Roofline <br />Mirror roof form (hip, gable, shed), slope, and material of original home in additions. New <br />homes should use roof forms and materials of similarly styled homes in the immediate <br />neighborhood. <br />Coordinate roof material with the architectural style of the house, i.e., tile roofs on <br />Spanish- or Mediterranean -style homes. <br />Materials <br />Install the highest quality materials. <br />Use materials appropriate to the architectural style of the home: stucco for bungalows <br />and Spanish or Mediterranean homes, horizontal wood siding for Victorians, etc. <br />Use natural exterior materials. Fake stone, rough -hewn wood or plywood, metal, or <br />plastic should not be used as exterior siding. Use of green construction materials is <br />encouraged. <br />Windows <br />The shape, materials, and placement of windows should be appropriate to the <br />architectural style. Various architectural styles require different window details. For <br />example, windows on stucco exteriors must be recessed. For wood clad exteriors, <br />windows do not need to be recessed provided there is substantial trim separating the <br />windows from the wall and have window sills that cast a shadow on the wall. <br />Entries <br />New homes should reflect the predominant entry style of the immediate neighborhood, <br />direct or private. <br />Front porches are strongly encouraged. Use them on new construction. Retain or <br />enhance on building remodels. <br />Design porches or protected entryways to recall those elements found in surrounding <br />homes. They should be a minimum of six feet in width. <br />Architectural Details <br />New construction is to use a rich variety of detailing appropriate to the style of the <br />building and that found in similar homes in the neighborhood. This includes elements <br />such as roof eave, door and window trim, balconies, railings, and material accents such <br />as tile or shingle patterns. <br />Multi - Familv Zones <br />Multiple - family housing complexes should be designed to follow the rhythm and scale of <br />the surrounding homes. <br />The architectural style of the development should match an existing style in the <br />immediate neighborhood. If many styles exist, select the one which is most appropriate <br />for the development. <br />P16 -1201, PUD -120, & TRACT 8326 Planning Commission <br />18 of 32 <br />
