Re: Window Replacement at 179 Loma Alta Dr /
To Whom It May Concern,
We would like to kindly request the commitee to grant us approval for the replacement of 1 retrofit
window for the above referenced address. The one wood window to be replaced will be in the same
loca�on, opera�on and style. The window to be replaced is the only wood window in the home currently
and not the original window to the home as men�oned window has been replaced 5 �mes in the past.
The current window has issues with condensa�on, excessive heat exchange and UV causing fading in the
home. The rest of the exis�ng windows in the home are vinyl.
We, at Renewal by Andersen, acknowledge that the window replacement on this dwelling will meet the
requirements for Residen�al Design Guidelines to improve and enhance the look of the residence, aside
from the energy efficiency they will provide. We assure you our wood composite window will preserve
the architectural style and historic appearance of the home against what currently exists. Please refer to
our window specifica�ons and window brochures for more informa�on and details. Thank you in
advance for your considera�on. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need addi�onal clarifica�on.
Looking forward to hearing from you
Best regards,
Hilda Ramirez
