listed, to be used. "Modern Farmhouse" is not on the list. The elevations submitted, with some <br /> mitigation in red, resemble designs used in new housing tracts. I submit that the house you propose <br /> to demolish is closer in style to a farmhouse design versus those designs submitted for approval. <br /> (City staff-Where's the nod to historic design and charm? Tell me where those designs exist in historic <br /> downtown?). <br /> The elevations submitted appear to indicate metal siding which still looks like metal. <br /> The city report is stretching the language of the DSP and setting new precedent. <br /> What does the staff mean by "high quality materials"? Metal is metal. It doesn't fit in a historic <br /> neighborhood. <br /> The windows, if made of fiberglass, minimally, should have similar frame and sash thickness as <br /> found on traditional wooden sash windows. Mullions should be raised! Other newer residential <br /> buildings in close proximity to railroads have complied with raised mullions over STC rated glass. <br /> (Note Peters Street Condos). An alternative would be to utilize single frame or double hung windows <br /> with one over one lights that require no mullions. "Farmhouse" architecture utilizes simple <br /> window patterns. <br /> This report has too many exceptions to the DSP and the concern is that the exceptions become the <br /> rule. <br /> We are aware that this proposed project is on the "edge" of the Downtown Specific Planning Area, <br /> but Augustine Street houses three residential historic resources and since this project is right next to <br /> family occupied residences on that street, compliance should be no less important than any other <br /> historic neighborhood in town. <br /> Our goal should not be to create exceptions to clear Land Use and Historic Preservation Policy and <br /> DSP language, but to comply with that language. <br /> I will be addressing these issues at the July 13 Planning Commission Meeting. <br /> Linda Garbarino, President <br /> Pleasanton Heritage Association <br /> 4 <br />
