PUBLIC FORUM: D. OLD BUSINESS: E. CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS 1. Consider the Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) request in order to change the window style for the property located at 105 S. Sleight - COA 19-25 Brice Elliott, window installer for the petitioner and Caitlyn Haap, representative of the petitioner provided an overview of the request stating there currently is a crack in the picture window and the homeowners, Bill and Lana Bassetto would like to replace the window with three double hung wooden windows with exterior aluminum cladding. Public Testimony: None Chairman Peterson inquired if the picture window was being removed or if the picture window and the flanking windows were being removed. Elliot stated that everything in the current window opening would be removed (i.e. the picture window and the two flanking windows) to be replaced with three double hung windows of equal size. Commissioner Ory stated that a typical Queen Anne style home would have a bay window on the front façade and asked if the middle window could be built so it is wider than the flanking windows to create more of a bay window style look. Haap responded that the homeowners thought the equal sized windows would look the best. Commissioner Jacks asked if Naper Settlement had images of the original window. Louise Howard, Naper Heritage Society Representative, stated that Naper Settlement did not have any images of the original window. The Historic Preservation Commission stated they supported the request conditioned upon the petitioner making the middle window 6” wider than the flanking windows.
