Mr. Barry Asmus was present and outlined the proposed improvements to the home. Mr.
Asmus indicated that some of the work involved replacing elements which had been damaged
by Hurricane Wilma, and some of the work was to harden the home against future storms
and to make the home more energy efficient. Mr. Asmus detailed the proposed replacement
of jalousie windows and doors with impact windows and French doors, the replacement of the
damaged screen enclosure and driveway and front entranceway awnings, and the removal of
the through -wall air conditioner units with a central air system. In response to questions
posed by the Board, Mr. Asmus indicated that the windows and doors would be white and
that the screen enclosure frame would be dark bronze in color. Mr. Asmus stated that his
color preference for the replacement awnings would be a dark green fabric but if the green
•
were not available, he would use a terra cotta color, similar to what is being replaced. A brief
discussion regarding the area proposed for the air conditioner units ensued, with the Board
being assured that the proposed unit in the front of the home would be adequately shielded
with shrubs or plant materials. At the conclusion of the discussion, Ms. Romanello moved to
grant the Certificate of Appropriateness for the following projects: a) replacement of
jalousie windows and doors as outlined in submitted package, b) elimination of certain
windows, c) removal of through-wall/window air conditioning units, d) replacement of screen
porch enclosure and d) replacement of awnings. In addition, the Certificate of
Appropriateness should stipulate that when central air conditioning is installed, the unit to be
located in the front of the home shall be appropriately screened with landscaping materials;
and that the awning materials should be dark green fabric or if the dark green is unavailable,
a terra cotta color awning should be utilized. Ms. Korman seconded the motion and the vote
was unanimous in favor of the motion.
The August 8, 2006 Historic Preservation Board Meeting was adjourned at 6:50 PM.
