HISTORIC PRESERVATION BOARD OF THE CITY OF SANFORD DEVELOPMENT
ORDER No. 21-28 RELATING TO 302 OAK AVENUE AND ISSUING
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS (FURTHER REVISIONS)
The Historic Preservation Board (HPB) of the City of Sanford issued this
Development Order issuing a Certificate of Appropriateness relating to and touching
and concerning the following described property: 302 Oak Avenue, which is assigned
Tax Parcel Identification Number: 25-19-30-5AG-0505-0010 assigned by the Seminole
County Property Appraiser.
FINDINGS OF FACT
Property Owners: Michelle M. Solano and Leah K. Solano
302 Oak Avenue
Sanford, Florida 32771-1882
Applicant: Steve Delacerda
Total Service Contracting, Inc.
1250 Swiss Court
Deltona, Florida 32738
Project: Approval of the HPB to permit alterations with regard to property located
at 302 Oak Avenue.
Requested Development Approval: The Applicant requested approval of the HPB
to permit alterations with regard to property located at 302 Oak Avenue.
Additional Findings: The structure located on the subject property was built in
I I P a g e
1887 and is located in the Sanford Residential Historic District.
The contributing Folk Victorian/frame vernacular structure has been clad with synthetic
siding, but generally retains architectural integrity. The property owners have received
approval to place solar panels on the roof, visible from the street and to demolish an
enclosed back porch addition.
The roof line and chimneys, porch elements, windows and doors are remaining
character -defining features for the property. A photo taken in 1987 shows porches
screened in, but the railing and brackets are slightly different from those currently in
place. Since the photo was taken, a pierced header has been replaced with a solid
board.
Front porch maintenance has been deferred and in response, the following is proposed:
(1). Removal of the existing porch railing on both the first and second floors,
replacing with standard wood deck railing.
(2). Removal of the the screen panels located on the first floor.
(3). Repair of floor joists as needed.
(4). Installation of new 1" x 6" tongue and groove floor decking on both floors.
(5). Installation of new 1" ceiling plank on both floors.
(6). Replacement of a new wood bracket to address a missing bracket.
(7). Removal of a "false" header beam and moving brackets up to address the
removal.
The existing porch railing is a distinctive and character defining feature of the Victorian
era house, and is in character with the style of the building. Pictorial evidence shows a
very similar design in place in 1987 although the actual construction date is not known.
2 1 P a g e
The design is shown slightly modified in a 2002 photograph of the present
configuration. Repair or replication appears to be a reasonable solution. Replicating
and replacing the missing bracket supports the goal to retain original or historic
features, but the purpose of removing the header and raising them is not clear in the
application. The proposed treatment for floor and ceiling repair/replacement meet the
criteria. of Schedule "S" of the City's Land Development Regulations (LDRs).
At the hearing, the request for the following work was withdrawn by the Property Owner:
replacement of the existing first and second floor porch railing with a standard wood rail
kit and the repair of porch ceilings and floors to match existing conditions.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
(a). Pursuant to Section 8.0 of Schedule "S" of the LDRs, the HPB has
reviewed the proposed (as modified) Certificate of Appropriateness and all application
documentation and matters relating thereto in accordance with the procedures for

"S" of the City's LDRs.

building shall be retained.
3 1 P a g e

(5). Replacement of existing porches with a design or
materials not in character with the style and period of the building is

repair when completed is not visible.
(9). New porch elements, such as, by way of example only
and not as a limitation, balusters and columns, brackets, trim, and
architectural embellishments shall be compatible with the style and
period of the building and shall be substantiated by physical and/or
pictorial evidence of the subject property.
(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.
