HistoricalAdvisoryBoard | 2009-02-05 | 6 | Mr. Dennis Brighton presented the staff report. He explained the project and why it had gone forward without the Certificate of Approval for demolition. Board Member Lynch expressed confusion by the photos that were attached to the report. She was unsure of what the extent of the damage was due to the fire. She also asked about the windows and what type they are. Mr. Brighton clarified the confusion and pointed out that there have been some changes made to the plans. Board Member lrons commented on the windows and how they are made. Acting Chair Miller asked how the percentage was determined. Board Member Owens asked how the demolition happened without the Certificate of Approval since it was more than 30%. Mr. Biggs clarified that after an inspection was scheduled, it was discovered that the builder had gone beyond the scope of work. Board Member Talbot reminded the board that some of the demolition was because of dry rot and pest problems. Mr. Keith Durden, project manager with Har-Bro Construction, introduced himself and the job superintendent Chris Krzywicki. They explained why they went as far as they did with the demolition. Board Member Owens asked if they were installing the new sheer sheathing to the new building code and doing everything as per the guidelines. He suggested that this implied that they were going to have to do more than 30% demolition. Mr. Krzywicki said that after the demolition had taken place, they realized that more work had to be done than originally anticipated. His understanding was that when they were going through the planning and permit process, everything was taken care of. He said that this was the best way to address the project. Mr. Durden said that when they started on the project, they were under the impression that the planning portion of the process was taken care of and they did not know they needed to go before the Historical Advisory Board. As the project progressed, they realized that it was more than 30% demolition. Board Member Lynch asked about the front elevation of the house and if the same door was going to be put back in place. She pointed out that some of the pictures are inconsistent with the new plans. Minutes of February 5, 2009 6 Regular Historical Advisory Board Meeting | HistoricalAdvisoryBoard/2009-02-05.pdf |
