PLANNING ACTION: 2008-01700
SUBJECT PROPERTY: 21 Winburn Way
APPLICANT: Thomas Beam
DESCRIPTION: A request for a Site Review for an exterior change to a Historic Contributing building and for
an intensification of use from retail to restaurant. Changes include window addition and ducting for kitchen
equipment. No additional square footage is proposed.
Mr. Skibby pointed out that this project was reviewed and approved as a PreApp in November and that the
current plans reflected the suggested changes. The applicants were not in attendance and there was no one
in the audience. There were no comments from other Commissioners.
Mr. Skibby made a motion to recommend approval of the project as presented. Ms. Renwick seconded the
motion and it passed unanimously.
DISCUSSION ITEMS:
PreApp for 479 A Street, Steve & Kathy Hoxmeier: Site review to add 2 rear decks. The Hoxmeiers were not
present and there was no one in the audience to speak. Several Commissioners commented that they did
not like the iron railing since it was not compatible with the rest of the railings on the front of the building.
They did approve using matching siding for the lower deck railing for privacy issues.
Chairman Shostrom made a motion to recommend approval with the condition that the upper deck
railings are to match existing deck railings, as the proposed wrought iron is not a compatible material.
The lower, cedar-sided deck is fine as shown. Mr. Whitford seconded the motion and passed
unanimously.
