Applicable Guidelines
Village of Concord Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knox County Commission on October 22, 2001.
See Guidelines- External Wall Coverings: Wood
- 1. Wood siding and shingles or other features original to the building shall be repaired rather than replaced, and only modified at all if they are deteriorated.
2. If replacement of original features is necessary, the new materials shall match the old in size, placement, and design, including not only wood siding but also wood or asphalt shingles.
5. The application of synthetic or substitute materials such as vinyl or aluminum over original wood siding is not appropriate. To be approved, the application of these materials must not result in the concealment or removal of original decorative detailing or trim, including window surrounds. Synthetic siding materials should match the dimensions of the original wood siding as closely as possible. Care should be taken to have synthetic sidings vented on 12-inch centers.
- 6. Consideration for determining the appropriateness of a change in siding will be based on the following criteria:
- What is the age of the building?
- Is it contributing or significant to the district?
- Where is the building located within the district?
- Are the proposed changes visible from the street or on a primary façade?
- What is the age of the building?
- 10. Repair wooden features 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.
11. Wood features that are important in defining the overall historic character of the building should not be removed.
12. Replace only deteriorated wood. Reconstructing in order to achieve a uniform or "improved" appearance is inappropriate because of the loss of good historic materials.
13. 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 should be compatible with the original in size and scale. Replacement parts should be based on historical, pictorial and physical documentation.
