replacing the dormers and that they are working with the City to ensure all of the codes and

OTHER BUSINESS
1) Review and approve memorandum for 794 N. 3rd Street.
Mrs. Engman presented the proposed memorandum. In December of 2021, the Historic
Landmark Commissioner heard the request of Terry Highsmith, who requested permission to
construct a stucco fence, for the property located at 794 3rd Street. The fence would encompass
the backyard and be visible from the street right-of-way along 3rd Street and Hazel Avenue. The
fence would be six (6) feet in height and eight (8) inches in width. Additionally, the fence would
be made of concrete blocks, covered with stucco and painted white with decorative columns.
Historic Landmark Commission
May 9, 2022
Sec. 28.03.018 (g)(3)(D) Historic -Cultural Landmark Preservation Overlay District states a
fence in a front or corner side yard must be constructed of wrought iron, wood or brick.
Concrete block fences are not permitted.
After an extended discussion, the Commission voted 10.0 to deny the request. An appeal was
fled on this denial and was heard by the City Council on January 11, 2022. The City Council
tabled the item and requested that it return to the Connnission for a recommendation on what
would be acceptable.
During the Historic Landmark Commission meeting on February 14, 2022, the Commission
discussed the case again and reached a consensus that a wooden fence with brick inlay would be
recommended as a stucco fence would not be appropriate with the time period of this house.
A consensus of the Commission was reached to move forward with the memorandum as written.
THERE BEING NO OTHER BUSINESS, THE MEETING WAS ADJOURNED AT 3:43

FROM: Demi Engman, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: A request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to install an air conditioning unit
into side wall, enclose and replace windows, replace front door and paint house.
FILE: PZ2022-211
STAFF REPORT
Martin Galvan Valdez, homeowner, is seeking permission to reduce windows on the left
and right fagade, replace windows, replace front door, paint, and install an air
conditioning unit into the south side of the house located at 251 5th Street. All proposed
work has been completed without the benefit of a Certificate of Appropriateness (CA) or
a building permit. Originally, the south side of the house had five (5) windows and now
remaining are three (3). The north side of the house had four (4) windows and now
remaining are three (3). Mr. Valdez originally had 1/1 pane windows and requests to
install 6/6 pane windows.
Mr. Valdez wishes to keep the front door he installed, with your permission. He began
painting his house blue but has yet to finish due to the Stop Work Order that was posted
May 16, 2022. Please reference your packets for visuals of the aforementioned.
Lastly, the homeowner seeks permission to keep the air conditioning unit that has been
installed, which protrudes through the wall of the home and is visible from the street
right-of-way. He explained that due to the encampment at 2197 Laurel, he needs to
place his units higher from the ground to prevent future theft of units, as it has happened
to him.
This home is categorized as a Craftsman house. Examples for this style of home are
located in A Field Guide to American Houses (McAlester et al., pgs. 456-461). The request
to reduce amount of windows, 6 over 6 pane windows, AC units in the wall and front door
choice does not seem appropriate for a craftsman style home within this era when
referencing A Field Guide to American Houses.
Staff recommends denial of this request. Staff encourages options to be discussed for
Mr. Valdez's renovations.
This house is not listed in the SPARE Beaumont Survey.
