Markham St. Lirtle Rock, AR 72201-1334 (501)371-4790 To whom it may concern: 1 am writing to request a Cerdfiraw of Appropriareness far exterior design changes at my property, 316 E. I t"' St, which is home ro my business, the Urile Rock Violin Shop. The proposed changes have been made with the help of Hannah Raul Exterior Design ConsuIEanr for Main Street Arkansas. The projcer will hopefully be funded in part by the Main Street Arkansas ,Mini-Granr Program. Proposed changes include exterior painting, improved signage, replacement skylights, and new terra costa coping on the pediment and parapet walls. The exterior painting will be limited to the doors, windows, trim, and gutters. The buildings brick exterior will remain unpainted. Signage improvements include a new wooden sign that will improve kgibiliry for our customers. The sign material will likely be maple, as maple is one of the principle materials used in the construction of violins. The building's skylights have produced water Icaks since the building was acquired in 2011. The plan is to tie new skylights into the building's existing TPO roofing membrane. The new skylights will be Birdview brand poly -domed skylights. The final change is to replace the existing white aluminum coping cap with more traditional terra corta coping caps. If possible, salvaged caps will be used, but given the need for 100fr of coping, new riles will likely be used. New riles will be obtained through Superior Clay Corporation. The installation of the tiles will require removing the existing coping, wrapping the top of the wall with TPO to create a watertight seal, and setting the new riles in a mortar bed. Joe Joyner Cover Letter Page 5 of 11 signs are illustrated to the right. For signs in the R4-A district, please consult Staff for further information. 3. Materials for signs: Materials used for signs should be traditional, such as finished wood, glass, copper, or bronze, not plywood, plastic, unfinished wood, neon or other internally lighted materials, or flashing lights. Materials should be compatible with the building materials. 4. Design of signs: The design of the signs should be appropriate to the building, in size, lettering, and style. Business logos or symbols are desirable. If several businesses share a building, coordinate the signs. Flashing, rotating, moveable, or portable signs should not be used. 5. Lighting of signs: Lighting of signs should be from remote sources, preferably from the ground aimed directly at the sign and shielded from street view. Lighting should not use visible bulbs, internal sources or luminous paint. 64 Excerpt of Guidelines Page 7 of 11 c. Bulkheads: Preserve, maintain, or repair bulkheads (kickplates) where they exist.

Replace missing architectural features and remove non -historic facades, which conceal the original facade and cornice. Decorative architectural features should not be added where none existed. c.

They also usually cover a large proportion of the visible facade. Window sashes should be preserved, maintained, or repaired according to size, number and arrangement of lights, materials, and decorative detailing. Windows should be visible, not concealed, enclosed, or covered. If privacy or shade is required, use interior shades, blinds or exterior awnings. 3.

Canvas, acrylic, or vinyl -coated materials are preferable to fixed metal or wood awnings. 4. Light Fixtures on Commercial Structures: Preserve, maintain, or repair exterior historic light fixtures. If historic light fixtures do not exist or require replacement, concealed light fixtures, fixtures of a simple design, or _ fixtures appropriate to the period of the building should be used. 1 Security lighting should intrude as little as possible on the integrity of the neighborhood.
