Project Analysis The subject residential single-family dwelling property is a historic landmark (designated in lgSg) as well as a contributing structure to the "Stambaugh-Heller Historic Residential District". The original contract agreement with the previous property owners dates back to February of 1992. In lgg5 the property owners requested an amendment to modify one of the contract conditions affecting the roof, gutters and spouts. The property was subsequently sold to the current owners in lg97 (the Mills Act contract carried over with the title of the property). All work done on the subject property since the adoption of the Mills Act contract has conformed to the historic preservation standards adopted by the City, in general comp;lance to MBs Act contract agreement. As a result, the subject historic property has been well maintained and improved. At the time of the last Mills Act Contract inspection several months ago, the property owners submitted a proposal (Attachment 2 and Exhibit "C" of Contract) to modify the original program (Attachment 1). These changes include the addition/repair of new historically compatible preservation work (fencing and workshop), a request to retain an existing detached non-conforming structure in the back yard, (which provides a screen from neighboring apartments and does not detract from the original character of the main structure ) and the elimination of an original condition to add rail ornamentation above two bay windows (which has since been determined not to be historically original, as referenced in archival photographs).. The following is a summary and comparison of both contracts: (In italics are original items which were modified or carded over ~ ) ,( new items are underlined) ORIGINAL PROPOSED Year 1 Misc. work done (except for window repair) ~ Window & staircase repair done Year 2 Garage roof repair and workshop removal ~ _ Interior work done (orig. years 4,5) Year 3 Roof replacement, gutters and spouts.~_ ~ Garage, workshop bathroom roof done Year 4 Interior work flooring done ~ Stairwell done Year 5 Upper bath ceiling (done), staircase repair" ~ New eastside fence done Year 6 House plumbing and rewire as needed done ~ Replace roof, gutters and spouts Year 7 Removal of added closets done Year 8 Interior work plaster done ~NewRepaintdrivewayeXteri°rs Year 9 Repair side porch (done) and rearporch~---~ Rear porch upgrade Year10 Repaint interior (done) and exteriors ~- Garaqe e ectr ca work, workshop repair In summary, the contract timelines have been reorganized to respond more accurately to the most current condition needs of this specific historic landmark and will also meet to the property owner's work program. Both HRAC and staff have inspected the premises and support the proposed work revisions and timelines. The subject proposal is considered a continuation of the property's historic preservation work program that will insure the long-term preservation of the property.
