HomeMy WebLinkAboutCA-1443 DATE: April 14, 2008 TO: Historic Landmark Commission FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Request for a certificate of appropriateness to allow a 4' tall wire fence in the front yard FILE: CA-1443 STAFF REPORT The Planning Manager recommends denial of this request. Marco and Steffani Carrillo have applied for a certificate of appropriateness (CA) to allow a 4' tall wire fence in the front yard of their home. The fence was constructed without a certificate of appropriateness. Planning staff notified the property owners that they must apply for a CA. The property is located at 1791 North. The Historic District regulations state that a fence in a front or corner side yard must be constructed of wrought iron, wood or brick. In April, 2006, a fence to be constructed of similar materials was proposed for a house in the 2500 Block of North but it was withdrawn by the applicant. The house is listed in the 1990 SPARE Beaumont survey. SPARE states that the house was built c. 1922 and is of the Vernacular Craftsman style. The house is typical of middle class housing built in Beaumont in the 1920-30's. Exhibit is attached.
