FINDINGS OF FACT Property Owner/Applicant: Michael B. Lessard 1908 Tabby Way New Smyrna, Florida 32168-5382 Project: Approval of the HPB replace missing windows relative to property located at the 703 Sanford Avenue. Requested Development Approval: The Applicant requested approval of the HPB replace missing windows relative to property located at the 703 Sanford Avenue. Additional Findings: The structure is a locally designated landmark in the Georgetown National Register Historic District. The single story, frame vernacular building was constructed in 1934 according a review of the records of Seminole County Property Appraiser, but appears on the 1917 Sanborn Map. At present, no windows are I I P a g e in place. A photo taken in 1987 shows windows at that time. Unique to the property are the large multi -paned windows on the front (west) and north facades. The applicant is proposing to install 8 Pella Lifestyle Series Wood double hung aluminum clad 1/1 lite windows in the existing openings each being 36" x 54" in size. No information was provided to determine whether the larger windows are original to the house, or the sizes were reduced after 1987. Most likely the other vertical windows were double hung, not casement, based on the period and style of the construction. There are almost no historic casement windows in the Sanford Residential District or in the Georgetown National Register District. The aluminum clad wood double hung 1/1 lite windows proposed are an acceptable replacement -for the---missing—windows in a structure from this period-.---Though—not confirmed, it is likely that the large multi -paned windows on the front and north elevations in the 1987 photograph are alterations to the original 1917 window configurations. It is possible that those 2 enlarged window openings have been in place for over 50 years and have obtained significance in their own right. Either configuration of these two windows would meet the standards and intentions of Schedule "S" of the City's Land Development Regulations (LDRs). CONCLUSIONS OF LAW (a). Pursuant to Section 8.0 of Schedule "S" of the City's LDRs, the HPB has reviewed the proposed Certificate of Appropriateness and all application documentation and matters relating thereto in accordance with the procedures for altering historic landmarks or structures within historic districts as set forth in Schedule "S". (b). Specifically, Schedule "S" of the City's LDRs provides as follows: 21 P age (1). Most properties change over time; those changes that have acquired historical significance in their own right shall be retained and preserved. (2). If windows or window details are determined to be irreparable, they may be replaced provided that on the primary facades of contributing buildings, replacement windows shall match the existing original windows in size, configuration, material, design and placement. (3). On secondary facades, replacement windows may be of a different design or type provided the windows are consistent with the style of the building. (4). When replacing existing windows that are inappropriate to the style and period of the building, they shall be replaced with new windows that are appropriate to the style and period of the building. (5). All new windows shall have mullion profiles similar to contributing structures. If single hung or double hung windows are placed in groupings, a 4" to 6" inch trim piece shall separate the windows. (6). Windows and doors shall be glazed in clear glass with no more than 10% daylight reduction. (7). The use of reflective glass and reflective film is prohibited and unlawful on all buildings. (8). Only when the change is appropriate to the style and 3 1 P a g e period of the building may a window be relocated, enlarged, reduced or introduced. (9). Windows shall be proportioned such that the height shall be equal to or greater than the width, with the exception of historically appropriate window groupings. (10). Rectangular windows shall be casement and single or double hung: circular and hexagonal windows may be fixed or pivot. (c). To the extent that a conclusion of law as set forth herein also constitutes a factual finding, then such shall be taken to be so as part of this Development Order. (d). The proposed Certificate of Appropriateness is hereby found and --determined to comply with the aforestated requirements -and provisions. (e). Additionally, the Certificate of Appropriateness sought is hereby found and determined to be consistent with the City of Sanford Comprehensive Plan and development of the property as proposed would be consistent with and in compliance to applicable land development regulations and all other applicable regulations and ordinances as set forth in the Code of Ordinances of the City of Sanford. ORDER NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1). The aforementioned application for a Certificate of Appropriateness is APPROVED with the condition that with the condition that double -hung windows shall be installed and that approval of the specifications for the doors is subject to approval by the Historic Preservation Officer and if the Property Owner disagrees with such determination, the matter will be submitted to the HPB for resolution at a public meeting 4 1 P a g e and the matter will be adjudicated by means of a development order or denial development order relating thereto..
