Consider, and act upon, approval of exterior renovations in accordance with Ordinance
No. 2013-17, generally located on the westside of Birmingham, south of Marble and
north of Oak Street and more specifically at 104 N Birmingham, Lot 8, Block 2 of the JW
Keller's First Addition within the Downtown Historic District. ....
Staff Presentation
Ms. 011ie stated that the property is located at 104 N Birmingham. The
Owner/Applicant is Taylor and Son Properties, LLC and desires to perform
modifications and alterations to the building. Renovations include new
electrical, new plumbing, new HVAC, add bathrooms, encase exterior with
Hardi type board siding, relocate some windows, add ramp in rear, open front
porch to period style. Staff initially reviewed the plans on relocation of
windows, and later realized that some of the windows will actually be
removed.
Board Discussion
Commissioner Heath questioned the purpose of removing some of the
windows. Mr. Sam Taylor, Taylor and Son, 2137 Highland Drive, applicant
for the subject property, stated that the use for the building will be computer
store. The windows allow sunlight and not convenient for computer. The
windows on the sides will be removed. The windows in the front and back
will be either replaced or relocated.
Mr. Bryan Rogers, 511 Rustic Place, representing the Designer, stated that the
porch will be remodeled to original configuration. The exterior will include
Radiant Bearing, and the Hardi Board will be installed on top of the
installation board. The Hardi Board will have appearance of wood lapped
siding..
The rear porch will include a full accessible ADA ramp.
The attic, skirting around the base of the building, and all trim work is not
structural, therefore are not shown on the plans. The trim work will be done
by the applicant.
The windows will be clad or composite, which is hard to tell the difference
from a wood window and clad. The clad window is more energy efficient, and
weather proof. The back will not have windows, due to location of the
restrooms.
The Commissioners expressed concern of plans submitted does not match the
description from Mr. Rogers or Mr. Taylor. The Commissioners expressed
desire to see cut sheets, detailing the renovations, and location of all windows,
with additional windows on both sides of the house.
