Anais Starr presented the staff report:
• 503 Shawnee Street is a non-contributing structure in the Southridge Historic District.
• The applicant's contractor was unaware that a COA for the work was required prior to
installation for this property.
• Ms. Starr informed the Commission that this is an ex post facto request, and should be
treated as though the modifications haven't already taken place.
Keith Jones, the applicant, discussed the item:
• He stated that he received the contractor's plans from the previous homeowners, and he
was not aware he needed to have a COA before starting the work.
Public Comments:
There were no public comments.
Commission Discussion:
• Commissioner Sarah Brewer stated since the home is non-contributing, and you cannot
see the concrete patio and pergola, she finds it is approvable.
The motion to approve (HD 25-12) as submitted was passed unanimously with a vote of
7-0.
