C.1.c - 1805 Waterston Ave - CCDC postponement request — original pdf

Again. Item C.1.0, 1805 Waterston Avenue *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** On behalf of the Clarksville Community Development Corporation (CCDC), I once again request that you delay making a decision on release of a demo permit for the contributing house located at 1805 Waterston in the Clarksville National Register District. As I have explained previously, CCDC representatives met with Jesse Nalle of Nalle Custom Homes on June 3. We knew the odds of convincing him not to demo the home were dismal, so we focused on suggesting changes to the new home he wants to build that would make it less ”suburban,” more Clarksville. In fact, we asked him to address some of the very issues that Kalan Contreras later pointed out in her staff report. And we offered to work with Mr. Nalle on revisions to his plans. Since our first meeting, we have communicated regularly with Mr. Nalle and his staff and have been told repeatedly that new plans would be coming soon. However, the plans you have on file are the same ones we saw on June 3rd. In other words, nothing has changed. I am an optimist so I want to believe that Nalle Custom Homes truly intends to do what it said it would. Postponing a decision on its request for a demo permit will give the company yet another chance to do that.

C.4.c - 1104 Toyath St - CCDC Postponement Request — original pdf

Most homes in Clarksville, even new ones, are relatively simple, but nothing about 1104 will be. It appears that Paradisa Homes completely ignored the architecture in the neighborhood and assumed that the kind of home it builds in the more suburban neighborhoods where it typically works, would be appropriate. Paradisa also ignored the impact of the home’s height on its neighbors and especially on the Lawson House, a historic landmark next door. It will loom over that house. More does not necessarily mean better and that is certainly true when it comes to the home Paradisa proposes to build. I therefore ask that the company go back to the drawing board and scale its plans way back so that 1104 Toyath better reflects the scale and style of other homes on the block and respects Clarksville’s unique history and traditional architecture. In order to do so, a meeting with the HLC’s Architectural Review Committee would seem wise. One final note: Months ago, representatives of the CCDC met with Luis Zaragosa of Paradisa to discuss its plans for 1104 Toyath. During the meeting, we suggested changes that would make the new home more appropriate for Clarksville. Although the plans on file indicate that the company did not make most of the changes we asked for, we do appreciate the fact that Paradisa relocated the carport to the back of the house. We also appreciate the size of the front porch. Both design features are good first steps, but there is much more work to be done before the home Paradisa Homes envisions will be right for the neighborhood. 1 Thank you for considering my request.

C.8.a - 1510 Ashwood Rd - citizen comment — original pdf

Allen, Amber From: Sent: To: Subject: maxsonia Friday, August 20, 2021 4:14 PM PAZ Preservation Property at 1510 Ashwood Road, Delwood Duplex Historic District *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** I received notification of an application for a building permit for the house at 1510 Ashwood Road in the Delwood Duplex Historic District, Case # HR 21‐119779. I own property nearby at 3902 Maplewood. The windows of the house are being replaced, and I assume are the items under discussion. I’m an architectural historian, formerly with the National Register Department of the Texas Historical Commission. I know that the metal casement windows found throughout the Historic District are now likely 70 years old and generally require maintenance. But these are also character‐defining features for the neighborhood, as virtually every house or duplex in the Districts does or did have casement windows, and the loss of these particularly at a house at the gateway of the neighborhood would have a negative effect, causing me to object. The windows that have already been replaced at this property seem to be tinted plate glass with fake interior muntons. These detract from the historic character of the property for at least four reasons: ‐ They have no shadow lines, which to the eye define divided light windows ‐ They divisions are different than those of the historic casement windows ‐ The tinted glass is non‐historic, and it sometimes totally obscures that there are any muntin elements at all ‐ The introduction of those windows sets a precedent in the neighborhood When I was at the Historical Commission and reviewed similar cases, the in‐house nickname for such windows was "The Orphan Annie Look,” as the windows read as large black eyes where divided light clear windows belong. The circa 1950 architecture of the district was at a time of few embellishments, very simple. The windows are distinctive, and certainly worth restoration or replacement in kind.

C.9.c - 82 San Marcos Street - citizen comment — original pdf

Allen, Amber From: Sent: To: Subject: Sunday, August 22, 2021 6:01 PM PAZ Preservation 82 San Marcos St case # PR-21-113815 This message is from Sylvia Marroquin. I received a notice of the hearing on the demolition of the property located at 82 San Marcos on Thursday. I see that the letter was dated for mailing on Aug 12. I do not believe that a local letter should take over a week to be delivered. In any case, the mailing date and the delivery dates are 2 very different things. I do not believe that enough notice has been given to all my neighbors to have the hearing as scheduled . I object to having the hearing until all interested parties are properly notified. Additionally, I would like to add that I went by the house and found the sign lying on the ground behind tall weeds. not visible to the street! The house in question in inside of the Willow Spence National Historic district. The entire district is comprised of 4 blocks total. Thus far we have had no one try to destroy any of our historic homes. The house in question is by far in better condition than my house at 908 willow street was when I purchased it. I restored my home! The house will need some updating as all these 1920‐ 1930's homes do, but it is not a tear down. There are plenty of homes all over the east side that developers can buy and tear down without hardly any problem. This house is in a National Historic District. If the buyers of this property did not like the house and had no intention of restoring, then they should not have bought it. It was their choice! Do not set a precedent that it is okay to tear down the homes in the Willow Spence National Historic District!! We must work to preserve the homes . It is only 4 blocks! Please do not allow historic homes to be torn down and contemporary style homes be built in these 4 little blocks!! 1

B.2.0 - 907 Congress Ave — original pdf

B.2 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS JULY 26, 2021 C14H-1986-0015 GRANDBERRY BUILDING 907 CONGRESS AVENUE PROPOSAL PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Review of a plan to deconstruct, store, and re-erect historic building façade. Catalog and store, then re-erect the historic building façades of the Grandberry Building, Mitchell-Robertson Building, and the building at 911 Congress Ave. as part of a redevelopment project at a later date. In conjunction with proposed additions, deconstruction and reconstruction of these façades has received approval from the Historic Landmark Commission on three separate occasions: September 25, 2006 (for 907 and 909 Congress Ave. only), January 26, 2015 (pending development of more detailed plans for treatment of the three façades), and June 25, 2018. See Prior Commission Action below. On March 24, 2021, the Building Standards Commission (BSC) issued an order requiring that conditions be remedied within 90 days or imposing fines on the property owner. The BSC orders are uploaded as backup to this meeting for reference. In discussion at the April 24, 2021 meeting, Commissioners suggested that the applicant determine if scaffolding erected for purposes of documenting and dismantling the façades would suffice for compliance with the BSC orders. The orders do not mention stabilization or bracing as options, and Code Department staff have confirmed that scaffolding would be insufficient to meet the requirements. Instead, the orders require repairs to fully remedy the violations, which include cracks and openings in exterior walls, roof and drainage issues, and missing windows, among other concerns. Per the applicant, stabilization and repair of the buildings in place is not technically feasible due to the extent of deterioration, including mortar loss, shear failures and racking, and the inability to adequately shore the façades following demolition of masonry party walls that provide lateral support. In particular, the wall abutting the Mutual Building, an adjacent historic landmark, requires demolition to allow that property owner to perform needed repairs. The proposed scope of work entails developing a detailed plan for deconstruction and reconstruction of the historic façades, including as an initial phase: review of existing documentation, visual and non-destructive analysis of building materials and assemblies, structural evaluation, and development of a finalized scope of work and sequence of implementation. Laser scanning has been performed, and analysis of the resulting point cloud is underway. Deconstruction will be done by hand and treated much like an archeological investigation, with specific conditions and …
