we go ok this is the dam and here's a set of three windows and she would like to reuse the room as a bedroom and this bathroom that would take out a window so here is what it looks like it was this picture previously so yes we saw that the windows on the wall currently this is what the windows look like currently and our photoshop version of what it would ok so here's the front of the house arts and crafts and as we talked about last time the back part of the house is a very large addition back here and that was put on here fifty  so i've given you a few things to consider the window isn't part of the original construction but it is the addition significant let's all right as the window of defining characteristic of that edition will removing the window lessen the historic and the information written in the district was first listed has would change because it's fifty years is the significance to because that's what sells it never gets so it could change in your opinion it would be a few guys to decide well you know it's still more than fifty years old it could be we could consider a significant without that it was worthwhile and regardless of whether or not significance their own right shall be retained and preserved ok if you don't realize that that was like the exact wording of the standard yeah yeah just try going on there so you don't have to look it up ye there's a pretty deliberate hierarchy betweens between floors three levels and in this case and here because the traditions were a bit later i don't know if this really holds but what i sort of think don't read this up was that there was more of a formality steward of the house so i just sort of bring that up to sort of make you know in body invite you to do that nuance a little bit i mean you do have this more for formal gang of three on all three sides that was perhaps more of a sunny room at one point there was this symmetrical set of three for the central day and the community casual spacing of everything above suggests more of i don't look up here this is more private space where th ground floor is more you know the river so that's something that may or may not have been in anybody's mind but it's within tradition within your neighborhood stuff sort of a background you know presen has yeah i think it has entertained the significant the level of significance that we were looking for perfect row of a one one quarter with two rows of windows where if one quarter of the panel door steel door with a recess fails with these little overweight and never the hardware don't worry about the hardware so that's what was approved corsi had really done all the shopping so one one quarter so once we handle that that's the equivalent of one of these panels so one panel with two layers of breakdowns and as you see and his original one is the significantly more class that's really what he's trying to get to is he wants he wants more glass more glass he wants to look more like that door so he's got the re option for option sorry there's two in steel two different companies this is is not it's not this door it's this one down here which is for even panels the top two would be windows yes yeah so it would be if you can get the same even split the back one is because that's not quite hair from half through but he's trying to get closer so it would be half and half it's a square door again it would two rows of two little windows so you can pass these around since these all came fairly recently then the other option is he can get the same he had sat on  see that i have to decide just one door if you feel that there are other options that are acceptable because price wise again this  both companies door companies point out their great waters likely to pile up against the door rather than drain away from the garage and the cedar door is forty four thirty seven plus five hundred for the opener and the installation necessarily what's going on here this is more sort of speaks to the human form where you'd walk up and look through it this is just sort of like well we have four panels so we broke it is that the cool  because we don't know if the quantity of windows do you think it is or if they just get smaller right or that was it today become more narrow or fewer conference committee next week ok where they are they have to compare what was passed in the house what was passed in the senate and figure out how to balance this out which could be a real problem for preservation happens now is its immediate one year and you get it right away that stretches it out for five years but that's a separate so they kept twenty percent which originally they plan to eliminate and then they were willing to compromise and keep ten percent over five years so now it's back to twenty percent over five years the house bill completely eliminates the tax credit that is federal tax credit so they have to try to balance that out which is a little tough the a lot of the credit apparently is going to send her kassidy a republican from louisiana for keeping the tax credit app twenty percent the national trust and all of us preservationists are they want us to write to our senators tell how much we want the tax credits to preserve and they would love to eventually work that back into the take off the payroll for five years part  what is currently but in our state our senators are the minority but they voted to support the tax credit they wanted that in they voted against this tax cut jobs act but they both support the bar i guess of your representatives at this point representatives to say support but putting tax credits back in that would be the best place to put our pressure ok senate to support reinstating the start tax credit for the state machine so the state of michigan could get their twenty five percent tax credit back this has been a it's it was at this point of course it comes out of committee that we have to what we need to do on this one is convince our senators and representatives right now it's only in the senate but the state senate so convince the state senator which is  have our work for us but on the federal air on the state level it is it is it's looking very good so ok do you want me to write to anybody on your behalf or our regular meeting night so that could contain property owners with weather so that could make for a very long night of training comes after that i don't know how heavy th ok got you down is not going to be there and you've already and i get the emails because karen has but i'm a member of the us tonight and it was passed out to me but all the commissioners also could get e mails if you want some days is a lot of e mail some times i don't who they come from they come from usually people like me staff but there are also commissioners who sometimes jump in with questions and as a  does anyone have any language in your forms or nets that provides a policy procedure for commissioner site visits for cases coming out for a public hearing i'm particularly interested in visits and maybe scheduled by staff rather than simply a commissioner driving by discussion about language and sometimes people will say and bits from their own by laws or their own ordinances as to what applies so this one was from nashville tennessee and then there's bazillion responses i only printed off a couple there's also in the past couple weeks i've had questions on lightning protection mitigation for demolition property swap which was kind of interesting it was somebody on the fringe of the district and they wanted to do a big new development that they thought was appropriate for the fringe but they wanted to convince that developer to buy some vacant property and given this trip which apparently worked so i thought that was really intriguing their stuff and details like flashing demolition abandoned houses there's all sorts of stuff so does anyone who want to receive this i mean you can just delete it what i have to do a better time to read it
