REGULAR MEETING
1) CA-1465: Request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to allow the replacement of
windows.
Location: 2422 Pecos
Applicant: Eric and Roxanne Hellberg
Historic Landmark Commission
October 13, 2008
Mr. Richardson presented the staff report. In May, Eric and Roxanne Hellberg
applied for a certificate of appropriateness to allow the replacement of windows at
2422 Pecos. I approved windows of similar appearance to the existing windows
which were multi -lights. The windows were replaced with single pane over single
pane. According to Ms. Hellberg, there was a misunderstanding as to the type of
windows approved.
At the August 11 Historic Landmark Commission meeting, the Commission asked
Ms. Hellberg to speak to her contractor about the possibility of installing mullions
in the existing windows. The Hellbergs got an estimate of over $9,000 to install the
mullions.
Mr. Richardson stated that while his preference would be for the multi -light
windows to have been installed, it was his opinion, the cost to install the mullions
is cost prohibitive. Therefore, he recommended approval of the windows that have
been placed in the house.
Slides of the subject property were shown.
Chairman Yoes asked for the applicant's comments.
Roxanne Hellberg, the applicant, addressed the Commission and answered
questions.
(Commissioner Mehaffy arrived.)
Discussion of alternatives for the windows followed.
Commissioner LaBiche made a motion to approve a Certificate of Appropriateness
to allow the replacement of windows at 2422 Pecos as requested in CA-1464 with
the stipulation that mullions be installed on the 9 front windows only and not the
entire house. Commissioner Broussard seconded the motion. Motion to approve
carried 8:0.
2) CA- ISO 1: Request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to allow a front porch.
Location: 2145 Pecos
Applicant: Tamiko Judge
Mr. Richardson stated that the property owner called before the meeting to say she
could not be present and asked that the request be deferred until the next meeting
so she could be present.
Commissioner Mehaffy made a motion to defer a request for a Certificate of
Appropriateness to allow a front porch on the house at 2145 Pecos as requested in
CA-1501 until the next meeting. Commissioner Linsley seconded the motion.
Motion to approve carried 8:0.
