The Guidelines states the following: Front walks ini residential areas shall lead directly from the public. sidewalk to the front door of the structure. Ms. Clark, it does, this is a public sidewalk. Ms. Couch, does not say the primary entrance. Mr. Craigie, it is still a public sidewalk on the side of the house. Ms. Couch, it does not read ifit has as 90 degree turn. Colleen Knight, ifiti is the roots from the trees that caused the problem, the Barnes do not have any alternative. Scarlett Boutchyard, from the insurance side, ift theiri insurance company' was to come out to assess the house they would probably make the Barnes remove or repair the sidewalk. Ms. Boutchyard, does not know ift the Barnes has looked into what could be done to repair the existing sidewalk and would like to know if that could be done. Ms. Clark, thati is not what the request states, we need to decide if this meets the guidelines. Karen Mann, there are big trees with roots all over town andi is concern that everyone will start removing sidewalks. Ms. Mann believes that the sidewalk is a historic park of the house. Mr. Craigie, how many homes have a sidewalk that goes directly from the street to the front door? Mr. Craigie has one inside his yard but not coming from the street. Scarlett Boutchyard, clarified that Mr. Craigie does have a sidewalk coming directly from a public sidewalk. Mr. Craigie misunderstood and does have a sidewalk going to his front door. Ms. Clark, the guidelines do not say that they cannot remove the sidewalk. Mr. Stephen Barnes, came forward and was: sworn in. Mr. Barnes came forward toa answer questions. Cheri Vaughn, what is the main reason for removing the sidewalk. Mr. Barnes, stated, it so badly damaged and is beyond repair. His concern is that someone will get injured. Kathleen Couch, Ms. Nash had mentioned that there are large tree roots all over the property, if you were to place a sidewalk coming off of Harvey Street are you going to have the same problem? Mr. Barnes, no, there are not tree roots all over the property. There are tree roots coming from the giant magnolia tree in the front yard and another tree brought back to the table. Revised: October 7,2019 Page2of12 over the driveway, thisi is the reason why the driveway cannot be paved. There is not a problem with a short sidewalk going to Harvey Street, no trees oni this side of the property. Cheri Vaughn, ify you could go around the tree? She withdrew her question. Kathleen Couch, what type of material will be used entering from Harvey: Street, will it be concrete? Mr. Barnes, at this time not sure of the material, excavation has not been completed. (NOT AUDIBLE). * Kathleen Couch made the following motion: move that the Historic Preservation Commission grant a Certificate of Appropriateness to Mr. Stephen Barnes to make the above changes on the property located at 303 East Main Street. This motion is based on the following findings of fact: the application is congruous with the Historic Preservation Commission Design Guidelines, specifically Chapter 3.4 Windows and Doors, 3.6 Porches and Entryways, 4.3 Parking, Driveways, and Sidewalks, and 5.3 Additions. Please note that this certificate deviates from the standards to remove the front walkway due to the physical hazard of the broken concrete from the tree roots. Colleen Knight seconded the motion and all voted 6 in favor and 1 (Karen Mann) opposed. 2. Arequest has been made by Beaufort County for a Certificate of Appropriateness to replace two windows on the second floor of the front facade on the property located at 111 West Second Street. Ms. Christina Smith, Public Works Director for Beaufort County, representing Beaufort County, came forward and was sworn in. Ms. Smith, asking to replace two windows on the building on second street. Currently this building houses the District Attorney's Office. Due to the damaged windows the office is not usable. The windows were replaced in the 1980's. The existing windows have snap in mutins that are currently falling into the offices. The request is the replace the existing windows with wood windows that are wrapped in vinyl. These windows were previously approved by the Commission in 2015 to replace two windows on thei first floor of the same building. The window will have 8 panes over 8 panes, the manufacture sheet shows 6 panes over 61 panes. This will be a custom order so that itwill match the existing windows. The windows will have a white raised profile. Scarlett Boutchyard, will the mutins match what the existing windows? Ms. Smith, yes. Ms. Vaughn, what is the type of windows in the reset of the building? Ms. Smith, currently there are six different types of windows. Some windows have been replaced int the 1980's and there are some original windows. Ms. Vaughn, more concern is with the front façade of the building. Ms. Smith, all are original with storm windows. Kathleen Couch, clarified that all are original except the two windows that are being requested for replacement. Ms. Smith, to best of her knowledge thati is correct. Some may have been replaced in the! 50's or 60's. Scot Craigie, stated thet two windows below the windows in question have been replaced at some point. Ms. Boutchyard, the bulk of the windows are wood windows. Ms. Smith, yes, the windows in question would be wood windows just wrapped in vinyl. Ms. Boutchyard, a wooden window do not have to be wrapped inv vinyl, the window can be painted. Ms. Smith, for the maintenance side she would prefer the vinyl clad. The windows in the application were previously approved by the Commission in 2015 and Ms. Smith is trying to! be consistent in the choice of window. Ms. Couch, clarification, are there any wood windows presently installed ini the front of the building? Ms. Smith, yes. Ms. Couch, which Chairman, Cheri Vaughn asked for any questions. Revised: October 7, 2019 Page3 3of12 ones? Ms. Smith, there are six that appear to be wooden windows with age. Ms. Boutchyard, at some point you would replace all of the windows with the vinyl clad? Ms. Smith, yes. Ms. Boutchyard, even though the company makesa wooden windows. Ms. Smith, yes. Collen Knight, the windows that you want to replace, were they installed in the 1980's? Ms. Smith, yes, not able to locate records. Ms. Vaughn, would you be opposed to replace with wood windows. Ms. Smith, Twould prefer the vinyl clad windows, this is due to the cost of maintenance. But the windows need to be replaced. Scot Craigie, could you replace with vinyl clad sashes and then you would be keeping the same wood frame. Ms. Smith, that is a possibility. Ms. Boutchyard, the wood window hasa a 40 year plus warranty. Karen Mann, is this building a contributing structure. Staff, the building was built in 1936 and the addition was built later. The building is age appropriate and it could be a contributing structure. Mr. Craigie, ift the two windows ont the right side were approved in 2015 whyi is there any discussion on this replacement window. Collen Knight, the biggest concern from the public has been consistency and we are talking about the same building with the same issue and now we are not going to approve something that was already approved. Ms. Boutchyard, soon the entire building will be vinyl windows and no wooden windows. Ms. Vaughn, the Commission needs to be concern with the guidelines and not what a Commission ruled in previous years. Ms. Couch, we need to be concern with the primary façade as opposed to a secondary façade and the direction of the street the secondary façade is not visible to the street until you have passed the building. Ms. Mann, the financial aspect is not something that the Commission is supposed to consider. Ms. Couch, nor do we consider precedent. Ms. Smith, clarification, ift this is not approved could installing wood Chairman, Cheri Vaughn asked for any questions. There were no questions and was Karen Mann, there are many different types of windows installed in the building and this building would fit in betteri if the windows would be wood. Cheri Vaughn, even though vinyl windows were approved in the past, the current Commission needs to try to bring the building back to its original. Scarlett Boutchyard, if they are looking to replace others in thei future then the entire building would become vinyl clad windows. Scott Craigie, thei two that are in question are currently vinyl windows. Ms. Mann, but the original was wood. Mr. Craigie, ify you are replacing with like material, should this even come before the commission? Staff, the existing windows are replacement windows. Mr. Craigie, but the existing window isvinyl. Collen Knight, they are not original, the windows were replaced in the 80's. Mr. Craigie, went and looked at the windows and thinks that the windows in question are vinyl. Ms. Boutchyard, there was al lot of things going on in the 70's and 80's that really should not have happened. Ms. Knight, even with that being said, if you are replacing like for like, so if the windows are vinyl now Ms. Smith should not have had to come before the Commission. Ms. Mann, the guidelines states that it should match the original oft the building. Mr. Craigie, stated that it also says like for like. Ms. Vaughn, asked if the windows are wood. Staff, understood that they were wood with snap in mutins. Ms. Smith, clarification, is the main issue that the windows are located on the front façade, again Ms. Smith works on an annual budget and not sure if she could replace all of the windows in one year or would have to spread out to other budget years. If the windows on the front façade were to be replaced with wood windows, would the side façade be able to match the existing vinyl windows? Ms. Vaughn, there are different windows be considered a Minor' Works. Staff, yes. brought back to the table. Revised: October 7,2019 Page4of12 guidelines fori the side facades. Rebecca Clark, as al board we are not allow to comment ont future applications, we can only address what is currently ini front of the Commission. Ms. Boutchyard, the angle oft the street will depend ont the guidelines. Ms. Couch, read Chapter-3 3.4.3 from the Historic District Design Guidelines. The guidelines state the following: Ifreplacement of a window or door unit is necessary, the new unit should be replaced to match the original in size, scale, material, detail, pane and/or panel configurations. Soi in this case the original windows would have been wood. Mr. Craigie, how do you know that you Ms. Smith withdrew the application to replace two windows on the front façade of the building with two vinyl clad windows. Beaufort County will proceed with NO VOTE WAS TAKEN DUE TO THE WITHDRAWAL OF THE APPLICATION. are replacing the original? replacing the windows with wooden windows. 3. A request has been made by INA LLC. for a Certificate of Appropriateness to. make the following alterations south façade on the property located at: 157 West Main Street: a. Introduce 3 arched openings on second floor b. Construction ofa deck C. Installation ofa a rollup door d. Introduce 1 door with a sidelight on first floor e. Replace the two existing windows Introduce 3 or 4 arched windows on the west façade of the newer: addition Mr. Sed Naziri, came forward and was. sworn in. Renovation began on the front façade and going to the rear and to the side. After completion of the front façade renovations will continue to the rear. Currently the rear façade looks like a warehouse with no openings. Proposing to make 3 large doors or windows on the second level. On the lower level would like to have access sO that equipment could move in and out of the building. This opening would be al large double door orar roll up (garage type door) and would be mechanically open and close. The existing door and: side light will be moved to the side and will become a new location for windows. For the deck, the design has not been completed by the architect and: structural engineer. Access for the second level will be the side door and a room inside with a stair case going to the second level. The stairs will depend on the architect and structural engineer. The deck will have two raised decks on the side. Public will be able to walk out and: step up: SO that they can see the river. The reason for the raised deck is due to Ribeye's has installed electrical equipment and is encroaching on the property. You must have three feet on either side oft the electrical, but you are allowed to go above the electrical. Rebecca Clark, will the exterior. stairs serve as at fire escape? Mr. Naziri, this will depend on the architect and structural engineer. The drawings are to show the possibility of what might happen. (referring to the drawings) Colleen Knight, is this the deck that you are going to build? Mr. Naziri, same location but may have additional design to make more attractive. Kathleen Couch, the drawings look wonderful, but having a problem visualizing what is currently there and what your vision. Currently on the lower floor there are al lot of doors that you want to introduce. Do you have any pictures of what is current and what you want revise? Mr. Naziri, not at this time, have pictures on my phone. Previously there were two large openings at the rear of the building and at some time the openings were filled in with cinder blocks and closed off. This was also done on the front of the Chairman, Cheri Vaughn asked for any questions. Revised: October 7,2019 Page5of12 building. Karen Mann, is the building currently 2 stories or just one open area. Mr, Naziri, currently the building is 2 stories. Scarlett Boutchyard, asked: staffif they were able to locate any pictures that would show facades of the building? Staff, no information was able to be located. The building was maybe built in the late 1960's or 1970's. Mr. Naziri, it is apparent that the openings were original and filled with new brick and cinder blocks. Rebecca Clark, is this building a contributing structure. Staff, no iti is not a contributing structure. Ms. Mann, the entire: structure or just the rear of the building. Staff, the entire structure. Due to how the building has been altered oft the years. Ms. Clark, the front would be original. Mr. Naziri, yes. Ms. Mann, there are windows on the lower side of the building, there are. some double hung windows with al little bit of an arch. Colleen Knight, the request states that you are going to replace 3 or 4 windows on the side, but the rendering shows much more. Mr. Naziri, this was just an idea for the type and: style of window that would bei installed in the future. There is not light coming in on that portion of the building. The number of windows are not exact. The design that the architect shows about7. Ms. Knight, is that depended of the interior design. Mr. Naziri, it is more depended on what type of business will bei in the space. Cheri Vaughn, the concept is very nice, just does not feel like there is enough information to make decision, sounds more like ani idea and other applications have been presented that show more detail. Ms. Couch, would like to see what is currently in place and what will be final. Staff, do you want it superimposed on top of each other. Ms. Couch, yes. Ms. Vaughn, we would require this from anyone else that was coming before the commission. Ms. Couch, would need details on the doors on the lower level showing the dimensions and showing what would be placed in the openings. Ms. Vaughn, not sure if Mr. Naziri would like to delay for a month and return with more details. Mr. Naziri, cannot delay due to the master mason is working on the project. Mr. Naziri has already had delays and if he delays again not sure when the mason will be able to return. He is asking for the Commission to allow him to continue cutting the existing openings that werei filled in with cinder blocks. Then he will come back with more detail and additional design. Scott Craigie, there is nothing currently in place, iti is just a blank brick wall. Ms. Vaughn, iti is the back and is facing the river. Mr. Craigie, looking at Mr. Naziri's example, the riverside apartments are very similar to what he is asking to be approved. Ms. Mann, the hard part is what is proposed and what is being explained are hard to understand. Mr. Naziri, clarify what is the hard part. Ms. Vaughn, when applicants come before the Commission they have details of the windows that will be installed, the type of materials, etc. Mr. Naziri, every window int the front were the blocks are being removed, the windows are: SO damaged that the worker is repairing every opening. After every opening is repaired, then each window has to be measured and a custom window willl have to be ordered. There is no way to determine what type of window willl bei installed, not until all of the cuts and repairs are complete. Allow me to place plywood ini the openings afteri the cuts have been completed and then will return with more details. Ms. Couch, aren't you: suppose to make the cuts fort the: size of the window? Mr. Naziri, they will be custom windows. The size oft the windows is based on the cuts. For every window there has to be an arch, due to the integrity of the structure there cannot be any straight cuts. Ms. Mann, on the drawings there are 7 windows on the side, but your request is 3or4 windows. Itis vague on what you intend to accomplish but, do want to commend you on' what you have completed. Mr. Naziri, if the Commission would approve the back and five on the side. Ms. Knight, the windows on the side are already Revised: October 7,2019 Page6 6of12 existing. Ms. Mann, this isal brick wall currently. Staffi the addition was in the 60's and 70'sand windows would be located on the addition. Ms. Couch, the new windows will only be on the addition. Rebecca Clark, this is not ac contributing structure. Ms. Couch, wants to know what she is approving. Ifthere will4 4 windows or 7 windows and as per other details that are required, the same: as from other occupants. Ms. Knight, trying to clarify, Mr. Naziri has an expert that is currently working the building and once he has completed the front. That is your issue, you want to get as much work completed as possible. Mr. Naziri wants to move the mason directly to the rear of the building and for him to start masonry work. Mr. Naziri, after the mason has completed all of the cuts he will be able to leave. Mr. Naziri has a solution, already have windows on the side oft the first building and he can continue the same look and style, width, and dimensions and continue down the side of the building keeping the same pattern. Ms. Knight, how many window will need to be cut open? Ms. Mann, that will be al lot, because there is already a lot of windows done the side of the building. Mr. Naziri, the first building is 3 stories, then the second building is 2 stories. Iwould follow the pattern of the second story to the end oft the building. Ms. Knight, believes that this is reasonable. Ms. Boutchyard, you are not going to make any bigger openings than whati is currently on the building? Mr. Naziri, exactly, lam only going to remove the cinder blocks and recreating the opening, no smaller or larger. Chairman, Cheri Vaughn asked for any questions. Mr. Trent Tetterton, came forward and was sworn in. Stated the following in support of Mr. Naziri's project: Working with the downtown to try to beautify the downtown area. The "Belk" building has been vacant for over 30 years. Wanted to commend Mr. Naziri for his hard work and attention to detail. Mr. Naziri's workman is exceptional. Mr. Naziri came before this Commission back in November of 2018 to get approval for thei front façade when his craftsman was available at the time. Had Mr. Naziri been able to go ahead, the front façade would be complete. Mr. Naziri is trying to transform the white elephant into a thing of beauty and will be a star for the downtown. Ifyou look at all oft the work that has been completed, all of the work has been excellent. Would like to give my complete support to Mr. Naziri. Reason for the windows int the rear of the building is to maximize the visibility of the river. By replacing windows will be better energy efficiency. Looking forward Mayor, Mac Hodges, came forwards and was sworn in. Stated the following in support of Mr. Naziri's project: Iti is important for Washington and the history oft the building to have it restore. People are coming into the Downtown spending money to refurbish buildings. Ift the Commission could allow for Mr. Naziri to cut out just he windows. This would help keep the project moving Chairman, Cheri Vaughn asked for any questions. There were no questions and was Cheri Vaughn, agrees to what Mr. Naziri is proposing especially since this portion of the building was an addition. It would make since to let Mr. Naziri to cut out the openings then for him to come back to the Commission with more detail information. Colleen Knight, Mr. Naziri would follow the original building for the placement of the windows. Kathieen Couch, clarify, just the window cut-outs on the side and ont the back. Rebecca Clark, yes justt the windows on the side and on to see the completion of the building. forward. brought back to the table. Revised: October 7, 2019 Page7of12 the back. Ms. Couch, clarification, the windows and doors and thati is where the existing doors are on the second floor of the addition. Rebecca Clark, the doors are located on the first floor. Anything is better than what is current. Mr. Naziri's proposal is totally reasonable. Karen Mann, trying to understand how to make the motion. Discussion continued concerning how to word the motion. Rebecca Clark made the following motion: Imove that the Historic Preservation Commission grant a Certificate of Appropriateness to INA LLC. to make the above changes on the property located at 157 West Main Street. Referencing the following items: A, D,E&F. This motion is based on the following findings of fact: the application is congruous with the Historic Preservation Commission Design Guidelines, specifically Chapter 3.4 Windows and Doors, 3.91 Rear Elevations, and 3.10 Architectural Details. Colleen Knight seconded the motion and all voted 7 in favor and Oopposed. 4. Ar request has been made by the City of Washington for a Certificate of Appropriateness to replace the clerestory windows on the property located at 108 Gladden Street. Mr.. Jonathan Russell, City Manager, representing the City of Washington, came forward and was sworn in. Mr. Russell stated the following: The City of Washington is requesting approval to replace the clerestory windows at the Civic Center. This request is unique in that the this is a public facility that is used for social events. This issue had come before the Commission in October of 2018. The existing windows do not appear to be original to the building. The request is consisting of a piece of glass sandwiched between: strips of wood with an aluminum alloy frame. Due to the location of the windows it is difficult to examine the existing windows. The City does subsidize the use oft the facility greatly to help the community and the Downtown area. Alternative materials have been used in other locations due to the type of facility and the location. Scarlett Boutchyard, does Double Hung Window (company that performed the inspection) offer repair or restoration work. Mr. Russell, the cost is almost the same for replacement or repair. Ms. Boutchyard, Carolina Windows and Doors is the provider that you proposed to do the replacement, do they provide a repair or restoration other than an aluminum window, because it looks like Double Hung Window offers an alternative. Mr. Russell, with the aluminum you: are able to get a narrow frame that would replicate the existing window and with Double Hung Window was not able to replicate the existing window. Rebecca Clark, you would ber replacing a replacement window because there are not records of what was originally installed. The Cityi is wanting to keep the look that is currently installed instead ofr replacing with plywood. Mr. Russell, yes, there are no character defying elevation, there are a lot of varying opinions. Chairman, Cheri Vaughn asked for any questions. Kathleen Couch, clarification, the frame is aluminum and the window is wood., Mr. Russell, what would be holding the glass is aluminum inside a wooden frame. Ms. Couch, would you be able to see the aluminum? Mr. Russell, you would be able to see some of the aluminum on the edge of the glass. The aluminum would be covered in ai texture enamel. Ms. Couch, but the majority of thei frame would be wood. Mr. Russell, iti is about 50/50. Ms. Couch, do you have a picture oft the trim of the original windows? Staff, no, could not locate any pictures. Karen Mann, didn't Double Hung Window mention in the report what was original. Mr. Russell, they had some: speculation what was there but, what is currently installed Revised: October 7, 2019 Page 8of12 is about 151 to 20 years old. They struggled to even call it a window. Double Hung Window wanted to call it plate glass sandwiched. Ms. Mann, has a third story window andi if she was having to replace the window she would have to replace with wood. Why should the City not have to the: same? NOT AUDIBLE. (1:14:02) Cheri Vaughn, thel building is not a contributing structure. Rebecca Clark, the building has already been impacted and ify you are change the windows and do not know what the original window you don't know what type of window to purchase for the replacement. Mr. Russell, contacted the North Carolina School of Government, the state Statute that gives the Historic Commission authority, and quoted State Statue 106A-40.9, Section. A. Ms. Couch, that is from the School of Mayor Pro-tem, Virginia Finnerty, came forward and was sworn in. Stated that she attended at workshop with. John Wood and during the workshop Mr. Wood stated that ify you could not tell what the original structure was you could use alternative materials. Ms. Finnerty, directed to staff that they could call Mr. Wood anytime that they would like. Karen Mann, asked even in an historic building. Ms. Finnerty, yes. Ms. Mann, found that hard to believe. Ms. Finnerty, Mr. Wood said that ifit was not financially noti feasible and you could not determine the original it would be okay to use alternative materials. Ms. Finnerty Johnathan Russell, began speaking again presenting the application and answering questions. The train depoti in question is very similar to the one located in Richmond, Virginia and at that location they used alternative materials. Also, the one built in Wilmington was constructed the same. Both buildings were constructed within 10 years ofe each other. Both buildings were used as events space. (NOT AUDIBLE) Karen Mann, did you place vinyl windows in that building. Mr. Russell, (NOT AUDIBLE). Colleen Knight, he said that they did not use vinyl windows, alternative materials in the building. The proposed window is a wood frame with a small piece of aluminum holding the glass, and the aluminum will be coated in a texture aluminum. It is not an aluminum or vinyl window; iti is basically a wood window with an aluminum band. Scot Craigie, the window isa wood window with an aluminum sash. Kathleen Couch, is it like a storm window that would have aluminum then placing in a wood frame. Ms. Russell, the frame iswood andi the glass has aluminum around the edge. Ms. Mann, thei information that was presented looks the windows are aluminum windows. Mr. Craigie, that is the sash not the frame. Usually the window is the wood frame around the sash. The proposal is that the sash that is holding the glass is aluminum and the window frame is wood. Ms. Mann, it says that you are replacing any deteriorated wood, it seems al little confusing. The Double Hung Windows look more to what the design guidelines require. Mr. Craigie, the number of windows differ from application to what is currently installed, counted 154 windows. Mr. Russell, thank you for Chairman, Cheri Vaughnasked" forany questions. There were no questions and was Scarlett Boutchyard, the proposal is really replacing sashes with sashes. Rebecca Scot Craigie made the following motion: Imove that the Historic Preservation Commission grant a Certificate of Appropriateness to the City of Washington to replace the top clerestory windows on the property located at 108 Gladden Street. This motion is based on the following findings of fact: the applicationi is Government not from the State Preservation Commission. returned to the audience. making this aware. brought back to the table.

Second Motion: Kathleen Couch made the following motion: Imove that the Historic Preservation Commission grant a Certificate of Appropriateness to the City of Washington to replace the top clerestory windows on the property located at 108 Gladden Street. This motion is based on the following findings of fact: the application is congruous with the Historic Preservation Commission Design Guidelines, specifically Chapter 3.4 Windows and Doors, 3.5 Roofs, and 3.8 Upper Facades. The application is not totally congruous with the Historic Preservation Commission Design Guidelines; this isa unique situation due to the original items int this location are undetermined. Scarlett Boutchyard seconded the motion and to be voted on as the was that it was presented. Motion Failed. all voted 7 in favor and 00 opposed. B. Minor Works 1. Karen Mann made a motion to approve all minor works. Kathleen Couch seconded the motion and all voted 7i in favora and 0 opposed. VII. Other Business A. Open Public Discussion 1. Ms. Virginia Finnerty returned to address the Commission. She asked for clarification on the removal and trimming oftree in the Historic District. During the hurricane a main limb came off of one of Ms. Finnerty trees. She consulted an arborist that teaches at ECU and isar member of the National Arborist, he came to Ms. Finnerty's home to assess her tree. Ms. Finnerty was informed that the tree must bei trimmed, if not the tree would rot and the tree would be destroyed. Ms. Finnerty called at tree removal company to have the tree trimmed and he asked where was located. Ms. Finnerty gave him her address and he asked ift that was int the City of Washington Historic District. She replied yes. He informed Ms. Finnerty that he would not be able to perform any work on thet tree unless yous go before the Historic Commission to get approval to trim the tree. Ms. Finnerty did not know anything about what he was saying. The gentleman informed Ms. Finnerty that she would need to get approval or he would not come and trim the tree. Scarlett Boutchyard, youd only need to come before the Commission for removal of at tree not for trimming a tree. (NOT AUDIBLE) Ms. Mann, asked Ms. Finnerty who told her differently, she would nots say, but that he was told. Kathleen Couch, stated that he was misinformed. Rebecca Clark, as per the guidelines you as a property owner you are required to property maintenance and to prune your trees. This is not al Minor or Major Works. Ms. Boutchyard, recommended that he call the city. Staff, stated that it has been the policy that tree trimming within thet Historic District will need to have a Minor Works approval. Ms. Boutchyard, asked why, the guidelines only say removal nothing about trimming. (NOT AUDIBLE-TOO MANY COMMISSIONERS SPEAKING AT ONE TIME) Staff, stated that owners were trimming trees to the point where thet tree needed to be removed. This has been a practice since staff started work with the City of Washington. Ms. Finnerty, people are going to take down a treei if they want to take down at tree. She does not think that it is reasonable to ask people to come in to get permission to trim their landscaping. It is known were in the book. Ms. Mann, some people have trimmed trees tot the point Revised: October 7,2019 Page 10of12 where the tree does not reasonable at tree. Actually the City has done some of that. Ms., Finnerty, we: should have some say in what is to be done with our property. Ms. Mann, told Ms. Finnerty to call Wayne Woolard to. start trimming her landscaping. Rebecca Clark, asa City Council member and the City is asking for something that is not in our guidelines, we as a Commission cannot make a decision on that, they would need to go before the Council. We are quasi-judicial and we do not have any authority to tell anyone not to something. Ms. Boutchyard, if the cityi is requiring this to be al Minor' Works to get approval to trim at tree, we cannot tell the city that they are wrong. Ms. Finnerty, isi it written anywhere. Staff, this has been since the beginning ofs staff's employment. This is something that was put in place during the last Planning Director tenor. Ms. Finnerty, ifit Scott Craigie, back in August someone came before the Commission wanting to remove a dead tree. According to the guidelines they should not have had to come before the Commission. It: should have been a Minor' Work. Ms. Boutchyard, removal is supposed to come before the Commission. Rebecca Clark, people are having to pay a $50.00 application fee to come before the Commission for something that is not required that is bad on the Commission. This is something that needs to be addressed. Karen Mann, directs to Staff1 that it would be nice to give staff the power to make the decision sO that the public would not have to come before the Commission on this item. Staff, ift this is something that the Commission would like to proceed with, then it would need to be written up and approved by the Historic Commission and then presented toi the City Council for final approval. Ms. Clark, would this be something that we would vote on to ask staff to complete? Staff, staff would come up with the wording and present it to the Commission for approval.
