SUBJECT: Request for a certificate of appropriateness to allow the

FILE: CA-1582
STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends denial of the windows and
approval of the siding and roof.
Calixtro Linares has applied for a certificate of appropriateness to
allow the replacement of windows, siding and a roof. The property is
located at 2195 Evalon.
Mr. Linares states that the windows on the house suffered hurricane
damage. The original wood frame windows are one over one pane.
The replacement windows are six over six pane bronze aluminum
frame. The Historic District regulations state that the frames of
windows should be trimmed in a manner typical of the style of the
building. The Planning Manager questions whether the bronze frames
are appropriate with the style of the house. Typically, the Historic
Landmark Commission has denied bronze frames.
Mr. Linares is also installing hardie plank. The house originally had
asbestos siding. He is installing what appears to be 8" planks with a
2" overhang.
The house is not listed in the SPARE Beaumont Survey.
