Mr. Ulewicz reviewed that his basement was originally the barn of the Rodriques home when it was first built. He believes that the home was placed over the garage foundation in 1914. The new roofline would be consistent with the existing roofline. All the existing windows on ttle home aze casement windows and that would be continued. An existing window from the home would be reused on the front of the addition. He could not find a ma.tch for the sandstone brick and liked the look of stucco or cedar siding and has tried to pick a color that would work with the two different sandstone colors. Mr. Schumanai questioned if the converted garage would be addressed when the addition was added. Mrs. Lord advised that if the applicant was not sure of the materials he may want to return as the materials must be listed in the certificate of appropriateness. Mr. Uiewicz said he wouid use cedar planking on the garage & addition and showed the color chosen. He voiced that he did not want to use a brick or brick like substance that did not match the existing materials. He does not want the addition to stand out. Mr. Schock questioned if the applicant would be willing to brick the east side and current garage of the home. Mr. Ulewicz said due to the additions 2 foot overhanging the wood frame could not support a brick load. Mr. Schumann said the overhang wa11 would require a steal lentil framing to handle the brick load. The suggestion of speaking with Mr. Kula from KIA to possibly being allowed to save and reuse the sandstone brick from the home scheduled for demolition took place. Mr. LJlewicz advised that he would ask KIA for a sample of their sandstone but would not want to use the sandstone unless it matched his existing sandstone block. M.
