Good Morning Brian -
Will it be ok for me to use the list of property owners that I purchased last summer for my certified
letters? I know of only one ownership change and I can easily obtain that address.

You must file for a COA to get the windows replaced. the website has the next filing deadline.
Based on the age of your house, do you have metal windows? The guidelines state on page 52: "However, if
replacement is necessary due to severe deterioration, the replacements should match, as closely as possible, the
original in materials and design." They did not have vinyl windows when your house was built.
Are your windows severely deteriorated or just leaky and drafty? That could be remedied with reglazing, a proper
maintenance technique, which could be taken care of without a public hearing.
Have you considered storm windows? That would require a public hearing, but would maintain the historic
windows in your house. This would also reduce drafts, if this is your issue.
The commission has said on numerous occasions that they do not approve 100% vinyl windows (PVC). They
have voted on approving wood windows with a vinyl or metal cladding on the outside. But each case is different
and the commission does not set precedence.
Please file for a COA with this department before any work starts.

Good Morning Brian!
It's been a while, but the work continues on. It's spring again! I'm sorry to hear that you're under
the weather. My name has changed since we last talked. I am Tonya Robinson of 501 E. 7th
Street. Remember me!!!
Anyway Brian, I want to install replacement windows for my house. My desire is to replace the
existing windows with 100% vinyl windows, similar in appearance to the ones that are already there. I need to find out what the rules are concerning replacement windows. I am in the process of obtaining estimates and would like to know this information as soon as possible. Thank you
for your time and attention once again. Hope you feel better soon!
