There was no quorum at the scheduled meeting time so an informal discussion was
held. A sales representative from Sherwin-Williams Paint met with the Commission
regarding Old Town and guidelines concerning color schemes, the procedures to be
followed on painting projects, etc.
Jim Reidhead from Old Town was introduced to the Commission. He stated he was in-
volved in :the painting project on Jefferson St.: and needed some clarification
as to whether the color scheme chart brought in at an earlier meeting by Ms. Gayle
Wernsman was approved at that time. Mr. Beardmore referred to the minutes from
the 8/5/81 meeting and stated they were approved as a general concept - that the
main reason for the chart was that there was some compatibility between the
property owners involved in this project on Jefferson Street. Mr. Reidhead
stated he was here primarily to set a precedent for doing this sort of work in
Old Town so that others wishing to do this would know the procedures. He then
presented his ideas for Scheme #5 (from color chart) stating he would be working
with the molding on the windows for effect along with painting the building and
to reestablish the rhythm of the windows on that building. Mr. Beardmore asked
if a building permit was needed for taking off the shingles. Mr. Lee clarified
that this was just a decorative item and a permit would not be needed.
Ms. 'Zemeckis stated she would like to see each owner submit their paint plans
for the Commission's approval.
Mr. Sundberg appeared at this time - there was now a quorum.
When asked what materials would need to be brought in by an applicant for a
painting project, Mr. Beardmore stated they would need to see an elevation of
the building in discussion as well as proposed colors for their review.
Mr. Reidhead stated that the Commission is dealing with an area which was hard
to enforce and that he wanted to help the Commission establish some precedent
for this type of work and what would be needed for their review.
Mr. Beardmore stated they would be receptive to any alternate plans of color
schemes and that color chips, and especially snapshots of the building would be
very helpful for their review. He stated that Mr. Reidhead could go ahead and
paint since they had approved the color chart as presented at the 8/5/81 meeting.
Mr. Reidhead then left the meeting.
MOTION MADE by Mr. Sundberg to table Items 5 & 6 on the agenda (action on minutes
of September 9, 1981 and discussion of Old Town Center Proposal). SECONDED by
Ms. Zemeckis. MOTION CARRIED.
