| 2016-06-29 15:49:54 | 6/29/16 - AFTER ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FROM THE |
| | APPLICANT, THE HPD WILL APPROVE A ONE-TIME INSTALLATION |
| | OF BERMUDA/BAHAMIAN LOUVERED ALUMINUM SHUTTERS FOR |
| | INSTALLATION ON THE SECOND FLOOR, GIVEN THE EXISTING |
| | PRESENCE OF SHUTTERS ON THE RESIDENCE AND THE DESIRE TO |
| | MAINTAIN STORM PROTECTION DURING THE HURRICANE SEASON. |
| | THE SHUTTERS ARE A REVERSIBLE CHANGE, AND CAN BE |
| | REMOVED ONCE AN OWNER DECIDES TO RESTORE THE MISSION |
| | REVIVAL RESIDENCE TO ITS HISTORIC APPEARANCE. THE |
| | EXISTING VINYL SIDING GREATLY DEGRADES ITS AUTHENTIC |
| | HISTORIC APPEARANCE, AND THE PROPOSED BERMUDA SHUTTERS |
| | ARE ALSO NOT IN CHARACTER. VINYL SIDING MAY PROVE |
| | PROBLEMATIC FOR FUTURE REHABILITATION WORK, AS VINYL |
| | SIDING TRAPS MOISTURE WITHIN THE INTERIOR FRAMING, AND |
| | CAN CREATE FUTURE STRUCTURAL CONCERNS FROM WOOD ROT. |
| | FUTURE PROPOSED SITE WORK SHOULD FOCUS ON THE |
| | RESTORATION OF HISTORIC FINISHES, INCLUDING THE |
| | REAPPLICATION OF STUCCO EXTERIOR FINISH, AND |
| | COLONIAL-STYLE SHUTTERS OR STRAIGHT CANVAS AWNING |
| | WINDOW SHADES. DLE |
| 2016-06-20 12:49:31 | 6/20/16 - BERMUDA SHUTTERS ARE NOT APPROPRIATE FOR USE |
| | WITHIN HISTORIC DISTRICTS, ESPECIALLY ON MISSION STYLE |
| | ARCHITECTURE. APPLICANT IS ENCOURAGED TO PURSUE |
| | COLONIAL-STYLE FOLDING SHUTTERS, CANVAS AWNINGS, OR |
| | ARMORSCREEN PROTECTION TO GAIN THE SAME BENEFIT FROM |
| | THE DESIRED BERMUDA SHUTTERS. QUESTIONS SHOULD BE |
| | DIRECTED TO THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION DIVISION PLANNER |
| | AT 561.822.1457. DLE |
