To consider application #438 filed by Tracie Rohzon for an addition to garage and replacement of clapboards on the main house at 105 Middle Haddam Road.
Ms. Rohzon commented that the boards on the main house are deteriorated and have started to buckle and that there is insect damage. The boards were painted three years ago and it is impossible to maintain. She will be replacing the existing clapboards with cedar clapboard and Tyvek weather barrier. The corner boards are also to be replaced and will consist of mahogany and will be in sizes that will not require cutting and the replacement material will have the same detail and beading as the existing corner boards. This same replacement material will also be applied to the addition to the garage.
