Commissioners repeatedly cited lack of visibility from the public way — because Pochik ends and the private driveway and heavy vegetation screen the site — as a central factor in their decisions.

Applicant representatives presented winter photographs and renderings to show “worst-case” visibility, arguing that heavy vegetation and neighboring parcels prevent public views of the new buildings. The design team described the proposal as a pavilion-style plan with most volumes low and set far back; the highest ridge was noted as 28 feet for the main structure. Commissioners raised concerns about fenestration scale, flat roofs and contemporary details that would not typically be approved in a visible location, but several members said past precedent supports approvals when visibility is minimal.

Ray moved to approve the principal house and all accessory structures subject to a condition that existing vegetation be maintained or supplemented so the lack of public visibility remains at the time of inspection and thereafter. The motion carried (recorded opposition on some items during debate but final tally carried). Subsequent motions approved the garage, shed, office, gym and pool, each with the same vegetation-maintenance condition noted in the COAs.

For administrative clarity, the commission also approved the pool and a small pergola in the rear with the same condition to preserve screening. Staff and commissioners noted applicants will be expected to meet standard COA inspection requirements and that final landscaping details would be monitored during inspections to ensure the screening is sustained.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Nantucket Historic District Commission - June 3, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The commission approved a new main dwelling, garage, shed, office and gym for a Pochik Road property, finding most structures would be effectively invisible from public ways; approvals were conditioned on maintaining or supplementing vegetation to preserve that lack of visibility.","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},6217687,"HDC approves gray Benjamin Moore paint; door to be white or darker blue by chair approval",21,1276000,1297000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3643221-4a5d521454283a6729dfc09f44eb0e7c&start=1276&end=1297","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3643221-4a5d521454283a6729dfc09f44eb0e7c/thumbnail_1276000.jpg","/articles/6217687/Nantucket-County/Massachusetts/HDC-approves-gray-Benjamin-Moore-paint-door-to-be-white-or-darker-blue-by-chair-approval","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6217687-d3b406ede600bab2f588bb8d23106bf3/orig.mp4?Expires=1770995619&Signature=MSrThQp2cUVBH3EqDVLWJn63XgWZCRlM4sCxpgcK2j5VXU89scq1u-MYVJms2NGlvdMpaad6-4ipvQc-47Ta6aIDoH5ku8qMIR3GwxSlzHflye8MkH9EkkZEJ9GMEO~6ndSKSLNqD-QLq6wh4hDvPer8LGqzgSnXap6Cu~Vkm-1-j8ZyfAP1Wuug8zAMDZtAC0vntGEhnnlQ336WDOZf9z8mX56yC-0bN3O6C-fbhrq3g2Z3UcZ09ZYHPPiDOdLRjENdkGCAwvVWTflQ5WkcBnxS3-A-K2q45OnmHhQeUcxLVUszGRPAchm3bPFf0fHxgSfAFOunGSUAyKa06U3hzA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Nantucket Historic District Commission approved a paint and trim scheme and a conditional door color for an application described as the “view from 52719 Lily Street.” Commissioners reviewed a live paint swatch and, after several members said the on-site sample read grayer than online samples, approved Benjamin Moore 1634 for the house siding.

Commissioners agreed the proposed blue door appeared “brighter” in person than shown online. The applicant offered two options: paint the door the same trim color (white) or submit a darker complementary blue for approval. The commission’s motion approved the siding color and allowed the chair or vice chair to approve the final door color between those two options.

During the discussion, several commissioners said the field sample was acceptable, while some asked that the chair be allowed to require the door be modified to a darker tone if the chosen blue proved too vivid at inspection. The motion passed with one commissioner recorded as opposed; the chair recorded the overall outcome as carrying.

The HDC recorded the approval with the condition that the door either be painted white or a darker complementary blue submitted to and approved by the chair or vice-chair at final inspection. The decision was administrative and did not change other approved details of the application.","Commission approved trim and siding in Benjamin Moore 1634 (gray) for a dwelling on Lily Street, with the applicant required to change the door to either white or a darker complementary blue subject to chair or vice-chair approval.",{"_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},6217692,"HDC names Anne White Gray as Section 106 representative",255,248000,503000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3643221-4a5d521454283a6729dfc09f44eb0e7c&start=248&end=503","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3643221-4a5d521454283a6729dfc09f44eb0e7c/thumbnail_248000.jpg","/articles/6217692/Nantucket-County/Massachusetts/HDC-names-Anne-White-Gray-as-Section-106-representative","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6217692-9b866e9beab0a56f04a1a00d39611532/orig.mp4?Expires=1770995619&Signature=Tx7woOV7RgVrqMqkywdZs1SP5hXkDj-ZBai-iRw8Kp4C3AQ5ZstmHvFyJZJu18PaaSPEjxX6n43pWC0KRZqxCHLH3aB1LFj4SWXmBfFinFUXCDIsb0XEwYWVmndb9n5QTXcR-5~pGPqCtnsh-wwjarBC0w3z1vKYt7hanGZW6Pqz031lCkQKZITN~l6-YNLaQfA0eNhRoqS-kHEnrHrWIuLw30SqczFgi7nG~ziXtWSARdVXXyQhfHfYAavVRMZM0qwBK7CM0I6nSNuyzbNidmiMcNcVVLTQ3dUs8wamaBuu9VCTmwIcZ-D9Ao3~1jPCyLmwgcjTObsMVW70fFtk~A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Nantucket Historic District Commission on Tuesday voted unanimously to appoint Anne White Gray as the commission’s Section 106 representative, the member who will serve as a consulting party on federal reviews that could affect the island’s National Historic Landmark district.

The commission discussed the role ahead of the vote, noting Section 106 reviews apply when projects receive federal funding and may affect historic properties. Preservation planner Holly said the federal Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) and other agencies typically contact the town when such reviews start and that she would notify the Section 106 representative when applications arrive. “If there are applications that come to Nantucket, typically the historical commission reviews the Section 106 applications,” Holly said.

Commissioners described the position as a mix of attending federal meetings, reporting back to the HDC and, in some circumstances, advocating the commission’s agreed policy positions. The chair said the representative could report observations or, if a topic was likely to be controversial, the commission could agree a policy stance in advance for the representative to present.

Ray volunteered for the role at the discussion’s opening, but the formal nomination and vote named Anne White Gray as the representative. The chair called for a motion to nominate Anne White Gray; the motion was made and seconded, and the chair recorded the outcome as unanimous. The commission asked staff to ensure the nominee is added to email chains with federal agencies and BOEM contacts, as Holly said she has done for past representatives.

The appointment does not itself create an official policy position on any project; it simply designates who will represent the HDC in Section 106 consulting-party processes. The HDC said it would return to the commission for direction if a project raised policy issues that required a formal HDC position.","The Nantucket Historic District Commission voted unanimously to appoint Anne White Gray as its Section 106 consulting-party representative for federal projects affecting historic properties; staff said the role will cover wind farm reviews and other federal-funded projects.","actionData","errors"]
