Applicants were sent letter dated June 2, 2022 that it was noted there was exterior work being done but no record of HARB approval. The old asphalt shingles are/were or indeterminate age (old) and needed to be redone before it started to leak. Replaced asphalt shingles and metal with the metal with metal staying closer to something historically appropriate. The original roof was 1/2"-3/4” Cedar Shake shingles. Only one layer so the metal roof was put overtop of the shingles. o Johey Verfaille and Carlton Hopkins, home owners, will be present to discuss the project.  133 W. Logan Street – Retroactive application for roof replacement. Ms. Thompson went by the project site on July 6, 2022 and spoke with the construction crew about the project not getting HARB approval or a building permit application to do a roof replacement on a four-unit structure in the Historic District. Contractor and property owner were unaware that the property was located in the Historic District and promptly submitted the application and materials. The rear portion of the roof has been complete and the front has been halted until all necessary permits are approved. o Mike Lloyd, Contractor from Money Saver’s Construction, and/or homeowner Veronica Bubb, will be present to discuss the project. Administrative Approval  239 N. Allegheny – exterior paint  439 E. Linn – roof replacement Information/Discussion Items: Old Business:  214 N. Allegheny Street (Bellefonte B&B): At the July 5 meeting, Council approved Mr. Breidenbaugh’s request to allow for the two options he presented to HARB at the June 14th meeting: 1. The original proposal – replace porch and walkway with stamped concrete, eliminating the brick façade from the step risers. 2. All brick-like stamped concrete porch then add flagstone/bluestone on the top. This would show a brick type look in the riser but requires flagstone to be placed on top of the stamped concrete. He cited that he was unsure of projected costs for these two options, but based on what he finds out he would like to have the option to do either, not just what HARB had approved at the meeting. Borough Council approved his request.  128 W. Howard Street (Trinity United Methodist Church) – additional information on quality of materials that was presented at the last meeting.
