Project Description At its Tuesday, May 21st, 2019 meeting, the applicant received an approval for the
following:
The applicant wishes to construct a new single-family dwelling on the property. The
house will be covered by a black architectural asphalt shingle roof, preceded by
“Bracken Cream” (CW-105) colored Hardie board eaves (soffit and fascia). The
walls of the house will be covered in “Timson Green” (CW-470) colored Hardie
board siding with Bracken Cream colored Hardie board trim. The house will rest on
a concrete block foundation, which will be clad in white stucco. The primary façade
of the building will be adorned by a single-story front porch covered by a hipped
roof, supported by square wooden columns, resting on a red brick-clad concrete
block foundation, accessed by brick steps, floored in cement, and surrounded by
almond-colored aluminum railings. The house will be accessed by a Bracken Cream
colored steel door featuring a rounded window and rounded panels. The house will
be fenestrated by white vinyl two-over-two double-hung sash windows. All windows
will be bordered by Bracken Cream colored Hardie board trim and inoperable two-
panel Hardie board shutters of the same color. The house will feature a forward-
gable massing. The gable will be separated from the rest of the primary façade by a
pine cornice matching the color of the remaining eaves on the home, embellished by
a white fan-shaped attic vent. A deck will be constructed to the rear of the home,
composed of treated lumber. A concrete driveway and parking area will connect the
backyard of the home to 1st St, and a concrete walkway will connect the front steps to
Washington St.
The applicant is now seeking approval to amend their previous approval in the
following manner:
(1) The omission of the inoperable two-panel Bracken Cream colored Hardie board
shutters.
(2) The omission of the white fan-shaped attic vent on the front gable.
(3) The use of wooden simulated board-and-batten siding on the front gable instead
of Hardie board siding.
(4) The retention of the factory black color of the aluminum railings surrounding the
front porch.
(5) The use of a black colored standing seam metal roof on the decorative cornice
separating the front gable from the rest of the primary façade.
(6) The painting of the stucco cladding the concrete block foundation with a red
color to match the color of the bricks used for the front porch.
Approval is sought for the items above in addition to the retention of the prior
approval from 2019 in the event that circumstances change for the owner or
applicant.
Recommendation Town staff recommend approval as submitted.

Project Description The applicant is seeking approval to construct an eighteen-foot by twenty-three-
foot “L” shaped wooden deck (approximately three-hundred square feet) to the
rear of the primary building. The deck will be bordered by a wooden railing
composed of posts joined by horizontally-mounted one-inch by two-inch slats on
tight centers to deter climbing.
Additionally, the applicant wishes to erect a ten-foot by twelve-foot shed
(approximately twelve-feet tall and 120 square feet in area) in the rear yard of the
property. The shed will feature a “Croxley” brown-colored six-foot wide, seven-
foot tall Clopay short panel tongue-and-groove joint garage door. The roof will
be covered by “Hunter Green” colored architectural asphalt shingles to match
those present on the primary building.
The proposed shed will be sided in two materials. Initially, the shed will be clad
in T1-11 plywood siding that will be painted “Mushroom Bisque” (PPU4-07) to
match the color of the primary building. Upon the completion of the installation
of the siding on the primary building, the applicant wishes to cover the T1-11
plywood siding on the shed with the same Mushroom Bisque-colored Allura
fiber cement simulated cedar shake shingle siding that is being used on the
primary building. The applicant desires approval for both materials at this time.
Lastly, the applicant wishes to amend their prior BHAR approval from Tuesday,
May 15th, 2018 to update the color of the front door of the primary building from
“Croxley” black to “Croxley” brown. This will cause the front door color and
the proposed garage door color to match.
Recommendation Town staff recommend approval as submitted.

BOARD OF HISTORIC & ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW STAFF REPORT:
AMENDMENT TO SMITHFIELD ZONING ORDINANCE ARTICLE 3.M:
HISTORIC PRESERVATION OVERLAY DISTRICT
*DISCUSSION ITEM: TUESDAY, JULY 21st, 2020*
The 2017 designation evaluation of the properties located within the Historic Preservation
Overlay (HPO), which was finalized by the Board of Historic & Architectural Review (BHAR)
earlier this year, has caused Town staff to realize that the inventory of properties located within
the HPO (enshrined in Smithfield Zoning Ordinance (SZO) Section 3.M.H) has grown to
become lengthy and difficult to navigate.
Additionally, Town staff have persistently struggled with a lack of clarity in the SZO concerning
the boundaries of the HPO, the absence of classification criteria for non-contributing properties,
and our inability to update the inventory of properties to reflect technical changes to certain
attributes contained therein (i.e. address changes, etc.).
To remedy these concerns, Town staff have proposed a text amendment to SZO Article 3.M
which seeks to achieve the following items:
(1) The revision of Section 3.M.D.4 to include classification criteria for non-contributing
properties.
(2) The creation of a map of the HPO which clearly illustrates the HPO’s boundaries, and the
designations of the properties located therein.
(3) The repeal of SZO Section 3.M.H, and its replacement with an inventory of properties that
will be attached to the aforementioned HPO map as an appendix.
(4) The creation of Section 3.M.D.6, which allows Town staff to update the inventory and
HPO map from time to time to reflect technical changes which occur within the HPO in
real time. All changes will be brought to the BHAR for their approval. This, coupled
with the removal of the inventory list from SZO Section 3.M.H, allows for Town staff to
make changes to the inventory and map without having to seek review and decision by
both the Planning Commission and the Town Council- a sixty-to-ninety-day process that
entails two public hearings. Some examples of technical changes to the inventory or map
that Town staff would seek to undertake include (but are not limited to):
(a) Address assignments, changes, and removals (i.e. new construction, demolition, etc.).
(b) The reversion of a property’s designation from landmark or contributing to non-
contributing in the event of its accidental destruction by fire, flood, etc.
(c) The creation, vacation, and/or adjustment of lot lines and tax parcel identification
numbers as a part of the subdivision process.
Some other items for the consideration of the BHAR include the fact that Article 3.M of the SZO
has always referenced an HPO map, but until now, no definitive map has been known to Town
staff. Finally, the inclusion of an inventory of properties located within an overlay district as a
section of the zoning ordinance is a concept that is atypical in Virginia.
A red lined version of this text amendment is included in the pages immediately following this
staff report. Additionally, the draft HPO map and inventory have been included for the
convenience of the BHAR. Town staff is seeking a consensus from the BHAR on this discussion
item before it proceeds to the Planning Commission.

___________________________________________________________________________________
permits and shall be subject in all cases to a report by the Review Board in accordance
with the purposes and standards of the HP-O District.
(Ord. of 9-5-2000; Ord. of 5-4-2004)
D. Inventory of Landmarks and the Contributing Properties Established
1. A map entitled “Properties of Historic or Architectural Significance in the Old Town Area
Town of Smithfield, Virginia Historic Preservation Overlay,” hereinafter called “the
Inventory Map,” has been adopted and shall be as much a part of this ordinance as if fully
described herein and shall be filed as a part of the ordinance by the Clerk of the Town of
Smithfield.
2. All structures designated on said map as structures from the 18th century to pre-Civil War
or structures with architectural significance from the period after the Civil War shall be
considered as landmarks or landmark structures.
3. Properties designated as properties which contribute to the historic character of the Town
but which do not contain landmark structures shall be known as contributing properties
for the purpose of the ordinance.
4. Dates of construction noted on said map for certain landmark structures shall be
accepted for the purposes of administration of this ordinance unless a different date is
proven to the satisfaction of the Review Board, in which case the new date may be noted
on the inventory map at the time of the next amendment thereto. Properties designated
as non-contributing are those which feature buildings that were constructed less than fifty
(50) years ago, have been altered to such an extent that they are no longer
representative of the period in which they were constructed, are in such a poor condition
that their preservation is difficult, are unexemplary of any particular architectural style,
have no architectural merit, and/or are vacant lots.
5. The inventory map may be amended from time to time in the same manner as the Zoning
District Map. To remove any ambiguity as to the boundaries of the HP-O District, and to
align interpretations of the Inventory Map, attached thereto shall be a list of all tax parcel
identification numbers, addresses, and designations for all properties located within the
HP-O District.

6. To reflect changes in the HP-O District which occur in real time, the Administrator shall
update or amend the Inventory Map and property inventory from time to time with the
Review Board’s approval.

E. HP-O District Administration: Board of Historic and Architectural Review
1. Membership: The Review Board shall consist of seven (7) citizens, at least three (3) of
whom shall be residents of the historic district and five of whom shall be residents of the
Town of Smithfield, appointed by the Town Council. One of the members shall be a
licensed architect or building contractor, one shall be a member of the Town Planning
Commission and one shall be a citizen who has demonstrated outstanding interest and
knowledge in historical or architectural development within the Town. The Review Board
shall elect its chairman and the term of office shall be for five years, except that original
appointments shall be made for such terms that the term of one member shall expire
each year. Appointments to fill vacancies shall be made only for the unexpired term.
Members may be reappointed to succeed themselves. A member whose term expires
shall continue to serve until his successor is appointed and qualifies. The Review Board
shall adopt rules of procedure and keep written minutes of its meetings.
2. General Considerations for Review: In general it is the purpose of this Ordinance to
establish review procedures for actions affecting properties in the HP-O Historic
Preservation Overlay District which will be relatively simple, with minimum delay for those
actions which will have little if any permanent effect on the character of the historic district
or on a significant structure but also to require a more thorough review for actions which
may have a substantial effect on the character of the district or on a significant structure.
Certain actions are exempted from special historic and architectural review altogether,
except as normal review may be necessary for issuance of a building permit. Other
actions, depending on the possible consequences thereof, may be reviewed by the
Planning and Zoning Administrator acting alone, by the Planning and Zoning
Administrator acting after informal consultation with the Review Board, by the Review
Board acting with original jurisdiction, or in the most serious cases, action by the Town
Council following action by the Review Board. The decisions of the Planning and Zoning
Administrator may be appealed to the Review Board, the decisions of the Review Board
may be appealed to the Town Council, and the final decisions of the Town Council may
be appealed to the Circuit Court of Isle of Wight County.
