The Brentwood Architecture Review Board voted May 15 to approve revised exterior and site plans for a two‑story replacement home at 8705 Rosalie, allowing the applicant to advance the proposal to the city’s permitting review.

The board approved the plans after the applicant said the house on the 50‑foot lot has already been demolished and the revised submission relocates the detached rear‑entry garage to address driveway‑width limits. The applicant also proposed a substitute roofing shingle after the originally specified GAF color was discontinued.

William Rombach, of Rombach Holmes, told the board the existing house had been torn down and described the new house as two stories with a detached rear‑entry garage. “The new color is midnight plum, and it's an Owens Corning product,” Rombach said when explaining the replacement for the discontinued GAF Brandywine Dusk shingle. He also described a relevant site change: sliding the garage toward the left side of the lot and extending the driveway back to where the garage will sit so vehicles can turn more easily on the property rather than reversing to Rosalie.

Board members asked procedural and design questions. Paul Turner asked about lot width and finished‑floor elevations; the applicant confirmed the lot is 50 feet wide and that the design complies with setback and height requirements. The board discussed driveway width rules and how the revised garage location addresses the city restriction that generally limits driveway width to the garage width plus one foot. The board also confirmed the proposed detached garage siding, trim and roofing will match the primary house materials, and that the front door will be a Therma Tru composite door in a walnut color as a color note rather than a structural material requirement.

After questions, the board moved and voted to approve the submittal “as noted.” Paul Turner moved to approve and Carl Carlin seconded; Turner and Carlin both voted in favor. The board recorded the outcome as approved to move to the next administrative step; final permitting and any plan checks will be handled by the city building official.

The applicant will submit the revised site and construction documents to the city building department for formal plan review. Any materials substitutions or final product selections will be reviewed during that permitting process.
