1. Schaumburg 115 East Washington Street Fence-Final
Don Simpson ( Auburn Fence ) said he went back to his client, and they want the 42" fence since they
have small children and a dog. He said that the fence is a legal height, and the same type of fence is
already in the neighborhood across the street. Clemens said he doesn't have a problem with the forty-
two-inch fence and would recommend approving it. Lutz said the same style fence already exists around
the neighborhood. Clemens said its not obstructing the traffic view and Koepf agreed.
Summation-motion by Naylor, seconded by Lutz to revise the motion from the March 21, 2023, meeting
and approve the forty-two-inch fence. Roll Call: Childs-yea, Lutz-yea, Naylor-yea. Motion passed.

clean and patch the holes in the wall where the old sign is before replacing them.

3. Norris 195 South Main Exterior Alterations- Preliminary
Brian Norris (Homeowner) presented plans for this project. He said they want to expand the front porch
to something they can sit out on and enjoy. He said they are also going to bring it out a little further.
Naylor asked if the front would have lattice and said to make it a little narrower. Koepf said the drawings
do not look like they represent the grade. Clemens said that the design drawings need to be signed by a
licensed architect. Childs said that he needs to clean up the entablatures and to line them up with the
columns. He said it would make it cleaner. Clemens said he thought turn post columns would be a better
shape for this house. He said it is square on the top and bottom and turned in the middle. He said to
make the roof a little bigger, suggested 9ft. in depth and to pull things in a little. Koepf said to clean up
the corner boards a little. Naylor said when they put the stairs in, they need to make them the width
between columns.
