FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2023-XXX Page 3 of 8 is a new addition. Moreover, the addition will be distinguished by the lack the rolled edges (thatching detail) at the gable’s fascia, and the wider eaves which will have an additional 2x2 wood fascia trim board, as well as the double-hung windows without the upper sash horn detail. Therefore, the architectural treatment will read as contemporary, not conjectural. iv. The project complies with Standard No. 5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize the property will be preserved. The project does not propose to remove character-defining features or materials/finishes along the primary elevation. The project proposes to remove part of the rear (west) and side (north) elevations to accommodate a master bedroom addition, which includes salvaging an original window and relocating it at the south side elevation to accommodate the kitchen remodel; removing non-original French doors; and removing a door and window along the rear (west) elevation, all of which are not readily visible from the public right-of-way. v. The project complies with Standard No. 9. The new rear addition will not destroy historic materials, features, or spatial relationships that characterize the property. The proposed addition is located at the rear (northwest corner) in an area that is not easily visible from the public right-of-way. Important spatial relationships characterizing the English Revival architectural style will not be disturbed, as the addition is positioned to the rear of the existing house. Although a new, front-gable roof will be added to the existing rear hip roof, only a small portion of the existing roof will be altered to accommodate the addition; the new gable will not alter any of the existing roof located on the primary (east) façade or any of the north (side) elevation that is visible from the street. The materials of the new addition will also be compatible with the existing historic materials, through the use of similar materials, as well as differentiated by the lack the rolled edges (thatching detail) at the gable’s fascia, the wider fascia trim, as well as the double-hung windows without the upper sash horn detail. The kitchen remodel will incorporate a salvaged original wood window, to be located from the rear (west) elevation in place of an existing window at the south (side) elevation, in order to create fenestration symmetry at the south elevation.
