COA applications:
419 Main Street – Kurt Wahl, Chair of the COA Committee gave an overview of the project at 419
Main Street and stated that the COC Committee recommended approval of this project. While there
is a lot work being done on the windows, most of the work is repair of existing windows which
doesn’t require Commission approval. However, there are three window openings on the second
floor on the south (back) side of the building that are currently boarded up with plywood that are
being replaced with Marvin Magnum aluminum clad windows. The color will be antique bronze.
Dann Keiser met with the building owner prior to the COA application and stated that the
Commission has approved this kind of replacement window on other upper story window projects
as they meet the Secretary of Interior standards. The property owner, Dwight Morgan, was invited
to share any additional information or make any clarifications. He confirmed that the summary of
the project was accurate. Patti Morgan recused herself from all discussion about this project.
Following discussion among the remaining Commissioners, Sean Lutes moved to approve the COA
as submitted for 419 Main Street. Shawna McCully seconded the motion. Patti Morgan abstained.
The motion passed.
