The house at 26 Smuggler Grove, next to the historic house at number 28, presently has gable wall windows on the north side (front of house) that has a 9" horizontal structural member between the lower set of windows and the upper set. The approved set of prints did not show this horizontal member, so a correction notice was posted. The rear windows were approved for the same horizontal members mainly to be able to attach the shade housing to, but the front window was not addressed. Consequently it was assumed that the front window could also have the same member in order to match the others so that the shade housing could be attached to it, which would provide some privacy, since there are several houses on that street. That structural member does add more strength to the wall of windows than the usual window mull strip does, which is a plus. Attached are pictures of the approved elevations as well as pictures of the house as it has been built. We respectfully ask that you approve our request to leave the installed windows as they are. Very respectfully, Don Glenn Simon Bentley Michael Smith Picture 1: Installed Windows on North elevation (front) that we request to be approved. P1 II.F.
