Glidden House 232 E. Hallam The meeting opened to old Business and a Public Hearing on the proposed remodel and the addition to the Vigoda residence at 232 E. Hallam by Stan Mathis, better known as the Glidden House. Stan Mathis open by showing a site plan to the members, and photo's where he would like to place the garage; Also showing the stone patio the members had requested at the preliminary review, and showing now a lot of lilacs, and flowering srubs and trees on the street side inside the property line, removing the burm which screened the addition from the street,and the public with the use of greenry. The addition has not changed much from the la~ presentation, except for the sky light might not be the same, and this meeting to look at different placements for the garage, Stan Mathis showed the photo's and explained the the angles of the pho~'s on the placment of the garage, stating that he does not feel its right to ask his client to tear down a useable structure as the shed is, and the shed is probably only fifteen years old, discussion continued with the members still having problems with the placement of the garage,There will be the required five feet left to the property line, giving the neighbor with his house his five feet to property line. Stan Mathis explained that his clients have gone through a lot split, but they are not planning to build an other house of the property, on the north east corner. The members decided to look at the addition, then come back and discuss the garage, which seems to have quite a lot of difference of opinions on; The addition has been changed to ahear to the wishes of most of this board present at the last meeting, which is the decking has been changed to a stone patio, the burn has been eliminated, replaced by lilacs, crab apples trees, clump birch, conifers, for the cleint wants immediate landscaping, and al~o privicity. There will be a sky light, but perhaps not the one shown in the preliminary review, and Stan Mathis will come back to the committee, with samples of the choice of rock either a cory stone, or a moss rock, six inches thick, in a grey green. Terry End said she is in favor of the contemporary addition to old building but she feels this addition detracts from the victorian house, and has no relationship to it at all, especially the frasion rock effect. Mona Frost said she felt the addition was far enough away and back that you would not see it, and with all the snow cover and planting in front, not even from the street. Gretchen Greenwood said she thought it was a very nice addition, it has good contrast, and looks like separate homes, and she likes the idea of the rock also, but would like to see the samples and the color of the rock. Connie Mc Crudden said she like the additon very much. Georgeann Waggman said after listening to the other members comments, that for the most part are in favor of the addition, with the exception of Terry End, with the reservatioh of what the things look like, color and samples should be brought in, and that this matter be handle in two different motions, one being the garage and its placement, and the other the new addit~Qn. Gretchen Greenwood moved to approve the additon the eastern side of the addition, excluding the garage and the shed, with the condition that Stan Mathis will come back before HPC with the skylight, and to bring samples and some pictures of this type of stone, and how it was used elsewhere, or the fracture rock on the exterior, seconded Mona Frost, all in favor, with the exception of Terry End, motion carried. Discussion continued on the garage with memebrs each giving there opinions on the subject; Mona Frost said she would like to see the garage be put back farther, and instead of going into the mud room, go into the arbor then into the kitchen,and this would be possible if the garage was moved back. Grechen Greenwood replied, she wants no visual impact of the garage on the side of the building, the garage should be incorpated into a flat roof construction, so this is one building and this is one building, and not a lot of excess buildings to effect the facade. Georgeann Waggama~, said on reviewing the comments the thoughts seem to lead to, if Stan Mathis wanted to eliminate the garage, keep the shed, keep the breeze way, keep the kitchen, that he would not have to come back to HPC except for the color and choice of rock and the skylight, and the pictures this board has asked for. Stan Mathis said that the houses on Main Street, the owners do not like the color so Stan will come back to HPC on this item also, this spring. The site plan was stamped with the HPC stamp of approval, with the garage circle the garage as not being approved as of this date. New Business: Nunn Residenc~etter from the as follows. 1.

There are three exsisting chimneys in the house now, but two of them only go down to the second floor, the other one will be rebuilt, and look more like the chimney next door.
