HomeMy WebLinkAboutCA-1892 DATE: December 13, 2010 TO: Historic Landmark Commission FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Request for a certificate of appropriateness to allow the temporary placement of a modular residential building FILE: CA- 1892 STAFF REPORT The Planning Manager recommends approval subject to the following conditions: 1. The structure shall be removed within one (1) year of the issuance of the certificate of occupancy. 2. The building shall be skirted and meet wind load requirements. Marion Tanner, representing Garth House, is requesting a certificate of appropriateness to allow the temporary placement of a modular residential building at 1855 McFaddin. One of the Garth House=s residential buildings is undergoing mold remediation and renovation. During that time, the Garth House needs to provide temporary housing for the tenants. Garth House would like to move a temporary, 36' x 60' modular building on the parking lot at the rear of 1855 McFaddin. Ms. Tanner states that the building will not be there longer than one year. To the east of the subject property is an apartment complex. To the west is Garth House property and to the south is commercial. While the moving of this type of modular building would not normally be recommended for approval, due to its location and its temporary nature, the Planning Manager is recommending approval. Exhibit is attached.
