BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
Submitted for Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) review.

BACKGROUND:
The subject property is an approximately 11,250 square foot parcel located at the northeast corner of Van Buren Avenue and Sleight Street, with a common street address of 32 S. Sleight Street. The property is zoned R2 (Single-family and Low-Density Multiple-Family Residence District) and is currently improved with a two and a half story, Gabled Ell, Queen Anne architectural style home.

Two COA applications were found on record for the home. HSC (Historic Sites Commission) 00-04 was submitted for demolition of the detached garage and HSC 00-05 was submitted for construction of a new detached garage. The garage was removed but no new garage appears to have been constructed in its replacement.

* Replace the existing windows with aluminum clad double hung windows that will match the original windows in size, proportion, type and design;
* Add window trim that was previously removed;
* Enlarge, move, and add new windows to the west and south street facing facades;
* Replace the doors with wood doors that are consistent with the style and period of the home;
* Remove the siding and replace with wood 2-lap siding with a 3-inch exposure that will mimic the original siding in reveal, spacing and profile;
* Replace the asphalt shingles;
* Construct an addition to the north side of the home that can be seen from Sleight Street. The proposed addition is approximately 560 sf (14' x 40') and will have a 100 sf (7' x 14') deck construct...
