Agenda Title:

14RS004 -  Appeal of the Historic Preservation Commission’s Stipulation to Preserve Scalloped Trim  at 1725 9th Street

Summary:

The applicant submitted an 11.1 Review application for historic review after he received a stop work order for replacing siding in the historic district without a permit. At the time the stop work order was issued, a majority of the original siding had already been removed. At the February 7, 2014 HPC meeting, the HPC discussed the architectural character of the property and recommended a finding that replacing the wood siding with LP Smartside siding applied in a ribbon pattern, and replacing the scalloped trim would have no adverse effect to historic property. The SHPO concurred with their findings. On March 21, the property owner came to the HPC meeting to request clarification to the stipulations of the project approval. The property owner has since finished siding the house, following the ribbon pattern. He has not replaced the scalloped trim.

 

The applicant requests that the City Council review the contents of the Report and and overturn the stipulation requiring the the scalloped trim be replaced so that the final approval of the siding permit can be obtained.
