Mr. Harnett <br />and Mr. Ciampa asked to be continued from the meeting last month to adjust their plans. Last <br />month, the Commission expressed their concerns over the proposed addition. The Commission <br />suggested the addition be set back from the historic structure instead of making it more <br />prominent than the historic resource. <br />Mr. Harnett went over the new site plan and architectural style of the building. The modified <br />proposed floor plan will pull the alcove an additional 5 feet, open up the corner of the building <br />and pull the roofline back ten feet on the second floor.
