STAFF REPORT The property owner has installed air conditioning ducts to the exterior of the restaurant structure at 797 N. 5th. The property owner states that the duct work was necessary to centrally air condition the structure. He states that broken and unsightly window units were removed upstairs and that floor ducts that were hazardous to people walking were removed downstairs. The vinyl siding that is being used to cover up the exterior ducts will match the existing vinyl siding on the structure. The Lees have submitted a new proposal for the Historic Landmark Commission to consider. They propose to paint the south side ductwork white and will create a latticework to cover the ductwork on the north side. They will plant vines to then cover the trellis. Exhibits are attached.
