The meeting was called to order at 7:30 p.m. by Chairman von Bittner with the following members present: Warren von Bittner, Chairman Maria Temkin, Vice Chairperson Kimberly Logan -Hynes Elaine Franck Absent: Margarita R. Courtney Chairman von Bittner called the Roll and administered the Oath to all who would be giving testimony at the meeting. 1. MINUTES - APRIL 24, 1995 Member Temkin moved to approve the Minutes of the April 24, 1995, meeting as corrected. Member Franck seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. 2. APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Maintenance or repair - paint exterior of house 622 N.E. 98 Street Owner: Dr. Guy E. O'Grady Dr. O'Grady was present to speak on his own behalf. He stated that he had been working on the house for the past fourteen months to do whatever was necessary to preserve the structure of the house. He stated he began to paint with what would best match the antique Cuban roof tiles. Since the house had been painted so many times in the past, it was difficult to determine exactly what the original exterior color had been. He stated he had chosen a color with a hint of red to compliment the roof tiles and to maintain a Mediterranean/Art Deco look with the windows being painted in an almond color accent. He said he had begun the painting without knowing that he needed to first come before the Board to discuss his intentions. Dr. O'Grady passed pictures around for the Board to review which reflected the finished painting of the home. He told the Board that untold hours had been spent just in stripping the windows and getting them to close properly due to the extensive over -painting in the past. He stated that the front door had been sandblasted and lightly sanded. Chairman von Bittner told Dr. O'Grady that his application did not indicate the color he wanted to have approved to paint the house. Dr. O'Grady stated that the color , s .f.r . • Historic Preservation Board Regular Meeting • May 30, 1995 Page Two was a salmon/peach, the windows were almond, and the door was natural wood enhanced with a little reddish or cherry stain. • Member Franck made a motion to approve the Certification of Appropriateness to paint the house as described above by Dr. O'Grady. Member Temkin seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. Chairman von Bittner stated that this motion was approved with conditions, after the fact: 1) the original wood casements to be painted almond, and, 2) the front door to be stained natural provincial. 3. APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Alteration - raise height of garage slab seven inches, replace garage door with French window panels and doorway to match front facade of house 622 N.E. 98 Street Owner: Dr. Guy E. O'Grady Dr. O'Grady advised the Board that the garage doors had a substantial amount of dry rot. The present doors were about thirty years old. A swing -out type would be extremely difficult to maintain. He showed a picture dated 1933 of the original swing - out doors. Dr. O'Grady stated that the garage and rear cottage had probably never been used as a garage, as it would be difficult to drive a car into. What he would like to do was to match the side facade of the porte cochere. He passed around a recent Polaroid of the arched door he found in the house which was two-inch thick Cypress. He used this to replace the redwood door and shutters which had been there. The French panels he used were identical to the Cypress panels he had already installed into the loggia. He wanted to duplicate the look on the garage to match the house exterior as he would not be using the garage as a garage but rather as a storage space for his wood working equipment and other things. The Board reviewed the original blueprints of the home. After discussion with Dr. O'Grady, it was apparent that the renovations he wanted to do would change its entire original look. The garage would probably be used for living and/or maids quarters, but definitely not for a garage. Member Logan -Hynes read Standard 5 and Standard 6 from the Secretary of the Interior Standards for Rehabilitation which standards Dr. O'Grady had not met with what he desired to do with his house. Chairman von Bittner suggested that he make a door that looked like a swinging open garage door with two small lights similar to the 1933 picture and just keep the doors closed. This way the historic integrity of the house could be maintained and Dr. O'Grady could use the inside of this area in any way he wanted. Dr. O'Grady thought this was a good possibility. Member Logan -Hynes desired, at a minimum, to see drawings of what Dr. O'Grady proposed to do with this garage area. She also suggested he explore other design avenues. Chairman von Bittner stated that he p1 Historic Preservation Board Regular Meeting May 30, 1995 Page Three would approve an application which showed doors similar to the 1933 picture with small lights and wrought iron hinges. He also suggested that Dr. O'Grady check with Building and Zoning for approval to turn the garage area into living quarters. The Board questioned Dr. O'Grady about his desire to raise the front garage area seven inches. This renovation was to be done to alleviate water seeping into this area. Chairman von Bittner asked if he had thought about installing half round copper gutters in front of the garage to direct water away from the front area. Dr. O'Grady thought this would detract from the tile roof. The Board determined that seven inches was quite high and wanted to know how Dr. O'Grady was going to do this. He stated that he could brick the seven inches. Member Logan -Hynes asked Dr. O'Grady if he had plans drawn up for this work. He stated that he had not. Member Logan -Hynes advised him that making a new foundation was major work and would need blueprints and a permit. The Board suggested an altemative be sought by Dr. O'Grady. Chairman von Bittner advised Dr. O'Grady that he had two choices with the application. He could either withdraw this item and show the Board drawings of different designs at a future time, or it could be voted on. Dr. O'Grady chose to • withdraw his application. 4. APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Alteration - replace wood jalousies covering screened porch with arched plate glass windows 622 N.E. 98 Street Owner: Dr. Guy E. O'Grady Dr. O'Grady told the Board he wanted to install the windows into the front loggia - porch area because of the severe water intrusion he was experiencing. He had begun the work prior to getting a permit and coming to the Board to seek approval. Chairman von Bittner made a suggestion to install gutters and awnings on the front of the house to solve the problem.. Dr. O'Grady stated that gutters would detract significantly from the tile roof and awnings would cut down on the light entering the house. This was how the house was and it was like a dungeon. Chairman von Bittner agreed that wood jalousies would not permit adequate Tight into the house, but perhaps a screen on the outside, plate glass windows on the inside which could be opened, and a light awning could be installed to allow sufficient light in. Dr. O'Grady did not believe this would be suitable. Chairman von Bittner stated that at the last Board Meeting, the Board had denied an application to Mr. Pruitt and Mr. Schmid because they had wanted to enclose their front porch with windows in a similar fashion. Chairman von Bittner stated that the Board had a standing policy not to allow any owner to enclose a screened porch as this radically changes the appearance of the house. Member Logan -Hynes stated that • • • Historic Preservation Board Regular Meeting May 30, 1995 Page Four she was going to read Standard 2 and Standard 3 of the Secretary of Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. The Board believed that Dr. O'Grady was changing the original appearance of the home too much to meet the guidelines stated in the Standards for Rehabilitation. Chairman von Bittner stated that he wished Dr. O'Grady had come before the Board prior to commencing work on the windows because of the expense he had already incurred with this renovation and because these windows were not appropriate. The pictures did not show any evidence of arches in the front facade and that the openings were in effect rectangular. Member Logan -Hynes mentioned that the stained wood around the windows was also inappropriate. Member Logan -Hynes made a motion to deny this Application for Certificate of Appropriateness. Member Temkin seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. 5. CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS 21 NW 101 Street Owner: Mr. Charles Smith Chairman von Bittner stated that on January 23, 1995, Mr. Charlie Smith came before the Board to obtain an Advisory Certificate to reroof his roof with Cedar shake shingles which was approved. Apparently, Village Hall lost this application, and the Village Clerk asked the Board to redo this certificate. Chairman von Bittner added Mr. Smith's application to the Board's Agenda and asked the Board to approve a Certificate of Appropriateness which Mr. Smith will tum in on the Board's new form. The application is to approve a heavy grade, western Cedar shake, Dade County product controlled approved, for the roof of this home. Since Mr. Smith's certificate had already been approved by the Board prior to designation which was only advisory, this vote would be the actual certificate. Now Mr. Smith needs to go before the Planning and zoning Board and the Village Council to get a variance for this work and cannot get the variance without the approval of this application and issuance of the certificate. Member Logan -Hynes moved to reapprove the Certificate of Appropriateness. Member Franck seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. 6. HISTORICAL PRESERVATION QUESTIONNAIRE Chairman von Bittner handed out a questionnaire from Tallahassee to the Board. He asked that they review, sign and return it to Tallahassee at their convenience. • Historic Preservation Board Regular Meeting May 30, 1995 Page Five 7. NATIONAL REGISTER THEMATIC GROUP II - JENNIER JOVE Chairman von Bittner wanted to share the work Ms. Jove had done for the Board on the Group II designation proposal. He passed out a copy of the proposal to each member and commented on the impressive job she had done. Ms. Jove had covered 37 houses and compiled substantial documentation on each. Chairman von Bittner told the Board that he had submitted the twenty page °Statement of Historic Content" to Tallahassee last week to get a preliminary assessment and there was no specific deadline to meet. He asked the Board how this project should be handled with the Council. Member Temkin stated that the first one was a grant. Chairman von Bittner suggested that after the Board had made their choices, they should go before the Village Council with the Board's recommendation and a proposal. The Board discussed holding a reception and slide presentation at the Library for the City Council and Ms. Jove. They also discussed the importance of giving Dr. Jesus Mendez at Barry University credit for their participation. The Board determined that a deadline of September should be given for each member to have had reviewed and commented on Ms. Jove's work. At the first Fall meeting, the Board would discuss their findings and • what the next step to take should be. The idea of using Barry University volunteers to go through Miami Shores and take pictures of the homes designated was discussed and also the idea of asking Barry University if this could be done through a school project. Chairman von Bittner told the Board that a policy decision needed to be made conceming the home owners who did not want to designate their homes locally. He stated that these people should be encouraged to designate locally so the Board would have jurisdiction for the future. 8. BUDGET/JURISDICTION Chairman von Bittner stated that Member Logan -Hynes had prepared a Budget which he reviewed and offered suggestions. He stated he called Mr. Lubien and was advised that a Budget for the Board was not advisable and had little chance of approval. There was discussion concerning what the Board had jurisdiction to do and that it should the Board's goal to broaden its functions rather than designation of homes and ruling on certificates of appropriateness. The Board believed that it would be a good idea to amend its enabling the ordnance it to allow it to conduct walking tours, trolley tours, etc. Chairman von Bittner stated that he would prepare something, bring it to the Board to review, and then take whatever steps were necessary to obtain the Village Council's approval.
