I. CALL TO ORDER

The meeting was called to order by Chairman John Sheftall at 3:36pm. A quorum

was present. The minutes from the October 14th, 2003 meeting were approved.



II. REVIEW OF APPLICATIONS



1. HD0311-01: Located 1510 Stark Avenue, Brock Jones, applicant.

Brock Jones presented the case. The request was to construct a double carport

with 8?x24? enclosed storage area at rear. The staff report recommended

approval. The Board discussed the materials. Teresa Tomlinson motioned to

approve the application with smooth textured siding. Cherry Frazier seconded

the motion. The motion passed.



2. HD0311-02: Located 1519 17th Avenue, Cher Pitts & Moira Rives, applicants.

Danny Bass presented the case. The request was to paint the brick exterior,

replace garage doors and remove window adjacent to rear door. The staff report

recommended approval for painting the brick exterior and the removal of the

window, but recommended the garage doors retain windows. The applicant modified

the application to add the replacement of a rear window with French doors. The

Board discussed the addition of the French doors, materials covering the

removed window and the retention of windows in the garage doors. Teresa

Tomlinson motioned to approve the application with the condition that the

garage doors are wood with true divided glass panes, the French doors are wood

or metal clad with true-divided light windows and the area of the removed

window (adjacent to the single rear door) be toothed-in brick. Cherry Frazier

seconded the motion. The motion passed.



3. HD0311-03: Located 1521 Wildwood Avenue, Dr. Curtis A. Sims, applicant.

Curtis Sims presented the case. The request was to replace wooded porch columns

with identical fiberglass columns and replace the terra cotta pavers on the

front porch with gray slate pavers. The staff report recommended retaining the

terra cotta pavers and wood columns. The Board discussed the wood vs.

fiberglass columns and replacement pavers. Teresa Tomlinson motioned to approve

the application as presented. Craig Davis seconded the motion. The motion

passed.



4. HD0311-04: Located 2303 Wynnton Road, Ken Hughes, HBJKC Architects,

applicant.

Ken Hughes presented the case. The request was a modification of previously

approved application (HD0307-02) to change exterior materials from two-coat

stucco system to synthetic stucco, with no change in design. The applicant

modified the application to include a change of design, changing the connection

to the addition from an enclosed hall to a covered walkway. The Board reviewed

the new design and discussed the synthetic stucco. Teresa Tomlinson motioned

to approve the application as modified. Cherry Frazier seconded the motion.

The motion passed. Craig Davis abstained.



5. HD0311-05: Located 1615 12th Street, Murray Calhoun, Calhoun Property

Management, applicant. No applicant was present to present the case. The

request was additional information for previously approved application (HD

0305-11) providing details on ramp and window design. Teresa Tomlinson motioned

to deny the application due to lack of representation. Dora Jackson seconded

the motion. The motion passed.



6. HD0311-06: Located 1527 Eberhart Avenue, Phillip Adams, applicant.

Phillip Adams presented the case. The application was to replace existing

window over center gable with a larger one, but identical in design and shape.

The applicant noted that the drawing of the window was incorrect in the

application materials and the window would remain vertical in orientation. The

amended staff report (verbal) recommended approval with a maximum window size

as to not overwhelm the gable. Cherry Frazier motioned to approve the

application with the conditions that the new window would match the existing in

design and proportion, the exterior dimensions of the existing keystones would

serve as the maximum area for the glass and the highest point of the existing

keystone would be the maximum height for the new window (must extend lower).

Andy Gilbert seconded the motion. The motion passed.
