The Applicant is proposing structural alterations, including minor changes to the building's exterior, for the rehabilitation of the Del Monte Building.

The Del Monte Building is located within an M-2, General Industrial District. (JB) Mr. Jon Biggs presented the staff report for 1501 Buena Vista Avenue for consideration of the Certificate of Approval for exterior alterations for future uses of the Del Monte Building, which is an historic monument. Staff recommends approval of the application. Vice Chair Miller invited the architect to speak to the item. Mr. Michael Rockhold addressed the board regarding the Certificate of Approval and reviewed the phases of the rehabilitation process and spoke to the first steps to be taken in the first phase of the construction. He briefly talked about the historical status of the Del Monte Building. The Board requested that all the windows be reinstalled by a certain date and that all openings be water tight to prevent weather damage. The Board also asked for clarification regarding the sandblasting of the existing brick. Mr. Christopher Buckley was happy to see the project moving forward. He was surprised that the Board would be presented with only one phase without a status of the overall project. He expressed concern that the Board is being asked to make a decision without knowing how the project will turn out as a whole. He was concerned that this would be an "open ended" approval and suggested that the board set a date as to when the windows would be reinstalled. Mr. Stuart Rickard asked about the roofing material and wanted clarification regarding the solar panels. He also expressed concern about the covers for the roof openings and wanted to make sure they will seal the openings. Board Member Iverson wanted to make sure that the updates from the National Park Service (NPS) were provided. She also expressed concern as to how the building would be secured during construction. She wanted one of the conditions of approval to be that sandblasting would not be done on the brick or any other porous surfaces. Ms. Melissa Gaudreau clarified that sandblasting would not be done on any brick or porous surfaces.
