Zionsville Architectural Review Committee minutes of the Oct. 9, 2012 special meeting Members of the Zionsville Architectural Review Committee convened at 7:30 a.m., Tuesday, Sept. 25, 2012 for a special meeting in the Fireplace Room of the Zionsville Town Hall. Those attending included committee chair, David Rausch, and committee members Lisa Bick, Chris Bucher, Tom Casalini, Eileen Davis and Betsy Harris as well as Wayne DeLong, director of the Zionsville Department of Planning and Economic Development. Village business district property owner Brian Brunner also attended. Dave presided and called the meeting to order at 7:35 a.m.. Eileen moved that the agenda be approved. Lisa seconded the motion which carried. Chris moved that the minutes from the Aug. 28, 2012 and Sept. 25, 2012 meetings be tabled until the October monthly meeting. Reports: None Old Business: Consideration of Program Rules related to non-façade elements: It was the consensus that funding for non-façade elements would be considered only when part of a whole rehabilitation project. Centerpoint Ventures 50/56 N. Main Street: Brian Brunner, principal of Centerpoint Ventures wealth management and owner of the property at 50-56 N. Main Street, presented the committee with a revised architectural rendering of the façade which it had requested at its Sept. 25, 2012 meeting as well as a rendering showing the building in context with the neighboring buildings. Included were more emphasis on the trim as well as a monochromatic color scheme. A budget reflecting final bids on the various aspects of the project which had been requested had not been completed. Mr. Bunner noted that he felt the final figure would be in the $50,000 to $60,000 range and probably closer to the original $52,190 estimate. Tom moved that the committee approve the Centerpoint Ventures project with the following contingencies: approval of the color selection, approval of lighting and approval of the profiles of the columns and planters (no applied trim work but rather recessed.) The grant is 50 percent of the total cost not to exceed $60,000. Mr. Brunner was requested to present the committee with a final cost estimate by its Oct. 23, 2012 meeting so that monies can be encumbered and rolled over into the 2013 budget when the project will be completed. Lisa seconded the motion which carried. New Business None Other: None There being no further business, Lisa moved that the meeting be adjourned at 9:15 a.m. Eileen seconded the motion which carried. Respectfully submitted, Betsy Harris, secretary Next meeting: 7:30 a.m., Tuesday, Oct. 23, 2012 in the Fireplace Room of the Zionsville Town
