signs on the front or back of the building have COAs or Dept. of Neighborhood
Services permits. On the front wall, that sign is basically compliant and he
recommends approval as existing. The projecting signs both are in violation of sign
code due to the low height and staff recommends denial. Staff feels the best solution
is to remove the neon sign from the bracket and keep the painted sign and BOZA
already granted permission for the painted sign even though it is below the standard
height. BOZA approved despite objections from the departments of City Development,
Neighborhood Services and Public Works. The neon sign could be located behind a
window and he does not support having it added to the front facade in a different area.
The pole sign should be denied as being excessive signage. The rear signage has
zero visibility from the public right of way and staff has no objections. Staff
recommendations are included in the staff report. The applicant would like to retain
the neon sign, although he is not as attached to the pole sign.

substantial rehab was done of the entire house in 2003. The front door will now face
Reservoir rather than the side yard. Staff recommends approval, but further details are

5. 180191 Resolution relating to a Certificate of Appropriateness for landscaping
alterations, construction of fences, reconstruction of the east porch, and
construction of garden structures at 3209 W. Wells Street, the George
Schuster House, an individually designated historic property, for Rick and
Laura Sue Mosier.
Sponsors: THE CHAIR
Mr. Tim Askin said the project is an elebarate garden design with changes to the
porch. The porch is not attached, it's a floating porch. Staff has no serious issues
with the landscaping, some minor concerns with the fencing in front as the land is
unusable due to security issues with the neighborhood as people cut across their
property all the time. The fence will be 36" in height; the proposed dogwood tree might
be disallowed due sight line issues. The pavers in the yard will be all lime stone and
the fountain will match that. The gate will be steel and the fence will be aluminum.
Staff has no objections to the reconstructed porch. The pergola is acceptable with
some conditions relating to the details and feels the brackets are too complex while
the posts are too simple. Staff recommends approval of the fence portion that are in
the front line of the house shall run only with the current owner and shall expire upon
sale. Ald. Bauman is concerned that this is not legal, but the owner does not object to
this condition. Mr. Askin suggested working with staff relating to the design of the
upper half.
Ms. Keating Kahn moved for approval with first 3 condtions listed in the staff report,
seconded by Ms. Pieper Eiesenbrown.

Mr. Tim Askin said the application is to construct a one-car garage which is the same
size as the former garage, but the applicant may decide to make it 4" bigger. Mr.

Mr. Tim Askin said the proposal is to replace two monument signs and to permanently
remove other signs. HPC only has jurisidction over two signs only. The corner sign
replaces an internally lit sign with a sign having better dimensions; the rear of the sign
is also nicer than the currently existing sign. The sign is acceptable as proposed.
Applicant is fine adding the logo and text to the proposed sign. The other sign is
basically the same size and in the same spot; one condition relates to the lighting and
recommends approval with conditions detailed in the report. Applicant is fine with the
conditions.

Mr. Tim Askin said two proposed additions are being added to an existing garage,
which is living space that serves as an air bnb. The lath house wil be used as garden
space and has wood slats, but there is no meaningful enclosure. The slats defuse the
light and wind and the property is used for gardening and for weddings. The main
City of Milwaukee Page 4
HISTORIC PRESERVATION Meeting Minutes June 4, 2018
COMMISSION
house is Italianate, very elaborate and has a large lot. It has become a destination for
garden groups. The applicant is also proposing a connector space between the lath
house and the carriage barn. Mr. Bialk said he bought the 3 city lots in 1985 and has
been working on the property ever since. Lath houses function as shade houses and
he'll use it as a focal point in the garden. The architect is Ryan Shortbridge, who also
offered testimony. Staff got two new variations this morning, so the staff report is out
of date. The buildings function as backdrops for the gardens and will be natural wood
or stained. Mr. Askin thinks the lathe house is too flat and would like to see a
recessed panel in the connector. There will also be a deck so someone can overlook
the garden.
Ms. Peltz moved subject to staff approval of the details based on the latest set of
drawings submitted at today's hearing, seconded by Ms. Pieper Eisenbrown.
