LC-24-0702 Consider Certificate of Appropriateness – 774 N Broad Street

The applicant, Joshua Webber, was present.

The applicant corrected the original application to say that the proposed fence would be aluminum that is meant to look like iron. Member Martin asked if the product was similar to others that had been before the Commission, such as the fence for Hope Cemetery.

Chairperson Miener shared concerns that the proposed product did not look authentic to the architecture of the structure. Member Martin stated that starting the fence at the front face of the structure and adding landscaping could make the

Commission more amenable to approval.

The applicant proposed tabling this application to allow him to bring in a sample of the product and modify the proposed layout of the fence.

Member Klohn moved to table the Certificate of Appropriateness, seconded by

Member Woolsey.

Motion was approved by voice vote, with no nays or abstentions.
