 Brian and Heidi Jones presented the request.

 There was no public testimony.

 chosen.


 Heidi Jones responded that they felt the proposed door matched
 better than the existing non-historic door and that the current door
 leaks.


 Vice Chairwoman Ory asked if they were open to other door styles
 that would match more closely to a front gable style home.


 Heidi Jones noted they would be open to style suggestions for the
 door.

Historic Preservation Commission Meeting Minutes July 28, 2022



 Donna Sack, Vice President & Chief Program Officer at Naper
 Settlement, agreed with Commissioner Brown and Vice
 Chairwoman Ory that the door selected does not seem to match
 other style elements of the home.


 Chairman Jacks noted that the proposed door does not match the
 current style of the home.


 Donna Sack noted they could help staff confirm the new proposed
 door is appropriate to the style of the home.


 Chairman Jacks noted no concern for the Hardie siding.


 Sack noted the applicant should be cautious as to how different
 elements of the home work together and should not introduce
 another style. Sack also noted that the shake siding could match
 depending on what is done with other elements of the home.


 Commissioner Brown commented that if more details and specifics
 on the connection between the improvements and dimensions
 were submitted with the application the Commission may have
 been able to better understand the request.


 Donna Sack suggested the applicant could submit a request for the
 Naper Settlement Research Library to see if they have any available
 historic photos of the home or street.


 Chairman Jacks noted they would not be as concerned with the
 siding without the shake.


 Heidi Jones responded that there are other homes in the District
 with the shake siding.


 Commissioner Fawell stated they liked the proposed shake siding
 because it adds an additional dimension to the home.
 Commissioner Fawell asked what the color of the shake siding will
 be compared to the rest of the siding on the home.


 Heidi Jones responded that the shake siding would be a natural
 cedar and the non-shake siding would be a gray blue.


 Donna Sack noted that from a historic preservation perspective the
 color choices are not accurate.


 Chairman Jacks agreed the siding should all match.

 Brian and Heidi Jones noted they would be ok with removing the
 shake siding from the request.


 Donna Sack recommended doing more homework on how the shake
 siding could be more complimentary to the home.


 Commissioner Wills questioned if they were focusing too much on
 what the residence was like when it was built.


 Chairman Jacks recommended a door with a large windowpane at
 the top and solid wood at the bottom.


 A member of the public noted the door style would be called half
 glass.


 Vice Chairwoman Ory noted that there is something beautiful about
 the simplicity of the home.


 Chairman Jacks asked if the rest of the Commission was ok with
 noting a half glass door in the motion.


 Vice Chairwoman Ory responded that they could leave the motion
 open for multiple options that fit the front gable style door and
 approve the COA tonight subject to staff approval of the new door
 style.


 Kathleen Russell, Community Planner, asked if the Commission had
 any concerns with the same reveal for the siding on all the
 residence.


 Vice Chairwoman Ory responded that the Commission did not bring
 up any concern with the consistent reveal along the façade for the
 new siding.


 A motion was made by Vice Chairwoman Ory and seconded by Commissioner
 Wills to approve COA 22-1098 for the proposed replacement door and new siding
 at 24 North Loomis Street.
