REQUESTED ACTION: Approval of Certificate No. HDC R2025-0069 ZONE: R-55 (Single-Family Detached) CONTRIBUTING: Yes ZONING ANALYSIS: The applicant is seeking retroactive Historic District Commission (HDC) approval to install a fence. The fence is flat board style, made of wood, and six (6) feet in height. The applicant has already installed eighteen (18) feet of fencing, including a gate, between the house and left property line, and fourteen (14) feet of fencing along the left side oft the property from the top of the driveway towards the backyard. 1 The applicant has also installed eighteen (18) feet of fencing between the house and the right property line, and twenty-four (24) feet along the right-side property line towards the backyard. The new fence connects to an existing fence that runs along the back property line and partially down both sides oft the property from the backyard towards the front yard. There is an existing 3.5-foot-tall white picket fence on the front left and right sides that stop where the new wooden fence begins, SO no fencing is back-to-back. DESIGN GUIDELINES EXCERPT: Sec. 20-26.16. - Fences. The construction of fences separating yards is common throughout the Historic Districts. Fence heights are limited by the Zoning Regulations and, while the Historic District Commission may authorize afence lower than the maximum (e.g. for consistency with the fence on a neighboring property), it cannot approve. fencing higher than the Zoning Regulations allows. In all cases any decision made by the Planning Commission overrides the decisions of the City of Laurel Historic District Commission. The finished side of the fence should always face outward, awayfrom the lot, area, 07 structure which itsurrounds. Fences in the frontyards shall be at the property, or at the building line ofthe front facade. The use oftraditional painted picket fencing in front yards is acceptable. Solid flat-board fencing ofo any height is not permitted in the front yard. The use ofchain-link fencing is discouraged as being least compatible with the historic environment and allowed only in exceptional circumstances. The installation of a fence beside an existing fence is viewed by the Commission as not in keeping with the character of the neighborhood, as well as a potential maintenance problem. The Commission will not approve such installation. The Historic District Commission permits specific fence types on a case-by-case basis, the specific fencing permitted depending on surrounding properties and the architectural character ofthe neighborhood. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Photos of new fence 2. Photo of house 3. Dimensions of fence RECOMMENDATION: The proposed actions requested by the applicant appears to meet the requirements established in the City of Laurel's Unified Land Development Code, including the design criteria listed in the Design Guidelines ofthe City ofLaurel Historic District Commission.

These areas include a considerable number ofsigns, which taken in total, affect the overall visual quality and appeal of the Historic District. (2) While size, scale, and location ofsigns are regulated by Zoning Regulations, the Historic District Commission, in considering the overall appearance of the sign, including the general design, materials, and color, may apply stricter standards.

Telephone numbers, Internet or e-mail addresses, logos, symbols, slogans, and brand names may be no larger than three (3) inches in height. (4) Design. Allowing originality and style while not creating a discontinuity within the rest of the streetscape can be achieved by close attention to the continuity ofn mounting location (sign band), materials, and other such qualities. (5) Materials, colors, andstyle oflettering. These three (3) elements ofeach sign. should reflect compatibility with a building 's design and use as well as the appropriateness ofthe sign's 2 texture and material in relationship to the building.

The applicant proposes adding a total of 580 square feet on the west side oft the property. This addition will consist oft two stories. The additional dimesons will be - 25'-9" x 11'-6" (590 square feet). The addition will be an additional office space and powder room on the first floor. The second floor will consist of a walk-in closet, full bathroom, and a laundry room. The material ofthe proposed addition will include Hardie Plank Clapboard Siding in Wickam Gray with an Asphalt Roofi in the color of Slate.

The proposed exterior door will have a natural wood finish with a top lite to host stained glass to match the existing transom. DESIGN GUIDELINES EXCERPT: Sec. 20-26.12. - Colors. The commission does not dictate what colors an applicant may use but is concerned that the colors selected be appropriate for the structure and its neighborhood. The only guideline for the application ofo color in either residential or commercial districts is that the colors should be historically appropriate house colors. This refers to the colors that date to an 2 appropriate period and that go together in a compatible fashion. Samples ofsuch color chips are on file in the Department ofCommunity Planning and Business Services at the Laurel Municipal Center, 8103 Sandy Spring Road, Laurel, MD, 20707. In commercial districts, the building and the block should be considered to achieve a compatible application ofcolors. Sec. 20-26.14. - Doors and entrances. The entry of a structure is a focal point and should receive special attention. Replacement doors should be compatible with the architectural style of the structure. Typical doors in Historic Districts are constructed of either wood or metal and may be paneled. A combination of panels and glass, full-light glass (especially in commercial establishments), a number oflights (panes) in a-wood 07 metalj frames (such as the 15-light French door), flush, louvered, paired doors, sliding patio doors, storm doors, or screen doors are some suggestions. Storm or screen doors should be the same size as the main door and be compatible in appearance. Ofien the door is part of an embellished entryway consisting of the door(s), sidelights, transoms, columns, pedimental trim, or recessed entry. However, the size ofsuch entrances should be in keeping with the scale ofthe building. Their removal or replacement by simpler entryways has been discouraged Sec. 20-26.24. - Windows. a. Openings in the mass of the structure give further definition by their specific style: double-hung (single or multiple panes in each sash), casement, sliding, and specialty units (such as round, half-round, hexagonal, picture windows, or combination of types). Windows should be consistent with the style of architecture ofthe structure. b. The preservation ofhistoric windows is encouraged by the Commission. To allow flexibility in achieving energy efficiency, the use ofvinyl 07 aluminum "clad" units is permitted. C. The use of imitation muntins (separators between windowpanes) which do not resemble the original historic windows is discouraged. Sec. 20-26.28. - Roofs and roofing. (a) For repairs and replacements ofexisting structures, or roofing of new construction, the Historic District Commission considers the following: (1) Style (e.g., gambrel, gable, hip, shed, fat, authentic mansard); (2) Material (e.g., standing seam metal, slate, wood shingles, asphalt o7 fiberglass shingles, rolled roofing, slag, hot mopped asphalt, tile); (3) Details (dormers, gables, chimneys); (4) Gutters and downspouts; and (5) Color. (b) For existing structures, the Commission recommends replacement in-kind. The color of the material should be complementep)comparibe to the other colors on the structure. 3 (c) Roofs on porches, accessory structures, and building additions should match those on the main or existing structure where possible. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Plans of existing floor plans. 2. Plans for proposed addition. 3. Summary of proposed work with explanation of tree removal. 4. Photos of existing main structure. 5. Photos of proposed specs.
