Modification of previously-issued COA (3-E-24-HZ), related to the siding. Revised application proposes to use smooth, 4" exposure, fiber cement siding instead of using wood lap siding to replace deteriorated wood siding.

E. Wood Wall Coverings
1. Synthetic siding is inappropriate and is not allowed either as replacement siding on existing buildings or new siding in new construction.
3. Replacement siding must duplicate the original. Trim and patterned shingles that must be replaced must also duplicate the original material.
5. Wooden features shall be repaired by patching, piecing-in, or otherwise reinforcing the wood. Repair may also include limited replacement with matching or compatible substitute materials, when elements remain and can be copied.
6. Wood features that are important in defining the overall historic character of the building shall not be removed.
7. Replace only deteriorated wood. Reconstructing in order to achieve a uniform or "improved," "new" appearance is inappropriate because of the loss of good historic materials.
8. An entire wooden feature that is too deteriorated to repair or is completely missing shall be replaced in kind. If features are replaced, the materials they are made from shall be compatible with the original in size, scale and material. Replacement parts should be based on historical, pictorial and physical documentation.
