Architecture
<br /> The DSP includes the following policy regarding specific allowable architectural styles within the
<br /> Downtown:
<br /> Policy No. 6: New residential building design, including the design of replacement
<br /> buildings for buildings constructed before 1942 which are approved for demolition, should
<br /> draw upon the primary exterior features of the Downtown's traditional design character in
<br /> terms of materials, colors, details of construction, and setbacks and should utilize or be
<br /> based on one of the following architectural styles found in Downtown dating from
<br /> pre-1942: Gothic Revival, ltalianate, Victorian (Queen Anne, Stick, and Folk), Bay
<br /> Tradition, Craftsman, Prairie, Mission Revival, Spanish Colonial Revival, Mediterranean
<br /> Revival, Minimal Traditional, Vernacular Forms, and FHA Minimum House.
<br /> In addition to the above policy, the DSP recommends the use of traditional materials, finishes,
<br /> colors, and detailing. Some of the Downtown Design Guidelines that pertain to the proposed
<br /> project include:
<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
<br /> such as tile or shingle patterns.
<br /> • Continue the existing density and spacing of homes. Match the side yard setbacks of
<br /> surrounding homes.
<br /> • Generally align homes with adjacent houses.
<br /> • New homes should face the street.
<br /> • New residential building design, including the design of replacement buildings for
<br /> buildings constructed before 1942 which are approved for demolition, or additions to
<br /> existing single-family homes should result in homes that are consistent with the floor
<br /> area, bulk, and massing of homes in the immediate neighborhood.
<br /> • Reflect the general massing of surrounding homes, including roof forms and step
<br /> backs, front porches, bay windows, and balconies.
<br /> • Reduce mass through roof forms such as hips, dormers, small gables, and
<br /> articulations such as balconies.
<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 /> • 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 /> • New homes should reflect the predominant entry style of the immediate neighborhood,
<br /> direct or private.
