Good afternoon Jill,
Please see attached COC. I will also send this over to Michael, so he has it for his records. I'm glad a solution could be
found!
Thank you for your apology, it is very sincere and meaningful, and I whole heartedly appreciate it. I understand the
frustration, especially with all you have going on and it being the result of an attempt to help a neighbor. Another
problem to solve can be the straw that breaks the camel's back when we have too many things to carry and nothing we
feel we can set down or set aside. I'm glad to hear your foot surgery went well! Any physical issue or concern always
makes me anxious. I hope your recovery is smooth and the work you are doing for each building in your care goes as
planned so you can rest easy! I'm happy to work with Haley for the other projects. She's welcome to call or email for
assistance. I'll be out of office most of next week attending the window restoration workshop hosted by QQA but will be
checking emails periodically to not get too behind.
Thanks,

Thank you Hannah, I was just going to call you today because I hadn't seen anything but I had talked to Michael so he
told me it was coming. Thank you so much for working with him. He's a very happy camper.
Also, I wanted to take a moment to apologize. The last time we spoke, I regret that I shared some of my frustrations with
our historic policies with you. I was out of line and I'm really sorry. I had a serious procedure done on my foot last
Friday which has had me very anxious. The surgery went well, but I'm supposed to be in bed or on crutches for the next
three months and I guess that, and all this construction, has had me a bit frazzled. This is not an excuse, but hopefully
an explanation of my unfounded rudeness. While I am sure we will have disagreements in our future together, you have
been nothing but wonderful to me and you merit incredible respect in your position, and I will strive to give you that
respect.

Anyway, I may ask my construction manager, Haley Shelton, to deal with you directly on our 8th street Victorians or
1107 Cumberland, if she needs advice. For the fence, I will put her in touch with the homeowner and give her a copy of
the COA so the fence issue should resolve itself shortly.
Thank you for all you do Hannah.
Warm Regards,
Jill

Good afternoon Jill,
Michael Stotts, 512 E 8th property owner, gave me a call and requested that the fence be moved back to
just behind the second window from the front. I think this suggestion is an amicable location and we can
move forward with a COC if that works with you. Is the fence on his property or your property? If it is
his, then a signed affidavit will need to be provided with you as the representative. Attached is a draft
COC for your review.

Good afternoon Jill,
I wanted to check back in with these projects. Have you had a chance to work with the
neighbor on a solution on the privacy fence compliance?

Thank you Hannah, this is amazing! I will take me up second or two to absorb some of
this and figure out a plan of action but this really is great information. Thank you so
much for your help!

Good afternoon Jill,
To follow up with the projects we looked at earlier this week:
514 E 8t" — Privacy Fence Compliance: The existing privacy fence will
need to be moved backwards, away from the street, at least to the first
inset of the home at 512 E. 81h. See attached street view with red line
marking the location. This correction can be administratively approved.
If you'd like to keep the fence where it is currently, you'll need to go
3
before the Commission and request a variance. I suggest that
landscaping be used for 512 E 81h to regain privacy.
514 E 81h — Porch step railing: I've located photos of the missing railings.
Both structures were listed to the National Register in 1982.
Photographs from their nominations show the original railings (photos
attached). It looks like the railings were removed at some point. The
replacement of both railings will need to be processed as a COA.
1107 S. Cumberland — Replacement Windows: I've talked with the
National Register staff about this case and Ralph has clarified that the
front 6-over-1 windows were originally 6-over-6. According to our
casefile records, the original windows were all replaced without a
permit in 1994. In 1995, the vinyl replacements on the sides and rear
were approved retroactively (ugh), and the front windows were
conditioned to be wood, but they allowed them to be 6-over-1 rather
than the original 6-over-6. Ralph has also suggested that the 9-over-6
windows with transoms were likely 9-over-9 originally, no transoms. If
you are replacing the front windows, I believe we would suggest they be
returned to the 6-over-6 configuration. For the side windows that
currently have transoms, 9-over-9 wood replacements would likely be
an amicable solution. The windows would need to be a COA.
507 E 7th — porch top rail replacement: Let's do a COC on this when you
are ready to address the other wood repair issues.
Are there any other projects I forgot to dig into?

Very cool! Thank you Hannah. I don't
know where the week went. Do you
think you might have time to get
together tomorrow at 2:30? If not, I
have any afternoon open next week
except Friday. Choose a time that's
good for you and we can make it
happen.
Talk Soon,

Good morning Jill,
Checking back with you
to see when you
wanted to meet on site
in the district? Also, I
found a photo from
1969 that might
interest you for your
project at 515 E
8t" Street. It's an aerial
view of the district from
1969. It shows what
6
515 E 81" looked like
without a staircase in
the front.
