Stated that the cottages would be great and Moss Landing has done a great job on their homes. This is more of an observation. While speaking to some property owners that live in the development, the owners are not aware that changes to the property must be brought before the Commission. Mr. Campbell, has found that owners believe that if their neighbor installed something they must be allowed to install the same structure. Mr. Campbell, is asking that the developer, Jim Wiley, or the Commission or the City remind the property owners that they are ini the Historic District and they do need to Ms. Scarlett Boutchyard, thanked Scot Campbell for the suggestion and agreed this is something that is needed. Scarlett Boutchyard, this would be a good idea for the Commission to send information to the Moss Landing residence. Mr. Jim Wiley, would be happy to support sending information to the residence of Moss Landing along with a co-letter from the development company. This letter would state the importance of bringing changes to their property before the Commission. Mr. Scot Campbell, thanked Jim Wiley. Mr. Campbell states that information has been presented to the development and the development has given approval for the changes and then the property owners proceed with Ms. Rebecca Clark, we (The Commission) have had some oft the home owners come before the Commission and we have given permission for their additions. But some of the newer property owners may not be abiding to the Guidelines.

Arequest has been made by Seldon Taylor, Stocks and Taylor, representing Dr. Andrew McCoy, Owner, of 234 West Main Street, for a Certificate of Appropriateness for the following: a. Tor remove existing rear wall and reconstruct in like materials with wood studs; sheathing; brick veneer; windows and doors. b. Reinstall electrical service, phone services and gas meter. Install roof drainage downspouts int the existing location. d. Install a concrete sidewalk along the rear of the building. Seldon Taylor of Stocks and Taylor, representing Dr. Andrew McCoy, was Mr. Seldon Taylor, wanted to make sure it was known that the owner is Dr. Andrew McCoy. Dr. McCoy has had a structural engineer to examine the rear oft the building. The structural engineer determined that the rear exterior wall has structurally failed and will need to be demolished. The owner is trying to maintain a business and there are also two tenants on either side of the building. They are proposing the following: it appears that there was a veneer made of masonry brick, could not tell when the brick was installed and the brick was painted at some point. A portion of the brick has been removed to see the back brick wall structural damage in the main bearing wall. The proposal is to build at temporary wall inside the existing space and remove the entire rear brick wall. The reconstructed will be a wood stud wall and then reinstall the brick veneer. Will place the three windows in the rear in the same location of similar size. Concerning the aluminum storefront door that is currently installed, it would be replaced with a new aluminum entrance door in the same location. There is also a modern hollow core wood door, with no historic value, going into the rear of one of the tenants. We will replace the door with similar profile but using hard metal. We will be installing a new sidewalk at the rear of the building. All meters will need to be replaced with new meters. Chairman Cheri Vaugh, asked for any questions from the Commission. Ms. Kathleen Couch, are the windows going to be replaced with wood windows or vinyl clad? Mr. Taylor, we proposed vinyl clad. Mr. Taylor, contacted Builders First Source to find out what windows had been approved in the Historic District. Mr. Taylor, was told that the vinyl clad window had been approved for the Annex Building on Second Street. Ms. Couch, as far as she is aware the Commission never approved vinyl clad windows on the Annex Building. Ms. Couch, asked if any of the other Commissioners recall concerning this vote? Mr. Scot Craigie, that request was withdrawn. Ms. Scarlett Boutchyard, they said that they were going to proceed with wood windows not vinyl clad and come back as a Minor' Work. Mr. Taylor, the windows are located on the rear oft the building. The windows are not original tot the building but, are made of wood. Ms. Couch, are you going to replace with six (6) over six (6)? Mr. Taylor, yes, same double hung with six (6) over six (6). Ms. Couch, regarding the chimney, it was removed so that the structural integrity of the building could be evaluated, is that correct? Mr. Taylor, correct, that was removed before Stocks and Taylor saw the building, under the first evaluation by the owner. The chimney was falling down. Ms. Couch, do you have anyi intention of replacing the chimney? Mr. Taylor, the owner prefers not to replace the chimney. Ms. Couch, what would be the reason for not replacing the chimney? Dr. Andrew McCoy, the chimney is not a sown in. functional chimney. Revised: April13,2020 Page 3of6 Staff, swore in Dr. Andre McCoy. Chairman, Cheri Vaughn, asked for any questions. Ms. Rebecca Clark, the sidewalk leading to the rear, are you going to repair the sidewalk and is there a walkway leading from the parking area? Dr. McCoy, the current property adjoins the Presbyterian Church property, which is shown on the tax map in your agenda packets. Currently there is asphalt pavement and a couple of concrete pads and concrete by the door. Mr. Taylor, some of the concrete pads and asphalt will be removed to install a new footing fort the wall. After that is completed we will clean it up and install a new sidewalk on the rear of the building. Dr. McCoy's customers park in the rear of the building. Ms. Karen Mann, you do have clients that park in the rear of the building and will use the rear entrance? Dr. McCoy, correct. Ms. Kathleen Couch, the awning of the back door will the awning be replaced? Dr. McCoy, yes, Icould do a similar awning. Ms. Couch, will the brick be painted. Mr. Taylor, currently the brick is painted, not sure what the Commission prefers. Ms. Couch, believes that if the brick was painted originally, then the brick would need to painted again. Mr. Taylor, most of the projects that Stocks and Taylor have completed downtown have used "Common Brick" and painted a "Common Red." Ift the Commission required that the brick be painted, we would propose to use a Red Common Brick color. Ms. Mann, asked staff what is his thought on painting the brick? But it is her understanding not to paint the brick and in this case part of the veneer has been painted. Mr. Taylor, the entire wall will be removed. Staff, if all of the brick is being replaced there is no point in painting the brick, because brick needs to be brick. Ifit was previously painted and leaving painted brick, it could be seen as matching the existing façade so that you would not have the patchwork. But, you are replacing everything the brick would need to stay as the style of brick that you are using. A brick façade looks better unpainted. Mr. Taylor, the front oft the building will remain painted, but you cannot see both sides at the sometime. Also, the buildings on either Ms. Cheri Vaughn, would you be willing to reconstruct the chimney on the rear oft the building, because the guidelines do call for maintaining chimneys or character defining structures. Dr. Andrew McCoy, the chimney was not original tot the building and was built at the same time as the brick façade on the front of the building. Dr. McCoy, assumes that the chimney was built to vent furnace and is not a functional chimney. It was made of modern brick placed against the existing wall. Ms. Scarlett Boutchyard, what are the two (2) holes coming out of the rear façade? Dr. McCoy, vents for the furnace, below the holes the chimney consists of solid brick and concrete. Ms. Vaughn, were does the air that comes out oft the vents go? Dr. McCoy, for a while they were vented into the chimney and the holes will be gone with the new construction. Ms. Vaughn, the holes were installed when the furnace was installed. Dr. McCoy, not sure when the chimney was installed but, it was tied into the façade that is coming down and was placed over the existing failing wall. Ms. Couch, we are looking at the original brick where the chimney has been removed? Dr. McCoy, yes. Ms. Couch, after you tore off the chimney that is the original brick? Dr. McCoy, yes. Mr. Taylor, the chimney itself was constructed out of the modern brick, not sure why this was done. Ms. Mann, this was a false chimney for looks to hide the two vents that comes out of the wall. Dr. McCoy, alli that is known is that it was built with modern chimney and does not know when the chimney was constructed. Ms. Couch, there is no evidence of a side are not painted. Revised: April 13, 2020 Page 4of6 fireplace ever located inside the building. Dr. McCoy, no, and under the two (2) Ms. Kathleen Couch, the door that is toi the left the chimney in the apex of the roof, is that original? Dr. Andrew McCoy, yes. Mr. Taylor, we are putting that door back ini its existing place because iti is original to the building. Chairman Cheri Vaughn, asked for any questions from the Commissioners. No Chairman Cheri Vaughn, asked if anyone from the public wanted to speak for Chairman, Cheri Vaughn, brought back to the table. Asked for any discussion Chairman, Cheri Vaughn, asked if the Commission wanted to make one motion or break down the items into separate motions. Ms. Karen Mann, thinks that the windows should be replaced with wood windows because they are at ground level and that is what is currently installed. Not sure why the building company advised them of using the vinyl clad windows, but that has no bearing on the Commission. Chairman, Vaughn, asked if they wanted to break the windows out as a separate motion? Mr. Scot Craigie, regarding the windows, if you look in the guidelines at section 3.8.7 it states, "Original windows on upper floors that are located on rear or non-character-detning elevations may be repaired, or replaced with vinyl-clad windows that match the originals in design, size, proportions and detail." Ms. Kathleen Couch, with this elevation and having people going in and out of the building, might be a real elevation and there is a public parking lot and is visible from the church. Ms. Rebecca Clark, all of the buildings downtown are visible from the rear, but we have always treated the rear elevation as the rear of the building. Ms. Vaughn, thinks that if it also faces a main street, Iknow that it is not a main street and even not like an alley. Ms. Clark, it is two (2) parking lots. Ms. Couch, the owners have agreed to do wood windows, sO why would we not just follow what we have done in general and say that you should install wood windows. Dr. McCoy, would like to install vinyl clad windows. Mr. Craigie, was reading from the guidelines section 3.8.7. Ms. Mann, Scot the guideline that you are referring to is talking about the second story, it is not talking about the first floor ofa building. Mr. Craigie, and it also says non-character defining elevations. Ms. Clark, agree with Scot on the windows, the building does not face a street. Ms. Couch, it is al business entrance and people do walk behind the building. Ms. Rebecca Clark, have we determined if this will be one motion or will the Chairman, Cheri Vaughn, sounds like there is some difference of opinion concerning the windows and I believe that we should break the windows out. What is the feeling about the chimney? That is not listed on the application. Ms. Rebecca Clark, the chimney is aiready being removed. Ms. Kathleen Couch, point is that you can see, looking at the picture and from the back oft the building, after removal of the chimney we can now see the original brick. By this we can see that the chimney was not original to the building, weather the chimney has obtained historical significance we do not know, because we do not know when the chimney was added. We should not worry about the vents was filled with concrete. one had any questions. or against the proposal. There were no questions. from the Commissioners. Chairman, Cheri Vaughn, asked for any questions. windows be pulled out for a second motion? chimney. Revised: April 13,2 2020 Page! 5of6 Chairman, Cheri Vaughn, suggest doing two (2) motions, one (1) to cover the majority of the application and one (1) to cover the windows.
