Chairman’s Comments
Chairman Garretson briefly discussed a request by the trustees for the William Steeple
Davis house in Orient to replace windows. Commissioners discussed whether or not the
proposal would require an administrative permit or, if it was exempt as in-kind work.
Commissioners agreed that more information was needed.
Public Hearing
Scofield, 2355 Village Lane, Orient
(SCTM# 1000-26.-1-13). Replace existing metal
shingles on detached garage roof with green asphalt shingles to match existing house and
tool shed.
Richard Gillooly attended the meeting on behalf of the applicant.
o
Commissioner Parker explained that the hearing had been held open so that
o
commissioners could gather more information, visit the property and think about
the proposal.
Commissioner Harper asked Mr. Gillooly when the accessory building was built.
o
Mr. Gilloly noted that the building was built in the 1930s but that the metal roof
was not the original roof.
Commissioner Parker asked if the applicant had gathered any additional bids for
o
the work and Mr. Gillooly said that he had not. He did note, however, that there
are very few places offering the metal replacement roof and that the applicant had
received a bid from the same company who had provided the roof for the Village
House. He said that the applicant had been unable to find a cheaper alternative.
