Commissioners asked the applicant to resubmit clearer roof plans and aerial views showing which roof planes are visible from public ways, and to remove several lower‑roof panels currently oriented toward Fairgrounds Road and Tacoma Way.

Tobias, the project's presenter, told the board the project aims to place most panels on flat roof areas that are parapetted and therefore not visible from street level. \"The flat part of the roof... will not be visible,\" he said, adding that the project team would adjust layouts to address visibility concerns. Commissioners said they were especially concerned about panels sited on lower roof planes or small dormer areas that would be seen from Fairgrounds Road and the Tacoma Way frontage.

After discussion commissioners voted to hold the applications for revisions and asked Tobias to provide roof‑plan diagrams that clearly mark cardinal orientation and show visible panels, plus revised layouts removing the flagged panels. The applicant agreed to return with clearer roof plans and additional visualizations to help the commission assess public visibility and streetscape impacts.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Nantucket Historic District Commission - April 15, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Reviewing solar on multiple Tacoma Green buildings, the commission asked the applicant to remove or relocate panels visible from Fairgrounds Road and Tacoma Way and to return with clearer roof plans and view studies.","taxTitle","Nantucket County, Massachusetts","taxId",61456,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6273549,"HDC approves Essex Green trim for 32 Main Street storefront",373,5751000,6124000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2999639-868469392f22ef49eb1c3f5121db8e96&start=5751&end=6124","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2999639-868469392f22ef49eb1c3f5121db8e96/thumbnail_5751000.jpg","/articles/6273549/Nantucket-County/Massachusetts/HDC-approves-Essex-Green-trim-for-32-Main-Street-storefront","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6273549-8ae01666821f414508edc8d24d0c5117/orig.mp4?Expires=1770911754&Signature=V3MiqttlulFNmsEBdZo3T-uoD~RLX1~QRkfZ~7yjAelX97LRySDvKktlQjjp-2uNK8JGv5i8FvJQ6OeY~FQSV4irs9AVAfz~s79jXjnJF-hXUv8vEiArFPxfoFHn986xDfKocG867m~MidXl1SX5D-paibxMM1vbh4~SQ80mvdMuz4j1duu3kyMWLyYPcu2QbOB1oad9ab4QiUUh7Oty2oZv6Nqg7UDqQkm9g-NAe8AaQ636P2C3kGAadK9FYhOwEm1a7gpeXRYJeok9G9vX5HitYrbetdM0Y6SmvOjalIlKbjm71D9WxiyRrkTK6b0w0Aep4M89t4qYJ8aSc5s~AQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Nantucket Historic District Commission approved a trim‑color change for the storefront at 32 Main Street on April 15, voting to allow the first‑floor trim to be repainted to an Essex Green palette to match nearby storefront work.

Adrian Rodriguez, representing the property owner, told commissioners the request covers the first‑floor storefront area; the existing balustrade and upper‑story features are not part of the change. Mickey Rowland representing the Historic Structures Advisory Group said the group reviewed staff comments and did not oppose the change. Commissioners agreed the proposed color is already in use nearby and does not harm the streetscape.

The commission voted to approve the color change as submitted; commissioners clarified the permit covers the storefront trim and adjacent first‑floor doorway noted in the packet, and that the balustrade and second‑floor elements would remain the existing yellow.","The commission approved a trim color change for a Main Street storefront to match a neighboring approved palette; the balustrade will remain yellow.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6273554,"HDC approves move‑demo requests at 4 Van Fleet; proposed new dwelling held for revisions",111,2967000,3078000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2999639-868469392f22ef49eb1c3f5121db8e96&start=2967&end=3078","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2999639-868469392f22ef49eb1c3f5121db8e96/thumbnail_2967000.jpg","/articles/6273554/Nantucket-County/Massachusetts/HDC-approves-movedemo-requests-at-4-Van-Fleet-proposed-new-dwelling-held-for-revisions","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6273554-ae91535bacc7518e6197d55e5b90d0a2/orig.mp4?Expires=1770911754&Signature=XOXkLRdShOyTQOJZKZTmr4y9PCqiM~iVUTEjWj4kbLczwAZUbYt38TDstZLZ7hdBAyPcSSHgAOs0Ek2v5yfCGY3QKy4Yv2vkQOEGOUrpDxOU0wAXsGbLPZbQ-zwuB1rsSOLVsHivcDaXY~eI~P5c4C-YMynsNALewTJvQ0PdiGxAHIyxsqH10R24ueWBdxB6MKC6awuuXEQKuQlnLihO7Cvj8FuG5yESeWT5QtyDf69QKbo9bAoY2aVtN4YWowMC0vwHD3kdn7FoQ4y1J-jNz143ZqCuw-EnbucReMViI2fkkFFI13vi3xOVEQUFicjxjJ4jXNpG~uZsc96ATU7bkw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Nantucket Historic District Commission on April 15 approved two move‑demo requests at 4 Van Fleet and cleared a separate guest house application, but held the proposal for a new main dwelling for design revisions. The commission asked the applicant to lower the new house's perceived roof height and provide clearer ridge‑pole and roof‑line studies.

Agent Chip Webster told the panel he had “a party to take it as a move,” but requested a move‑demo approval in case relocation proved unavailable. Commissioners said the existing primary structure and a small guest house on the lot are noncontributing and approved move‑demo requests so the buildings may be relocated; the guest house permit was approved as submitted. The commission recorded votes in favor of the moves and the guest house approval.

For the proposed new dwelling, Chip presented a design of three staggered masses set deep on the parcel. Commissioners raised repeated concerns about the new home's overall ridge height and large picture windows on lower roof planes. Several commissioners asked that the design reduce the highest ridge by approximately two feet, show more varied ridge heights and present visual ridge‑pole studies to judge visibility from nearby vantage points. Commissioners also recommended the applicant reduce oversized door and window heights and provide clearer roof plans and view analyses for the next submission.

Outcome: move‑demo approvals were recorded and the new dwelling was held for revisions; the applicant agreed to return with amended drawings for the commission's old‑business agenda and to provide clearer visual studies of roof heights and visibility.","The commission approved move‑demo permits for two structures at 4 Van Fleet and approved a separate guest house application, but held a proposed new primary dwelling for revisions after design and height concerns.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6273559,"Historic commission affirms denial of Jack and Charlie freestanding sign",136,364000,500000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2999639-868469392f22ef49eb1c3f5121db8e96&start=364&end=500","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2999639-868469392f22ef49eb1c3f5121db8e96/thumbnail_364000.jpg","/articles/6273559/Nantucket-County/Massachusetts/Historic-commission-affirms-denial-of-Jack-and-Charlie-freestanding-sign","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6273559-87f6b3df9f4ff072097ed7b7c058ca57/orig.mp4?Expires=1770911754&Signature=flXDjDWoXQBWVlkst~TzlDiEz-4v5gYG0dVd9n~SHgmXv29O8DKa5Jchby8bqAwh7hokJpoG3JZAR6MiC~CDAIGebg2e66C5Hjp8ZETiTNjrDG-DKagJcEAvJHRUkG7Pxe3smnGDK1anPnR~D21vvWGkeSTsL4T2SukLrpYra1NiVZxHh~J8LvMkI6wcORlaL-rwtHwwH0WvOPH4EMTggecrbMpyvwPj-I60uUNB3GRut2RejqF39ptSb8YU7yLOiQ2of-FL98Oa1gDNwCb56blW36yM-9ZZjXFu3YyIuaNlB0F~AQYmyJHUmDJtXZeNxynRIlQ3yzt7dGZQUtj-mw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Nantucket Historic District Commission accepted the Sign Advisory Committee recommendation on April 15 to deny a freestanding sign application for Jack and Charlie after staff concluded the sign had been altered and no longer qualified for grandfathered status.

Staff member Nikki Sheriff told commissioners the committee had carefully reviewed photos and concluded the sign is a freestanding unit that had been altered, including bracket changes, and \"that disqualifies it from the grandfathered status,\" she said. The applicant or an agent attended and asked why the sign had been denied, Sheriff said.

The denial means the sign will not be permitted in place as presented. Commissioners voted to adopt the Sign Advisory Committee recommendation. Under the commission's sign guidelines, a freestanding sign may retain grandfathered status only if it remains essentially unaltered; staff said bracket changes and other modifications removed that protection. Sheriff told the panel the applicant could seek reapproval if the sign were returned to a pre‑altered form that meets the guidelines.

The commission did not cite any changes to town code at the hearing; the action followed existing HDC sign guidelines and the committee's review. Commissioners present said they relied on the photographs and staff explanation in making the decision.","The Nantucket Historic District Commission on April 15 accepted staff and sign‑committee findings and denied a freestanding sign application for Jack and Charlie, concluding alterations removed its grandfathered status.","actionData","errors"]
