Meeting recap

What happened, drawn from the records published after the meeting. Minutes

The commission held a hearing on the 115 E. Queen St. siding application, swearing in planner Joseph Hoffheimer and applicant representative Aaron Ackley. It found the proposal consistent with the Historic District Design Standards and approved it with conditions, 4-0, including that wood salvaged from the sides and rear of the house go toward matching the front facade before Hardie Board is used on the rest of the house, and that staff approve any replacement PVC trim.

The commission also approved its March 4 minutes, adopted updated Rules of Procedure, and voted to move its June meeting to June 24. Every recorded vote was 4-0; Chair Will Senner was absent.

How the votes went

All votes were 4-0, with Chair Will Senner absent: to approve the March 4 minutes; to find the 115 E. Queen St. certificate-of-appropriateness application consistent with the Historic District Design Standards; to approve that application with conditions; to adopt updated Rules of Procedure; and to move the June meeting to June 24.
