Mr. Lang commented that he understands that Landmarks postponed this proposal until the next regularly scheduled meeting in October. Mr. Biszantz expressed a concern that the job be expedited so that what is to be done is completed before winter. That is the reason this special meeting has been called. There was a question as to whether a special hearing needed to be held, the law director advised the clerk of commissions that in fact last month's meeting was the hearing, so the hearing is continued tonight. A rnajority of the Landmarks Commission is present so the commission is free to act accordingly. Mr. Lang then commented that there is a sample of the vinyl siding, which is white in color, approximately a 3 and 1/2 inch lap siding and the entire house would be sheathed with this vinyl siding. Mr. Biszantz commented that the main reason he is doing this is that the house needs insulation. The vinyl siding will cover the fish scaled siding that is currently'on the upper portion of the home. Mr. Biszantz added that there would; be no insulation on the attic because he does not use his attic. Mr. Lang commented that the pictures show a lap siding on the bottom of the house and at the top there is green fish scale shingle. Mr. Lang then explained that the board needs to know if there will be two different types of siding on the house after the work is done.
