Staff Reports
Ms. Dalton presented information regarding a Department of Homeland Security Environmental and Historic
Preservation Screening Form for traffic pre - emption emitters to be installed on traffic signals within the
Commercial Historic District. Mr. Chusmir thanked staff for informing the board about this item. Mr. Chen
directed staff to proceed with letter of support.
Ms. Dalton asked the board if they would want to review an applicant's request to remove all of the old T-
111 siding and replace it with new T -111 siding. Staff can approve if it is a repair request, but with it being a
total remove and replacement request, the T -111 siding is not an approved material. The board unanimously
stated they want to review the request.
Ms. Dalton distributed an open house invitation for Cindy's Dance Studio.
Chairman and Board Items for Discussion

for the Schedule S revisions and requested other board members to attend. Ms. Dalton informed the board
she has not received and comments or questions regarding the Schedule S revisions. The board agreed that
after approval of the Schedule S revisions, there needs to be a Q & A brochure available for the pubic, as
well as possibly holding a Q & A session at a Sanford Historic Trust meeting.
