Tiffany ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Minyard" <BMinyard@littlerock.org> To: lotusflower@comcast. net Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2010 10:27:34 AM Subject: 1107 Cumberland notices Tiffany, I received your "Notice of Public Hearing" in the mail last week. I will require the green stamped copies from the post office providing proof that these were mailed and the letter from the abstract company showing the properties to notify. I will need this on or before October 4, 2010. I also received your list of products used in the modifications in the mail last week. Did I give you a sign and have you posted it. It needs to go up at least 10 days before 9/23/2010 2. Building Mass and Scale: "New buildings should appear similar in mass and scale with historic structures in the area. This includes height and width." The front of the house will face 15th Street. The house is proposed to sit 15' off both Rock and 15th Street property lines as required by code. The height of the proposed building is approximately 31 feet. With the bulk of the structure and the flat roof, the building's mass may appear larger than the surrounding structures. North (rear) Facade Rock Street (East) Facade West Facade 3. Building Form "Basic building forms and roof shapes, including pitch, which match those used historically in the area should be used. Location and proportions of entrances, windows, divisional bays, and porches are important. Also consider heights (foundation, floor -to -ceiling, porch height and depth.)" The house, as described by the applicant, is a modern interpretation of a "Four Square." The house is a square cube with a flat roof with a corner -recessed porch on the corner facing the intersection of the streets with the door facing 15th Street. It features three bedrooms and two baths on the top floor and public living areas with a half bath on the bottom floor. The applicant describes this house as a "modern four -square home." Roof: The flat roof is not compatible with the single-family structures in the District. There are structures with flat roofs as indicated by the letter "F" in the graphic below. However, these structures are multi -family structures, offices, or renovated school buildings that are now multifamily. These flat roof structures are not single-family homes. The "M" notation is for the mansard roof of the Villa Marre. 14 Page 2 of 2 the hearing.
