Agenda Title:

13RS031 - Appeal by Richard Bray of Historic Preservation Commission’s recommended denial of roofing permit at 1116 South Street

Summary:

On December 6, 2013 the Historic Preservation Commission (Commission) determined that the applicant’s request to install a seam metal roof at 1116 South Street would have an adverse effect to historic property. The SD State Historical Preservation Office (SHPO) agreed with their finding. In accordance with SDCL 24:52:07:03, the City and the applicant prepared a Case Report to document relative factors and feasible and prudent alternatives to minimize the adverse effect. On August 1, 2014 the Commission determined that the Case Report documents the relevant factors and alternatives necessary to make a final determination on the project.

 

The applicant requests that City Council review the Case Report and approve the appeal of the Commission and SHPO determination of an adverse effect to historic property by installing a seam metal roof.
