Both the Historic Preservation Commission and the Architectural Review Board agreed to each
submit a collective list of recommendations to the Planning Board within two weeks of the meeting.
Historic Preservation Commission Recommendations:
1. Siding to be replaced with Hardy Board smooth siding. The width from a 6.25” plank
changed to a 5” exposure.
2. All siding, no matter how many layers, must be removed to ensure that windows casings,
facias, rake boards, and corner boards are proud (meaning they project in front) of the siding.
3. If historic details cannot be repaired, they should be replaced in kind with an HPC approved
product.
4. Porch railings should be repaired as required.
5. The railing post on left side of porch steps should be replicated to match existing.
4
6. Porch step risers can be replaced with Azek or approved equal.
7. Open area under porch can be infilled with small lattice in frames to fit.
8. Roof shingle replacement to comply with requirements for the 130 MPH hurricane zone or
use of a compliant metal roof.
9. Provide manufactures specifications and location of HVAC condensers.
Architectural Review Board Recommendations:
1. Increase both the size and number of windows in new buildings to include two additional
windows to the rear elevation of each unit, add 4-6 windows to the short elevations, and the
addition of bathroom windows.
2. Provide confirmation of light, ventilation, and egress requirements.
3. Make the first-floor plan reflect the second-floor plan so that they are better aligned.
4. Provide private outdoor space by creating lower porches and upper balconies.
5. Incorporate a new design to include a colonial façade of the new buildings to the street scape.
6. Remove “snap in grills” and shutters and add an appropriate trim to one-over-one double
hung windows in new buildings.
7. Metal roof is the preferred option over a shingle roof.
8. Eliminate outdoor staircases from second floors and replace with a drop ladder or other
option to increase security.
9. Landscape suggestions include using less grass, increasing the use of bushes, and increasing
the number of planting beds.
10. Requesting specific landscape details to include species and caliber of plantings.
11. Suggestion of a passive drainage system and possible rain garden.
