will match the adjacent house next door. Steve said that they took the recommenda ons from the Board
and reduced the massing and changed the garage to look more like a garage instead of an element of the
house. Clemens said that nothing they are doing looks bad and Koepf agreed, he thought it was much
improved. Childs said he thought the composi on and massing looked good but thought they should
simplify the hood on the garage.
