SUBJECT: Request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to change a roof from green to red.
FILE: CA-2833
STAFF REPORT
Staff recommends denial as an actual sample, or photo example, of the proposed roofing has not
been received.
After Hurricane Ike, Mr. Akins reroofed his home at 2335 Harrison with a dark green shingle.
Mr. Akins is now requesting to reroof the house with a red shingle. Several other roofs in the
neighborhood are shades of red resembling red tile, or a brownish red. If a sample is presented
by the time of the meeting, and is a dark brownish red or an acceptable tile red, staff would not
be opposed to the red roof.
The house is in the 1991 SPARE Beaumont Survey. SPARE states that the house was built c.1930.
Exhibits are attached.
