Burbank, Senior Planner DATE: March 12, 2010 RE: 7310 Lamar Certificate of Appropriateness Introduction At the last two regular meetings of the Advisory Committee on Historic Preservation (ACHP) meetings, a request for the issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness was discussed for the Historic FurberNandenberg House 7310 Lamar Avenue, which is on the City and National His- toric Landmark Registers (SHPO #WA-CGC-001). The issuance of a Certificate of Appropriate- ness requires review by the City ACHP, the City Council, and the State Historic Preservation Office. Based on the materials presented to the ACHP and the discussions held at the committee meetings, the ACHP is recommending that the Council approve a conditioned Certificate of Ap- propriateness for a phased modification to the exterior of the structure at 7310 Lamar Avenue in "Old Cottage Grove.,, Honorable Mayor, City Council, and Ryan Schroeder Comprehensive Plan Revisions March 12, 2010 Page 2 of 3 Wayne and Angi Butt have acquired the property and are anxious to begin the process of making modifications and improvements to the house. They have hired an architect and initiated the process of the issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness and subsequent building permit. Based on discussions with the State Historic Preservation Office and review of the Secretary of Interiors standards related to additions to historic properties, several minor design modifications were identified. This information was shared with the applicant and the ACHP. The Committee reviewed the first draft of the expansion drawings for the structure modifications. After a general discussion, the consensus of the ACHP was that with minor changes, the proposed preliminary plan details were consistent with preservation standards and policies of Cottage Grove. The pur- poses of the recommended changes were to create a subtle design modification or treatment that will give a visual clue in the design that distinguishes the old from the new, and to have the mass of the new additions be less than the existing structure. It was also noted that is impor- tant that the current architect's personal style and interpretation of the existing design style is evident and not just a mirror copy of existing conditions. The applicants were in favor of the identified design modifications and are in the process of making the changes that are to be incor- porated into the final drawings that will be subject to approval by the Building and Planning staff. Modifications detail as discussed ACHP member Judy Spooner was not able to attend the meeting but offered the following comment: On the Lamar property: Their plans look wonderful and appropriately in theme with old home. It carries out what might have been built there and is keeping with era in which it was built. I'd love to do a feature story on this as it gets going. It's going to be a great addition to the community there.
