A.“Valley Shore Assembly of God” Design Review
36 Great Hammock Road (Map 20/Lot 158), Residential A District
Applicant/Agent: Marios A. Ellinas
Marios Ellinas presented revised plans dated 9/28/2009 for the proposed addition to the building. These revised plans take into account the suggestions made by the ARB at the 9/14/09 meeting specifically regarding the trim around the windows instead of shutters, which Commission members felt gave the building a residential look, the porch column trim, and the curve and pitch of the roof.
There was discussion as to whether or not the building would look better with shutters or without shutters, and it was decided that the shutters should not be removed, but that where there are no shutters, there be 3 ½” of trim.
MOTION to approve “Valley Shore Assembly of God” Design Review; 36 Great Hammock Road (Map 20/ L 158), Residential A District, Applicant/Agent: Marios A. Ellinas with the following recommendations: the ARB recommends that there be 3 ½” of trim around the windows that have no shutters, they would suggest leaving the oval stained glass window as is, and they would like to see the front porch with the trim which is depicted in the revised architectural drawing which was shown at tonight’s meeting. MOVED by J. Gibbs; SECONDED by K. Snow; IN FAVOR: D. Wight, A. Claffey, K. Snow; J. Gibbs, G. Pendleton; OPPOSED: none. ABSTAINED: none APPROVED: 5-0-0.
