SUBJECT: Request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to replace garage doors, install
gutters, replace porch posts, and paint house.
FILE: PZ2021-377
STAFF REPORT
Eric Newell is seeking permission to replace garage doors, porch posts, install gutters, and paint
the house located at 2445 Louisiana Street. He has requested the exterior body paint be Secret
Garden (SW6181), trim to be Downing Sand (SW2822), shutters to be Naval (SW6244), and
front door to be Interesting Aqua (SW6220). Please reference the paint swatches located in
your packet.
Mr. Newell intends to replace two (2) garage doors with two (2) new garage doors from
Overhead Door Company, which will be almond in color with windows. Additionally, he would
like to replace the rotting front porch posts. He requests permission for the new posts to be
square -only in profile and wood stained. Lastly, he requests to install gutters.
This home is categorized as a Modern Ranch Style house. Examples of this style house are in A
Field Guide to American Houses (McAlester et al., pg. 479-480). The existing square top porch
posts with decorative design elements seem appropriate for Ranch Style homes during the
1970s era. Changing the posts to an all square profile does not seem appropriate for homes of
this era.
Staff recommends denial of the request to replace the porch posts. Staff recommends approval
of the request to paint house, install gutters and replace garage doors with the following
conditions:
1. The gutters shall be installed to blend in with and be the same color as the trim.
The property is not listed in the SPARE Beaumont Survey.

Reason for Request ofuCertificate ofAppropriateness:
Need to repaint home, replace garage doors, and rotting front porch posts. Would like toput io
anew wooden fence ifvvehave enough money left.
Type of Request: Paint, Fencing, Miscellaneous (new garage door/posts/gutters)
Comments: My house is in dire need of painting, it has some rotted wood, but the primary issue is the
flaking painting. We experienced a few inches water in our guest bedroom during Imelcla, which
resulted inwork being done tothe foundation. Now =eare working onthe cosmetic issues onthe
outside and inside.
You previously approved arequest tobasically paint hwhat it|snow, in018,but wewould like to
make a few revisions the plan with e deeper green paint scheme /SVV 6181 Sweet Garden), blue shutters
(SVV6244 Naval), and tannish trim (SW 2832 Downing Sand). The trim may change slightly to match the
nevvQaraAedoors. The new front porch posts are tobestained wood. VVefeel these colors are
appropriate for aGOastyle ranch home.
We choose an almond door with windows out of the four-color options available from garage doors
from Overhead Doors.
Additionally, on the advance of the engineers who oversaw the foundation repair, we are likely going to
put |ngutters around the roof ofthe house.
Finally, if we have enough money (not likely given the extent of work being done), we would like to
install anew six nreight foot fence similar tVones that have gone upinour neighborhood

RANCH (ca. 1935-75)
This style was originated in the mid- ig3os by several creative California
architects. It gained in popularity during the 1940s to become the domi-
nant style throughout the country during the decades of the '50s and '6os,
The popularity of "rambling" Ranch houses was tirade possible by the
country's increasing dependence or, the automobile. Streetcar suburbs of
the late-19th and early-2oth centuries still used relatively compact house
forms an small lots because people walked to nearby streetcar lines, As the
automobile replaced streetcars and buses as the principal means of personal
transportation in the decades following World War 11, compact houses
could be replaced by sprawling designs on much larger lots. Never before
had it been possible to be so lavish with land, and the rambling form of
the Ranch house emphasizes this by maximizine facade wichl, (which is
