I. CALL TO ORDER

III. DESIGN REVIEW
a. COA #1
Location: 1301 N. Main Street - Downtown Historic District
Applicant: Karen Zimmerman - owner
Project: 1.) Door restored on the south side of building. A window will be bricked in. This window was
added after 1819. These changes are an interpretation of based on the brick work around the building on
the south side and the window front on the south side being inconsistent with the original wood frame
windows in the front of the building.
2.) Removal of gable addition. This gable has no historical significance.
3.) The exposed (west side – after the removal of the gable addition) exterior will be filled in with brick
and the chimney restored. A window will be reinstalled. The home owner has found that the existing
door to the gable addition, the wood frame work is inconsistent with the other door, and logical would
have been a window to provide cross ventilation.
