OVERVIEW AND BACKGROUND
According to the 2008 Residential Area Intensive Survey (RAI), the single-family house was constructed circa 1910 and is in good condition with low integrity. The building features the National Gable Front architectural style. Synthetic siding, replacement windows, multiple additions to each side of the house and interior chimney are the alterations listed on the RAI Survey.
The building is considered a Non-Contributing Structure to the Old Orland Historic District per Section 6-209 of the Land Development Code.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION & CONTEXT
The petitioner proposes to replace the existing gray asphalt shingle roof and white gutters on the entire house and garage with a new similar asphalt shingle material. The petitioner proposes to install Owens Corning Duration Williamsburg Gray shingles, and white gutters. The contract specification sheet indicates the color and material of the proposed roof.
Section 6-209.F.3.e.1 states “New or replacement roofs of wood or asphalt shingles are appropriate...Asphalt shingles should be simple, flat and smooth, and in an appropriate color.” The proposed replacement roof material is appropriate and is similar in appearance to the existing shingles.
Per Section 6-209.G., changes to roofs are considered a minor change, which requires an administrative Certificate of Appropriateness review for Non-Contributing Structures in the OOH District.
Overall, the project conforms to the Village’s Comprehensive Plan, Land Development Codes and policies for this area.
Recommended Action/Motion
The Certificate of Appropriateness to replace the existing roof at 14414 First Avenue, as depicted on the scope of work and roof specification sheets submitted by the petitioner, was administratively approved on August 27, 2024, subject to the following conditions:
1) Meet all Building and Land Development Code requirements.
2) Obtain a building permit prior to construction.
