The site/building inspection involved visual examination: of the crawl space / basement, exposed. framing, exterior veneer, and interior of the structure. A detailed inspection of every structural member was not performed nor were any invasive or destructive testing. Also, while building codes may be referenced in this report, code compliance was not the focus of the inspection or this report. The following are my observations and recommendations for addressing the identified items.  Background Information  The two story former single family residence located at the address above is wood framed by conventional platform framing methods. According to the city's representative, Mr. Rodman, the main structure was built sometime in the 1930's as a residential home with a small addition added to the rear later on as well as various renovations and repairs throughout the years. The exterior consists of brick veneer and asphalt shingle roofing. At the time of inspection, Mr. Rodman was present and provided access to the interior of the structure. The structure is located in the historic district of the City of Washington and had been recently  (within the past several years) occupied as office space.  Observations  1. A pest report provided by the city indicated the presence of termites when inspected in 2014 at which time was treated. There is extensive termite damage to several floor joists and girders visible in the basement & crawlspace that extends to the subfloor. 2. The existing asphalt shingle roofing has deteriorated past it's service life. Several shingle tabs are missing or curled. Also the roof flashing and sealant no longer prevent 3. The roof framing members (rafters and ridge beam) appear to be in overall good condition with the exception of the roof sheathing. There are several areas of the main roof sheathing that are rotten. The front and rear porch roof portions were not visible 4. The portion of the brick chimney visible in the attic also shows signs of water intrusion 5. The exterior brick veneer appears to be in overall good condition given it's age. There are several areas where cracks in the mortar joints have been repaired over the years evident by the mismatched mortar color. Due to the age of the structure, it does not  water intrusion in several areas.  during inspection. as well as mortar deterioration.  1of10    Structural / Building Evaluation 415W2 2nd St. Washington NC  McLawhorn Engineering Project No. 1703  January 30,2017  appear the veneer is secured to the structure by brick ties or other means of 6.

In several areas on the second floor, the ceiling plaster has detached from  the lattice and collapsed. of hardwood 7. The interior flooring consists with tile flooring in the bathrooms. wood flooring has signs damage in several areas, especially on the first floor. 8. The building's mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems were in operation at the last time of occupation, but have all been extensively repaired over the years. Several code violations regarding these systems were visible at the time of inspection. No testing of these systems were performed.  throughout the majority of rooms  The flooring  of termite and water said to have all been modified and  Recommendations / Conclusion  Due to the current condition of the structure, extensive repairs would be required to safely 1. All wood members including joists, girders, rafters, and sheathing that are damaged are to  reoccupy the building. These repairs would include but not limited to:  be removed and replaced.  including all flashing.  2. The asphalt shingle roof is to be replaced in it's entirety cracked or 3. The brick veneer and mortar joints shall be repaired where veneer shall also be sealed to prevent future water intrusion. 4. The interior plaster requires extensive restoration. The shifting of building lifting / moving / setting operation will likely also cause additional cracking of the plaster. 5. Replacement and refinishing of damaged hardwood floor sections. 6. No testing for hazardous materials (including lead paint and asbestos) were performed during the inspection, but should be tested for before beginning any demolition or Relocation of the structure would have several challenges that would have to be considered 1. Height and width limitations of roadways to new location as well as weight limitations of as well as traffic control during the move. move. In some instances, the brick veneer can be supported by the structural mover and left on during move; others, to determine removed and replaced once moved. Further evaluation by mover is required 5.

The following report describes my observations and includes recommendations for addressing deficiencies My site evaluation involved only a visual examination ofreasonably accessible areas except as may be specifically discussed within the body oft the report. This is not al building inspection or building code compliance inspection. While we: may comment on any building code or other untoward conditions that we observed, they are: not the focus of this investigation. Unless otherwise specifically described below, wel have not performed any destructive or invasive testing or procedures during the investigation.  that were identified.  Background Information  Thel house is a 2-story wood framed structure with brick veneer. There is a partial basement under the left side oft thel house and a crawlspace under the right side. There was a covered porch on the right side oft the house that was later enclosed and a more recent small addition with vinyl siding at the rear, which covers the access to the basement. The 1st floor is framed with rough-cut 2x8 joists at 16" on center with run from front to rear oft the house. They are supported by a center 6" wide x 8" deep timber girder that runs from left to right, about mid-way between the front and rear walls. The roofis framed with rough-cut 2x8 rafters at 24" on center with 1" sheathing boards on top and shingles above. Iunderstand A termite inspection was donei inl March of2013 by Turner Pest Control, Inc. and the report provided by John) Rodman with the City ofWashington (Turner Pest Control Order dated 3/21/13) indicates some termite damage was observed at the front oft the basement and crawlspace areas, the left side oft the basement, and the right side of the crawlspace area near the right side porch that was enclosed. I examined these areas as part ofmy investigation. The report indicates that these areas were treated at  that the house was built in the 1930's and has been vacant for 3 to 4 years.  that time.  Structural Evaluation 415 W. 2nd St, Washington, NC  1of14    Obseryations/Recommendations  Ivisited the site on January 12,2017 at approximately 9:00 AM under clear skies with temperature in the 60's. You and several others were present at the time ofmy visit. Following is a summary ofmy observations, along with general recommendations for addressing problems that were identified. For reference, left and right directional references assume one is facing the front oft the house. The front 1. Iexamined the basement and crawlspace areas and found a few joists with termite damage; at the chimney and at the left side band joist at the basement wall (see photographs 4 and 5). The damaged areas appeared to be relatively limit. The joists are supported by a center 6x8 timber girder that runs from the left basement wall across the basement and crawlspace and to the right side main wall. The girder has damage along its full length (see photographs 6 and 7). The 2. There are a few areas with rafter and roof sheathing damage. There is a stained rafter with some adjacent stained sheathing boards near the right rear corner (sec photograph 8) which appears to be the result ofa roofleak. The area was not wet sO the leak may have been repaired. The plaster ceiling below this area at the 1St and 2nd floori is damaged but also was not wet (see photograph 21). The wood damage does not to appear to be severe enough to: require replacement. It is recommended that the roofbe evaluated and repaired ifneeded to prevent further damage. There is a rafter on the right side oft the roof near the center with minor termite damage but it is not extensive enough to require replacement of the rafter (see photograph 9). Also, there are signs oft termite damage to the sheathing boards near this area, as well as some areas where the sheathing boards are crack/broken (see photographs 10 and 11). The sheathing boards in these areas should be repaired. It is assumed that ifthis house is renovated, the roof shingles will probably be replaced. Ifthis is done, the sheathing boards can be examined more 3. The interior plaster ceiling and wall finish is cracked in many areas (see photographs 19 and 20). This is probably the result of moisture changes ini the house and expansion/Shrinkage oft the 4. There are some cracks in the brick veneer at the front wall, rear wall, and one location at the left wall near the front corner (see photographs 12-17). There is also a hairline crack above the interior door between the main house right wall and the I-story enclosed porch area (see photograph 18). These cracks appear to be the result ofminor foundation settlement. Some of the cracks have been previously repaired and have re-opened slightly (about 1/16" maximum width) and some have not re-opened. This is not a significant structural concern because the brick does not load bearing. However, they should be repaired toj prevent moisture infiltration. The cracks should be repaired by removing loose/cracked mortar and re-pointing with new 5. Iwas not able to examine the 2nd floor framing because it was covered in all areas.

The most siginificant damage is the deteriorated 1st floor girder described in item 1 above. The damaged areas described above should be repaired as indicated. The house is not structurally unstable or in danger ofcollapse and it is safe to enter the house to examine it and perform repairs. However, the house should not be occupied until the damaged floor framing is repaired. Please contact mei ify you have questions or need further assistance.  Sincerely,  irg Mark S.

The Washington Historic District is recognized by the United States Department of the Interior for its historic structures and unique character. That department's National Register of Historic Places contains an inventory of structures located in the District and denotes varying degrees of significance of individual structures. The National Register conferms that,, historically, residential structures were constructed of wood and commercial/institutional structures were constructed of brick or  y  other masonry elements.  To determine if aluminum or vinyl sidings are appropriate materials for use on existing structures in the Historic District, the Historic Preservation Commission has reviewed applicable information provided by the North Carolina Department of Archives and History, The Preservation Foundation of North  9p  CITY OF WASHINGTON  P. 0. BOX 1988 (919) 946-1033  WASHINGTON, N. C. 27889    Carolina, Inc., and the National Trust for Historic Preservation and has inspected structures within the District on which artificial sidings have been installed. Following this review and inspection, the Historic Preservation Commission makes the  following findings:  1. The application of artificial siding over wooden siding may cause moisture retention and eventual deterioration. 2. The insulation value of artificial siding and "insulation" applied behind the siding is minimal. 3. Artificial siding may. cause fire to burn longer and be 4. The techniques for installing artificial siding are likely to cause permanent damage to the original siding 5. Artificial siding prevents detection of deterioration of original materials that have been hidden from view. 6. The textural and visual quality of artificial siding is neither consistent nor compatible with the recognized textural and visual characteristics of the various siding materials historically used in the District. 7. The physical characteristics of artificial sidings do not allow the flexibility to duplicate moldings, curved corner boards, raised panels and other architectural elements,thus contributing to the loss of integral architectural details which are characteristic of 8. When artificial siding is installed on some surfaces with original architectural details left exposed (i.e. window/door casings, cornices, corner boards, etc.). the  more difficult to extinguish. over which it is installed.  buildings in the District.  incompatibility of characteristic materials and artificial materials diminishes the historic character 9. Inappropriate, uncharacteristic and incompatible materials and inappropriate alterations or loss of architectural details adversely affect the character and  and integrity of the structure.  environment of the Historic District. In consideration of these findings, the Historic Preservation Commission has determined that aluminum and vinyl  77    artificial sidings are not appropriate materials to be used on structures of historic significance and on structures that contribute to the significance and character of the Historic District. The use of artificial siding will be deemed inappropriate. on any structure designated "contributing" as  of Historic Places' inventory of  denoted in the National Register the Washington Historic District.  Any requests for a Certificate of Appropriateness for the installation of artificial siding on structures of no historic significance. will be reviewed by the Historic Preservation Commission on a case by case basis. Generally, such a request may be appropriate if the structure is listed in the National Register of Historic Places' inventory as non-contributing". These designations denote no historic significance or detracting  from the historic character of the District.  In reviewing artificial siding requests for these  w  structures, the Commission will follow the guidelines established under Section 27-42.1 of the Washington city Code and will make a determination of the impact on the character of the surrounding  structures and neighbornood.  If the Historic Preservation Commission should grant a Certificate of Appropriateness for installation of artificial siding of a structure with "noncontributing" designations, the  tollowing conditions and safeguards shall be met:  I. That the corner boards for artificial siding be exactly the same width as" the existing corner boards. II. That all window and door casings be built out in a manner which will give the same ratio of proportion between the casings to sidings after coverage as before  ?8    coverage.  III. That drip caps or any other architectural feature be  covered in a manner that will allow for the same curvature and proportion before coverage as after  coverage.  IV. That all porch posts and railing brackets or other architectural detailing shall remain uncovered. V. That all artificial siding shall be run in the same direction as the original siding and that frieze and soffit boards be covered in the same width as which  exists on the structure.  VI. That any detailing covered which is not flush with the siding or surface area must bear the same proportion VII. That the siding contractor must post a bond to carry out items I through VI pending final certification of the Building Inspector, in an amount equal to the contracted price of the siding work undertaken. If the contractor is owner of the structure on which the siding is being installed, a minimum bond of $3,000 is  after coverage as before coverage.  required.

This motion is based on the following findings of fact: the application is congruous with the Historic Preservation Commission Design Guidelines, specifically Chapter 3.7 Storefronts. Her motion was: seconded 2. Ar request has been made by Ms. Karen Tripp for a Certificate of Appropriateness to replace wooden windows with vinyl windows on all elevations of the property located at 625 East Main Karen Tripp came forward and was sworn in. Ms. Tripp stated that shei is asking for a Certificate of Appropriateness to replace damaged windows at her home. She stated that the work has already been done and she would like to explain the circumstances involved and ask for the Commission's understanding, compassion, and forgiveness. She: stated that documents that she has provided show that she purchased her home in 2007 and the windows were in very poor shape. Ms. Tripp stated at that time she was never told that there was a Historic Commission with) guidelines. She stated that she did know about them later on through an incident withl her neighbor where she had to come before the Commission twice and to the Board of Adjustment. Ms. Tripp explained that the experience was not very nice. She stated that when she: started to see water damage in the walls of her home, she felt she only had two options: Option 1. Hire someone to repair them (which is not an easy job) and she was only able to find one person in the area who would do thej job with an estimate of $200 to $250 a window and as much as $500 a window if rotting wood. was found. Ms. Tripp explained that the previous owners had removed the storm windows and left them in aj pile in the back yard which made it hard to put them back into the windows. So, on top oft the cost to repair the windows she would also have to purchase new storm windows and they run about $100 a piece. Ms. Tripp stated that this brought the grand total to repair the windows to $300 or as much as $600 a window given the condition of! her windows. Option 2. Accept the help from friends andi replace the windows and inc doing SO eliminate the need for storm windows, making her home more attractive and energy efficient. Ms. Tripp stated that because she is on a fixed income she had to take in account the fact that repairing them would also include the cost of annual maintenance, so replacing them seemed like a logical choice. Ms. Tripp stated that she was then faced with the choice of solid wood windows with a cost ranging from $685 to $1,100 per window (which she quickly ruled out due to her budget), the aluminum clad windows which are even more expensive, or vinyl windows which start at: about $190 each. Ms. Tripp stated that she was not aware of the option of composite windows at the time. Ms. Tripp stated that one would assume that a member of the Washington Area Historic Foundation would not make such a choice, however even though she is for historic preservation she doesn't agree with every rule. She stated that some of the rules prevent home owners from maintaining their home and they fall into disrepair because they do notl have the money to save them. Ms. Tripp stated that unfortunately she had not been successful with prior times when going before the Commission and felt she was trapped between a rock and a hard place. Even though she did not agree, she knew that the general attitude towards vinyl windows was not positive and felt if she asked for a Certificate of Appropriateness and was denied her only choice left would be to have done nothing. Then the damage would continue and potentially destroy her house. She stated that shel loved her house and that was: not going to happen. She stated that she made the very difficult decision to replace the windows without coming before the Commission. She: stated that shei is 76 years old, single, and on al limited income, but rest assure she purchased the best vinyl windows she could. Ms. Tripp explained that the windows that were replaced were not the original wavy glass kind and the replacement happened in fazes and over the span of several years and only replacing the windows that absolutely needed to be replaced. She stated that she also made certain that the design of the new windows matched the design of the old windows. Ms. Tripp stated that due to her tight! budget her friends helped heri install thes windows on the weekends. Shes stated that for 7, years no one noticed that she had replaced the windows, even her preservation friends who  by! Mark Everett and all votedi in favor.  Street.  2    came to her house several times. Since her windows have before an issue she learned from many friends and neighbors that there are several homes in the historic district with vinyl windows and several instances when the Commission has allowed vinyl windows. She then presented pictures of other homes in the district with vinyl windows and discussed some of the homes. She respectfully asked the Commission to allow her the: same consideration. She stated that she did not move into the Historic District because she wanted to destroy it. Ms. Tripp stated that she loves history and feels that it is vital to Washington and historic districts everywhere. She explained that in 2007: she purchased her home for $250,000 and in the last 10 years she has invested what she could with limited resources with thel help ofl herf friends and improved and maintained it. She stated that she honestly feels she has done everything in her power and within her financial ability to preserve it as best as she could. She then sincerely apologized for not coming before the Commission and then asked the Commission members to put themselves in her position and understand whys she acted in the manner she did. Ed Hodges asked. Ms. Tripp an estimate of how many times she has attended Commission meetings to voice her opinion for or against something. Ms. Tripp stated that she has been to meetings and she has presented her ideas, but has not for a long time. She stated that shel has changed her mind about voicing her opinion and does not like to do it. She stated that she doesn't like how people feel when they have to ask for permission to do something to their house. Ed Hodges then asked Ms. Tripp what the status of the Historic District would be if everyone did the same thing as she did and made changes to their homes without requesting permission from the Commission. Ms. Tripp stated that there may not be al historic district but she cannot sayf for sure because she doesn'tknow. Ed Hodges stated that there wouldn't be any reason for the Historic Commission to exist if everyone did work without coming to the Commission for permission. Ms. Tripp stated that she believes there has to be some regulation, but she had such a terrible experience last time she came forward the Commission. She then asked John Rodman to confirm the statement. John Rodman stated that she should not ask for his opinion unless she wanted his honest answer. Ms. Tripp stated that the last time she was before the Commission was to speak against a 92 foot fence that her neighbor put up that blocked her water view and had a terrible experience. Ed Hodges stated that he felt this Commission has been very understanding as far as windows are concerned. He stated that his tendency here is to be very much not understanding with her because of what shel has done. He stated that he felt the Commission would have shown her compassion had she come before them prior to doing the work, instead of thumbing her nose at them and doing whatever she wanted to do. Ms. Tripp stated that she didn't think she thumbed her nose at them, but she really felt like she was going to be told no. Ed Hodges stated that she never gave the Commission the opportunity to work with her. Mark Everett stated that hei is compassionate to people's situations when they have hardships, but it: seems to him if they pick and choose what rules they want to follow based upon whati is in their besti interest or their position at the time, number one that seems a little bit inconsistent and irresponsible as a Commission and undermines completely why they are there. To him if someone comes before the Commission and asks for some leniency based upon a specific circumstance that's one matter, but when someone concisely chooses toi ignore the rules particularly when they have hadi involvementina foundation that is supposed to be pro historic preservation, he sees that as a different matter. Karen' Tripp stated that ift they walk around the historic district they will find that a number of vinyl windows havel been installed. Ed Hodges stated that he is not going to argue that with her. He: stated that she did not give them the opportunity tol look at her project andj just did it on her own. Ed Hodges stated that thej pictures of houses with vinyl windows that Ms. Tripp presented all except for one. he was aware of. Geraldine McKinley stated that every one of those home owners had come before the Commission to request the vinyl windows. Cheri Vaughn asked when vinyl windows have been allowed. in the past. Ed Hodges stated that the Commission looks at each request individually and bases their decision on the condition oft the windows and what they would like to do. Geraldine McKinley stated that they try to keep them off the front façade oft the house. Ed Hodges stated that the Commission was not given the chance to review Ms. Tripp's case or: see the damage to the windows. William Kenner stated that he personally  3    replaced. his windows with wooden windows and: shopped around for pricing and found them for about $150 per window. Ms. Tripp stated that the prices she previously quoted were from Lowes. Mary Pat Musselman stated that she can understand the dismay of some of the Commission: members because Ms. Tripp did this without permission, but when she looks atl Ms. Tripp's house now compared to the way it looked in 2007 and all the work. she has done, along with Ms. Tripp's age she would like to be forgiving. Judi Hickson stated that it is very hard because the Commission is stuck between a rock and al hard place, but Ms. Trippl has been at this ever sense she bought the house. She stated that knowing the situation, she is feeling more forgiving. Ms. Hicks stated that she is very sorry that Ms. Tripp didn'tg give the chance to review the request first. Ms. Hickson spoke about the Commission then facing the issue of setting precedence. She stated that the district already has an issue with people doing work without permission and worries how this discussion will affect this problem in the future. Ms. Tripp stated that the windows make her housel look very nice. Edi Hodges stated that no one is arguing that fact. Mr. Hodges explained. that if everyone in the historic district does their project without presenting it to the Commission and then comes to ask for forgiveness later, there is no point of the Commission sitting there. Ms. Tripp stated that she did understand. Mr. Hodges stated that he felt the Commission would have: strongly considered granting Ms. Tripp's request ifshel had come before them and presented her request properly. Ms. Tripp stated that: she had no confidence that they would grant! her request because ofh her prior experience.  The Chairman opened the floor.  Sherri Moseley came forward and was sworn in. She stated that shei is there in: support of Karen Tripp and then read letters from neighbors and friends, who helped her install the windows, giving Ms." Tripp their support. Ms. Moseley stated that she also helped Ms. Tripp replace the windows and she does understand where the Commission is coming from. She: stated that shei is personally restoring a third house. She stated that they have restored two houses in Ayden, which has no Historic Commission, and the homes in that area for the most part are kept up to date and people try to keep their repairs in keeping with historic preservation. Ms. Moseley stated that there is al lot of work they plan on doing to their house in Washington and she is terrified to come before the Commission. She stated that people are made to feel that they really have no choices. She stated as a new member of the community she does not want to come in making waves, but she does want to be able to love her home and' bring it back to life. Buti ifs she has to doi iti in such al manor where she feels like shel has no sayi in her own] property or how she spends her money then Washington will not have a district because people are not going to be able to maintain their properties. She stated that whether there are buildings standing or not, no one can change the history of this town. She stated that the district can be maintained in a manner where they may not be able to use materials from 100 years ago, but Steve Rader came forward.
