Their lot has chain link fence on both sides and they would just like to close in the yard. <br />They will not remove the wood siding they will be placing the vinyl siding over the wood siding. <br />P. Barker motion to asldress fencing and siding separately. B.

Mr. Miller indicated that the rear of his property is not visible from the street. <br />J. Lang motion to grant Mr. & Mrs. Miller of 25455 Butternut Ridge Road a letter of <br />appropriateness for a section of chain link fence. P. Barker seconded the motion which was <br />unanimously approved. <br />The applicant indicated that he would repair any damaged wood siding before placing the vinyl <br />siding over the wood siding. Mrs. Davis thought that if the wood siding was cedar it could be <br />sealed but not stained. Mr. Schumann thought the wood siding was stained or treated pine. The <br />board inquired if the applicant would be siding his home himself. Mr. Miller indicated that he <br />would be doing the siding and fencing. The applicant will do the siding in sections during <br />multiple weekends. Mr. Schumann voiced that the existing siding was in very poor condition <br />and was not worth restoring nor did he think it was historic. The home was built in 1956 and <br />aluminum siding was available at that time. Mr. Rerko strongly suggested the applicant look <br />behind the wood siding to determine what is causing the wood not to dry out. He advised the <br />applicant that if the siding is placed over the wood before it is dried out mold could become a <br />problem. <br />J. Lang motion to grant certificate of appropriateaaess for insulation of vinyl siding over <br />existing repaired shingle shake siding.
