Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Request for a certificate of appropriateness to allow an addition and the installation of new windows to an existing house at 1950 Long. FILE: CA-1425 STAFF REPORT The Planning Manager recommends approval of all the work except for the windows along the front and side facades. Miguel Martinez and Aurora Angeles have applied for a certificate of appropriateness to allow an addition and the installation of new windows and siding to an existing house. The house is located at 1950 Long. The work to be done to the house will include constructing a 33' x 43' addition onto the rear of the structure. The addition will include a studio, storage, exercise room, restroom, laundry room and master bedroom. The addition=s roof will be gabled and shingled with an architectural shingle to match the roof on the rest of the house. The siding on the existing structure and the addition will be hardiplank with an approximate plank width appearance of 6 2". Mr. Martinez states that he would like to replace the existing front door with a fiberglass door. In addition, all the windows would be replaced with double-pane, six light (top and bottom) white vinyl windows. The Planning Manager recommends approval of all the proposed work except for the windows on the front and side facades. The current windows are two-over-two sash windows. The Planning Manager feels that these particular windows are the most interesting feature of the house and should be preserved on the front and side facades. Exhibits are attached.
