Exterior Renovations to a Contributing Structure
end
BACKGROUND:
Scott Amberson is seeking approval for exterior renovations to a contributing structure. All work will be done to Unit B which is the north (rear) half of the building and hidden from street view. An overview of all work has been provided, as well as details per work area. These include replacing elements such as lighting, doors, windows, decking, and handrails, while new elements such as siding infill, a second rear awning, a tankless water heater and new skirting will be added. The two rear doors will be replaced with matching wood doors, and the windows will be double hung 2/2 wood. The hallway between the main house and the attached accessory space will be partially closed in with matching wood siding and turned into a stacked washer and dryer closet. The rear decking will be replaced with Trex decking and all repairs to the handrails and balusters will be done with in-kind materials and design.
Please find attached all relevant documentation for your review.
