#1 Consent Agenda
A. Joe & Lindsey Serrano 5625 Pembroke Lane
The Serranos are proposing to add a new screened porch over their existing garage. The project also
includes removing an existing bay window, replacement of multiple shutters, and replacing stone veneer.
th
Due to a clerical error, this project was not properly noticed for the May 29 ARB meeting. The project
has since been re-noticed to the appropriate neighbors. Before continuing the project, the ARB was
about to approve the project, with the stipulation that the stone material match the existing stone on the
house and that the city administrator should review in the field. The ARB also stipulated that the roofing
shall be one of the pre-approved materials, and that the shutters be made of wood.
Summary of Property:
• Character Area: Neighborhood Estates
• Location of Common Green Space: Front
• Any Special Frontages: None
Summary of Project:
The existing garage is side entry and located toward the center of the lot with a rooftop deck. The
proposed screened porch will enclose the deck and add a new fireplace/chimney to the rear of the porch.
The new roof will have a swept eave that ties into an existing swept eave. The structure of the new porch
has evenly spaced columns infilled with screen panels. The screen panels have a lower panel with wood
trim. The gabled end of the porch will have timbered stucco above the screen panels.
At the front (west) side of the house an existing bay window will be removed in its entirety. A new
quadruple double-hung window unit will be added in its place.
The foundation at the front of the house is sided with a combination of stone and brick. The Serranos are
proposing to replace all of the brick with stone to make a consistent surface material.
The house has shutters primarily on the front of the house. None of the existing shutters are proportional
to the windows they serve. The Serranos are proposing to replace all of the shutters with new shutters of
the same size and style.
Additional improvements include various areas of stucco and trim repair. They are also proposing to
replace the existing roof.

Summary of Property:
• Character Area: Neighborhood Estates
• Location of Common Green Space: Front
• Any Special Frontages: None
Summary of Project:
nd
The 2 floor addition will have a front facing balcony over the existing first floor. The Blocks originally
proposed to not add windows on the side or rear of the addition; however, they would be willing to place 2
faux windows with shutters on the side. They would also be willing to place 2 sets of closed shutters on
the side of the addition since there is another location on the house with closed shutters. The addition will
have lap siding.

There are no conflicts between the proposed project and the City of Mission Hills Code of Ordinances.
Design Guideline Review:
Section 2.3.2 on page 66 of the Design Guidelines provides recommendations for side wings. It appears
that the addition will be located in the secondary building area. If so, the Design Guidelines recommend
that the height be no more than 2 stories and 30 feet. It also must be clearly less than the main mass.
There is no indication of the height on the drawings. Clarification is required.
