BACKGROUND:
recommendation
Christian Voelkel, Irby & Voelkel Engineering, is seeking CONCEPTUAL approval for the design of a new residence as well as modifications to an existing contributing structure. The proposed work includes the combination of two lots into one parcel. A two-story single family dwelling will be constructed in the rear portion of the site’s buildable area. Although this property is located within the Brick Structures District, Streetscapes Type 1 and 2 for the Wood Cottages District are allowed. Proposed work to the existing contributing structure will include adding a brick base and front wood details. A request to relocate the existing structure to the rear of the lot was denied by the Board in March 2019. At that meeting, the Board agreed that placing a proposed main structure in the rear yard would be acceptable.
Please find attached all relevant documentation for your review.
