The meeting <br /> convened at 7:30PM. <br /> Historical Commission Members in Attendance: <br /> Marilyn Fenollosa acting Chair, Diane Pursley and Wendall Kalsow <br /> AGENDA ITEM #1 (7:30 PM) <br /> Public hearing on the partial building demolition and roofline change at 15 Sherman Street <br /> APPLICANT (S) PRESENT: <br /> Julie Kelly, Homeowner <br /> Christal Snell, Snell Construction <br /> Ron Borque, Architect <br /> ABUTTER(S) PRESENT: <br /> Howard Cloth, 19 Sherman Street <br /> Susan Pitney, 19 Sherman Street <br /> Wanda Gilbert, 17 Sherman Street <br /> DOCUMENT(S): <br /> Photos of the existing house <br /> Plans dated October 2, 2019 <br /> SUMMARY: <br /> Mr. Borque told the Commission he is proposing an addition to the front of the house. Mr. <br /> Borque went over the plans with the Commission. The porch is currently an enclosed porch with <br /> no foundation so they plan to open it into a three season porch. <br /> HC COMMENTS: <br /> Mr. Kalsow said he would rather see an addition to the rear of the house but given the setbacks <br /> they do not have that option. This gives the ability for the applicant to save the bones of the <br /> house, with some hesitation he is ok with the proposed changes. <br />
