HISTORIC PRESERVATION BOARD OF THE CITY OF SANFORD DEVELOPMENT
ORDER No. 21-34 RELATING TO 506 PALMETTO AVENUE AND ISSUING
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
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 which is assigned Tax Parcel
Identification Number: 25-19-30-5AG-0702-0020 by the Seminole County Property
Appraiser.
FINDINGS OF FACT
Property Owners: Charles B. Greenhouse and Colleen M. Greenhouse
506 Palmetto Avenue
Sanford, Florida 32771
Applicant: Ross Jordan
Jordan Contracting Corporation
7523 Aloma Avenue
Suite 110
Winter Park, Florida 32792
Project: Alterations relative to property located at 506 Palmetto Avenue.
Requested Development Approval: The Applicant has requested the HPB to
approve alterations relative to property located at 506 Palmetto Avenue.
Additional Findings: The project is located at 506 Palmetto Avenue in the City's
in the Sanford Residential Historic District.
I I P a g e
A frame vernacular structure is located on the subject property and was constructed in
about. 1928 as shown in the records of the Seminole County Property Appraiser. The
style is more associated with the 1890-1910 time period. The HPB previously approved
an addition on the southwest corner of the house and is now requested to approve the
following scope of work:
(1). Replace screens on the back porch with single hung, 1/1 vinyl
windows.
(2). Replace a window on the addition (not yet constructed) with a new
fiberglass door.
The current back porch located on the site (constructed in about 1995) is a
replacement for an earlier porch which appeared on the 1947 Sanborn map.
Converting an open sleeping porch to year-round living space by introducing
windows has been a common modification to houses in the residential historic
district. The space is not being enlarged or reduced, and the band of windows
with separating trim is an appropriate treatment.
The porch is not visible from the rights-of-way. The existing windows are 9/9 lite,
double hung, wood windows. The 1/1 single hung window configuration and size
are compatible with the style and period of the building, and appropriate for what
is essentially a rear addition. The proposed fiberglass door is a style compatible
with the structure, and the HPB has routinely approved similar doors for
secondary elevations although the issue of vinyl windows is a continuing issue
before the HPB.
