REMARKS:
This item has been removed from the Historic Preservation Committee Agenda for June 25,
2025.
Staff reevaluated the proposed project and determined that the work falls under the Minor
Repair clause of Section 4.3 of the Residential Design Guidelines, which states that if minor
repair work is proposed and the materials will be replaced in kind, only a Building Permit will be
required. The proposed project includes repair and replacement of wood window jambs and
sashes with matching wood materials and design. There will be no alteration to window frames
and the size, placement, orientation, and operation of the windows in question will be
maintained. The project will not result in a change to the exterior appearance of the historic
resource. As such, the project meets the standards of Section 29.80.290 of the Town Code, in
that the proposed work on the residence located in a historic district will neither adversely
affect the exterior architectural characteristics or other features of the property, nor adversely
affect its relationship, in terms of harmony and appropriateness, with its surroundings,
including neighboring structures, nor adversely affect the character, or the historical,
architectural or aesthetic interest or value of the district. The application will continue through
the Building Permit process and will be subject to the approval of the Community Development
Director. Review by the Historic Preservation Committee is not required.
