HistoricalAdvisoryBoard | 2005-08-04 | 2 | ACTION ITEMS: (Discussion/Action) 1. CA05-0008, 1305-1311 Park Street, Applicant: Italo Calpestri for Anita Ng. The applicants request a Certificate of Approval for demolition of previous additions, including an un-reinforced masonry addition, at the rear of an existing one and two story commercial building. The demolition is part of a proposal to replace the previous additions with a new two- story rear addition. The proposed demolition exceeds 30% of the value of the structure and requires a Certificate of Approval pursuant to AMC Subsection 13-21.7. The building is listed as a Contributing Structure in the Park Street C-C, Community Commercial Zoning District. (AT) (continued from 7-7-05 mtg.) Allen Tai, Planner III, briefly reviewed staff report as presented. At the request of the Board at the last meeting staff conducted further research regarding the addition. Staff found no evidence that the addition located at the rear of 1311 Park St. was associated with any significant events in Alameda History. The appearance of the addition does not contribute to the character of the streetscape nor does it possess unique visual characteristics to be considered an important part of the Park Street Historic District. Staff recommends approval of the Certificate of Approval to demolish two additions, including an un-reinforced brick addition at the rear of the property as stated in draft Resolution. There are no speaker slips submitted for this item. Chair Anderson opened Board communications.
