfman expressed dissatisfaction with the estimates and had hoped that the cost would be broken down by the projects. Further,the salvageable estimate discrepancies complicate the discussion. Commissioner Stalheim noted that the Hoover proposal did not include sheathing,which either means it is included,or it is an additional cost. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko exclaimed that in her experience,removing wet insulation from the walls is manageable to do by property owner themselves. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko further stated that she felt that problem areas are usually easily identified,and that the proposals are somewhat of a`blank check'to fix those problems. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko referenced historic preservationist Bob Yapp's position that removing vinyl or aluminum siding typically results in less that 15%material that needs to be replaced. Commissioner Stalheim clarified that half the house has already been resided,and that only half the house still has the original siding. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the proposed material to be installed could be installed by the property owner,whereas wood siding may require more of a craftsman to install. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that she had never installed vinyl siding,so she was not aware of how hard it was to install by comparison. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: N/A Commissioner Gelfman asked the applicants to further explain their position: Mr.Modlin stated that they called the contractors on the list provided by HPC Staff and the quotes were received were the only two contractors who responded. They were not happy with the estimates that they received,as they did not quote as how Mr.Modlin had hoped to quote to satisfy the Commission's concerns. The quote in question ended up being for labor only. Commissioner Hertel asked for clarification regarding the quoted cost for"chimney demolition." Mr.Modlin stated that it was added in the quote. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that the Modlins are not changing their application to include chimney demolition. Administrator Feasel clarified that the contractors did not do what the Modlins had wanted them to do. Administrator Feasel further clarified that the contractor list supplied by the HPC Staff is not curated and was inherited. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko expressed concern as to the one contractor's estimate that included siding over the wet detritus and insulation. This would not be ideal. Mr.Modlin stated they requested to get quotes,these two contractors responded,that they provided them. Mr.Modlin stated that installing wood siding can be cantankerous at times,and that"90%of all wood siding warranty issues are derived from improper installation." This quote is from`Buffalo',the manufacturer of the wood siding. Commissioner Annis clarified that that when a warranty issue were to come up,it was not the product,but the way it was installed. Specialist Toering clarified that he believed that this was true for roofs or other construction products;improper installation results in more failures for any product—its typically not the product itself. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that it is not that hard to install wood siding. Commissioner Gelfman asked that,if wood siding were acquired,what the installation costs would be. Mr.Modlin stated that they were instructed to quotes for cost for installing the different materials,and that the supplied quotes are what was provided. Commissioner Deegan asked if other alternative materials were investigated,for example,Hardee Board. Mr.Modlin stated that in conversations with North Coast,the representative did not support installing cement board on the house,allegedly due to the loss of lawsuits. Regarding other wood quotes,he could not find many. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if they had considered doing the house one side at a time. Mr.Modlin expressed that he had considered it,but that it would be a five-year project of work in the summers. Ms.Modlin stated that this option would subject their children to years with whatever material is in the walls. Commissioner Hertel expressed that the Commission fully supports removing the material from the wall cavities in the pursuit of creating a healthy environment for their family. Mr.Modlin explained that removing the cellulose material from the inside,it would remove the lathe and plaster,and that the siding is already in a deteriorated condition,and that removing the siding would be easier. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko agreed that doing it from the outside is easier,and that you would not have to remove all the siding to do it. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the estimate would come to about$22,000(and that includes taking off the 7%tax)and would not include her labor. Mr.Modlin produced the proposed siding and demonstrated how it worked together. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko inquired about the size difference between the proposed siding and the original siding. Mr.Modlin indicated that of the$11,000 for the Celect PVC,half of that cost is already installed on the house. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko suggest that a motion regarding the preservation of the architectural details as a separate piece from the replacement of the siding. Commissioner Stalheim asked the applicant about the lifespan of the material in direct sunlight. Mr.Modlin stated that Royal makes a lot of products. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko indicated the average lifespan of vinyl siding is about 25 years. The average lifespan of original wood,if properly maintained,is about 160 years;it cost more upfront,but has a longer lifespan. The vinyl will go into the landfill sooner. Mr.Modlin stated they did not plan on going anywhere any time soon. Ms.Modlin stated they were invested in the property. Commissioner Stalheim asked about how the material is joined together. Mr.Modlin explained that it is connected by PVC glue. Commissioner Gelfman asked for a motion to break the project into two portions. Commissioner Stalheim made a motion to divide COA#2019-1007A-Continued into two components, 1)the treatment and the preservation of the architectural details,2) replacement of the siding. Commissioner Annis seconded the motion. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to separate COA#2019-1007A into two components passes. Commissioner Stalheim stated that the treatment of the architectural details should be maintained`in-kind.' Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked to clarify what architectural details would be covered in the motion:does it include corner boards,window sills,trim,fascia. Mr.Modlin stated that the inside corner boards and the outside corner boards would be of PVC. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if that would impact the fascia,soffit,and sills. Mr.Modlin stated that it would end at the frieze board. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the windows were already replaced. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked for staff's sentiment as to how this should be separated. Administrator Feasel stated that separating projects does occur,that the Commission has not typically wanted to see windows wrapped with aluminum or other materials,but the interplay of original wood with the plastic material is unknown. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that it could be determined at staff's discretion after investigation of the cases. That attaching the vinyl material to the wood could cause problems. Mr.Modlin stated that there is transitional board that would come up to the frieze board and stop. Commissioner Hertel stated that,when the Commission is discussing the maintenance of original`architectural details',that the original wood shiplap is an architectural detail. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that this is the classic Historic Preservation problem:that it is expensive to do it`right.' That this is why the Commission is here for. That if the argument becomes,'its too expensive to do it right,'then the Commission might as well go home,because that is one of the reasons why it exists. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if the original boards would be removed,or if the new material would be installed over the old boards, Mr.Modlin stated that they would remove the old material,and that new sheathing would be installed,and fire stop,and vapor barrier. Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that all the architectural details including the trim around the windows,the roof gable,the brackets,are replicated in the original style and material(this does not include the siding).Seconded by Commissioner Ponder. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,section one,regarding"the treatment and preservation of the Architectural details"is passed. Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that the siding to be replaced should be wood in nature,with final approval of the product details remanded to staff.Seconded by Commissioner Downs-Krostenko. Six in favor,one opposed. Vote: 6—1. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A,section two with wood siding,with final product details remanded to staff,is approved. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that the approved motion is a denial of the original application, and that Commissioners should state their reasons for denial. Roll was called. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko(AYE): I vote to deny because,the holy grail of our business is the exterior preservation of these buildings,and changing the material and the dimensions of the material does radically change the appearance of the house,it also involves demolishing the existing wood siding,and once you do something like that to the house,you can pretty much guarantee that it probably will never come back If the wood stays underneath there, someone may come along and say, 'oh,I'm going to make arrangements to take off the nasty vinyl siding and repair the woodwork and the carpentry and make it beautiful again. Once you remove it,you pretty much put a stake through the heart of the building in terms of its integrity and value in the exterior. Commissioner Annis(AYE): I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the recommendation of the standards. Our job is to uphold the Standards. Commissioner Deegan(NAY): Commissioner Hertel(AYE): I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the standards and guidelines of what would be appropriate for the house of that historic time. Commissioner Gelfman(AYE): I vote to deny,due to the fact that, 1)this farmstead is notable, which is critical in St.Joseph County and the City as well. 2)If we are to keep the integrity of historical preservation that exists for hundreds and hundreds of years,we have to look at the standards and the guidelines that have been set,and we need to follow them as best we can. I understand that this is a difficult situation because of the cost of it,unfortunately one of the things that comes along with a historical home, which I think all of us own,is that—the cost of the renovations of it. One of the things that Dr. [Krostenko-] Downs did recommend that might be helpful to you is to just do it a section at a time,over so many years. I understand that is difficult as well, but if you are doing this yourself,then that lessens the amount,not just for the wood itself,but for the labor and everything else that is involved with it. Commissioner Ponder(AYE): I vote to deny for the reasons already stated based in the guidelines,as well as for the precedence that it sets. If we allow you to do it—and yes,I understand the financial hardship—if someone else comes with a smaller project,then they will use this as leverage to say, 'hey,you let them do it,why can't you let us do it?' Again,we must follow the guidelines that have been laid out. Commissioner Stalheim(AYE):I vote to deny based upon all of the reasons previously stated. Application to install vinyl siding is denied. 2. 619 Cushing #2019-1023A #8142-90 Local Landmark Representation: Ricardo Nevarez,21913 Mishawaka Avenue, South Bend,IN 46615 STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: November 13,2019 Application Number: 2019-1023A Property Location: 617-619 North Cushing Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Gabled-ell/Stick/1892 Property Owner: Dito's Investments,LLC Landmark or District Designation: Local Landmark,Ordinance#8142-90 Rating: Outstanding DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: Main structure is a two-story irregular plan Gabled-ell house in the stick style on a brick foundation(that was previously covered in stucco). Wood clapboard siding with decorative square panels and jigsaw shingles. Asphalt shingle roof with centrally mounted brick chimney. Gabled dormers with decorated rakeboards,molded wood eaves and rake,and a plain frieze. The front entry porch adds distinctive styling,the side entrance has a unique canopy with fan-decorated semicircular brackets. Windows were originally 1-over-1 double hung with plain wood jambs and sills and decorated wood entablatures;many windows are now vinyl replacements. 617 Cushing stands to the rear of the main house closer to the alley and was possibly originally an outbuilding. It is a one and a half story structure with a brick foundation and a centrally mounted chimney. Originally sided in wood,it is now covered in vinyl. Windows are a mix of original wood one-over-one double hung,casements,and replacement vinyl windows. ALTERATIONS: Both properties have been extensively modified over the course over the last century. Windows have been replaced in both structures(without COA);617 Cushing had vinyl siding installed over the original siding. AA 2019-0517 approved a number of projects on the exterior of both structures which have not been completed(removal and reconstruction of chimneys,foundation work,tree removal,landscaping improvements,and the removal of the exterior stair well). AA 2019- 1023 allowed for the removal and re-roofing of the asphalt shingle roof,as well as the installation of new gutters and downspouts. APPLICATION ITEMS: " • • . • • - . • • .. ..cancel two entry doors and fix wood siding,paint all exterior siding and trim-casting." DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 3. Removal of exterior doors,filling in of the former door cavities,and siding over with LP Smart Side PPG Prefinished TM 3/8 x 6 x 16'Knight's Armor Textured Strand Lap Siding. a. The front facade of the structure currently has three entrances: i. An ancillary entrance facing east,TO BE REMOVED ii. A primary entrance on the front porch facing east, iii. A secondary entrance onto the front porch,facing south,TO BE REMOVED Staff believes the LP Smartside is intended to be used just to fill in the removed doors. Staff has not interpreted this application as seeking to re-side the entirety of the structure. Late 19th century structures often had multiple front entrances(leading to some being labeled as`coffin doors'or`funeral doors' as they were supposedly installed to allow coffins to be brought into and removed from a house without navigating tight turns or corners). Historic record indicates this structure has long existed as a multi-family house with multiple units,necessitating multiple entrances. This is reflected in the property history and 1932 Assessor Cards. Staff is not immediately against the removal of additional non-essential doors but would prefer they are replaced with new windows. Recent projects reviewed and approved by the Commission include the following examples where doors were removed and replaced with new windows include: 1. COA 2018-0403 for 908 Leland in the Chapin Park Local Historic District, a. An ancillary door opening onto the front porch was removed and replaced with a specially constructed window, 2. COA 2018-1107 for 916 Riverside Drive in the Riverside Drive Local Historic District, a. A secondary porch entrance was shifted from one wall to another,the former door space was replaced with a new window. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:Local Landmark"Group B" The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans,specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1.Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished_ When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary,the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F.Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping(These standards apply to both A and B) 1.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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,green houses,new walls,fountains, fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2.Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs, drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that arc causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style, materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees,fencing, walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff supports the removal of the secondary doors. However,staff would prefer: 1. the doors were replaced with appropriately sized windows with matching trim, 2. wood siding(matching the existing)is installed in lieu of LP Smartside. Prepared and recommended by Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist Approved by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator PETITIONER COMMENTS: Mr.Nevarez stated that there was a mistake regarding the proposed siding,and that the proposed siding to be replaced would be wood matching the existing wood in both shape and reveal. Replicating the existing siding would be no problem.The house has five entrance doors—it was a multi-unit house,with two doors in the front,one on the side,one on the back, and one on the back side. COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that she understood removing the northern extra door but removing the side door where the decorative porch is causes some concern. The bracketed,decorated porch would look strange were you to remove the entrance there,especially if it were a blank wall,but also would look weird if you put in a window. Commissioner Gelfman asked whether the present door was original to the house. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that she didn't think the door was original,but that this was the location of a door to the house originally. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko reiterated that she had concerns about removing the door entirely, or replacing it with a window,as it would look strange. Commissioner Hertel asked for clarification on which doors would be removed. Commissioner Ponder expressed concerns regarding the other administrative approvals that had been approved for the property, specifically that the new property owners have initiated any of those projects yet and looked forward to asking the property owner about that information. Commissioner Annis stated she would ask about clarification as to how the siding would be installed with the trim but stated she would ask the property owner in open discussion. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko clarified that you would remove the frame,and then`feather'the boards in so that they are different length. Commissioner Stalheim stated that he would only want windows to be installed if there was evidence that a window existed in that space before. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that it depends on the building,and that in examples that she knows of,the blank wall would have looked out of place had a window not been installed. Commissioner Hertel asked staff if there was any evidence of window existing in any of these openings before. Specialist Toering clarified that the 1932 Assessor Card referenced that the property was already subdivided at that time. The Historic Sites and Survey Card indicates in the`history'section that the family that constructed the house had long used it as a multi-family dwelling. The earliest example of the Sanborn fire insurance maps indicate that it is a multiple unit house. Staff believes that the house was originally constructed to be a multi-unit house. • Commissioner Gelfman indicated that she would guess that the windows existed on the left side of the porch,but that the right side of the porch was probably not a window. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko indicated that there did not appear to be much objection on the part of the Commission members regarding the removal of the door that is facing to the south on the front porch. Specialist Toering stated that"as early as 1906,Nathaniel O.Troyer,clerk at Studebaker,and his wife are listed living at the address with the Zollers[who built the house]." The history goes on to indicate that Mr.Zoller had served in the Civil War and had been a sailor on a sailing ship. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko clarified that removing the door,the siding should be feathered in,and the side porch poses different questions. Mr.Nevarez stated that the house had multiple units,and the side door was an entrance to provide access via a stairwell to the upstairs unit. He further stated that the area where that stairwell was previously(the interior has been gutted, including removing the stairwell)will be where the kitchen of the house will be constructed,and that having openings on the kitchen walls poses layout problems. Mr.Nevarez stated that he is converting the house into a single-family home. The three different units are being eliminated and the floor plan is being extensively altered. Commissioner Annis stated that you could`fur'the wall on the inside to create a solid surface but keep the exterior door for cosmetic reasons on the outside. Commissioner Gelfman asked Commissioner Annis to clarify why the door should be left. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that the exterior door(and attached porch)are important to the aesthetics of the house. Commissioner Annis stated that it is important to the form of the house and if you take the door out and leave the wall,it would look strange. Mr.Nevarez stated that the porch area was an addition,and he would like to remove it and improve the look of that side of the house. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that she did not feel comfortable making a judgement on the side porch door,as she was lacking information about the back of the house,how many phases or what additions were there,and she could not assess what this porch was doing,if it is original,or what it is doing,unless she visited the property. Mr.Nevarez stated the he believed the door was made to provide an entrance to the upstairs unit. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if the house was built as a single-family home. Specialist Toering stated that the house was at least a duplex when first constructed. Mr.Nevarez reiterated that the house was possibly a triplex,and even a quadplex at some point in time. Commissioner Hertel discussed the rear addition and how it was attached to the structure,and how the construction of that addition may have led to the construction of the other door. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that perhaps there was already an addition,and it was expanded into the present larger addition;evidence of this can be found in that the trim on those additions matches the trim elsewhere on the house. There's a lot going on with the house and she would feel more comfortable deciding having more information. Commissioner Gelfman suggested that the Commission table the door until the next meeting so that Commissioners could come to the property and see,to allow the Commission to make an educated decision. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the Commission could,at this time,review the front entrance door removal projects. Mr.Nevarez mentioned he would also like to remove one of the rear doors. Commissioner Stalheim indicated that the application specifically mentioned removing the front two doors but does not mention the rear doors. Specialist Toering stated he understood that the application was for the removal of two of the front doors on the street facing facade. Mr.Nevarez apologized. Commissioner Gelfman commented on one of the pictures of the structure included in the packet that showed the property a few years ago. Commissioner Hertel asked Mr.Nevarez if they planned to make the house look like it used to look. Mr.Nevarez indicated that the color palette would change,that the primary colors of the house would be green,light blue,and dark blue. Specialist Toering showcased the Sanborn Fire insurance map from 1899 that show the house in its current overall configuration. That if the Sanborn map is to be trusted,then the additions happened within the first four years of the structure's construction. Specialist Toering indicated that he believed that the structure was built as a multi-unit house in the overall configuration you see today. The history of the property indicates that the rear structure—sometimes referenced as an outbuilding—that building's footprint changes a lot. There are two houses on this lot. Mr.Nevarez asked if the rear structure was`historic.' Specialist Toering indicated that,from a legal perspective,both structures on the parcel are protected historic structures. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko indicated that Mr.Nevarez should return with another application to remove the door at the rear of the structure,and that the Commission would probably favorably approve that when it was received for review. Commissioner Hertel recommended that when Mr.Nevarez comes back with his next Certificate of Appropriateness application,that the fee is waived. Commissioner Gelfman agreed. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: • Commissioner Hertel clarified that the applicant has changed materials—instead of using the LP Smartside,the applicant is going to use wood siding. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko made a motion on COA#2019-1023A be accepted with the following conditions: 1)that the south facing front facade door be allowed to be removed and filled with wood siding of the same size and reveal as the original siding, and that the wood be feathered in;2)and that the second door of the application be tabled until the next meeting;3)that the application will be waived for the continuation;4)that Commission members shall visit the site,to determine the rear additions. Seconded by Commissioner Ponder. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to continue COA#2019-1023A with conditions is passed,including continued. Commissioner Hertel informed the applicant that should contact Historic Preservation Staff if they had any questions,as the Staff is very helpful and here to help. Mr.Nevarez stated that he recently bought the property,he came to staff immediately,and that he intends to convert it back to a single-family occupancy,and then put it back on the market. Commissioner Downs-Krotstenko stated that it wasn't that long ago that the house was beautiful,and that the work should be manageable to get it back to that condition. Commissioner Gelfman asked about the status of the previously approved Certificates of Appropriateness associated with this address. Specialist Toering indicated that they were issued for the previous property owner. Commissioner Hertel asked if Mr.Nevarez needed to get a new approval as the new property owner. Legal Counsel Kennedy stated that the approved Certificates of Appropriateness'stay with the property.' Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that approvals are only good for a year. Specialist Toering stated that the approvals were issued this summer. Mr.Nevarez stated that he would honor those previous applications and approvals. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the reason for the concern was that Commissioner Ponder was wondering about the priorities for the project. Mr.Nevarez stated that the priority was the roof and was concerned about what was previous approved for that aspect of the structure. Specialist Toering stated that the chimney had major structural issues,that former Inspector Szaday had completed a site visit, that the previous property owner had proposed taking the chimney down and rebuilding it,that the reconstructed chimney would not be a structural chimney,it would not be functional. Mr.Nevarez indicated that he would like to take the chimney down but not rebuild it. Specialist Toering stated that the chimney reconstruction was only approved because of the stated reconstruction. Mr.Nevarez stated that he understood. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that he could apply to demolish the chimney in a separate document. Mr.Nevarez stated that he planned to start with the roof. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the chimney has existed and that it should remain,even if it just for looks. Commissioner Gelfman asked when the foundation will be addressed. Mr.Nevarez stated that the plan was to do the roof,siding,and then the foundation. Commissioner Gelfman asked about the main issues of the foundation. Mr.Nevarez stated that the foundation currently has an exterior access,and that the previous owners had requested permission to remove that entrance,and that was administratively approved. The foundation itself is sound. IV. PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR V. REGULAR BUSINESS A. APPROVAL OF MINUTES i. N/A B. STAFF REPORTS i. Administrative Approvals 1. 730 Park Avenue—Hershberger Masonry applied for and received an Administrative Approval for the reconstruction of the masonry foundation of the veranda. Commissioner Hertel left the proceedings at 6:57pm. Commissioner Hertel rejoined the proceedings at 7:00pm C. COMMITTEE REPORTS i. Disposition of Historic Preservation Assets 1. N/A ii. Standards Update 1. Indiana Landmarks is funding of a development of a `model guideline', and HPC is a partner. a. Commissioner Eric Stalheim has been hired to be a consultant on that `model guideline.' This alters the timeline somewhat. b. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko inquired about a committee that would be working on this project. c. Administrator Feasel stated that she would like to have Todd Zeiger to come in and speak to the Commission regarding what the model guideline would be. 2. Two additional grants will be used to present this process to the public a. National Trust for Historic Preservation Grant b. Indiana Humanities—Historic Preservation Education Grant 3. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stressed that Staff are intimately aware of where the issues are within the Standards and Guidelines. She asked for clarification as to what specific categories cause problems that could be updated a. Administrator Feasel stressed that there are nine different Standards;they are similar but have nuances in language. The goal is to consolidate those standards into one Standard,with addenda as necessary(to keep that unique character for specific neighborhoods). b. Lead paint is not covered as extensively in the guidelines. 4. Commissioner Hertel stressed that we could make the guidelines more stringent,and that a guideline change could result in a legal precedence. a. Legal Counsel Kennedy stated that—if there is homeowner input,and the neighborhood charettes—that you are starting with a clean slate. b. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stressed that previous staff left the guidelines purposefully ambiguous so that projects could be reviewed by staff in Chapin Park,and that has left the door open for bad decision making. It is important to review these changes and the guidelines and ensure that they cannot be used against the tenets of historic preservation. c. Specialist Toering stressed that the nine historic districts have robust standards in comparison to the Group B Standards, which allow for a considerable amount of ambiguity. In some ways this allows for room for the Commission to negotiate and maneuver,and in other ways it allows for the applicant to do things that are very strange. Group B has the widest range and extremes of style that are covered in the least amount of text. If you are going to make the district guidelines tighter,you must have the buy-in from the people from the neighborhoods. 5. Commissioner Hertel asked about the idea that Indiana Landmarks had previously discussed a rating system,and that we do our community a disservice if we only meet the minimum requirement. a. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko discussed the adoption of the Chapin Park district,that the consensus was that you didn't have to change anything as it currently exists,but as soon as you do want to change something,it needs to change for the better. This has led to some people arguing that they want to keep things they way they are. VI. OLD BUSINESS VII. NEW BUSINESS A. ARCHITECTURAL HISTORIAN B. PROGRAMMATIC AGREEMENT Legal Counsel Kennedy explained the circumstances of the Programmatic Agreement between the Historic Preservation Commission and the Department of Community Investment allowing for the execution of certain duties by Historic Preservation Commission staff, specifically Section 106 Review. Staff conducts Section 106 review for projects including HUD grant disbursement; for example,Lead remediation grant projects and Community Development Block Grants(CDBG). The agreement is currently in draft form because there are three Native American Tribes that want to party to it,and they have asked for more time to review the document. The document is still being reviewed by the other parties,and any comments would need to be received on the current draft. The Historic Preservation Commission will empower President Gelfman to sign on behalf of the Commission. Administrator Feasel stated that continuing education regarding Section 106 Review opportunities are available at the 2020 Historic Preservation Conference that will be hosted in South Bend. Commissioner Annis made a motion to authorize Commission President Michele Gelfman to serve as signatory to the Programmatic Agreement. Seconded by Commissioner Hertel. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to authorize Commission President Michele Gelfman as signatory to the Programmatic Agreement passes. VIII.

Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications. Please see supporting documentation." In making its determination,the Historic Preservation Commission considered the appropriateness of the proposed construction,reconstruction,or alteration to the preservation of the historic landmark, specifically, and/or the Historic Preservation District, generally;the detriment to the public welfare if the proposed construction,reconstruction,or alteration were permitted even though it is not deemed appropriate; and the potential hardship that the denial of a certificate of appropriateness would cause the applicant. Following is the record from the meeting concerning your project stating why your application was denied: Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that all the architectural details including the trim around the windows,the roof gable,the brackets, are replicated in the original style and material(this does not include the siding). Seconded by Commissioner Ponder. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,section one,regarding"the treatment and preservation of the Architectural details"is passed. Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that the siding to be replaced should be wood in nature,with final approval of the product details remanded to staff.

Vote: 6—1. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,section two with wood siding,with final product details remanded to staff,is approved. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the vinyl siding has been denied. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that the approved motion is a denial of the original application,and that Commissioners should state their reasons for denial. Roll was called. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko(AYE): I vote to deny because,the holy grail of our business is the exterior preservation of these buildings,and changing the material and the dimensions of the material does radically change the appearance of the house,it also involves demolishing the existing wood siding,and once you do something like that to the house,you can pretty much guarantee that it probably will never come back. If the wood stays underneath there,someone may come along and say, 'oh, I'm going to make arrangements to take off the nasty vinyl siding and repair the woodwork and the carpentry and make it beautiful again.' Once you remove it,you pretty much put a stake through the heart of the building in terms of its integrity and value in the exterior. Commissioner Annis(AYE): I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the recommendation of the standards. Our job is to uphold the Standards. Commissioner Deegan(NAY): Commissioner Hertel(AYE): I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the standards and guidelines of what would be appropriate for the house of that historic time. Commissioner Gelfman(AYE): I vote to deny,due to the fact that, 1)this farmstead is notable,which is critical in St. Joseph County and the City as well. 2)If we are to keep the integrity of historical preservation that exists for hundreds and hundreds of years,we have to look at the standards and the guidelines that have been set,and we need to follow them as best we can. I understand that this is a difficult situation because of the cost of it,unfortunately one of the things that comes along with a historical home,which I think all of us own,is that—the cost of the renovations of it. One of the things that Dr. [Krostenko-] Downs did recommend that might be helpful to you is to just do it a section at a time,over so many years. I understand that is difficult as well,but if you are doing this yourself,then that lessens the amount,not just for the wood itself,but for the labor and everything else that is involved with it. Commissioner Ponder(AYE): I vote to deny for the reasons already stated based in the guidelines,as well as for the precedence that it sets. If we allow you to do it—and yes,I understand the financial hardship—if someone else comes with a smaller project,then they will use this as leverage to say, 'hey,you let them do it,why can't you let us do it?' Again,we must follow the guidelines that have been laid out. Commissioner Stalheim(AYE): I vote to deny based upon all of the reasons previously stated. Application to install vinyl siding is denied. Page 12 CITY OF SOUTH BEND HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION The Commission acknowledged the deteriorated condition of the existing siding and wall cavities by giving approval for new wood siding to be installed.

Introduction A. The HPC's denial of COA#2019-1007A did not adequately consider the financial hardship on our family or the health and safety concerns for our family. Both of these concerns were recognized by the commissioners during the two meetings, but disregarded in the HPC's decision. Ben and Carrie Modlin request that the South Bend Common Council consider the financial burdens on our family and health and safety concerns to our family. Ben and Carrie Modlin request that based on these factors the South Bend Common Council over turn the HPC's denial and approve Ben and Carrie Modlin's COA#2019-1007A. B. Carrie and Ben Modlin are bringing this concern to the South Bend Common Council in hopes of concluding this matter without further legal costs. Ben and Carrie Modlin are both school teachers in the community and simply do not have the financial resources that the HPC has at their command. We wish to thank the South Bend Common Council for their consideration and support and we hope that common sense will prevail. Ultimately, we wish for the South Bend Common Council to repeal the Landmark Status of the Property and/or approve the proposed work to be done. II. Background The house at 60649 Hickory Rd. South Bend IN 46614 has existed as an individual residence since 1869. During the first close to 100 years it was maintained by the same family. During the 1980's through the early 2000's, in which the property was owned by different families, the house gradually fell into disrepair. During this time period the property was a Local Landmark. It eventually came to sit vacant for many years as a foreclosure and the state of the home grew quite dire. Vandals had done damage to the home. Years of vacancy and deferred maintenance had taken a toll on the exterior. See following quote from HPC for details: "Prior to current owners, the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy, including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as `rotting'." (COA#2019-1007A, 10/8/19) This was stated by HPC staff in a memo years before Ben and Carrie Modlin bought the property. It should be noted that the HPC acknowledge that there were serious concerns about the siding and the overall state of the house, yet nothing was done by the HPC to attempt to care for the house's siding. The house had by this point in 2009 been vacant for several years. At no point in time is there any documentation suggesting the HPC made steps to save the house's siding. In 2012 Ben Modlin bought the property and began working to try and resuscitate the property including routine maintenance and painting of the entire house's siding. In the following email, the HPC demonstrates their knowledge of the properties severe neglect and the positive outcomes of the property being bought by Ben Modlin: Catherine Hostetler-Landmark 60649 Hickory From: Catherine Hostetler To: HPC-Commissioners Date: 6/15/2012 9:59 AM Subject: Landmark 60649 Hickory CC: Elicia Feasel; sszaday@co.stjoseph.in.us Good News! The Gerry Battles Farm at 60649 Hickory has been purchased by Ben Modlin. He came in this morning to explain the scope of work that he is planning on performing to bring the house up to standards. All the exterior work will be routine maintenance and repair.He's a Purdue grad and is doing most of the work himself. This house has been vacant for many years and the subject of many inquiries to this Office. But Ben is now the owner as of April 25 and it looks like the place is in very good hands. Catherine Director, Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St.Joseph County,Indiana 574 235 9798 It should be noted that although Ben Modlin came in to explain what he wanted to do to the house, nothing was said at the time to explain to him the process of submitting a COA or that COAs were required for all work on the external portions of the house. Over the next several years the HPC made no contact and no attempt to assist or advise Ben and Carrie as work continued on the house. The next attempted point of contact was not until 2017, at which point the HPC mailed a letter attempting to inform the applicant of COA necessity and process. Although Ben and Carrie never received the letter, it should be noted that again here the HPC acknowledge the improvements to the property and the high level of care and maintenance the Modlin's were putting in. Benjamin and Carrie Modlin 60649 Hickory Rd. South Bend,IN 46614 Re: Local Landmark at 60649 Hickory Rd. Dear Mr.and Mrs.Modlin, Periodically our staff tours all historic districts and local landmark locations,noting the improvement or deterioration of each structure. We are looking for compliance with the minimum maintenance standards that have been approved by each district and for each local landmark.These standards must also meet those set by the city of South Bend Code En- forcement and the building and standard codes of St.Joseph County. On our recent tour,we were thrilled to see the condition of your beautiful home,and commend your efforts to maintain and preserve the historic character of your property. If exterior work is needed in the future,you may refer to the Preser- vation Standards for Historic Landmarks.Please remember that any project that affects the exterior of the building,site, outbuildings,grounds,or landscaping will require review,and a completed Certificate of Appropriateness(COA)appli- cation. Historic Landmarks Standards and Guidelines information,COA applications,and other relevant information can be found at the Historic Preservation Commission website listed above. Please do not hesitate to call us with questions and concerns. We have sources through our office that can advise you on techniques to help with historic property repair and maintenance. We look forward to hearing from you and working with you in the future. Sincerely, As Ben and Carrie never received the letter, they remained unaware of the necessity for a COA when doing external work to the house. It was not until the Modlins were red tagged (cease and desist order) for the exterior work to replace the siding in August 2019 that the Modlins were even made aware of COA requirements. At this time the HPC still did not contact Ben and Carrie, but instead filed a complaint with the building department. The building department then issued a red tag, informing Ben and Carrie that a permit must be on file within 48 hours. The Modlins were confused by this as they had been working under the "Indiana log cabin rule" "The Log Cabin Rule Indiana Code 36-7-8-3, which applies to all private homes. Being a home built by individuals and used for their own occupancy the establishment of building, heating, ventilating, electrical, plumbing, and sanitation standards; ordinances/permits do not apply." Ben Modlin attempted to contact the building department and was informed that the complaint was with the HPC. Ben immediately contacted the HPC in attempt to remedy the complaint, but did not receive any response until the third time he contacted them three days later. At this point a discussion finally led to Ben and Carrie being informed of the COA requirements and process. Once an understanding of the COA was established, the Modlins began work to complete and submit a COA, which was submitted on October 7th, 2019. It was this COA that was eventually denied at the HPC meeting on November 18th, 2019. It is this COA that the Modlins are requesting the South Bend Common Council approve by overturning the HPC's denial. III. Standard of review A. "The Historic Preservation Commission shall consider the application within forty five (45) days following its receipt of the application for a certificate of appropriateness, and shall either: A) Issue a certificate of appropriateness stating that the proposed construction, reconstruction, alteration, demolition, or moving is in conformance with the provisions of this article and authorize the Building Commissioner to issue a building permit, demolition permit, sign permit or moving permit if required; or B) Deny the application, stating in writing the reason(s) for such denial. Upon such denial, the applicant may appeal said denial to the Common Council which shall make a final determination of the application. Failure of the Historic Preservation Commission to take such action within sixty (60) days after receipt of the application by the Commission shall constitute approval of the application. In making such determination, the Historic Preservation Commission shall consider the following: i. Appropriateness of the proposed construction, reconstruction, alteration, demolition or moving to the preservation of the historic landmark, specifically, and/ or the Historic Preservation District, generally; ii. The detriment to the public welfare if the proposed construction, reconstruction, alteration, demolition or moving is permitted even though it is not deemed appropriate; and iii. The potential hardship that the denial of a certificate of appropriateness would cause the applicant. B. When the Common Council is called upon to review an appeal of an HPC decision, the Common Council is required to determine whether the action taken by HPC was: 1) Arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with applicable law; 2) Contrary to constitutional right, power, privilege, or immunity; 3) In excess of statutory jurisdiction, authority, limitations, or statutory rights; 4) Without observance of procedures required by applicable law or ordinance; 5) Unsupported by substantial evidence. III. Argument and contentions A. HPC did not adequately consider the health and safety concerns when voting on the COA application of Ben and Carrie Modlin. Their denial furthered the subjection of Ben and Carrie and their young children to the unsafe and unhealthy materials in the walls of the house, all of which was presented to the HPC prior to their decision. As stated above, The Historic Preservation Commission shall consider"The detriment to the public welfare if the proposed construction, reconstruction, alteration, demolition or moving is permitted even though it is not deemed appropriate." Health and safety of the family living in the home was acknowledged, but ultimately disregarded in the HPC's final decision to deny the COA. The below discussion demonstrates that it was acknowledged as an important factor. "Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if they had considered doing the house one side at a time. Mr. Modlin expressed that he had considered it, but that it would be a five-year project of work in the summers. Mrs. Modlin stated that this option would subject their children to years with whatever material is in the walls. Commissioner Hertel expressed that the Commision fully supports removing the material from the wall cavities in the pursuit of creating a healthy environment for their family." (HPC minutes, 11/13/19) HPC demonstrated their acknowledgement of unhealthy and unsafe materials in the walls. They also demonstrated support for the removal of these unsafe materials. However, by denying the COA to remove the siding, bat feces, cellulose, and other possibly harmful materials that were demonstrated to be under the siding, HPC contradicted this support. HPC did not provide any realistic or feasible suggestions for other methods of removing the unsafe wall materials. Ben Modlin did ask for clarification to see if they were supporting an alternative method for removing unsafe wall materials. "Mr. Modlin explained that removing the cellulose materials from the inside, it would (be required to) remove the lathe and plaster, and that the siding is already in a deteriorated condition, and that removing the siding would be easier. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko agreed that doing it from the outside is easier, and that you would not have to remove all the siding to do it." (HPC minutes, 11/13/19, emphasis added) Here the HPC Staff supported the idea that the best method for removing the unsafe wall materials would be from the outside by at least in part removing the siding, which the HPC had also acknowledge would not survive the removal process "While the original siding may have the ability to be repaired and made impermeable, it likely will not withstand removal to clean the wall cavities and reinstallation. Staff accepts that the original siding is deteriorated beyond repair." (HPC Staff Report COA 2019-1007A, 10-08-2019) In summary, it seems the HPC's statements are contradictory. First supporting that the materials in the wall are unsafe and unhealthy and need to be removed. Then supporting that the best method for removing these materials would be from the outside, by removing at least some of the siding. Yet in denying the COA, the HPC effectively blocked Ben and Carrie from being able to perform the very task that the HPC had supported as being necessary for the health and safety of the family. The action of denying the COA after having acknowledged that the wall materials are indeed unsafe and unhealthy demonstrates that the HPC did NOT consider the health and safety of the family adequately in their decision. B. The HPC did not adequately take into account the financial hardships placed on the family when considering the COA application of Ben and Carrie Modlin. After multiple quotes from contractors demonstrating the high costs of the owners installing wood siding (ranging from $40,470-$117,000 for the materials and installation), the HPC still chose to deny the COA application for PVC composite wood simulated siding. As stated above, the Historic Preservation Commission shall consider "The potential hardship that the denial of a certificate of appropriateness would cause the applicant." The HPC staff advised Ben and Carrie that the best way to support their request for the approval of the COA for PVC composite wood simulated siding would be to obtain quotes demonstrating price differences of materials. The Modlins struggled to find contractors who were willing or experienced in dealing with work on historic properties and the HPC. Some quotes we finally obtained are present in the COA (see exhibit E). During the meeting on October 21st, 2019 the HPC staff at first miss represented the quotes, in a way that did make it appear that it was a more manageable amount (although still a burdensome amount much higher than the cost of the materials that Ben and Carrie were proposing). Ben Modlin attempted to set the record straight in the following discussion: "Mr. Modlin stated that the costs as summarized in the staff report were incorrect... The cedar siding was $40,000 for$70,000 plus, and that more detailed information was requested... Mr. Modlin had Denny Kimmel estimate that it would cost $23,000 to paint the cedar siding. From the tongue-and-groove estimate was for labor and installation, and that was a $43,000 estimation from Mastercraft construction. (In) Total for wood siding would be $117,000 or so. Commissioner Hertel asked for clarification, as she believed that Mr. Modlin had been doing the installation. Mr. Modlin confirmed, yes, (but) that they were asked to give more of an estimate if they were to hire the project out. Mr. Modlin estimated that it would take 350 man hours to paint, at a value of approximately $17,500; Denny Kimmel estimated it would cost $23,000 to paint. To install the siding Mr. Modlin estimated $40,000, Mastercraft estimated $43,000. The painting estimate did not include tax. Commissioner Stalheim asked if the vapor barrier was included in the cost. Mr. Modlin confirmed that vapor barrier was included, but it does not include the mesh underlayment layer. The reason wood was included was to show the massive cost difference. Just the wood alone is a financial hardship. They cannot afford the wood, they cannot afford to have it installed, they cannot afford to have it painted." (HPC minutes, 10/21/19) After this discussion it was eventually decided that the above quote was not acceptable to the HPC and they made the motion for a continuation of the application in order to have the applicants obtain more quotes. Before this motion was made, Ben and Carrie requested a five minute recess so they could discuss their options in private in the hallway. This request was immediately denied: "Commissioner Hertel stated that the meeting could not be postponed." (HPC minutes, 10/21/19) Since Ben and Carrie were not able to discuss their options in private, they deferred to the HPC, who made the motion for continuation.

The following proposal by one of the commissioners was considered. "Commissioner Stalheim: Agree that the siding should be replaced, that, from the material that is apparent, that little could be saved. That the Commission should consider allowing the replacement, but consider approval and focus more on retaining the bigger details that you see from the street: the fascia boards, the window trim, and focus on keeping those as accurate as possible, and forgo the cove details of the shiplap for replacement siding, even though it is retroactive, with the stipulation in the approval so it doesn't become the precedent...I do agree that the insulation and the innards of the wall need to be properly replaced." (HPC minutes, 11/18/19) This proposal was debated back and forth by several commissioners. At one point another commissioner stated the following: "Commissioner Annis expressed that she agreed with commissioner Stalheim, that financial hardship is a consideration..." (HPC minutes, 11/18/19) Thus the HPC members demonstrated that it was clear financial hardship was known and shall be considered. After further discussion and examination of materials and quotes, the commision attempted to "approve" the COA application, but with wood siding, which was NOT what the application was for and was exactly what had been demonstrated in the quotes as being financially burdensome to the family. "Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A, section two with wood siding, with final product details remanded to staff. Seconded by Commissioner Downs-Krostenko." (HPC minutes, 11/18/19) This motion was approved 6-1. In effect the HPC attempted here to approve a proposal that had not in fact been made. The Modlin's COA having been for the approval of PVC composite wood simulated siding, the HPC was not approving that proposal, but rather approving their own suggested proposal. This was pointed out by the Legal Counsel. "Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that the approved motion is a denial of the original application, and that Commissioners should state their reasons for denial." (HPC minutes, 11/18/19) Each commissioner went on to state their reasons for denying the COA. In several of the commissioners statements the financial burden of wood siding was clearly acknowledged, and yet ignored in their decision. "Commissioner Gelfman (AYE)... I understand that this is a difficult situation because of the cost of it, unfortunately one of the things that comes along with a historical home...is that-the cost of the renovations of it. One of the things that Dr. Downs did recommend that might be helpful to you is to just do it a section at a time, over so many years. I understand that it is difficult as well..." (HPC minutes, 11/18/19) Commissioner Gelfman's suggestion that the Modlins do the project in stages over a number of years directly contradicted the aforementioned discussion that the animal feces, mold and rot documented demonstrated that the wall cavities needed to be cleaned out of unsafe material as soon as possible, and that this could only be feasibly done by removing the siding. Again, the HPC's statements appear to be contradictory, as their suggestion for alleviating the financial burden of installing wood siding is the opposite of what was said for removing the unsafe materials in the walls- i.e. spred the project out over many years vs. project needs to be done as soon as possible. A further contradiction that should be noted was in another commissioners reason for denial: " Commissioner Ponder (AYE)...If we allow you to do it- and yes, I understand the financial hardship- if someone else comes with a smaller project, then they will use this as leverage to say 'hey, you let them do it, why can't you let us do it?'...' (HPC minutes, 11/18/19) And yet, in Commissioner Stalhiem's proposal from the beginning of the discussion (see above quote) it was suggested that an addendum could be put into the approval of the COA with a stipulation that this kind of decision would not become a precedent. Thus commissioner Ponder's reasoning for ignoring the financial hardship due to concern for an unfavorable precedent being set was contradicted in Commissioner Stalhiem's statement. The one Nay in the 6-1 vote was cited by the particular commissioner as being because of road speed, foliage/vegetation, and distance from the road making it unlikely that someone would notice the subtle difference in the siding the Modlin's presented. In summary, at many different times during the meeting financial hardship on the family was clearly acknowledged, and yet at every turn it was ignored or refuted with arguments that were contradictory. The HPC moved to deny the COA despite quite clearly recognizing that it was a severe financial hardship. The blatant disregard for the financial hardship on the family and the contradictory arguments and reasoning suggest a bias against the applicant and/or property. Also concerning is the disregard for the legal stipulation that the HPC must consider "The potential hardship that the denial of a certificate of appropriateness would cause the applicant" (see Standard of Review section) when making a COA decision. IV. Conclusion A. The HPC's denial of COA#2019-1007A did not adequately consider the financial hardship on our family or the health and safety concerns for our family. Both of these concerns were recognized by the commissioners during the two meetings. Ben and Carrie Modlin request that the South Bend Common Council consider the financial burdens on our family and health and safety concerns to our family. Ben and Carrie Modlin request that based on these factors the South Bend Common Council over turn the HPC's denial and approve Ben and Carrie Modlin's COA#2019-1007A. B. Carrie and Ben Modlin are bringing this concern to the South Bend Common Council in hopes of concluding this matter without further legal costs. Ben and Carrie Modlin are both school teachers in the community and simply do not have the financial resources that the HPC has at their command. We wish to thank the South Bend Common Council for their consideration and support and we hope that common sense will prevail. Ultimately, we wish for the South Bend Common Council to repeal the Landmark Status of the Property and/or approve the proposed work to be done. Exhibit A Staff Report 10-08-2019 STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: October 8,2019 Application Number: 2019-1007A `• Property Location: 60649 Hickory Road Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Gabled-Ell/Stick/ 1869/ "Gerry Battles Farm" Property Owner: Ben and Carrie Modlin Landmark or District Designation: Historic Landmark(Ordinance #127-78) Rating: Notable DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: 2-1/2 story Gabled-Ell/Stick style on a rough dressed stone foundation. Roof is cross plan with gable front and jerkin head side gable. Front porch has a single turned post,rear porch is slightly projecting with turned posts and a concrete stoop.The walls are original wood weatherboard shiplap siding with corner boards. Front windows have a wood,raised head with labels where other windows have plain labels. There is a two-story bay window with scrolled brackets.The side bay has a jerkin head roof with art nouveau scrolled decorations on the fascia.Front gable end has an ornate scrollwork decorative fascia,with pendants. There are two front doors with transoms,one with a full light. ALTERATIONS: The St.Joseph County ordinance in 1978 designating and establishing the Historic Landmark originally included 80 acres.The parcel has since been subdivided and was annexed to the City of South Bend in 1989.While the farm mostly retains the plan of its original buildings,changes to the property without COA are evidenced on aerial maps including the removal of a silo,removal of a small outbuilding to the southwest corner,and removal/modern replacement of the upper portion of the bank barn,retaining the foundation. COA 1988-0512 approved tear off roofing,redeck with plywood;apply new shingles with fiberglass Owens-Corning 3-in-1 type. COA 2011-0310 approved tear off and re-roof with 3 &1 shingle and new decking-felt paper ice shield. Windows are noted on the 1999 survey card as mostly 2/2 light but have since been replaced with 1/1 vinyl double hung(no COA on record)as evidenced in photos dating back to 2011. Current owners have removed the original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on the south and west sides,installing new artificial siding without COA. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Removal of decayed existing siding, animal feces, bat habitat exclusion, beehives, mold, waterlogged and damaged material, removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity.Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications. Please see supporting documentation." See additional written description of project. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a retroactive Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 1. Remove original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on house, a. Completed on south and west sides 2. Install Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material a. Completed on south and west sides Prior to the current owners,the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy,including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as"rotting".In 2012, Commission staff met with new owner Ben Modlin to go over the scope of work,including"exterior routine maintenance and repair",although no Certificate of Appropriateness applications are on file.In May 2017,Commission staff mailed a Minimum Maintenance Standards letter to the Modlin's,commending their efforts to maintain and preserve the historic character of the property that included a reminder that any project that affects the exterior of the building,site,outbuildings,grounds,or landscaping will require review,and a completed COA application,with a reference to the Standards. The siding replacement without COA or Building Permit was discovered by Historic Preservation staff during St Joseph County Historic Landmark site visits on 8/27/19 and reported to the Building Department. The Building Department posted a cease and desist on 8/30/19,followed by a Violation letter 9/18/19. The original wood weatherboard shiplap siding,corner boards,and wood,raised head labels at windows are important in defining the overall historic character of the building. As evidenced by the owner's description and supporting photographs,the original siding demonstrates an advanced state of deterioration and has become permeable to water. Furthermore,the discoveries made inside the wall cavities provides reasonable cause for removing the original siding to remediate the materials in the wall cavities. While the original siding may have the ability to be repaired and made impermeable, it likely will not withstand removal to clean the wall cavities and reinstallation. Staff accepts that the original siding is deteriorated beyond repair. Group B Standards discourage the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.If the historic material cannot be repaired because of the extent of deterioration or damage,the preferred treatment is replacement in kind with the same material,wood shiplap in this case. Because this approach is not always feasible,provisions are made in Group B Standards to consider the use of a substitute material if it is of the same material as the original, in the same size and texture.The Standard does provide for an alternative material if it duplicates the original, however,the proposed PVC wood simulated siding is not of the same material as the original,is not in the same size (width of the clapboards is scaled up without a shiplap edge)or texture(embossed wood graining, intended to simulate the texture of wood, is not characteristic of real wood siding and is visually inappropriate).The proposed PVC product is not a familiar replacement product;this may in fact be the first application before this Commission. There is precedent for engineered wood products such as HardiePlank and LP SmartSide,as well as traditional vinyl siding,all having a shiplap style option. Applicants have submitted comparison quotes for Celect, cedar siding,vinyl siding, original siding repair, and another for new wood. Below is a summary of the costs for the materials and for painting(where applicable). Celect PVC siding cedar siding vinyl siding—Big C repair original siding tongue&groove -Kimmel siding-Mastercraft $11,230 $60,970 $2,796.55 $23,000 $16,170 Staff has requested more detail about the plan to repair/replace the trim around the windows and at the roof gable to "closely match the original"—specifically which architectural details and what the material will be. The National Park Service Preservation Brief#8 Aluminum and Vinyl Siding on Historic Buildings: The Appropriateness of Substitute Materials for Resurfacing Historic Wood Frame Buildings was consulted for this staff report. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: Group B The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans, specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1. Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary, the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F. Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping (These standards apply to both A and B) 1.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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,green houses,new walls,fountains,fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2.Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs,drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style,materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,frees,fencing, walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends allowing for the replacement of original siding. Staff does not recommend the proposed replacement siding because it does not conform to Group B Standards with additional consideration for the Notable rating of the property. Staff recommends a replacement siding that more closely resembles the original in style,size,and texture,preferably wood shiplap. Staff recommends that all trim around the windows,the roof gable,and the brackets replicate the original.

Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods following the manufacturer's written specifications. A wet spring revealed significant water issues in our home. Repairs could not wait because of known health risks associated with fecal matter, moldy materials,and stinging insects. We could not subject our young children to these conditions. We chose a wood simulated siding because of the price difference between wood and Architectural Cellular Composite siding. The difference amounted to approximately $53,000. This would cause a financial hardship on our family. Also, it does not include wood trim material or labor to install. The existing deteriorated siding reveal is 5 '/o" the wood simulated siding reveal is 7". The distance from the road to the house is 85'. The distance from the road and the difference in the reveal would not significantly change the look and charm of the house. Along with the siding the deteriorated window trim is being repaired or replaced as necessary. In addition it is our intent to repair the cornicing and ginger bread to closely match the original. Materials to be used (Supplemented with manufactures' brochures and specifications) 7" Wood simulated Celect Cellular Composite siding and trim by Royal. haps://www.royalbuildingnroducts.com/sites/rbp/files/20I 8-01/celect-contratorhandbook 2018. �df https://www.rovalbuiId ingproducts.com/sites/rbp/files/2019-06/rbp_cclect_homeowner sellshcct us 2019 0.pdf Clayton Hoover and Sons 21047 Morning Dove Trail South Bend, IN 46614 (574)288-8630 claytonHoover1@gmail.com Proposal PROPOSAL# 1575 DATE 11/11/2019 ADDRESS Ben Modlin 60649 Hickory Road South Bend, IN 46614 PLEASE DETACH TOP PORTION AND RETURN WITH YOUR PAYMENT.

Any deteriorated siding should be replaced by sheeting that represents modern standards,but boards of sound `,; integrity should be left in place and sided over with house wrap&vinyl to match. There is 4 probably over 759/0 of siding that is good to stay. i. Also, I believe that it is disadvantageous to open up walls at top band not beottom in o st eremoective.ve an) existing insulation.

Can Celect siding and trim be repainted? Celect siding panels are most easily cut using Yes. We recommend 100% acrylic latex paint. standard wood cutting tools such as a miter saw If you're going to paint the product a darker color, or circular saw for straight cuts and jig saw consult the paint manufacturer for the LRV(Light around obstacles. The best tool for Celect Trim is Reflectance Value). Painting Celect products with paint a power miter saw. darker than 56% on the LRV scale voids the product warranty. Do the cut ends need to be sealed? There are paint manufacturers that sell coatings No, not necessarily. The only reason to coat specifically designed for PVC. These paints are typically them is if the ends are going to be visible. This referred to as "vinyl-safe" paints or "heat reflective" way the finish color will match the adjacent coatings. sides of the part. Where and when can I use caulking? NOTES The use of caulking should be held at a minimum. If it is desired for esthetic reasons, caulking can be used around window and door trim, etc. Never caulk at any expansion gaps such as in trim pockets or at the top of corners. My existing windows have a built In J channel. Do I still need additional trim around the window? Typically yes. Celect horizontal profiles require 1/2"to 1" expansion gaps along the jams of windows and most built in channels are only 3/" deep. This means that the end of the panel could contract to the point that it would be visible outside the pocket of the channel. The same holds true for Celect Board and Batten panels only not at the jambs but above and below windows for the same reason. Unless the built in trim is at least 1" in depth, additional trim should be installed. 60 61 111111.11.1111.111111.1.1.11111.1111.1111.11111 CONTRACTOR CHECK LISTS ��������•UU.al������� .ua••uu1111uNuuum11111111000•U 1111.11.11111.1.111111111111.111.111111111111111 WALL PREPARATION CHECK LIST •UUUU•••UU•UU.UU•U••M ❑ Solid,flat, nailable surface (OBS, Plywood, 1111.1111111111111...111MMIIIIIIIIIIM fanfold over solid existing siding) 11111111.111......111.11111111.111=11111 ❑ Weather protective barrier(wrap, etc.) .1111111111111.1111.10111111.11.1111111111 ❑ Code compliant flashings •••••••••••••••••••NU 111111.111.1111111.111.11.1111111.111.11. 11 1.....111.111111111111111111111.1111.11111. ......u.111..u........

The Gerry Battles Farm at 60649 Hickory has been purchased by Ben Modlin. He came in this morning to explain the scope of work that he is planning on performing to bring the house up to standards. All the exterior work will be routine maintenance and repair. He's a Purdue grad and is doing most of the work himself. This house has been vacant for many years and the subject of many inquiries to this Office. But Ben is now the owner as of April 25 and it looks like the place is in very good hands.

A single chimney punctuates the roof line. The exterior is wood clapboard with square shingles in the gables. The asphalt shingle roof is cross-gabled with cornice returns and a very wide rake;frieze and moulded cornice. One-over-one double-hung windows with moulded entabulatures throughout;third-story gable has both nine-over-one and six-over-one double-hung windows. Two front doors lead onto the full-width front porch with grouped Doric columns and balustrades;the moulded cornice has wood brackets at either end of the porch fascia that are spiraled. ALTERATIONS: A garage built sometime after 1917 for this structure stood behind 435 W Lamonte Terrace;this was torn down sometime prior to 1998. Multiple alterations to the rear of the structure have enclosed and reconfigured the rear entrance/porches. The bases of some of the front porch columns have been replaced. A wooden front stair railing replaced what appears to be a metal railing sometime after 1987 and before 2003. Administrative Approval#2019-0930 allowed for the repair of the chimney flashing,roof,soffit,porch roof,and cedar shingle siding,as well as the reinstallation of gutters as needed.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: I. Resizing of second story rear window(at northeast corner). The current window receives constant moisture contact from the adjacent roof,leading to accelerated deterioration. Applicant seeks to decrease the overall size of the window enclosure to`raise up'the window sill above the adjacent exterior roof line. a Window Configuration i. The existing sashes have been retained and appear in decent/restorable condition. These could be cut down in size to accommodate the new window size. The frame of the window has been removed and appears to have deteriorated and would need to be reconstructed. This new framing would require skilled carpentry work. Staff would prefer to see original material(that is in good condition)be re-used in the future window enclosure. ii. In lieu of using the original window sashes,staff would consider appropriate window replacement,but no product proposal has been submitted. b. Exterior siding: i. New wood material would be used to replicate the existing siding. 2. The existing rear door would be replaced with a door as indicated in the imagery. New framing will be constructed as needed. SITE VISIT REPORT:Preservation Specialist Toering visited the site on Monday,September 30th,2019 to discuss the proposed project and photograph the project areas. Windows and doors described as being re-used are in good/stable condition and would make excellent candidates for transfer to the new locations. Specialist Toering took the opportunity to give an introduction to the construction and repair of original wood windows with the Pobanz_ STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:CHAPIN PARK IL 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 materials 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 repellant 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. B.ROOFS AND ROOFING Roof shapes in the district encompass all the various designs found in residential structures:hipped,gabled,gambrel,flat and combinations of these.Roofs are covered with a variety of materials such as asphalt,asbestos,wood and slate shingles as well as clay tiles.Residences in most cases have wood fascias with gutters and downspouts.The fascias of some vinyl-and aluminum-sided houses are covered with the same materials. Required The existing shape and type of materials of the roof shall be retained.All architectural features,which give the roof its essential character,shall be retained,including dormer windows,cupolas,cornices,brackets,chimneys,cresting and weather vanes. Recommended The original shape and materials of the roof should be restored.Particular effort should be made to retain materials such as slate, tile and other unique materials not commonly found in new construction. Roof covering which is deteriorated beyond repair should be replaced with new material that matches as closely as possible the original in composition,size,shape,color and texture.Gutters and downspouts are often a necessary adjunct in order to prevent deterioration of the structure;they should be maintained whenever possible or replaced with a style comparable and suitable to the architectural period. Prohibited Nothing shall be done to change the essential character of the roof as viewed from a street by adding architectural features or large unsightly fixtures,or by using materials inappropriate to the style of the house.The roof shall not be stripped of architectural features important to its character. Not Recommended Overhanging eaves,soffit,brackets and gables should not be covered or enclosed when adding siding to a building. 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. 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. Not Recommended Original porch details should not be replaced with materials representing a different period or style from the original. Ill.NEW CONSTRUCTION New construction includes any new building or structure built within the boundaries of the historic district,or any new addition to an existing building. New construction should be designed considering the appearance,scale,styles and setbacks of the other buildings in the neighborhood. New work may be contemporary or may suggest motifs from historic buildings in the district. A.HEIGHT AND PROPORTION The majority of the structures in the district are two stories in height and have square or rectangular plans. There are several houses that have L-or T-shaped or rambling ground plans. There are a few single-story cottages and one-and one-and-a-half story bungalows. The most prevalent facade proportions are between a 1:1 and 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 in the same block. Façade proportion shall be established by permitting no structure with a facade wider or narrower than those existing in the same block. Additions to the existing buildings shall be related in height and proportion to the existing structure. Recommended Design of new construction should be compatible in character and mood to the building or neighborhood. Prohibited Additions that would add new height or change the existing facade of a building,and change its scale and architectural character shall not be considered. Not Recommended New stories should not be added nor existing stories be removed which would destroy important architectural details,features and spaces of the building. Any style or period of architecture that is incompatible with the existing should not be permitted in the new additions. B.BUILDING MATERIALS Wall materials in the district range from brick,stucco and wood clapboard and shingles,to aluminum,vinyl and fiberboard/composite siding. Required Exterior materials used on a new structure shall be compatible in scale,texture and color(as pertains to masonry)with adjacent structures. Materials used on an addition to an existing structure shall related to the existing or original materials of that structure. Also,as much of the original structure as possible shall be retained so that the addition could be removed without damage to the basic structure and appearance of the building. Recommended Alternative or composite siding may be used when it is the only feasible alternative. This siding should be compatible with the original size and style and with the materials of other buildings in the district. Prohibited Inappropriate materials such as asbestos,asphalt,cast stone or artificial brick shall not be used. Not Recommended Glass blocks should not be used. Concrete block should not be used for anything other than the foundations. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends approval of the project as submitted. Staff would like the original sashes to be resized and reconfigured in the new smaller window opening. Prepared by Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist Recommendation by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator PETITIONER COMMENTS: Mr.Pobanz stated that they believed that instead of resizing the window that they believe they could move it away from the roof line. Ms.Pobanz clarified that the sashes are fine,but the frame is rotted. They won't have to resize or replace the sashes. Commissioner Hertel thanked for the applicants for buying the house,as it has a lot of potential. Mr.Pobanz stated that they won't be able to get to finishing the window this winter,so they have installed a temporary window covering in the interim until it can be fixed. Commissioner Hertel clarified that the Commission's motion should include this temporary window,with a condition related to the time frame of its replacement. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: N/A COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Hertel stated it is very obvious that this is a bad window. Commissioner Hertel then asked if they had considered installing a downspout from the to-be-installed gutter to draw water away from the sill of the window. Ms.Pobanz explained that part of the problem is that the gutter above had failed and needed to be replaced,that it should help to draw the water away from window. Commissioner Stalheim stated he would support the resizing the window to allow for better flashing. Ms.Pobanz stated that moving the window will allow for additional flashing height,that they would be moving the window 18". That the siding would be replaced with new wood cedar siding. Commissioner Hertel asked for more information about the door being installed at the rear. Ms.Pobanz stated that it is an interior door,that they hoped to install a storm door on the outside. The new door would be taller than the existing door by approximately a foot. The light would be moved above the door to accommodate this newer size. REOPENED PUBLIC DISCUSSION: Dr.Joan Downs-Krostenko,849 Forest Avenue:The door is very beautiful interior door,it is very weird to put an interior door on the outside of the house. You would have never seen a door of that format on the exterior of the house. I think it is going to look funny. I think it is a beautiful door,and I can see why you would like to have a door with plenty of glass in it;but the exterior door for the back of the house should not be that door. Commissioner Ponder made a motion to approve the 1)resizing or moving the second story rear window,2)temporary window installation for the duration of the Certificate's approval,3) replacement of wood siding with new cedar siding as needed,and 4) replacement of the rear door with the supplied wood door with the storm door remanded to staff.Seconded by Commissioner Stalheim. Four in favor,none opposed. Vote:4—0. Motion to remand COA#2019-0923A to staff is passed. 2. 60649 Hickory Road #2019-1007A #127-78 Local Landmark Representation: Ben Modlin,60649 Hickory Road, South Bend,IN 46614 Came Modlin,60649 Hickory Road, South Bend,IN 46614 STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: October 8,2019 Application Number: 2019-1007A Property Location: 60649 Hickory Road Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder:Gabled-Ell/Stick/ 1869/"Gerry Battles Farm" Property Owner: Ben and Carrie Modlin Landmark or District Designation: Historic Landmark(Ordinance#127-78) Rating: Notable DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: 2-1/2 story Gabled-Ell/Stick style on a rough dressed stone foundation.Roof is cross plan with gable front and jerkin head side gable.Front porch has a single turned post,rear porch is slightly projecting with turned posts and a concrete stoop.The walls are original wood weatherboard shiplap siding with corner boards.Front windows have a wood,raised head with labels where other windows have plain labels.There is a two-story bay window with scrolled brackets.The side bay has a jerkin head roof with art nouveau scrolled decorations on the fascia.Front gable end has an ornate scrollwork decorative fascia,with pendants.There are two front doors with transoms,one with a full light. ALTERATIONS: The St.Joseph County ordinance in 1978 designating and establishing the Historic Landmark originally included 80 acres.The parcel has since been subdivided and was annexed to the City of South Bend in 1989.While the farm mostly retains the plan of its original buildings,changes to the property without COA are evidenced on aerial maps including the removal of a silo,removal of a small outbuilding to the southwest corner,and removal/modern replacement of the upper portion of the bank barn,retaining the foundation. COA 1988-0512 approved tear off roofing,redeck with plywood;apply new shingles with fiberglass Owens-Corning 3-in-1 type.COA 2011-0310 approved tear off and re-roof with 3&1 shingle and new decking-felt paper ice shield. Windows are noted on the 1999 survey card as mostly 2/2 light but have since been replaced with 1/1 vinyl double hung(no COA on record)as evidenced in photos dating back to 2011. Current owners have removed the original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on the south and west sides,installing new artificial siding without COA. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Removal of decayed existing siding.inrinh,l ees.hat hahitm._xrclusion.heehaws.mold. waterlogged and damaged material,removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity.Installation of new fiberglass bait insulation,new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap,new flashings,new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications.Please see supporting documentation." See additional written description of project. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a retroactive Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 3. Remove original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on house, a. Completed on south and west sides 4. Install Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material a. Completed on south and west sides Prior to the current owners,the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy,including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as"rotting".In 2012,Commission staff met with new owner Ben Modlin to go over the scope of work,including"exterior routine maintenance and repair",although no Certificate of Appropriateness applications are on file. In May 2017,Commission staff mailed a Minimum Maintenance Standards letter to the Modlin's,commending their efforts to maintain and preserve the historic character of the property that included a reminder that any project that affects the exterior of the building,site,outbuildings,grounds,or landscaping will require review,and a completed COA application,with a reference to the Standards. The siding replacement without COA or Building Permit was discovered by Historic Preservation staff during St Joseph County Historic Landmark site visits on 8/27/19 and reported to the Building Department.The Building Department posted a cease and desist on 8/30/19,followed by a Violation letter 9/18/19. The original wood weatherboard shiplap siding,corner boards,and wood,raised head labels at windows are important in defining the overall historic character of the building.As evidenced by the owner's description and supporting photographs,the original siding demonstrates an advanced state of deterioration and has become permeable to water.Furthermore,the discoveries made inside the wall cavities provides reasonable cause for removing the original siding to remediate the materials in the wall cavities.While the original siding may have the ability to be repaired and made impermeable,it likely will not withstand removal to clean the wall cavities and reinstallation.Staff accepts that the original siding is deteriorated beyond repair. Group B Standards discourage the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.If the historic material cannot be repaired because of the extent of deterioration or damage,the preferred treatment is replacement in kind with the same material,wood shiplap in this case.Because this approach is not always feasible,provisions are made in Group B Standards to consider the use of a substitute material if it is of the same material as the original,in the same size and texture. The Standard does provide for an alternative material if it duplicates the original,however,the proposed PVC wood simulated siding is not of the same material as the original,is not in the same size(width of the clapboards is scaled up without a shiplap edge)or texture(embossed wood graining,intended to simulate the texture of wood,is not characteristic of real wood siding and is visually inappropriate).The proposed PVC product is not a familiar replacement product;this may in fact be the first application before this Commission.There is precedent for engineered wood products such as HardiePlank and LP SmartSide, as well as traditional vinyl siding,all having a shiplap style option. Applicants have submitted comparison quotes for Celect,cedar siding,vinyl siding,original siding repair,and another for new wood.Below is a summary of the costs for the materials and for painting(where applicable). Celect PVC siding cedar siding vinyl siding–Big C repair original siding tongue&groove –Kimmel siding-Mastercraft $11,230 $60,970 $2,796.55 $23,000 $16,170 Staff has requested more detail about the plan to repair/replace the trim around the windows and at the roof gable to"closely match the original"–specifically which architectural details and what the material will be. The National Park Service Preservation Brief#8 Aluminum and Vinyl Siding on Historic Buildings:The Appropriateness of Substitute Materials for Resurfacing Historic Wood Frame Buildings was consulted for this staff report. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:Group B The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment, renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans,specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1.Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary,the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F.Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Buildint Site and Landscaping (These standards apply to both A and B) 1.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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,green houses,new walls,fountains, fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2.Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs, drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style, materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees,fencing, walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends allowing for the replacement of original siding.Staff does not recommend the proposed replacement siding because it does not conform to Group B Standards with additional consideration for the Notable rating of the property.Staff recommends a replacement siding that more closely resembles the original in style,size, and texture,preferably wood shiplap.Staff recommends that all trim around the windows,the roof gable,and the brackets replicate the original. Prepared by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator and Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist PETITIONER COMMENTS: Mr.Modlin stated that the costs as summarized in the staff report were incorrect. The cedar siding was$40,000 for$70,000 plus,and that more detailed information was requested. Mr.Modlin estimated that it would cost$17,500 to paint. Mr.Modlin had Danny Kimmel estimated that it would cost$23,000 to paint the cedar siding. From the tongue-and- groove estimate was for labor and installation,and that was a$43,000 estimation from Mastercraft construction. Total for wood siding would be$117,000 or so. Commissioner Hertel asked for clarification,as she believed that Mr.Modlin had been doing the installation. Mr.Modlin confirmed,yes,that they were asked to give more of an estimate if they were to hire the project out. Mr.Modlin estimated that it would take 350 man hours to paint,at a value of approximately$17,500; Danny Kimmel estimated it would cost$23,000 to paint. To install the siding,Mr.Modlin estimated$40,000,Mastercraft estimated$43,000. The painting estimate did not include tax. Commissioner Stalheim asked if the vapor barrier was included in the cost. Mr.Modlin confirmed that vapor barrier was included,but it does not include the mesh underlayment layer. The reason wood was included was to show the massive cost difference. Just the wood alone is a financial hardship. They cannot afford the wood,they cannot afford to have it installed,they cannot afford to have it painted. Commissioner Hertel asked if Mr.Modlin is updating his application. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that they were not updating the application,they were clarifying that there were three cost estimate options and not five. Commissioner Hertel clarified that the three options are 1.)select PVC siding at$11,230,2)the Cedar siding at$40,470 plus painting and labor,and 3)vinyl siding. Administrator Feasel clarified her interpretation of the Kimmel quote(which read"scrape and paint")as having been to rehabilitate the original siding,it was clarified that this was to paint all of the new material to be installed and the old trim and eave details material. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: Mr.Mark Modlin,519 Benton Street,Mishawaka—the father of the applicant. Mr.Modlin spoke of how the project"was going to be a big undertaking,and that they were able to get the house but they were probably the last best hope for the house. The house was vacant and in ruin for a long time. It had a lot of ongoing deterioration,but 1 think he made a pretty good purchase with a good effort to make it a home. And I think in making it a home,they are heading in the right direct. The costs for replication of a lot of the products are prohibitive,a homeowner who is just getting started. It is a beautiful home,and I think it could be a very long term home for these kids." Joan Downs-Krostenko,849 Forest Avenue—"I have restored nine houses,and have put lots of new wood siding where original wood siding was damaged or had been rotted out,so Cm familiar with that. And I've painted all of these houses,so I am familiar with that. My question with this is—is every piece of siding on that house rotten? Is your bid to take it all off and replace it? Every bit of wood on the house is rotten? Mr.Modlin stated every bit of siding is rotten. Ms.Downs-Krostenko stated:"So every bit of siding is rotten. [Specialist Toering],is that accurate?" Commissioner Hertel stated that there were two areas that have already been replaced. Administrator Feasel stated that staff has not conducted a site visit to determine the condition of the structure. Ms.Downs-Krostenko stated that she had never seen a house where all of the wood was rotten. In most cases,you need to replace 10-15%of the wood. This could be the exception,but mostly you do not see that all of the wood needs to be replaced. In her experience,she has never heard of any case where all of the wood is fully rotten. Finally,the holy grail of historic preservation is to avoid vinyl siding,plastic siding,metal siding,all the kinds of replacement siding that do not replicate the material,texture,reveal of the original siding,and often times ruin the trim. That is the entire point of what we do here,and I do appreciate the cost of what you are doing here,because I have confronted it exactly like you have. Many,many times. I have always been able to salvage most of that original wood. Scraping,priming, all of that is expensive,but I have found ways to do that inexpensively,in pieces where I can afford to do it,a little bit at a time. Mr.Modlin stated that there were significant amounts of bat feces_ Mr.Modlin,Sr.stated that there was also rot,and mice feces. It's a health hazard. Ms.Downs-Krostenko reiterated that the agenda of historic preservation is to replace with in kind materials,and that can be done over time. When you do open the door for alternative materials,then you might have a really big project that has all of these problems,but then the next project comes in and its smaller,and the applicant says"but you let these people do it,you let them put up vinyl." Then we are in a real big giant pile of bad stuff. COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Hertel stated that,if this this was a new project,the`things underneath',we would not know. In those other projects,as those things are revealed,they would be addressed. So the bees,the cellulose insulation would be addressed as it is found to make the home habitable. Commissioner Stalheim stated that Commission would support that action. Commissioner Hertel explained that the applicant has lived in the house for multiple years,that they have known the COA process(as noted in the letter that is included in your packet dated 2017). That the applicant received glowing statements regarding the preservation of the structure at that time,"we are thrilled to see the condition of your home and commend your efforts to preserve your historic property." Commissioner Ponder asked about the alternative materials that had been mentioned. Administrator Feasel explained that staff included those materials as they had been previously approved by the Commission, that it was unknown what those materials would cost,and that staff would prefer an in-kind replacement with wood ship-lap siding. Commissioner Stalheim stated they may be offered,but they be more expensive because this is an atypical mill pattern. Administrator Feasel stated that she had interpreted the Kimmel quote as a quote for rehabilitation of the existing siding,and that Staff has not seen the material,nor has an estimate has been received. The house is more than likely balloon- frame construction,so an expert may know of a way to open up the walls to remove the insulation material. Commissioner Brazinksy stated that she had owned a similar house in Wisconsin and that they removed the bottom boards and removed the insulation. She then stripped and painted the siding. The house was not a(designated)historic home. Administrator Feasel stated that were this a proactive application,that would have been the first thing that Staff would have suggested to the applicant,what is the cost of doing that. Because this project is partially retroactive,it's taken us a bit off guard. Were it proactive,that's how we would have addressed this project. I think that's missing from this project application. Mr.Modlin stated that there is no vapor barrier,and that they'd have to remove it all. That doing all wood is prohibitively expensive. Commissioner Hertel explained her opposition to PVC and vinyl siding and expressed that it is a responsibility to uphold the historic integrity of these homes,especially ones like this one,which were here long before much of anything else in the area. Commissioner Stalheim inquired as to what the plan was as to the decorative elements on the roof and over the windows. Mr.Modlin stated that he is in the process of repairing those,and that some have gone missing,and he's going to have to re-mill them as close as possible,with marine grade plywood,CNC'd out. Commissioner Stalheim asked if all would be replaced. Ms.Modlin stated that that would depend on the condition of the remaining pieces and indicated in the imagery on the projector that some of the pieces are hanging dangerously off the house. Mr.Modlin stated that he thought the new material looks good from the street. Commissioner Hertel expressed that she believes you can tell the difference between PVC,vinyl,and wood. She further stated that she agreed with Dr.Downs-Krostenko that it seems impossible that all the siding is bad,and that the replacement material should have the proper look. That there is evidence of long-term neglect. That she is hesitant to make a quick judgement. That she would like to see a better estimate as to the current siding condition. That replacing some of the material would be cheaper than replacing all of the material. Commissioner Brazinsky asked how long of a continuance would be needed to get an estimate. Administrator Feasel stated that it would be on the applicant to talk with restoration experts to determine the cost and time of that kind of project. That staff's role at this point would be negligible,as we have already determined the siding to be deteriorated beyond repair. Commissioner Brazinsky reiterated that the siding looked identical to what she had in Wisconsin,that had insects and bees nests. Commissioner Brazinsky stated that she was between outright denial and continuing for more information. Commissioner Hertel explained that the Commission could deny the application as it currently exists,which would require the applicant to reapply for the exterior changes again. The Commission could offer a continuance where you could get additional information that the Commission is requesting and come back at the next meeting with that information (without paying additional application fees). Commissioner Hertel asked the applicant what they would like to do. Mr.Modlin asked if they could discuss the options. Commissioner Hertel stated that the meeting could not be postponed. Mr.Modlin asked what they should do in the interim regarding the health concerns related to the condition of the house. Commissioner Hertel stated that they should get with their contractor immediately,but that these conditions don't appear to be new problems. As homeowners they should be combatting any mold or other biological concerns with the appropriate bleach mixture. Mr.Modlin stated that they've tried and that they are this point,and that they believe the house exterior is beyond repair. When they were sitting in the basement when the tornado came through and they saw bat feces raining down from the wall because the rain was coming in,it was actionable. The only way that was feasible was to take the old off and put the new on. Commissioner Hertel reiterated that they are still at the same point as five minutes ago:the Commission can deny the application,or give a continuance to find additional information. Mr.Modlin Sr.interjected that you have to have the money to be able to do the work. Mr.Modlin asked clarified that the options are continuation or denial. Commissioner Hertel explained that the Commission's feelings are apparent,and that the Commission wants to empower you to make the house better. Ms.Modlin asked what the time frame of the continuation would be. Legal Counsel Kennedy explained that the next meeting would within the time frame of the current application. Commissioner Stalheim expressed concerns regarding the weather. Administrator Feasel expressed that any additional information would need to be received by the COA deadline date. Mr.Modlin asked what the status of the Red Tag from the Building Department would be. Administrator Feasel explained that Staff would contact the Building Department to inform them that the project was still under review and more information would be available in late November. Commissioner Ponder made a motion to continue COA#2019-1007A and request the applicant get additional information about restoration of the exterior siding(with information about the amount of salvageable material),with the date of November 126 for more information. Seconded by Commissioner Brazinsky. Four in favor,none opposed. Vote: 4—0. Motion to continue COA#2019-1007A is passed. 3. 2119 Portage Avenue #2019-1011A #7020-82 Local Landmark Representation: Woodrow Bowers,25375 Yankee Street, Edwardsburg,MI 49112 Jeff McKelvey,2119 Portage Avenue, South Bend,IN 46616 Mary McKelvey, 2119 Portage Avenue, South Bend,IN 46616 STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: October 17,2019 Application Number: 2019-1011A Property Location: 2119 Portage Avenue Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Greek Revival/1865—"Isaac Marble House" Property Owner: Jeff and Mary McKelvey Landmark or District Designation: Local Landmark,Ordinance#7020-82 Rating: Outstanding DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: Two story Greek Revival(with ancillary one story wings)on brick foundation. Two chimneys and a later heater exhaust punctuate the roof line. Exterior is brick with a stretcher bond,stone sills and lintels. The roof is a shallow gable with short eave overhang and large frieze. The soffit was enclosed prior to landmarking. Two wings were added flanking the original structure,later windows were installed in those additions. Windows are double-hung 6- over-6 on the second story and double-hung 6-over-9 on the first story. Some fixed windows are found in the original structure. Casements exist in the later additions. A front porch spans the original structure,a side entrance has a stepped stoop. ALTERATIONS: Two wing additions were added sometime in the 20th century(sometime after 1946?). COA#1986-0903 allowed for the construction of an addition to the west side of the garage,as well as reroofing of the south addition. COA #1986-1008 allowed for re-roofing and aluminum soffits on the south wing addition. A`cabana'was constructed attached to the garage without COA in 1987. COA#1987-0807 allowed for the construction of the front porch. COA#1990-0606 allowed for reconstruction of the deteriorated chimney with new bricks. COA#1997-0829 allowed for masonry repairs to the main chimney. COA#1996-0912 allowed for additional repairs and modifications to the masonry of the main chimney. COA #2001-0417 allowed for the repair/replacement-in-kind of the split-rail fence on the property,landscaping,tree trimming. COA #2003-0929 allowed for the removal and replacement of exterior storm doors and entrance doors. COA#2006-0329-1 allowed for the re-roofing of portions of the garage,as well as repair of the damages to the main roof. COA#2006-0720A allowed for the re-roof of the main structure and garage with Tamko Heritage 30-year shingles,as well as the replacement of the static air vents. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Overlay metal on shingles,remove stove vent. (Standing-seam horizontal roof by Central States Manufacturing.Inc.)" DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 1. Installation of a Horizon-Lock(produced by Central States Manufacturing,Inc.)standing seam,textured painted steel roof over the existing asphalt shingles, a. Panels are 16",fabricated in varying lengths to accommodate different roof sections. b. 13"ridge cap(painted) 2. Remove the stove vent on the southern wing addition. The proposed material is a departure from the existing material. Metal was a common roofing material in the 19th century, although no record of it being used on this structure can be found. The 1932 Assessor Card Indicates that wood shingles were in use in the early part of the 20th century(this is indicated by`W.SH'on the assessor card). Standing seam metal roofs enjoy a long lifespan,if installed properly(by comparison,the current shingles are believed to be thirteen years old). Staff expresses one point of concern:if the new material is laid on top of the existing shingles,the flashing of the new metal roof will come into conflict with the existing stone window sills,specifically at the front porch and at the rear second story window(where the window air conditioning unit is located in the supplied photographs). The front porch design(when originally submitted in 1987)was modified to ensure the second floor window sills would not be impacted by the roof line. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:Local Landmark"Group B" The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans,specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: I.Structure--Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should he accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the originaL a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary,the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F.Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping(These standards apply to both A and B) 1.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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,green houses,new walls,fountains, fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2. Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs, drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style, materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees,fencing, walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends approval of the project as submitted,with the expressed concern that the stone window sill should not be adversely impacted by the addition of the metal roof material. Prepared by Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist Recommendation by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator PETITIONER COMMENTS: Mr.Bowers explained that the window sill in the back is already blocked by the existing roof line,and that in the front the new roof may impact the sills at the seam locations.. He then supplied additional pictures regarding the proposed installation of the roof material. He further explained previous examples that he had installed that were similar to this project. Ms.McKelvey stated that she wanted to bring it back to a historic condition,and that she didn't paint it. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: Ms.Downs-Krostenko stated that standing-seam metal roofs were not installed in this area north of the Ohio River valley. Does the Commission have any discussion or concerns of color as to metal roofs? She expressed concern that color should be looked into by the Commission going forward. Mr.Bowers responded that he had seen tins roofs installed. COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Stalheim stated that fortunately they want a dark colored roof. Commissioner Hertel stated that there is concern about color going forward. Commissioner Hertel also expressed concern regarding the front windows. Commissioner Stalheim asked how the flashing is installed into and beneath the windows. Mr.Bowers expressed that they would not adversely impact the windows. Commissioner Hertel expressed that the Commission wants the homeowner to have a long-term roof solution,so is protective on behalf of the applicant. Commissioner Hertel expressed concern regarding moisture infiltration into the existing shingles that could cause other problems. Mr.Bowers explained the various layers that are installed beneath the roof material to both protect the roof material,as well as to create moisture barrier,where it runs the moisture out. Mr.Bowers further discussed historic barn structures that have metal roofs that have lasted one hundred years. Commissioner Stalheim confirmed that laying metal roof over existing shingles is common. Mr.Bowers expressed that these advances have helped measurably. Commissioner Stalheim asked about the widths of the panels themselves. Mr.Bowers explained that the residential width is 16". Commercial widths are 18". Commissioner Ponder asked about the gutters and soffits. Mr.Bowers explained that no change would be made to the gutters or soffits.

Commissioner Hertel read Ms.Joan Downs-Krostenko's letter of interest in the Architectural Historian position into the record: October 31,2019 Dear.Ms.Feasel, Thank you for the offer to join the Historic Preservation Commission. I am honored and would like to accept. Please see the attached resume for information on my professional and community work. I must remind you that although I am an art historian who works both on architecture and on urban design and landscape history specifically,my formal training is in the study of the ancient and medieval world. I hope this does not disqualify me because as you know,I am a preservationist at heart and a perpetual student. I have made my business and volunteer work in historic preservation in South Bend a vocation in which I am constantly educating myself. My art historical and architectural training has made me a quick study in the field of local 19`h and 20th century architecture. My inclinations and work as an archaeologist were entirely in the realm of preservation and research. I hope to be a contributing member of the commission and intend to continue my education in local history and architecture so as to provide accurate perspective when it is called for in discussion and decision-making. Sincerely, Joan Downs-Krostenko Commissioner Hertel made a motion to accept Ms.Downs-Krostenko's interest in the Architectural Historian position. Seconded by Commissioner Annis. Five in favor,none opposed. Vote: 5—0. Motion to accept Ms. Downs-Krostenko's application and appoint her to the Historic Preservation Commission is passed.

CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS 1. 60649 Hickory Road #2019-1007A #127-78 Local Landmark Representation: Ben Modlin,60649 Hickory Road, South Bend,IN 46614 Carrie Modlin,60649 Hickory Road, South Bend,IN 46614 STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: November 12,2019 Application Number: 2019-1007A conitnued Property Location: 60649 Hickory Road Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder:Gabled-Ell/Stick/1869/"Gerry Battles Farm" Property Owner: Ben and Carrie Modlin Landmark or District Designation: Historic Landmark(Ordinance#127-78) Rating: Notable DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: 2-1/2 story Gabled-Ell/Stick style on a rough dressed stone foundation.Roof is cross plan with gable front and jerkin head side gable.Front porch has a single turned post,rear porch is slightly projecting with turned posts and a concrete stoop.The walls are original wood weatherboard shiplap siding with corner boards.Front windows have a wood,raised head with labels where other windows have plain labels.There is a two-story bay window with scrolled brackets.The side bay has a jerkin head roof with art nouveau scrolled decorations on the fascia.Front gable end has an ornate scrollwork decorative fascia,with pendants.There are two front doors with transoms,one with a full light. ALTERATIONS: The St.Joseph County ordinance in 1978 designating and establishing the Historic Landmark originally included 80 acres.The parcel has since been subdivided and was annexed to the City of South Bend in 1989.While the farm mostly retains the plan of its original buildings,changes to the property without COA are evidenced on aerial maps including the removal of a silo,removal of a small outbuilding to the southwest corner,and removal/modern replacement of the upper portion of the bank barn,retaining the foundation. COA 1988-0512 approved tear off roofing,redeck with plywood;apply new shingles with fiberglass Owens-Corning 3-in-1 type.COA 2011-0310 approved tear off and re-roof with 3&I shingle and new decking-felt paper ice shield. Windows are noted on the 1999 survey card as mostly 2/2 light but have since been replaced with 1/1 vinyl double hung(no COA on record)as evidenced in photos dating back to 2011. Current owners have removed the original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on the south and west sides,installing new artificial siding without COA. APPLICATION ITEMS: "Removal of decayed existing siding, animal feces, bat habitat exclusion,beehives, mold, waterlogged and damaged material, removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity. Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications.Please see supporting documentation." See additional written description of project. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a retroactive Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 1. Remove original wood weatherboard shiplap siding on house, a. Completed on south and west sides 2. Install Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material a. Completed on south and west sides Prior to the current owners,the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy,including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as"rotting".In 2012,Commission staff met with new owner Ben Modlin to go over the scope of work,including"exterior routine maintenance and repair",although no Certificate of Appropriateness applications are on file.In May 2017,Commission staff mailed a Minimum Maintenance Standards letter to the Modlin's,commending their efforts to maintain and preserve the historic character of the property that included a reminder that any project that affects the exterior of the building,site,outbuildings, grounds,or landscaping will require review,and a completed COA application,with a reference to the Standards. The siding replacement without COA or Building Permit was discovered by Historic Preservation staff during St Joseph County Historic Landmark site visits on 8/27/19 and reported to the Building Department.The Building Department posted a cease and desist on 8/30/19,followed by a Violation letter 9/18/19. The original wood weatherboard shiplap siding,corner boards,and wood,raised head labels at windows are important in defining the overall historic character of the building. As evidenced by the owner's description and supporting photographs,the original siding demonstrates an advanced state of deterioration and has become permeable to water.Furthermore,the discoveries made inside the wall cavities provides reasonable cause for removing the original siding to remediate the materials in the wall cavities.While the original siding may have the ability to be repaired and made impermeable,it likely will not withstand removal to clean the wall cavities and reinstallation.Staff accepts that the original siding is deteriorated beyond repair. Group B Standards discourage the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.If the historic material cannot be repaired because of the extent of deterioration or damage,the preferred treatment is replacement in kind with the same material,wood shiplap in this case.Because this approach is not always feasible,provisions are made in Group B Standards to consider the use of a substitute material if it is of the same material as the original,in the same size and texture.The Standard does provide for an alternative material if it duplicates the original,however,the proposed PVC wood simulated siding is not of the same material as the original,is not in the same size(width of the clapboards is scaled up without a shiplap edge)or texture(embossed wood graining, intended to simulate the texture of wood,is not characteristic of real wood siding and is visually inappropriate). The proposed PVC product is not a familiar replacement product;this may in fact be the first application before this Commission.There is precedent for engineered wood products such as HardiePlank and LP SmartSide,as well as traditional vinyl siding,all having a shiplap style option. Applicants have submitted comparison quotes for Celect(application item),cedar siding,vinyl siding,and original siding repair.A summary(by staff)of the costs for the materials and for painting(where applicable)has been redacted from this report. Staff has requested more detail about the plan to repair/replace the trim around the windows and at the roof gable to "closely match the original"—specifically which architectural details and what the material will be. Results of the October 21 Historic Preservation Commission public hearing are: Commissioner Ponder made a motion to continue application#2019-1007A until the November 18th meeting.This continuance is to allow the applicant time to research and provide additional information about restoration of the existing wood siding,including: removing the bottom shiplap to allow for the removal of debris,ascertaining an estimate as to the amount of siding material that could be considered salvageable,estimates as to the cost of the restoration of that salvageable material.This information is requested by Tuesday,November 12th. Seconded by Commissioner Brazinsky. Four in favor,none opposed. Vote:4-0.Motion to continue COA#2019-1007A until the November 18th meeting is passed. Applicants have submitted two additional proposals,see:Clayton Hoover and Sons for salvaging remaining siding and mill new siding and Mignery&Son Contracting for vinyl siding. The National Park Service Preservation Brief#8 Aluminum and Vinyl Siding on Historic Buildings: The Appropriateness of Substitute Materials for Resurfacing Historic Wood Frame Buildings was consulted for this staff report. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: Group B The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans, specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carried through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1. Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary, the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F. Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping (These standards apply to both A and B) 1.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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, green houses,new walls,fountains,fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2.Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs,drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style,materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees, fencing,walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends allowing for the replacement of original siding.Staff does not recommend the proposed replacement siding because it does not conform to Group B Standards with additional consideration for the Notable rating of the property.Staff recommends a replacement siding that more closely resembles the original in style,size,and texture,preferably wood shiplap.Staff recommends that all trim around the windows,the roof gable,and the brackets replicate the original. Prepared by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator and Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist Commissioner Patrick Deegan joined the proceedings at 5:34 pm. PETITIONER COMMENTS: N/A COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Stalheim:Agree that the siding should be replaced,that,from the material that is apparent,that little could be saved. That the Commission should consider allowing the replacement,but consider approval and focus more on retaining the bigger details that you see from the street the fascia boards,the window trim,and focus on keeping those as accurate as possible,and forgo the cove detail of the shiplap for replacement siding,even though it is retroactive,with the stipulation in the approval so it doesn't become a precedent.That they retain any salvageable material,and keep it in good order,and since we know that plastic materials fail prematurely compared to other options—when this has to be replaced there's a stipulation in the approval that they come forward and it becomes a requirement for it to be more appropriate to the original house since we do have it documented in photographs. I do agree that the insulation and the innards of the wall need to be properly replaced. Commissioner Ponder:The estimates were worrisome: 1)one estimate showed the contractor wasn't going to remove the material in the wall,2)there were differing opinions as to what was salvageable. Commissioner Gelfman asked the Commission as to the details of the work as it was proposed the previous month,and that there seemed to be some discrepancies with how the work could be completed. Commissioner Hertel expressed concern that,were the Commission to approve the vinyl,and mandate a better product when the vinyl fails,that there wouldn't be compliance in the future. Commissioner Stalheim clarified that he believes that the purpose is to save the structure as a whole,a discussion should be had on what components are most valuable. Commissioner Hertel agreed with Commissioner Stalheim and stated that the insulation and the animals—those should be addressed. Options were discussed for ways that that could be executed. Commissioner Stalheim stated that it again appears beyond repair. Commissioner Annis stated that two sides had already been completed. Commissioner Hertel expressed concern as to whether minimum maintenance was executed. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko expressed that these problems did not just come up immediately,that they were evident from when the structure was purchased in 2012;that"if you postpone making a plan,and suddenly it is an emergency,and it is too expensive to do the right thing"and not follow the Standards. Commissioner Annis expressed that she agreed with Commissioner Stalheim,that financial hardship is a consideration and the Commission should attempt to control what happens next. Commissioner Gelfman expressed that this was not a comparison of apples to apples,and that the estimates are hard to compare. Commissioner Deegan expressed that he agreed,that a lived-in building is better than a degrading building. Commissioner Deegan expressed that he supported this position based upon the distance from the street,the seemingly imperceptible difference in the siding is not perceptible at that distance,the maintenance of the property up until 2012 was spotty at best,and that worse things were installed,that the summation of all these things is not ideal,that wood siding would be preferred,but lived-in,with a family is preferable to the alternative. Commissioner Gelfrnan noted that the structure is rated as Notable,expressed that finding a solution that is like-in-kind is what the Standards and Guidelines require. Commissioner Gelfman expressed dissatisfaction with the estimates and had hoped that the cost would be broken down by the projects. Further,the salvageable estimate discrepancies complicate the discussion. Commissioner Stalheim noted that the Hoover proposal did not include sheathing,which either means it is included,or it is an additional cost. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko exclaimed that in her experience,removing wet insulation from the walls is manageable to do by property owner themselves. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko further stated that she felt that problem areas are usually easily identified,and that the proposals are somewhat of a`blank check'to fix those problems. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko referenced historic preservationist Bob Yapp's position that removing vinyl or aluminum siding typically results in less that 15%material that needs to be replaced. Commissioner Stalheim clarified that half the house has already been resided,and that only half the house still has the original siding. Commissioner Gelfrnan stated that the proposed material to be installed could be installed by the property owner,whereas wood siding may require more of a craftsman to install. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that she had never installed vinyl siding,so she was not aware of how hard it was to install by comparison. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: N/A Commissioner Gelfman asked the applicants to further explain their position: Mr.Modlin stated that they called the contractors on the list provided by HPC Staff and the quotes were received were the only two contractors who responded. They were not happy with the estimates that they received,as they did not quote as how Mr.Modlin had hoped to quote to satisfy the Commission's concerns. The quote in question ended up being for labor only. Commissioner Hertel asked for clarification regarding the quoted cost for"chimney demolition." Mr.Modlin stated that it was added in the quote. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that the Modlins are not changing their application to include chimney demolition. Administrator Feasel clarified that the contractors did not do what the Modlins had wanted them to do. Administrator Feasel further clarified that the contractor list supplied by the HPC Staff is not curated and was inherited. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko expressed concern as to the one contractor's estimate that included siding over the wet detritus and insulation. This would not be ideal. Mr.Modlin stated they requested to get quotes,these two contractors responded,that they provided them. Mr.Modlin stated that installing wood siding can be cantankerous at times,and that"90%of all wood siding warranty issues are derived from improper installation." This quote is from'Buffalo',the manufacturer of the wood siding. Commissioner Annis clarified that that when a warranty issue were to come up,it was not the product,but the way it was installed. Specialist Toering clarified that he believed that this was true for roofs or other construction products;improper installation results in more failures for any product—its typically not the product itself. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that it is not that hard to install wood siding. Commissioner Gelfman asked that,if wood siding were acquired,what the installation costs would be. Mr.Modlin stated that they were instructed to quotes for cost for installing the different materials,and that the supplied quotes are what was provided. Commissioner Deegan asked if other alternative materials were investigated,for example,Hardee Board. Mr.Modlin stated that in conversations with North Coast,the representative did not support installing cement board on the house,allegedly due to the loss of lawsuits. Regarding other wood quotes,he could not find many. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if they had considered doing the house one side at a time. Mr.Modlin expressed that he had considered it,but that it would be a five-year project of work in the summers. Ms.Modlin stated that this option would subject their children to years with whatever material is in the walls. Commissioner Hertel expressed that the Commission fully supports removing the material from the wall cavities in the pursuit of creating a healthy environment for their family. Mr.Modlin explained that removing the cellulose material from the inside,it would remove the lathe and plaster,and that the siding is already in a deteriorated condition,and that removing the siding would be easier. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko agreed that doing it from the outside is easier,and that you would not have to remove all the siding to do it. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the estimate would come to about$22,000(and that includes taking off the 7%tax)and would not include her labor. Mr.Modlin produced the proposed siding and demonstrated how it worked together. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko inquired about the size difference between the proposed siding and the original siding. Mr.Modlin indicated that of the$1 1,000 for the Celect PVC,half of that cost is already installed on the house. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko suggest that a motion regarding the preservation of the architectural details as a separate piece from the replacement of the siding. Commissioner Stalheim asked the applicant about the lifespan of the material in direct sunlight. Mr.Modlin stated that Royal makes a lot of products. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko indicated the average lifespan of vinyl siding is about 25 years. The average lifespan of original wood,if properly maintained,is about 160 years;it cost more upfront,but has a longer lifespan. The vinyl will go into the landfill sooner. Mr.Modlin stated they did not plan on going anywhere any time soon. Ms.Modlin stated they were invested in the property. Commissioner Stalheim asked about how the material is joined together. Mr.Modlin explained that it is connected by PVC glue. Commissioner Gelfman asked for a motion to break the project into two portions. Commissioner Stalheim made a motion to divide COA#2019-1007A-Continued into two components, 1)the treatment and the preservation of the architectural details,2) replacement of the siding. Commissioner Annis seconded the motion. Seven in favor, none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to separate COA#2019-1007A into two components passes. Commissioner Stalheim stated that the treatment of the architectural details should be maintained`in-kind.' Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked to clarify what architectural details would be covered in the motion:does it include corner boards,window sills,trim,fascia_ Mr.Modlin stated that the inside corner boards and the outside corner boards would be of PVC. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if that would impact the fascia,soffit,and sills. Mr.Modlin stated that it would end at the frieze board Commissioner Gelfman stated that the windows were already replaced. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked for staff's sentiment as to how this should be separated. Administrator Feasel stated that separating projects does occur,that the Commission has not typically wanted to see windows wrapped with aluminum or other materials,but the interplay of original wood with the plastic material is unknown. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that it could be determined at staff's discretion after investigation of the cases. That attaching the vinyl material to the wood could cause problems. Mr.Modlin stated that there is transitional board that would come up to the frieze board and stop. Commissioner Hertel stated that,when the Commission is discussing the maintenance of original`architectural details',that the original wood shiplap is an architectural detail. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that this is the classic Historic Preservation problem:that it is expensive to do it`right.' That this is why the Commission is here for. That if the argument becomes,'its too expensive to do it right,'then the Commission might as well go home,because that is one of the reasons why it exists. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if the original boards would be removed,or if the new material would be installed over the old boards. Mr.Modlin stated that they would remove the old material,and that new sheathing would be installed,and fire stop,and vapor barrier. Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that all the architectural details including the trim around the windows,the roof gable,the brackets,are replicated in the original style and material(this does not include the siding). Seconded by Commissioner Ponder. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,section one,regarding"the treatment and preservation of the Architectural details"is passed. Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that the siding to be replaced should be wood in nature,with final approval of the product details remanded to staff.Seconded by Commissioner Downs-Krostenko. Six in favor,one opposed. Vote: 6—1. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A,section two with wood siding,with final product details remanded to staff,is approved. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that the approved motion is a denial of the original application, and that Commissioners should state their reasons for denial. Roll was called. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko(AYE): I vote to deny because,the holy grail of our business is the exterior preservation of these buildings,and changing the material and the dimensions of the material does radically change the appearance of the house, it also involves demolishing the existing wood siding,and once you do something like that to the house,you can pretty much guarantee that it probably will never come back. If the wood stays underneath there, someone may come along and say, 'oh,I'm going to make arrangements to take off the nasty vinyl siding and repair the woodwork and the carpentry and make it beautiful again. Once you remove it,you pretty much put a stake through the heart of the building in terms of its integrity and value in the exterior. Commissioner Annis(AYE): I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the recommendation of the standards. Our job is to uphold the Standards. Commissioner Deegan(NAY): Commissioner Hertel(AYE): I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the standards and guidelines of what would be appropriate for the house of that historic time. Commissioner Gelfman(AYE): I vote to deny,due to the fact that, 1)this farmstead is notable, which is critical in St.Joseph County and the City as well. 2)If we are to keep the integrity of historical preservation that exists for hundreds and hundreds of years,we have to look at the standards and the guidelines that have been set,and we need to follow them as best we can. I understand that this is a difficult situation because of the cost of it,unfortunately one of the things that comes along with a historical home, which I think all of us own, is that—the cost of the renovations of it. One of the things that Dr. [Krostenko-] Downs did recommend that might be helpful to you is to just do it a section at a time,over so many years. I understand that is difficult as well, but if you are doing this yourself,then that lessens the amount,not just for the wood itself,but for the labor and everything else that is involved with it. Commissioner Ponder(AYE): I vote to deny for the reasons already stated based in the guidelines,as well as for the precedence that it sets. If we allow you to do it—and yes,I understand the financial hardship—if someone else comes with a smaller project,then they will use this as leverage to say, 'hey,you let them do it,why can't you let us do it?' Again,we must follow the guidelines that have been laid out. Commissioner Stalheim(AYE): I vote to deny based upon all of the reasons previously stated. Application to install vinyl siding is denied. 2. 619 Cushing #2019-1023A #8142-90 Local Landmark Representation: Ricardo Nevarez, 21913 Mishawaka Avenue,South Bend,IN 46615 STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: November 13,2019 Application Number: 2019-1023A Property Location: 617-619 North Cushing Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Gabled-ell/Stick/ 1892 Property Owner: Dito's Investments,LLC Landmark or District Designation: Local Landmark,Ordinance#8142-90 Rating: Outstanding DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/SITE: Main structure is a two-story irregular plan Gabled-ell house in the stick style on a brick foundation(that was previously covered in stucco). Wood clapboard siding with decorative square panels and jigsaw shingles. Asphalt shingle roof with centrally mounted brick chimney. Gabled dormers with decorated rakeboards,molded wood eaves and rake,and a plain frieze. The front entry porch adds distinctive styling,the side entrance has a unique canopy with fan-decorated semicircular brackets. Windows were originally 1-over-1 double hung with plain wood jambs and sills and decorated wood entablatures;many windows are now vinyl replacements. 617 Cushing stands to the rear of the main house closer to the alley and was possibly originally an outbuilding. It is a one and a half story structure with a brick foundation and a centrally mounted chimney. Originally sided in wood,it is now covered in vinyl. Windows are a mix of original wood one-over-one double hung,casements,and replacement vinyl windows. ALTERATIONS: Both properties have been extensively modified over the course over the last century. Windows have been replaced in both structures(without COA);617 Cushing had vinyl siding installed over the original siding. AA 2019-0517 approved a number of projects on the exterior of both structures which have not been completed(removal and reconstruction of chimneys,foundation work,tree removal,landscaping improvements,and the removal of the exterior stair well). AA 2019- 1023 allowed for the removal and re-roofing of the asphalt shingle roof,as well as the installation of new gutters and downspouts. APPLICATION ITEMS: ` - • . • • " . • .. . ..cancel two entry doors and fix wood siding,paint all exterior siding and trim-casting." DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: 3. Removal of exterior doors,filling in of the former door cavities,and siding over with LP Smart Side PPG Prefinished'*'3/8 x 6 x 16'Knight's Armor Textured Strand Lap Siding. a. The front facade of the structure currently has three entrances: i. An ancillary entrance facing east,TO BE REMOVED ii. A primary entrance on the front porch facing east, iii. A secondary entrance onto the front porch,facing south,TO BE REMOVED Staff believes the LP Smartside is intended to be used just to fill in the removed doors. Staff has not interpreted this application as seeking to re-side the entirety of the structure. Late 19'x'century structures often had multiple front entrances(leading to some being labeled as`coffin doors'or`funeral doors' as they were supposedly installed to allow coffins to be brought into and removed from a house without navigating tight turns or corners). Historic record indicates this structure has long existed as a multi-family house with multiple units,necessitating multiple entrances. This is reflected in the property history and 1932 Assessor Cards. Staff is not immediately against the removal of additional non-essential doors but would prefer they are replaced with new windows. Recent projects reviewed and approved by the Commission include the following examples where doors were removed and replaced with new windows include: 1. COA 2018-0403 for 908 Leland in the Chapin Park Local Historic District, a. An ancillary door opening onto the front porch was removed and replaced with a specially constructed window, 2. COA 2018-1107 for 916 Riverside Drive in the Riverside Drive Local Historic District, a. A secondaryporch entrance was shifted from one wall to another,the former door space was replaced with a new window. SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:Local Landmark"Group B" The Commission has the authority to determine the architectural merits and the extent of any proposed treatment,renovation,or addition to a historic landmark. The commission will require drawings,plans,specifications,and/or samples where appropriate. A. Maintenance The maintenance of any historical structure or site shall in no way involve any direct physical change except for the general cleaning and upkeep of the landmark. The Commission shall encourage the proper maintenance of all structure or sites. B.Treatment Treatment shall be defined as any change of surface materials that will not alter the style or original form. Such improvements include re-roofing,glazing,or landscaping lawns and may involve a change that can potentially enhance or detract from the character of the landmark. A treatment change of any surface whether on the landmark or in its environment may require a Certificate of Appropriateness if it significantly alters the appearance of the landmark. Although these kinds of changes may not require a Building Permit,a Certificate of Appropriateness may be necessary. The commission should review the proposed treatment for character and style consistency with the original surfaces. C.Renovation and Additions Renovation is the modification of a structure,which does not alter the general massing while an addition,is a change in mass. A modification,which involves the removal of a part of the landmark,should be considered under demolition(see demolition). Additions to landmarks should not detract from the original form and unity of the landmark and should not cover singular examples of architectural detail. Additions to landmarks should be added in a manner that does not disrupt the visible unity of overall appearance of the site. The proportions,materials and ratios of the existing structures should be carred through in the additions. Care should be taken not to change or alter the following: 1.Structure—Necessary structural improvements,where safety demands should be accomplished in such a way as to cause minimal visual change to the original style and construction. 2.Material—Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a.wood—all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b.siding materials—the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding.Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. D.Demolition Historic landmarks shall not be demolished. When a landmark poses a threat to the public safety,and demolition is the only alternative,documentation by way of photographs,measured drawings,or other descriptive methods should be made of both the exterior and interior of the landmark. The person or agency responsible for demolition of the landmark shall be responsible for this documentation. E.Moving The moving of landmarks is discouraged,however,moving is preferred to demolition. When moving is necessary,the owner of the landmark must apply to the Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. F.Signs No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super-graphics will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business. G.Building Site and Landscaping(These standards apply to both A and B) 1.Required Major landscaping items,trees,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,green houses,new walls,fountains, fixed garden furniture,trellises,and other similar structures shall be compatible to the historic character of the site and neighborhood and inconspicuous when viewed from a public way. 2.Recommended New site work should be based upon actual knowledge of the past appearance of the property found in photographs, drawings,and newspapers. Plant materials and trees in close proximity to the building that are causing deterioration to the buildings historic fabric should be removed. However,trees and plant materials that must be removed should be immediately replaced by suitable flora. Front yard areas should not be fenced except in cases where historic documentation would indicate such fencing appropriate. Fencing should be in character with the buildings style, materials,and scale. 3.Prohibited No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing major landscaping items,trees,fencing, walkways,outbuildings,and 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. The installation of unsightly devices such as TV reception dishes and solar collectors shall not be permitted in areas where they can be viewed from public thoroughfares. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff supports the removal of the secondary doors. However,staff would prefer: 1. the doors were replaced with appropriately sized windows with matching trim, 2. wood siding(matching the existing)is installed in lieu of LP Smartside. Prepared and recommended by Adam Toering Historic Preservation Specialist Approved by Elicia Feasel Historic Preservation Administrator PETITIONER COMMENTS: Mr.Nevares stated that there was a mistake regarding the proposed siding,and that the proposed siding to be replaced would be wood matching the existing wood in both shape and reveal. Replicating the existing siding would be no problem.The house has five entrance doors—it was a multi-unit house,with two doors in the front,one on the side,one on the back, and one on the back side. COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION: Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that she understood removing the northern extra door but removing the side door where the decorative porch is causes some concern. The bracketed,decorated porch would look strange were you to remove the entrance there,especially if it were a blank wall,but also would look weird if you put in a window. Commissioner Gelfman asked whether the present door was original to the house. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that she didn't think the door was original,but that this was the location of a door to the house originally. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko reiterated that she had concerns about removing the door entirely, or replacing it with a window,as it would look strange. Commissioner Hertel asked for clarification on which doors would be removed. Commissioner Ponder expressed concerns regarding the other administrative approvals that had been approved for the property, specifically that the new property owners have initiated any of those projects yet and looked forward to asking the property owner about that information. Commissioner Annis stated she would ask about clarification as to how the siding would be installed with the trim but stated she would ask the property owner in open discussion. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko clarified that you would remove the frame,and then`feather'the boards in so that they arc different length. Commissioner Stalheim stated that he would only want windows to be installed if there was evidence that a window existed in that space before. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that it depends on the building,and that in examples that she knows of,the blank wall would have looked out of place had a window not been installed. Commissioner Hertel asked staff if there was any evidence of window existing in any of these openings before. Specialist Toering clarified that the 1932 Assessor Card referenced that the property was already subdivided at that time. The Historic Sites and Survey Card indicates in the`history'section that the family that constructed the house had long used it as a multi-family dwelling. The earliest example of the Sanborn fire insurance maps indicate that it is a multiple unit house. Staff believes that the house was originally constructed to be a multi-unit house. Commissioner Gelfman indicated that she would guess that the windows existed on the left side of the porch,but that the right side of the porch was probably not a window. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko indicated that there did not appear to be much objection on the part of the Commission members regarding the removal of the door that is facing to the south on the front porch. Specialist Toering stated that"as early as 1906,Nathaniel O.Troyer,clerk at Studebaker,and his wife are listed living at the address with the Zollers[who built the house]." The history goes on to indicate that Mr.Zoller had served in the Civil War and had been a sailor on a sailing ship. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko clarified that removing the door,the siding should be feathered in,and the side porch poses different questions. Mr.Nevarez stated that the house had multiple units,and the side door was an entrance to provide access via a stairwell to the upstairs unit. He further stated that the area where that stairwell was previously(the interior has been gutted, including removing the stairwell)will be where the kitchen of the house will be constructed,and that having openings on the kitchen walls poses layout problems. Mr.Nevarez stated that he is converting the house into a single-family home. The three different units are being eliminated and the floor plan is being extensively altered. Commissioner Annis stated that you could'fur'the wall on the inside to create a solid surface but keep the exterior door for cosmetic reasons on the outside. Commissioner Gelfman asked Commissioner Annis to clarify why the door should be left. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that the exterior door(and attached porch)are important to the aesthetics of the house. Commissioner Annis stated that it is important to the form of the house and if you take the door out and leave the wall,it would look strange. Mr.Nevarez stated that the porch area was an addition,and he would like to remove it and improve the look of that side of the house. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that she did not feel comfortable making a judgement on the side porch door,as she was lacking information about the back of the house,how many phases or what additions were there,and she could not assess what this porch was doing,if it is original,or what it is doing,unless she visited the property. Mr.Nevarez stated the he believed the door was made to provide an entrance to the upstairs unit. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko asked if the house was built as a single-family home. Specialist Toering stated that the house was at least a duplex when first constructed. Mr.Nevarez reiterated that the house was possibly a triplex,and even a quadplex at some point in time. Commissioner Hertel discussed the rear addition and how it was attached to the structure,and how the construction of that addition may have led to the construction of the other door. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that perhaps there was already an addition,and it was expanded into the present larger addition;evidence of this can be found in that the trim on those additions matches the trim elsewhere on the house. There's a lot going on with the house and she would feel more comfortable deciding having more information. Commissioner Gelfman suggested that the Commission table the door until the next meeting so that Commissioners could come to the property and see,to allow the Commission to make an educated decision. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the Commission could,at this time,review the front entrance door removal projects. Mr.Nevarez mentioned he would also like to remove one of the rear doors. Commissioner Stalheim indicated that the application specifically mentioned removing the front two doors but does not mention the rear doors. Specialist Touring stated he understood that the application was for the removal of two of the front doors on the street facing facade. Mr.Nevarez apologized. Commissioner Gelfman commented on one of the pictures of the structure included in the packet that showed the property a few years ago. Commissioner Hertel asked Mr.Nevarez if they planned to make the house look like it used to look. Mr.Nevarez indicated that the color palette would change,that the primary colors of the house would be green,light blue,and dark blue. Specialist Toering showcased the Sanborn Fire insurance map from 1899 that show the house in its current overall configuration. That if the Sanborn map is to be trusted,then the additions happened within the first four years of the structure's construction. Specialist Toering indicated that he believed that the structure was built as a multi-unit house in the overall configuration you see today. The history of the property indicates that the rear structure—sometimes referenced as an outbuilding—that building's footprint changes a lot. There are two houses on this lot. Mr.Nevarez asked if the rear structure was'historic.' Specialist Toering indicated that,from a legal perspective,both structures on the parcel are protected historic structures. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko indicated that Mr.Nevarez should return with another application to remove the door at the rear of the structure,and that the Commission would probably favorably approve that when it was received for review. Commissioner Hertel recommended that when Mr.Nevarez comes back with his next Certificate of Appropriateness application,that the fee is waived. Commissioner Gelfman agreed. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: Commissioner Hertel clarified that the applicant has changed materials—instead of using the LP Smartside,the applicant is going to use wood siding. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko made a motion on COA#2019-1023A be accepted with the following conditions: 1)that the south facing front façade door be allowed to be removed and filled with wood siding of the same size and reveal as the original siding, and that the wood be feathered in;2)and that the second door of the application be tabled until the next meeting;3)that the application will be waived for the continuation;4)that Commission members shall visit the site,to determine the rear additions. Seconded by Commissioner Ponder. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to continue COA#2019-1023A with conditions is passed,including continued. Commissioner Hertel informed the applicant that should contact Historic Preservation Staff if they had any questions,as the Staff is very helpful and here to help. Mr.Nevarez stated that he recently bought the property,he came to staff immediately,and that he intends to convert it back to a single-family occupancy,and then put it back on the market. Commissioner Downs-Krotstenko stated that it wasn't that long ago that the house was beautiful,and that the work should be manageable to get it back to that condition. Commissioner Gelfman asked about the status of the previously approved Certificates of Appropriateness associated with this address. Specialist Toering indicated that they were issued for the previous property owner. Commissioner Hertel asked if Mr.Nevarez needed to get a new approval as the new property owner. Legal Counsel Kennedy stated that the approved Certificates of Appropriateness'stay with the property.' Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that approvals are only good for a year. Specialist Toering stated that the approvals were issued this summer. Mr.Nevarez stated that he would honor those previous applications and approvals. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the reason for the concern was that Commissioner Ponder was wondering about the priorities for the project. Mr.Nevarez stated that the priority was the roof and was concerned about what was previous approved for that aspect of the structure. Specialist Toering stated that the chimney had major structural issues,that former Inspector Szaday had completed a site visit, that the previous property owner had proposed taking the chimney down and rebuilding it,that the reconstructed chimney would not be a structural chimney,it would not be functional. Mr.Nevarez indicated that he would like to take the chimney down but not rebuild it. Specialist Toering stated that the chimney reconstruction was only approved because of the stated reconstruction. Mr.Nevarez stated that he understood. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stated that he could apply to demolish the chimney in a separate document. Mr.Nevarez stated that he planned to start with the roof. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the chimney has existed and that it should remain,even if it just for looks. Commissioner Gelfman asked when the foundation will be addressed. Mr.Nevarez stated that the plan was to do the roof,siding,and then the foundation. Commissioner Gelfman asked about the main issues of the foundation. Mr.Nevarez stated that the foundation currently has an exterior access,and that the previous owners had requested permission to remove that entrance,and that was administratively approved. The foundation itself is sound. IV. PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR V. REGULAR BUSINESS A. APPROVAL OF MINUTES i. N/A B. STAFF REPORTS i. Administrative Approvals 1. 730 Park Avenue—Hershberger Masonry applied for and received an Administrative Approval for the reconstruction of the masonry foundation of the veranda. Commissioner Hertel left the proceedings at 6:57pm. Commissioner Hertel rejoined the proceedings at 7:00pm C. COMMITTEE REPORTS i. Disposition of Historic Preservation Assets 1. N/A ii. Standards Update 1. Indiana Landmarks is funding of a development of a`model guideline', and HPC is a partner. a. Commissioner Eric Stalheim has been hired to be a consultant on that `model guideline.' This alters the timeline somewhat. b. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko inquired about a committee that would be working on this project. c. Administrator Feasel stated that she would like to have Todd Zeiger to come in and speak to the Commission regarding what the model guideline would be. 2. Two additional grants will be used to present this process to the public a. National Trust for Historic Preservation Grant b. Indiana Humanities—Historic Preservation Education Grant 3. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stressed that Staff are intimately aware of where the issues are within the Standards and Guidelines. She asked for clarification as to what specific categories cause problems that could be updated a. Administrator Feasel stressed that there are nine different Standards;they are similar but have nuances in language. The goal is to consolidate those standards into one Standard,with addenda as necessary(to keep that unique character for specific neighborhoods). b. Lead paint is not covered as extensively in the guidelines. 4. Commissioner Hertel stressed that we could make the guidelines more stringent,and that a guideline change could result in a legal precedence. a. Legal Counsel Kennedy stated that—if there is homeowner input,and the neighborhood charettes—that you are starting with a clean slate. b. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko stressed that previous staff left the guidelines purposefully ambiguous so that projects could be reviewed by staff in Chapin Park,and that has left the door open for bad decision making. It is important to review these changes and the guidelines and ensure that they cannot be used against the tenets of historic preservation. c. Specialist Toering stressed that the nine historic districts have robust standards in comparison to the Group B Standards, which allow for a considerable amount of ambiguity. In some ways this allows for room for the Commission to negotiate and maneuver, and in other ways it allows for the applicant to do things that are very strange. Group B has the widest range and extremes of style that are covered in the least amount of text. If you are going to make the district guidelines tighter,you must have the buy-in from the people from the neighborhoods. 5. Commissioner Hertel asked about the idea that Indiana Landmarks had previously discussed a rating system,and that we do our community a disservice if we only meet the minimum requirement. a. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko discussed the adoption of the Chapin Park district,that the consensus was that you didn't have to change anything as it currently exists,but as soon as you do want to change something,it needs to change for the better. This has led to some people arguing that they want to keep things they way they are. VI. OLD BUSINESS VII. NEW BUSINESS A. ARCHITECTURAL HISTORIAN B. PROGRAMMATIC AGREEMENT Legal Counsel Kennedy explained the circumstances of the Programmatic Agreement between the Historic Preservation Commission and the Department of Community Investment allowing for the execution of certain duties by Historic Preservation Commission staff,specifically Section 106 Review. Staff conducts Section 106 review for projects including HUD grant disbursement; for example,Lead remediation grant projects and Community Development Block Grants(CDBG). The agreement is currently in draft form because there are three Native American Tribes that want to party to it,and they have asked for more time to review the document. The document is still being reviewed by the other parties,and any comments would need to be received on the current draft. The Historic Preservation Commission will empower President Gelfman to sign on behalf of the Commission. Administrator Feasel stated that continuing education regarding Section 106 Review opportunities are available at the 2020 Historic Preservation Conference that will be hosted in South Bend. Commissioner Annis made a motion to authorize Commission President Michele Gelfman to serve as signatory to the Programmatic Agreement. Seconded by Commissioner Hertel. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to authorize Commission President Michele Gelfman as signatory to the Programmatic Agreement passes. VIII. ANNOUNCEMENTS AND MISCELLANEOUS MATTERS A. 821 Ashland in the Chapin Park Local Historic District has suffered a catastrophic fire. Staff is monitoring the situation;no demolition application has been received B. Navarre Cabin—Staff has made contact with The History Museum staff regarding the reported movement of the Navarre Cabin to the museum campus. Staff expects to receive a Certificate of Appropriateness application to move the cabin sometime in the spring in advance of a desired summer move. The Navarre Cabin originally stood on the north bank of the St.Joseph River roughly in the West North Shore Drive neighborhood. It has stood in Leeper Park for over a century. C. New Commissioners: i. Patrick Deegan,a resident of East Wayne Street Local Historic District. Mr. Deegan works for the University of Notre Dame with a background in Art History related to contemporary Asian art. ii. John Tiffany,although not present,works in real estate. D. 1636 Lincoln Way West has a new owner,Jason Miller,who owns a property within the Lincoln Way East Local Historic District. He has applied for and received administrative approvals related to the roof and gutters and is working on an application • regarding masonry repair. It is believed that the structure will be mixed-use. E. Preserving Historic Places—Statewide Preservation Conference i. April 14—17,2020. ii. The conference is not free. iii. Indiana Landmarks in Partnership with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology; Indiana University-South Bend is a sponsor,as well. iv.

REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION AND SITE PLANS The Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County cannot render judgment nor process an Application without specific documentation. Comprehensive documentation protects both the owner of the property submitting the Application as well as providing a complete understanding of the project for the commissioners and staff when rendering a decision. Problems often occur during a project review or during the execution of the project when one or both parties are unclear as to the specifics. Applications will NOT be processed without all required fees and documentation. When an Application has been scheduled for any meeting where a review and decision are to be rendered,the owner and any architect or contractor(s)retained for the project must attend such meetings. Failure by the owner, architect, or contractor to attend such meetings may result in denial of the Application due to insufficient presentation. Documentation shall include: detailed written description of the project including materials to be used,scale, dimen- sions, construction methods, finished, manufacturers' brochures and specifications and photographs of the area (s) which the project will affect. Photographs may be submitted in digital format, or in photographic print. When a project involves blueprints and/or site plans,one(1)set shall be submitted with the Application. Any documentation submitted to this office cannot be returned to the applicant. INSPECTION AUTHORITY All projects will be inspected during and following execution, for compliance with the decision (s) rendered by the Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St.Joseph County. Owner acknowledges that while the Historic Preservation Commission only considers Certificates of Appropriateness for exterior features,under certain circumstances it may be necessary for the Commission Staff to have access to the interior of the building in order to accurately assess the condition of the exterior feature and that the lack of access to the interior may prevent the Commission Staff from making a favorable recommendation. Any work performed on a historic landmark or in an historic district which does not conform to the Certificate of Ap- propriateness certificate, shall be immediately halted by the Historic Preservation Commission and the Building De- partment of South Bend and St.Joseph County. INTERGOVERNMENTAL DISCLOSURE Certificates Of Appropriateness will be filed with the Building Department of South Bend and St.Joseph County when the applicant also is required to obtain a building permit or other such permit issued by that department. (The appli- cant may pick up their Certificate at that location). When no building or other permits are required from the Build- ing Department,the Certificate will be mailed directly to the applicant. TO ENSURE YOUR APPLICATION CAN BE PROCESSED IN A TIMELY MATTER WITHOUT DELAY, PLEASE INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING DOCUMENTATION WHEN APPROPRIATE: Certificate of Appropriateness application ElWritten description of the project(materials to be used,scale,dimensions,construction methods,altera- tions,etc.) U Materials to be used(Supplemented with manufactures' brochures and specifications) Eal Site Plan showing existing buildings&structures and proposed project(for new construction,additions, paths,terraces,patios,fences) ® Photographs Blueprints/Drawings U Application fee - $20.00 Certificate of Appropriateness application Written description of the project(materials to be used, scale, dimensions, construction methods, alterations,etc.) Project involves:removal of decayed existing siding,animal feces, bat habitat exclusion, beehives,moldy materials, waterlogged and damaged material,removal of wet cellulose insulation from within the wall cavity. Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation,new exterior grade sheathing,tyvek house wrap,new flashings,new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods following the manufacturer's written specifications. A wet spring revealed significant water issues in our home. Repairs could not wait because of known health risks associated with fecal matter,moldy materials,and stinging insects. We could not subject our young children to these conditions. We chose a wood simulated siding because of the price difference between wood and Architectural Cellular Composite siding. The difference amounted to approximately$53,000. This would cause a financial hardship on our family. Also, it does not include wood trim material or labor to install. The existing deteriorated siding reveal is 5 %"the wood simulated siding reveal is 7". The distance from the road to the house is 85'. The distance from the road and the difference in the reveal would not significantly change the look and charm of the house. Along with the siding the deteriorated window trim is being repaired or replaced as necessary. In addition it is our intent to repair the cornicing and ginger bread to closely match the original.

Can Celect siding and trim be repainted? Celect siding panels are most easily cut using Yes. We recommend 100% acrylic latex paint. standard wood cutting tools such as a miter saw If you're going to paint the product a darker color, or circular saw for straight cuts and jig saw consult the paint manufacturer for the LRV (Light around obstacles. The best tool for Celect Trim is Reflectance Value). Painting Celect products with paint a power miter saw. darker than 56% on the LRV scale voids the product warranty. Do the cut ends need to be sealed? There are paint manufacturers that sell coatings No, not necessarily. The only reason to coat specifically designed for PVC. These paints are typically them is if the ends are going to be visible. This referred to as "vinyl-safe" paints or "heat reflective" way the finish color will match the adjacent coatings. sides of the part. Where and when can I use caulking? NOTES The use of caulking should be held at a minimum. If it is desired for esthetic reasons, caulking can be used around window and door trim, etc. Never caulk at any expansion gaps such as in trim pockets or at the top of corners. My existing windows have a built In J channel. Do I still need additional trim around the window? Typically yes. Celect horizontal profiles require 1/z"to 1" expansion gaps along the jams of windows and most built in channels are only 3/4" deep. This means that the end of the panel could contract to the point that it would be visible outside the pocket of the channel. The same holds true for Celect Board and Batten panels only not at the jambs but above and below windows for the same reason. Unless the built in trim is at least 1" in depth, additional trim should be installed. 60 61 CONTRACTOR CHECK LISTS WALL PREPARATION CHECK LIST ❑ Solid,flat, nailable surface (OBS, Plywood, fanfold over solid existing siding) ❑ Weather protective barrier(wrap, etc.) O Code compliant flashings SUGGESTED TOOL&SUPPLIES CHECK LIST ❑ Miter saw (60-80 tooth blade) with stand or table to support material.

I've given considerable thought to the challenges brought by the historic nature of your house at the above mentioned address. It is not my recommendation that original siding be removed if at all possible. Any deteriorated siding should be replaced by sheeting that represents modern standards,but boards of sound integrity should be left in place and sided over with house wrap&vinyl to match. There is + probably over 75%of siding that is good to stay. Also, I believe that it is disadvantageous to open up walls at top or bottom in order to remove any ; 1 existing insulation. This idea is only going to compound the project and not be cost effective. 1l, Please let me know if there is anything I can do. 1, Sincerely: 13/4 1t Scott Richard Mignery r miGNERY& soN y` B.._ ' ' ,.J. _ !.. ._ L Residential Contracting P.O.plitto,-,,.., aux 414 New Buffalo, Mt 44117 (219) 861-9977 Job Number: rilil*, , d Client: Mr.& Ms Ben Modlim_ Start Date: _ TBD____ Address:60649 Hickory Rd _ Duration:__ 5 Weeks._ South Bend, IN End Date:_ TBD Phone: 574-340-5674 -- estimates for: — We hereby submit specifications and LABOR ONLY 1000• Vinyl Siding Application: 2,054 fit x$3.52/ft2 = $7,230.00 ''.,,..,,,,.::,.... : Box out Rebuild: = $3.47 f32 x 336 ft2= 1,166,00 ,10 (using prefinished E Allen Cedar) Chimney Demolition & Resheathing(includes dumpster)= 859.00 ' ..,,. • Tyvek over all: $0.35/ft2 x 2,438 ft2 853.00 .. • Travel Expense + 375.0Q ., 014 ' Subtotal $10,483.00 Any existing Siding, Fascia, or Sophit R&R will be conducted on a T& M basis or included under separate bid.

Installation of new fiberglass batt insulation, new exterior grade sheathing, Tyvek house wrap, new flashings, new Celect Cellular Composite PVC Wood simulated siding and architectural trim material. Construction methods to follow the manufacturer's written specifications. Please see supporting documentation." In making its determination,the Historic Preservation Commission considered the appropriateness of the proposed construction, reconstruction,or alteration to the preservation of the historic landmark, specifically, and/or the Historic Preservation District, generally;the detriment to the public welfare if the proposed construction, reconstruction, or alteration were permitted even though it is not deemed appropriate; and the potential hardship that the denial of a certificate of appropriateness would cause the applicant. Fallowing is the record from the meeting concerning your project stating why your application was denied Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that all the architectural details including the trim around the windows,the roof gable,the brackets, are replicated in the original style and material(this does not include the siding). Seconded by Commissioner Ponder. Seven in favor,none opposed. Vote: 7—0. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued, section one, regarding"the treatment and preservation of the Architectural details" is passed. Commissioner Hertel made a motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,that the siding to be replaced should be wood in nature,with final approval of the product details remanded to staff.

Vote:6—1. Motion to approve COA#2019-1007A-Continued,section two with wood siding,with final product details remanded to staff,is approved. Commissioner Gelfman stated that the vinyl siding has been denied. Legal Counsel Kennedy clarified that the approved motion is a denial of the original application,and that Commissioners should state their reasons for denial. Roll was called. Commissioner Downs-Krostenko(AYE): I vote to deny because,the holy grail of our business is the exterior preservation of these buildings, and changing the material and the dimensions of the material does radically change the appearance of the house,it also involves demolishing the existing wood siding,and once you do something like that to the house,you can pretty much guarantee that it probably will never come back. If the wood stays underneath there,someone may come along and say, 'oh,I'm going to make arrangements to take off the nasty vinyl siding and repair the woodwork and the carpentry and make it beautiful again.' Once you remove it,you pretty much put a stake through the heart of the building in terms of its integrity and value in the exterior. Commissioner Annis(AYE):I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the recommendation of the standards. Our job is to uphold the Standards. Commissioner Deegan(NAY): Commissioner Hertel(AYE):I vote to deny,as the product is outside of the standards and guidelines of what would be appropriate for the house of that historic time. Commissioner Gelfman(AYE):I vote to deny,due to the fact that, 1)this farmstead is notable,which is critical in St.Joseph County and the City as well. 2)If we are to keep the integrity of historical preservation that exists for hundreds and hundreds of years,we have to look at the standards and the guidelines that have been set,and we need to follow them as best we can. I understand that this is a difficult situation because of the cost of it,unfortunately one of the things that comes along with a historical home,which I think all of us own,is that—the cost of the renovations of it. One of the things that Dr. [Krostenko-]Downs did recommend that might be helpful to you is to just do it a section at a time,over so many years. I understand that is difficult as well,but if you are doing this yourself,then that lessens the amount,not just for the wood itself,but for the labor and everything else that is involved with it. Commissioner Ponder(AYE):I vote to deny for the reasons already stated based in the guidelines,as well as for the precedence that it sets. If we allow you to do it—and yes,I understand the financial hardship—if someone else comes with a smaller project,then they will use this as leverage to say, 'hey,you let them do it,why can't you let us do it?' Again,we must follow the guidelines that have been laid out. Commissioner Stalheim(AYE): I vote to deny based upon all of the reasons previously stated. Application to install vinyl siding is denied. Page 12 CITY OF SOUTH BEND HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION The Commission acknowledged the deteriorated condition of the existing siding and wall cavities by giving approval for new wood siding to be installed. Staff is available to work with you on the details and issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness should you wish to install wood siding. Pursuant to South Bend Municipal Code Section 21-13-02(e)(5)(B),an applicant may appeal a denial of a Certificate of Appropriateness by the Historic Preservation Commission to the Common Council,which shall make a final determination of the application.

JOSEPH COUNTY, ) DAWN M.JONES Appellee. ) CITY CLERK, SOUTH BEND, IN HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION OF SOUTH BEND AND ST.JOSEPH COUNTY'S EVIDENTIARY AND ADMINISTRATIVE RECORD AND POSITION STATEMENT I. Introduction The Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County(the "HPC") is the body charged with enforcing the Municipal Code of the City of South Bend, Indiana (the "Code"), as it applies to historic preservation within city limits. As such, owners of homes in historic districts or of structures designated as historic landmarks who wish to modify the exterior of those structures must apply for a Certificate of Appropriateness ("COA") from the HPC regarding those modifications prior to commencing work on such modifications. The City of South Bend, Indiana (the "City") maintains a website (httas://southbendin.gov/department/community-investment/historic-preservation-commission/) at which property owners may find contact information for historic preservation staff("Staff'),HPC's meeting dates, applications for Certificates of Appropriateness, maps of historic properties, standards and guidelines, and other useful information. If structure owners disagree with the HPC's decisions related to their applications for Certificates of Appropriateness,those owners may 1 appeal the HPC's decision to the Common Council of the City of South Bend, Indiana (the "Common Council"),pursuant to the Code. The Petitioners are asking the Common Council to review and overturn a decision of the HPC, which was made within the bounds and after serious consideration of the ordinances promulgated by the Common Council, in short because the Petitioners intentionally disregarded those ordinances. The Petitioners self-determined that they were not subject to the laws of the City and in so doing expended thousands of dollars on siding, creating their own financial burden and exacerbating a long-known health risk within their home. II. Standard of Review The Common Council should not hear an appellant's application for a COA de novo. Rather, in accordance with Section 6 of the "Procedures Governing Appeals of Historic Preservation Commission to the Common Council" issued by the Office of the City Clerk, the Common Council shall determine whether the HPC's action was: a.Arbitrary,capricious,an abuse of discretion,or otherwise not in accordance with applicable law; b. Contrary to constitutional right,power,privilege, or immunity; c. In excess of statutory jurisdiction, authority, limitations, or statutory right; d. Without observance of procedures required by applicable law and ordinance; or e. Unsupported by substantial evidence. Each member of the Common Council shall have the opportunity to comment before a motion of disposition on the appeal is accepted by the Chairperson and a roll call vote is taken. 2 III. Issues The Petitioners assert two issues as the basis of their appeal in both their Notice of Appeal, as well as in their Evidentiary and Administrative Record and Position Statement: A. The HPC did not adequately consider the Petitioners' health and safety concerns when determining whether to approve or deny COA#2019-1007A; and B. The HPC did not adequately consider the financial hardship that a denial of COA #2019-1007A would cause the Petitioners. IV. Facts A. The Establishment and Mission of the Historic Preservation Commission The HPC is a joint commission between the City and St. Joseph County, Indiana (the "County")established by the City's Ordinance No. 5565-73,adopted on September 10, 1973, and the County's Ordinance No. 154-73,adopted on May 14, 1973,as an overlay to the units'respective zoning ordinances. Day-to-day management of historic preservation matters, including the oversight of two (2) full-time and one(1)part-time historic preservation staff members ("Staff'), was transferred from the County to the City pursuant to an Interlocal Agreement between the City and the County,dated December 12,2017. The Interlocal Agreement sets forth the mission of the HPC as agreed by both the City and the County as "to identify architecturally or historically significant buildings, structures, sites, and objects in the City and the County and to promote the protection and preservation of the same in a manner that enhances both human and economic welfare and that accommodates development and redevelopment in the City and the County." This mission is also set forth in the HPC's Bylaws. 3 B. The Membership in the HPC The guidelines for membership in the HPC are set forth in the Code at Section 21-13.01. The HPC's nine (9) members are unpaid volunteers appointed by the Mayor of the City (2), the Common Council (2), the County Council (2), and the County Board of Commissioners (2). The ninth(9th)member is an architectural historian appointed by the eight(8) members. Pursuant to Section 21-13.01(b), the members "shall be interested and knowledgeable about historic preservation in the local area." C. Responsibilities of the HPC According to the Code in effect at the time of the Petitioners' application for a Certificate of Appropriateness', Section 21-13.02(d), the HPC identifies and advises the Common Council regarding the establishment of Historic Preservation Districts and the designation of historic landmarks "on the basis of historical and cultural significance, educational value and suitability for preservation." With regard to historic landmarks, Chapter 21, Article 13, Section 21- 13.02(e)(1)of the Code requires the HPC to "issue a certificate of appropriateness before any one of the following actions is taken: the construction,reconstruction,alteration,demolition or moving of any exterior feature of any building, structure, or use." Further, per Chapter 21, Article 13, Section 21-13.02(e)(3), an application for a building permit is deemed an application for a certificate of appropriateness. Section 21-13.02(f) of the Code also requires the HPC to establish "reasonable and just standards for the preservation of historic landmarks and Historic Preservation Districts, including architectural treatment, site development requirements, and provisions concerning construction, 1 Ordinance No. 10689-19,approved by the Common Council of the City of South Bend, Indiana on November 12, 2019 and not yet codified,pertaining to zoning matters, renumbers Article 13 as Section 21-12.04,but does not change it in substance. Further,Ordinance No.10689-19 does not act as a waiver of any right of the City of South Bend,Indiana with regard to the prior ordinance,including enforcement rights. 4 reconstruction, alteration, demolition or removal of any building or structure, or parts thereof." This is limited to exterior features only and are set forth in the HPC's Standards and Guidelines, which are published on the City's HPC website.2 Further, per Section 21-13.O2(e)(7), the HPC may petition the Building Commissioner and the Department of Code Enforcement to cause the maintenance and/or repair of any historic landmark, and per Section 21-13.O2(i) the HPC shall "advise and assist owners of historic landmarks in the preservation of those landmarks." Section 21-13.02(k) of the Code states that the enforcement of Article 13 is provided in Chapter 21, Article 10. Article 10, Section 21-10 does not provide the HPC with enforcement authority; rather, that authority is vested in the Building Department of the City of South Bend, the Department of Code Enforcement of the City of South Bend, and the Area Plan Commission of St. Joseph County.3 Further, Chapter 21, Article 13, Section 21-13.03 addresses annexed landmarks. An historic landmark designated by the HPC in the County that is subsequently annexed into the City becomes an historic landmark of the City upon annexation and subject to regulation by the City. Upon annexation,the HPC must notify the owner in writing of the City's landmark designation. D. Building Department's Role The City's Building Department enforces violations of the HPC ordinance. Additionally, per Code Section 21-13.O2(e)(3),an application for a building permit is deemed an application for a certificate of appropriateness. Building permits are required pursuant to Sections 6-4 (a) and 6.4(e)(2) of the Code. Section 6-4(a) specifically states that "No person shall build or construct 2 For example,the Group B Standards are located here: https://southbendin.gov/wp- content/uploads/2018/07/Standards Local-Landmarks.pdf 'Ordinance 10689-19 changes the enforcement responsibility to the Building Department,allowing the Department of Code Enforcement and the Department of Community Investment to initiate enforcement. Staff are a part of the Department of Community Investment. 5 any new building or structure, or alter, repair, remodel, demolish, or move an existing structure, or install a sign, billboard, fence, in-ground pburningpool, or wood stove within the City without obtaining, in advance, a permit from the Department." Section 6.4(e)(2) sets forth the fees for permits issued for alterations, repairs, or remodeling of existing structures over five hundred dollars ($500.00).4 E. 60649 Hickory Road,South Bend,Indiana According to the HPC property and field survey cards for the Gerry Battles Farm, Gerry Battles built a farmhouse at the site in 1869. A true and accurate copy of the property cards for the Gerry Battles Farm are attached hereto as "Exhibit A". The HPC performed a survey of the Gerry Battles farm on July 18, 1975, rating the style, details, site and outbuildings as "significant or superior" and the integrity and condition as above average. Id. In August of 1978, the then- owners of the eighty (80) acre Gerry Battles Farm requested that the Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County make it an historic landmark classified under Group B standards. A true and accurate copy of the property owner's request is attached hereto as "Exhibit B." On October 10, 1978 the St. Joseph County Council passed Ordinance No. 127-78, granting the Gerry Battles farm landmark status. The home is described in the HPC's file as a gabled-ell stick-style structure in the Gothic Vernacular with wood shiplap siding and many architectural details,which garnered the structure a "Notablei5 rating. See Exhibit A. On June 26, 1989,upon the consideration of a voluntary petition for annexation, the Common Council passed Ordinance No. 7991-89,which annexed 107.82 acres of property into the City,including the Gerry 'This section of the City's ordinance was modified pursuant to Ordinance No.10662-19,which was passed on August 26,2019 by the Common Council. The updated ordinance did not change the requirement for obtaining a building permit in advance of work being performed. 5 The four rating categories HPC uses are Outstanding,Notable,Contributing,and Non-Contributing. A structure may also be unrated. 6 Battles Farm. Upon annexation,pursuant to Section 21-13.03 of the Code,the Gerry Battles Farm became regulated by the City's historic preservation and other ordinances. At some point after 1978, the eighty (80) acre parcel was subdivided into three (3) parcels, all of which retain the historic landmark designation. The parcel containing the Gerry Battles farmhouse contains approximately 3.54 acres and, according to the assessor's property record card, was acquired by the Petitioners on November 22, 2013, although an internal HPC e-mail suggests that the Petitioners acquired the property on or about April 25, 2012. A true and accurate copy of the assessor's property record card is attached hereto as "Exhibit C" and a true and accurate copy of the HPC internal e-mail, dated June 15, 2012, is attached hereto as "Exhibit D." F. Property Condition After its designation as a local historic landmark in 1978, the Gerry Battles farmhouse fell into disrepair. A note in the HPC file from 1986 (attached hereto as "Exhibit E") indicates that Staff received a complaint regarding the"very poor condition" of both the interior and the exterior of the house; Staff investigated the complaint and found that the house was in "fair to good condition" and that the exterior siding "needs scraping and painting," damage which the then- homeowner claimed occurred after insulation was blown in. Staff stated that there were"no great problems" and that no action was warranted at that time.Id. In a letter dated August 30,2005(attached hereto as"Exhibit F"),Staff communicated with a new owner of the home,providing information and inviting the homeowner to contact Staff for assistance. Between 2009 and 2011, the home was for sale and Staff fielded numerous inquiries from parties interested in purchasing the property,most requesting information in the HPC files or otherwise seeking advice regarding renovations to the property. Additionally,Staff communicated with the bank owner of the property regarding the installation of a new roof in 2011,and Staff took 7 photos of the condition of the exterior of the Gerry Battles farmhouse at that time, including portions of rotting or missing siding. True and accurate copies of the photos, correspondence related to and application for COA No. 2011-0310 are attached collectively as "Exhibit G." On September 15, 2011, Staff fielded an e-mail from a person interested in purchasing the home, to which Staff replied that "The house still requires extensive work on both interior and exterior. There were reports to this Office and the Health Department of a bat infestation in the attic." A true and accurate copy of the e-mail from September 15,2011 is attached hereto as "Exhibit H." G. Application for COA According to its Staff Report dated October 8, 2019, which has previously been supplied as requested by Common Council6 as Item (b) thereof, Staff was performing a routine survey of the HPC's designated historic landmarks on August 27,2019 and discovered that the siding of the historic home of the Gerry Battles farmhouse was being replaced without a building permit or COA,as required by the Code. Staff notified the City's Building Department,which posted a cease and desist"red tag" on the gate of the property on or about August 30,2019 and issued a violation letter on or about September 18, 2019. A true and accurate copy of the photograph taken of the placement of the red tag by the Building Department is attached hereto as "Exhibit I." The Petitioners cited what is known as "the Log Cabin Rule" to the Building Department in order to justify their avoidance of compliance with the City's ordinances. The Log Cabin Rule is contained in Indiana Code Section 36-7-8-3, which governs the establishment of building, heating, ventilating, electrical,plumbing and sanitation standards and ordinances. Subsection(d) of which states "An ordinance adopted under this section does not apply to private homes that are 6 Where documents have previously been supplied to Common Council on February 17,2020 and constituting the record,and which are comparatively lengthy,the HPC prefers to reference them only without duplicating the attachment in an effort to save the City's(and taxpayers')resources. 8 built by individuals and used for their own occupancy. However, onsite sewage systems of a private home described in this subsection must comply with state laws and rules." The Petitioners were advised by the Building Department that their home was located within the City limits and the Log Cabin Rule does not apply. The Petitioners then contacted Staff, who consulted and met with them extensively regarding their application for a COA,which was filed on October 7,2019. The affidavit of Elicia Feasel, Historic Preservation Administrator, is attached hereto as "Exhibit J." The Petition was heard bythe HPC as reflected in the meetingminutes from the October 21, 2019 HPC meeting, which minutes have been previously been supplied at the request of Common Council as Item(d), and the HPC continued the hearing to allow the Petitioners to gather additional information pertaining to the potential restoration of the existing siding. The petition was again heard by the HPC at its November 18, 2019 meeting, the minutes of which have previously been supplied at the request of Common Council as Item (h), at which time the HPC partially denied the issuance of a COA for the installation of PVC wood-simulated siding and instead authorized the installation of wood siding.A letter confirming the denial,dated December 2,2019,was sent to the Petitioners (see Item(i)),who subsequently filed a notice to appeal the HPC's partial denial of their application for a COA with the Office of the City Clerk on January 7,2020. V. Argument A. The HPC fairly considered the Petitioners'application for COA #2019-1007A, and weighed the entirety of the situation, the existing Standards and Guidelines, and the Code. The HPC complied with all applicable laws, ordinances, and existing standards and guidelines when it partially denied the Petitioners' application for COA#2019-1007A. It did not act in an arbitrary or capricious manner,nor did it abuse its discretion. The HPC strictly observed 9 the procedures required by the applicable ordinances and considered the evidence in full before denying in part COA#2019-1007A. The Gerry Battles farmhouse is governed by the Group B Standards and Guidelines,which are set forth conveniently in the Staff Report related to COA#2019-1007A,as well as on the City's website, and in the minutes of the proceedings. Those standards state, with regard to changes in Material: 2. Material -- Additions and improvements involving any new material in the landmark should be of the same material as the original. It should be the same size and texture. An alternative material may be allowed if it duplicates the original. a. wood--all wood trim should conform with existing trim in shape and size. b. siding materials -- the Commission discourages the covering or alteration of original materials with additional siding. Structures already sided with incompatible materials should be returned to a siding similar to the original when renovation is considered. Additionally, Article 13, Section 21-13.02(f) of the Code authorizes the HPC to consider the architectural aspects of the structure when making its determination regarding a COA. To ensure fairness in the HPC deliberations,Article 13, Section 21-13.02(e)(5)(B) states that,when denying an application, the HPC must consider the following: i. Appropriateness of the proposed construction, reconstruction, alteration, demolition or moving to the preservation of the historic landmark,specifically,and/or the Historic Preservation District,generally; ii. The detriment to the public welfare if the proposed construction,reconstruction, alteration,demolition or moving is permitted even though it is not deemed appropriate;and iii. The potential hardship that the denial of a certificate of appropriateness would cause the applicant. The HPC in its minutes from October 21, 2019 (previously supplied as Item (d)) and November 18, 2019 (previously supplied as Item (h)) in the Commissioner Discussion section weigh the health and financial concerns of the Petitioners. i. The HPC considered the health concerns of the Petitioners when considering COA #2019-1007A 10 The minutes of the HPC meetings clearly indicate that the HPC was mindful of the health concerns of the Petitioners. In fact, the individual Commissioners of the HPC stated that they supported removing the tainted insulation. In the November 18, 2019 meeting minutes, "Commissioner Hertel expressed that the Commission fully supports removing the material from the wall cavities in the pursuit of creating a healthy environment for their family." Previously Commissioner Hertel stated in the October 21,2019 meeting minutes,that if the application were not retroactive, "the 'things underneath', we would not know. In those other projects, as those things are revealed, they would be addressed. So the bees, the cellulose insulation would be addressed as it is found to make the home habitable." Commissioner Stalheim agreed with Commissioner Hertel and"stated that the Commission would support that action[of removing the health hazards]." Id. When asked by the Petitioner what they should do regarding the health concerns related to the condition of the house, "Commissioner Hertel stated that they should get with their contractor immediately,but that these conditions don't appear to be new problems." Id. In fact, the house had a known bat infestation dating back at least to 2011, prior to the Petitioners'acquisition of the home, so the Petitioners knew or should have known that there was a potentially hazardous situation in the home. See Exhibit H. Further, the Petitioners in their Evidentiary and Administrative Record and Position Statement admit that the home "eventually came to sit vacant for many years as a foreclosure and the state of the home grew quite dire. Vandals had done damage to the home. Years of vacancy and deferred maintenance had taken a toll on the exterior." Seep. 1, Section II. Also in their statement,the Petitioners quote a 2009 staff memo indicated in the Staff Report for the Petitioners' COA#2019-1007A from October 8, 2019 (previously submitted Item (b)): "Prior to the current owners, the property had a long history of deferred maintenance and vacancy, including a 2009 staff memo in the file noting the siding as 11 'rotting.' Id. at p. 2. If the siding was noted as rotting in 2009,it would follow that the Petitioners knew or should have known that the siding was in need of repair and that animals could enter or may have already been inside the home, leaving behind fecal material and other unhealthy debris, prior to the summer of 2019. As recognition of the health concerns, the partial denial of the Petitioners' COA #2019- 1007A was actually couched as an approval. The HPC approved the removal of the siding in order to address the health concerns found in the insulation. However,the HPC rejected the application of polyvinyl chloride siding and recommended that a wood siding be used. ii. The HPC considered the financial burden to the Petitioners when considering COA #2019-1007A The minutes of the HPC meetings indicate that the Commissioners extensively discussed the financial implications of the different types of siding that may be used by the Petitioners, including the polyvinyl chloride siding indicated in the application for COA #2019-1007A. In fact, the October 21, 2019 hearing of the application was continued to allow the Petitioners to investigate alternate siding opportunities, including a determination of how much of the existing siding is salvageable,in order to avoid a denial of their application by the HPC. At the November 18,2019 meeting,the Petitioners presented additional quotes for siding,which the Commissioners discussed in light of the claim of financial burden by the Petitioners. Commissioner Stalheim suggested That the Commission should consider allowing the replacement,but consider approval and focus more on retaining the bigger details that you see from the street . . . and forgo the cove detail of the shiplap for replacement siding, even though it is retroactive, with the stipulation in that the approval so it doesn't become a precedent. See Item (h). Commissioner Annis observed that "two sides have already been completed." Id. Commissioner Hertel expressed concern that if vinyl were allowed to be placed on the home, the home will always be covered in vinyl, never to return to a wood-sided structure, and both 12 Commissioner Hertel and Commissioner Downs-Krostenko argued that the exterior of the home had not been maintained in the seven(7)year ownership by the Petitioners in a way that may have avoided the complete replacement of the siding. Id. In the end,the Petitioner stated that "of the$11,000 for the Celect PVC, half of that cost is already installed on the house." See Item (h). The Petitioners already spent$11,000 on the siding, so of course that is the siding that they wish to install. Had the Petitioners applied for a building permit, as required by the Code in Section 6-4(a), they would have been deemed to have been concurrently applying for a COA pursuant to Section 21-13.03(e)(3). Had they applied proactively for a building permit and COA,they would not have expended the funds for the polyvinyl chloride siding. The quotes that the Petitioners provided indicated that there were vinyl products that were significantly less costly than wood. See Item (b). There are vinyl products that replicate a shiplap pattern that may have been a compromise, for at least the architectural detail would have been maintained. Instead,the siding purchased by the Petitioners does not replicate the shiplap pattern. See illustrative photos attached hereto as "Exhibit K." Petitioners claim repeatedly in their statement that "nothing was done by the HPC to attempt to care for the house's siding" and "the HPC made no contact and no attempt to assist or advise Ben and Carrie as work continued on the house." Staff surveys historic homes from time to time,but they rely on the owners of historic landmarks to reach out to them for assistance. The HPC's role is to advise the Common Council regarding the identification and designation of historic landmarks and to protect those landmarks against changes to their exteriors through the COA process and by petitioning to the Building Commissioner or the Department of Code Enforcement for assistance. The HPC does not have financial resources at its command, despite Petitioners' comment in the introduction to their statement. Staff petitioned the Building 13 Commissioner to red tag the destruction of the architectural components of Petitioner's home, as required by the Code,and the HPC heard the Petitioners'arguments as they pertained to health and financial concerns. Ultimately, six (6) of the seven (7) Commissioners present at the meeting voted to deny the Petitioners' application. The HPC determined that protecting the architectural integrity of the home outweighed the Petitioner's self-created emergency due to lack of maintenance and the expenditure of funds prior to obtaining a building permit. See Items (h) and (i). B. The Common Council should uphold the HPC's decision The HPC considered the entirety of the situation when evaluating the Petitioners' application for a COA #2019-1007A. The Commissioners engaged in an extensive discussion pertaining to the health concerns at the property, as well as the financial burden a denial of the application would cause to the Petitioners. They weighed these concerns against the Common Council's explicit instructions in the Code to protect the integrity of historic landmarks. The Gerry Battles farmhouse in which the Petitioners reside faced some tough times prior to its purchase by the Petitioners, and Staff was elated when they learned that a person interested in saving the property acquired it. Unfortunately, the Petitioners were unable to maintain the exterior of the structure and were unwilling to seek assistance from Staff in determining how to address what the Petitioners allege had become an emergency situation at the home. Instead, they sought to circumvent the rules set forth by the Common Council and which the Common Council enlists the various departments of the City to enforce. Commissioner Gelfman,who is also the HPC's president, stated in her denial the balanced approach the HPC took: Commissioner Gelfman(AYE): I vote to deny, due to the fact that, 1)this farmstead is notable,which is critical in St. Joseph County and the City as well. 2) If we are to keep the integrity of historical preservation that exists for hundreds and hundreds of years,we 14 have to look at the standards and the guidelines that have been set,and we need to follow them as best we can. I understand that this is a difficult situation because of the cost of it, unfortunately one of the things that comes along with a historical home,which I think all of us own, is that-- the cost of renovations of it. One of the things that Dr. [Krostenko- ]Downs did recommend that might be helpful to you is to just do it a section at a time,over so many years. I understand that is difficult as well,but if you are doing it yourself,then that lessens the amount of it,not just for the wood itself,but for the labor and everything else that is involved with it. Likewise, Commissioner Ponder indicated the position that the HPC must consider in her denial of the Petitioners'application: Commissioner Ponder(AYE): I vote to deny for the reasons already stated based in the guidelines,as well as for the precedence that it sets. If we allow you to do it--and yes,I understand the financial hardship--if someone else comes with a smaller project,then they will use this as leverage to say,'hey,you let them do it,why can't you let us do it?' Again, we must follow the guidelines that have been laid out. This appeal is before the Common Council not to determine whether the Petitioners' application for a COA should be approved; rather, the Common Council is to determine whether the HPC acted in a manner that was arbitrary or capricious, an abuse of its discretion, outside of the procedures required by applicable ordinances,or that failed to consider the entirety of the evidence with regard to the Petitioners'application. Because the HPC did not act in an arbitrary or capricious manner, abuse its discretion, ignore the procedures required by the applicable ordinances, or fail to consider the evidence in full before making a determination to deny COA #2019-1007A, the Common Council should affirm the HPC's denial of COA #2019-1007A for the application of Celect PVC siding onto the Gerry Battles farmhouse. VI. Conclusion The HPC has acted in accordance with all applicable laws and ordinances and has not abused its discretion. Further, it has made a determination that is supported by the evidence. Therefore,the Common Council should deny the Petitioners'appeal and affirm the HPC's decision. Denial of the appeal would allow the HPC and Staff to work further with the Petitioners' to maintain the historical and architectural integrity of the Gerry Battles farmhouse. 15 Respectfully Submitted, /s/Sandra L.

The Gerry Battles Farm at 60649 Hickory has been purchased by Ben Modlin. He came in this morning to explain the scope of work that he is planning on performing to bring the house up to standards. All the exterior work will be routine maintenance and repair. He's a Purdue grad and is doing most of the work himself. This house has been vacant for many years and the subject of many inquiries to this Office. But Ben is now the owner as of April 25 and it looks like the place is in very good hands.

The roof they think is a wood shake but the 1975 Survey Card says composite. From what I have been told, the roof has tarps all over it; so a repair job is most likely completely out of the question and it will need to be a complete tear off and re-roof with asphalt shingles to resemble what is currently on the roof. You will probably be asked a lot more questions about the general state of things with this property. so, take the Local Landmark Guidelines and a copy of the Meetings COA deadlines(attached) I have put the file on Elicia's desk. Contact information: Alan's cell: 574 806 3853 Shilla(pronounced Sheila) is at 574-772 4943 or 574 772 1640. Keep me posted on this and your visit with the folks at Central Apartments.

Gerry Battles bought the SE 1/4 of Section 32 from John Price in 1862. The house was built in 1869 by Gerry Battles. It is currently classified as a Gabled-ell/stick style in architectural style. It was classified as Gothic Vernacular in the 1975 survey card. After the house was built Gerry Battles divided the quarter section of the land and sold the North half to his son, Delbert, and the South half to his son Temple. 1942, after the death of Delbert Battles his widow,Anna and the other children sold their share to Homer Battles. Homer Battles was a veterinarian and farmer. He never married and after his death in 1973 the farm was sold to Kenneth Sailor. By 1986 the house was noted to be in very poor condition. In 1988 a new roof was applied for with a Certificate of Appropriateness issued to Relative Real Estate Management, Inc. It is unclear if this work was actually done. Another re-roof was applied for and completed in the Spring, 2011 for CitiBank by C&C Services of Knox, Indiana. The house still requires extensive work on both interior and exterior. There were reports to this Office and the Health Department of a bat infestation in the attic. Please let me know if you need any further information. Catherine D. Hostetler, Director, Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St.Joseph County, Indiana 574 235 9798 >>> Mike Schmuhl <mikeschmuhl@gmail.com> 9/15/2011 8:47 AM >>> Hello, I wanted to see if you had any information on the property at 60649 Hickory Rd. 46614 on the south side of South Bend. I might be interested in purchasing the property and I believe the farmhouse is a historical structure. Any information you can provide, I would appreciate.

I am employed by the City of South Bend, Indiana(the"City")as the Historic Preservation Administrator in the Department of Community Investment. 2. Ben and Carrie Modlin are known to me as the owners of an historic landmark situated at 60649 Hickory Road, South Bend, Indiana. 3. On Tuesday, September 3, 2019 at 10:40 a.m., the Department of Historic Preservation received an e-mail from coachmodlin@gmail.com, which is the address of Ben Modlin, seeking assistance with regard to the "red tag on my back door." 4. I responded to Mr.Modlin on Wednesday,September 4,2019 at 1:17 p.m.with information about how to file an application for a Certificate of Appropriateness. 5. Mr. Modlin again sent an e-mail to me from the coachmodlin@gmail.com address on Wednesday, September 4,2019 at 2:14 p.m.requesting assistance regarding a"red tag on my back door" and I responded at 2:32 p.m.that same day. EXHIBIT 1 6. I forwarded my response from Wednesday, September 4,2019 at 1:17 p.m.to Mr. Modlin at his work e-mail address at modlinb@mishawaka.kl2.in.us on Thursday, September 5, 2019 at 1:55 p.m., at Mr. Modlin's request, after he claimed not to have received it at coachmodlin@gmail.com. A true and accurate copy of that e-mail exchange is attached hereto as Exhibits A and B. 7. I spoke with Mr. Modlin by telephone on several occasions, and, in one instance, felt uncomfortable with the manner in which I was addressed by Mr. Modlin as he vented his frustration at the Certificate of Appropriateness application process at me. 8. I agreed to meet in person with both Mr. and Mrs. Modlin, provided that additional staff were present, including legal counsel. 9. Mrs. Modlin advised me by e-mail at 6:35 a.m. on Tuesday, October 1, 2019, that she and Mr. Modlin were available to meet with us that afternoon. A true and accurate copy of the e-mail chain evincing this request and the acknowledgement of Mr. Modlin's treatment of me is attached hereto as Exhibit C. 10. I met with Mr. and Mrs. Modlin on October 1, 2019 at 3:00 p.m. on the 14th floor of the County-City Building in the Department of Community Investment conference room. My colleagues, Adam Toering, Historic Preservation Specialist, and Sandra Kennedy, Assistant City Attorney,were also present. 11. The meeting lasted approximately one (1) hour, and we discussed what the Historic Preservation Commission members would expect to see in an application packet for a retroactive application for a Certificate of Appropriateness. 12. We received the packet on October 7, 2019, and I continued to work with the Modlins to obtain the additional information requested by the Historic Preservation Commission at the October 21, 2019 meeting. I affirm,under penalties for perjury,that the foregoing representations are true.

I know my husband and I feel passionately about our historic home and I apologize if this came off as anything other than passion and love for our home.When we purchased this property it was dilapidated almost beyond saving.We have revived it room by room, piece by piece and have poured our sweat,tears, and love into it over the past seven years.We were married on the property, have raised all of our children on the property,and have fostered children through our position as DCS foster parents here as well. I say all this to help you understand our frustration and passion.As you mentioned in our phone call,this is your job, but to us,this is our family home.We care a lot about it. We want to move forward from Monday's misunderstanding to find a solution to the issues discussed. I think it would be good to meet face to face with the team we spoke with on the phone Monday.That way there will be no misunderstandings moving forward.Although both my husband and I work full time and would prefer a time between 3:00 and 5:00,we are willing to work with whatever time(s)are convenient for you. We would like to find a time to meet before the due date for our certification of appropriateness paperwork, which I believe was set for October 7th. We have been working on the paperwork and would like to verify with an experienced person that it is all up to your standards. Please let us know when there is a time we can meet to discuss our differences and work out a plan moving forward so that we can preserve our family home.

The Gerry Battles Farm at 60649 Hickory has been purchased by Ben Modlin. He came in this morning to explain the scope of work that he is planning on performing to bring the house up to standards. All the exterior work will be routine maintenance and repair. He's a Purdue grad and is doing most of the work himself. This house has been vacant for many years and the subject of many inquiries to this Office. But Ben is now the owner as of April 25 and it looks like the place is in very good hands.

The roof they think is a wood shake but the 1975 Survey Card says composite. From what I have been told,the roof has tarps all over it; so a repair job is most likely completely out of the question and it will need to be a complete tear off and re-roof with asphalt shingles to resemble what is currently on the roof. You will probably be asked a lot more questions about the general state of things with this property. so,take the Local Landmark Guidelines and a copy of the Meetings COA deadlines(attached) I have put the file on Elicia's desk. Contact information: Alan's cell: 574 806 3853 Shilla (pronounced Sheila) is at 574-772 4943 or 574 772 1640. Keep me posted on this and your visit with the folks at Central Apartments.

Gerry Battles bought the SE 1/4 of Section 32 from John Price in 1862. The house was built in 1869 by Gerry Battles. It is currently classified as a Gabled-ell/stick style in architectural style. It was classified as Gothic Vernacular in the 1975 survey card. After the house was built Gerry Battles divided the quarter section of the land and sold the North half to his son, Delbert, and the South half to his son Temple. 1942, after the death of Delbert Battles his widow, Anna and the other children sold their share to Homer Battles. Homer Battles was a veterinarian and farmer. He never married and after his death in 1973 the farm was sold to Kenneth Sailor, By 1986 the house was noted to be in very poor condition. In 1988 a new roof was applied for with a Certificate of Appropriateness issued to Relative Real Estate Management, Inc. It is unclear if this work was actually done. Another re-roof was applied for and completed in the Spring, 2011 for CitiBank by C&C Services of Knox, Indiana. The house still requires extensive work on both interior and exterior. There were reports to this Office and the Health Department of a bat infestation in the attic. Please let me know if you need any further information. Catherine D. Hostetler, Director, Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St.Joseph County, Indiana 574 235 9798 >>> Mike Schmuhl <mikeschmuhl@gmail.com> 9/15/2011 8:47 AM >>> Hello, I wanted to see if you had any information on the property at 60649 Hickory Rd. 46614 on the south side of South Bend. I might be interested in purchasing the property and I believe the farmhouse is a historical structure. Any information you can provide, I would appreciate. If that's not possible, I understand that too.

JOSEPH COUNTY, ) ) Appellee. ) AFFIDAVIT OF ELICIA FEASEL The undersigned states as follows: 1. I am employed by the City of South Bend, Indiana(the"City")as the Historic Preservation Administrator in the Department of Community Investment. 2. Ben and Carrie Modlin are known to me as the owners of an historic landmark situated at 60649 Hickory Road, South Bend, Indiana. 3. On Tuesday, September 3, 2019 at 10:40 a.m., the Department of Historic Preservation received an e-mail from coachmodlin@gmail.com, which is the address of Ben Modlin, seeking assistance with regard to the "red tag on my back door." 4. I responded to Mr.Modlin on Wednesday,September 4,2019 at 1:17 p.m.with information about how to file an application for a Certificate of Appropriateness. 5. Mr. Modlin again sent an e-mail to me from the coachmodlin@gmail.com address on Wednesday, September 4,2019 at 2:14 p.m.requesting assistance regarding a"red tag on my back door" and I responded at 2:32 p.m. that same day. EXHIBIT 6. I forwarded my response from Wednesday, September 4,2019 at 1:17 p.m. to Mr. Modlin at his work e-mail address at modlinb@mishawaka.k12.in.us on Thursday, September 5, 2019 at 1:55 .m.� Modlin's at Mr. after he claimed not to have received it at Prequest, coachmodlin@gmail.com. A true and accurate copy of that e-mail exchange is attached hereto as Exhibits A and B. 7. I spoke with Mr. Modlin by telephone on several occasions, and, in one instance, felt uncomfortable with the manner in which I was addressed by Mr. Modlin as he vented his frustration at the Certificate of Appropriateness application process at me. 8. I agreed to meet in person with both Mr. and Mrs. Modlin, provided that additional staff were present, including legal counsel. 9. Mrs. Modlin advised me by e-mail at 6:35 a.m. on Tuesday, October 1,2019, that she and Mr. Modlin were available to meet with us that afternoon. A true and accurate copy of the e-mail chain evincing this request and the acknowledgement of Mr. Modlin's treatment of me is attached hereto as Exhibit C. 10. I met with Mr. and Mrs. Modlin on October 1, 2019 at 3:00 p.m. on the 14th floor of the County-City Building in the Department of Community Investment conference room. My colleagues, Adam Toering, Historic Preservation Specialist, and Sandra Kennedy, Assistant City Attorney,were also present. 11. The meeting lasted approximately one (1) hour, and we discussed what the Historic Preservation Commission members would expect to see in an application packet for a retroactive application for a Certificate of Appropriateness. 12. We received the packet on October 7, 2019, and I continued to work with the Modlins to obtain the additional information requested by the Historic Preservation Commission at the October 21, 2019 meeting. I affirm, under penalties for perjury,that the foregoing representations are true.

I wanted to again apologize for any misconceptions that were brought about from Monday's phone call. I know my husband and I feel passionately about our historic home and I apologize if this came off as anything other than passion and love for our home.When we purchased this property it was dilapidated almost beyond saving.We have revived it room by room, piece by piece and have poured our sweat,tears, and love into it over the past seven years.We were married on the property, have raised all of our children on the property,and have fostered children through our position as DCS foster parents here as well. I say all this to help you understand our frustration and passion.As you mentioned in our phone call,this is your job,but to us,this is our family home.We care a lot about it. We want to move forward from Monday's misunderstanding to find a solution to the issues discussed. I think it would be good to meet face to face with the team we spoke with on the phone Monday.That way there will be no misunderstandings moving forward.Although both my husband and I work full time and would prefer a time between 3:00 and 5:00,we are willing to work with whatever time(s)are convenient for you. We would like to find a time to meet before the due date for our certification of appropriateness paperwork,which I believe was set for October 7th. We have been working on the paperwork and would like to verify with an experienced person that it is all up to your standards. Please let us know when there is a time we can meet to discuss our differences and work out a plan moving forward so that we can preserve our family home.
