Mountain Ave. CALL TO ORDER AND ROLL CALL: Commission was called to order with a quorum present by Chairman Bud Frick at 4:15 p.m. at 281 N. College Ave., Fort Collins, Colorado. Angie Aguilera, Per Hogestad, Janet Ore, Ian Shuff and Myrne Watrous were present; Agnes Dix was excused. Carol Tunner represented City staff. GUESTS: Bill Worley and Anne Stewart, owners, and Steve Josephs, Craftsman Builders, for 1006 W. Mountain Ave. CURRENT REVIEW 1006 W. Mountain Ave., Judge Claude C. Coffin House — Addition to House, Final Review Construction Drawings -- Bill Worley and Anne Stewart, introduced by Carol Tunner. On February 25, the LPC gave complimentary review to preliminary plans for an addition. On March 10, 2004, the LPC found this property individually eligible for Fort Collins Landmark designation. At the time, the LPC recommended not adding a gable roof to the front of the addition, and a recommendation to match window heights on the rear windows. The LPC and the owners were in agreement on the plans, but the LPC requested more complete drawings before approving the addition. This meeting was called to review the final construction drawings to expedite the building permit for the project. Staff recommended the addition as meeting Standards #9 and #10. The addition is on the rear, and lower in height than the original house. The applicant has taken great care to meet the Standards and maintain the historic character of the home. The final drawings reflected changes requested by the LPC during complimentary review -- matching head heights of new windows with existing ones, eliminating the front gable end on the addition, and using compatible materials. Per Hogestad suggested adding notes to the drawings indicating that the roof slopes and eave overhangs of the addition and the existing portion of the house will match. Steve Josephs confirmed that the plans indicate that exterior finishes on the addition such as corner boards will also match the existing portion. Janet Ore complimented the applicants on the placement of the addition, and its compatibility with the existing building.
