DATE: October 19, 1999
• FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL STAFF: Karen McWilliams
SUBJECT:
First Reading of Ordinance No. 158, 1999.Designating the Bumett/Killgore House and"Outhouse",
128 North Sherwood Street.. as a Historic Landmark Pursuant to Chapter 14 of the City Code.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. At a public hearing held on
September 22, 1999, the Landmark Preservation Commission unanimously recommended
designation of this property as a local landmark for its architectural importance..
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The owner of the property,Jan Krucky,is initiating this request for Local Landmark designation for
the Bumett/Killgore House and "Outhouse". The building and structure are significant for their
architectural importance,as representative examples of vernacular residential architecture typical of
the turn of the century.
History - The wood frame home, built in circa 1900, is significant as a representative example of
vernacular residential architecture,with Queen Anne elements. Character defining elements include
an intersecting gable roof,with decorative shingles in the gable ends;the shed roof front porch,with
an offset entry highlighted by a small gable roof; the narrow horizontal wood siding; vertically
oriented fenestration:and boxed eaves and returns. A bay window was added to the south elevation
in 1997. At the same time. a sliding glass door was added to the rear mudroom, converting it into
additional living space. An unpainted wooden shed roof structure,originally an outhouse or possibly
a small storage building, dates from the period of significance and contributes to the architectural
importance of the property.
City directories list the earliest known residents of the property as William L. and Eva Burnett,and
W.A. and Anna Killgore. Mr. Burnett worked as a clerk for the Tyler-Lowe Mercantile Company,
while the Killgores operated the Killgore Bookstore. The house is not known to be associated with
any significant people or events. Instead,through the years,the house has led a rather commonplace
existence,serving predominantly as a rental. The current owner,Jan Krucky, is returning the house
to its original use as a single family residence.
