DENY Certificate No. 32707&G. Guidelines, pg. 19, "Outbuildings, No. 1 - Outbuildings are acceptable in Fourth & Gill. Their size and construction should use materials that correspond to the original primary buildings on the lot."
Construct 8'x10' metal storage building in rear yard, gable roof.
One story frame with weatherboard wall covering. Hip roof with lower front gable, asphalt shingle roof covering, replacement attic vent. Two over two double hung windows. One story full front porch with splayed posts on brick columns, concrete floor, metal balustrade. Interior offset brick chimney. Brick foundation. Rectangular plan.
The proposed location and size of this storage shed are appropriate. However, adopted design guidelines provide for construction of outbuildings such as work sheds with original designs that included gable and shed roofs with weatherboard or board and batten wall covering. The guidelines provide that new work buildings can be constructed on the rear of Fourth & Gill lots, but their design and materials should respect the primary building on the lot. In this case, that would be either weatherboard or board and batten siding, with an asphalt or composition shingle gable roof.
