Hello Wheeler,
We were by 930 King Street yesterday and noƟced a couple of things that we wanted to bring to your aƩenƟon. The
rock being used for the maintenance border is much larger than the approved pea gravel, and the front walkway does
not match the approved design (see below). These things will need to be re‐done to match the permit prior to final
inspecƟon.
Thank you!

Hello Wheeler,
Monitors have approved the flower beds at the front of 930 King, asking that the 1’ border around the building is
respected as it appears in your drawing.
Thank you for your paƟence!

I understand, and appreciate your help. AƩached is the original site plan when the flowers were shown in front of the
fence. There is a plant list on the leŌ.
We would propose a similar plant list, just in front of the resource instead. Plant list will be reduced because the flower
bed isn’t as large, but the variety would be the same. Does that help?
Thanks,
Wheeler

Bear with me, Wheeler, as I’m sƟll coming up to speed and don’t have the background on this project that Amy does.
Was a planƟng schedule provided when the original flower beds were proposed near the fence? And are you proposing
the same with the updated flower beds by the building?
I understand you are trying to expedite this for your client but I’ll need to discuss with Amy when she is back in
tomorrow, as I don’t have as full of a picture on this project as she does.
Thank you for your patience!

For reference, the original permit approvals included a flower bed in front of the fence along the sidewalk. We removed
the fence and would like to put the flower bed directly in front of the resource instead. Please let me know the
monitor’s feedback. I know everyone is busy, but we are hoping to order plants tomorrow if possible. Thank you!

Thank you, Kirsten. We appreciate your help with this.
Do you think the monitors would approve a small flower bed in front of the rock border? Shown highlighted in greed
below. Or do they prefer the lawn right up to the rock border?

Good morning Wheeler,
I coordinated with the project monitors and they are looking for the removal of the dwarf boxwood hedge at the front
of the resource, highlighted below in pink. More sparse planƟng at the street facing façade would be more in keeping
with our historic guidelines. Please let us know how you’ll be proceeding so we can review the update.

Hi Amy and Kirsten,
Thank you for your Ɵme yesterday. It was good to meet you both in person finally.
Regarding the boxwood shrubs we discussed at 930 King, below is a snapshot of the areas we would like to plant Dwarf
Boxwoods that grow approximately 18”‐24” tall maximum. We intend to keep them trimmed to 18” tall. Please let me
know what the monitors think. Thank you for your help with this.

Hi‐ I reached out to the HPC project monitors for decisions on these requests.
Yes, you can forgo the property line fence shown in green in your images.
The proposed new side fence is to be no more than 42” tall to allow a view of the side of the historic home.
The hot tub cannot sit in any setback unless it meets the 30” above and below grade limit. HPC can’t give a variaƟon for
this.
Let me know if anything is unclear.

Hi Amy,
Hope this email finds you well. We are hoping to make some minor changes to permit 0127‐2021‐BRES. The permit
approvals show a fence around the front of the historic resource, see below. We would like to eliminate the fence. Is it
okay to simply not build it? Or do we need HPC approval?
12
Instead, we’d like to build a small fence and gate on the right side of the Historic Resource. Area indicated with an arrow
below.
13
Lastly, we would like to install a hot tub in the rear yard. A porƟon of it would be outside the setbacks. Are we allowed
to do this? Does the 30” rule apply to hot tubs?
