Chairman Jenkins asked Commissioners if they had any conflicts of interest with any of the items listed on the agenda, noting there were none. Public Comments There were no public comments. ITEM I. New Business: a) 128 W. Main Owner/ Presenter: Tim Winter, Presbyterian Church Mr. Winter requested to replace roof tiles with new aluminum tiles from Interlocking Roofing in the color “Musket Grey” because of their similar profile and to install gutter guards over the sanctuary and correct the water flow in the front southwest corner. They also requested approval to wrap the belfry in a custom white metal to provide an exact look as before the damage. The shutters would be custom wrapped in metal as well, only replacing missing or damaged slats/rails. The Commission discussed in depth the issues with the new roof option stating that they would like to see options closer to what the church originally had. During this discussion Rebecca Moss made a motion to approve as presented, seconded by Marcey Hawley. Not all Commissioners approved this motion leading the Chairman to do a roll call vote. All Commissioners voted no to the approval of the roof tiles except one. Chris Basar then made a motion to approve everything present except the roof tiles and requested the church do research on the original roof material and return to present their findings. Motion: Chris Basar made a motion to approve as presented except the roof replacement, seconded by Nita Van Til, and passed unanimously.  Attachment B b) Sign Section of the HZC Guidelines Chairman Jenkins and the Commissioners discussed the sign section of the HZC Guidelines looking for literature pertaining to monitors, tv’s and other electronics in the storefronts of the downtown historic district. The passage needed was found by Nita Van Til who quoted Chapter 5:4, “No exposed electronic messages or images will be approved for use in the H-1 and H-2 Zones”. This brought the discussion to an end. c) Property Designation Committee Handbook Frank Collins read through and revised sections of the Property Designation Committee Handbook after the last meeting in December. This was presented to the commission and after much discussion, the decision was made to have the Property Designation Committee meet and go over handbooks from other towns to see if we are closely related in literature or if some literature needs to be updated or revised. No changes were made to the handbook during this meeting. ITEM II. Expedited: 404 & 408 East Main Owner: Jimmy Rhein Repairing woodwork, repainting front of home and replacing glass and rotted wood in garage. All matching the original version.
