Mike Deming calls the meeting to order.
Certificates of Appropriateness.
180 South St. – 1 Elizabeth St. Richard and Elaine Oughterson. Request to replace one window on the front façade together with repair of the trim.
Rick Oughterson – Pictures show the house and window in question from various angles. The bottom sill is just about flush with the flat roof. Desire is to replace the rotted window and make it a bit shorter and therefore raising it above the roofline to avoid further problems. Pigeon Roofing will replace the window, wood trim, and also silver coat the roof.
Jim Hutchinson – recommends 4000 series window vs. the 3000.
Stephen Selvek – the purpose of this Board is to protect the historic character. This window is not readily seen from the street. Changing the size of the window is needed to remediate a problem. Concerning the vinyl replacement, does not see an issue in this particular instance.
Motion for approval made by Judy Bryant, seconded by Jim Hutchinson. All members vote approval. Motion carried.

Request for various exterior repairs and renovations including in-kind repair to wood columns, repair or replace soffit and dentils, replace downspouts, replace shutters, construct chimney for furnace exhaust, reconstruct front stone steps and repair/rebuild portions of the side porch.
