ARB approves 12‑ft patio cover at 2309 Parkridge with ledger height and flashing checks
The Architectural Review Board approved an attached patio cover at 2309 Parkridge on June 18, while emphasizing construction details the applicant must verify with building staff before a permit is issued.

Nick Desmueck, owner of 2309 Parkridge, described a 12‑foot‑wide attached patio cover; his contractor, Dan Desmueck, answered questions about existing conditions and ledger placement. Board members expressed concern that the ledger board and roof slope could leave insufficient headroom under the new cover and recommended raising the ledger board or confirming the vertical clearance to the existing window sills.

Board members also discussed construction details: the ledger board was described as a 2x6 bolted to the house; the patio is a raised block about 16 inches above grade; the applicant plans treated lumber with OSB sheathing and roll roofing. The board advised extra flashing at the window sill and reminded the applicant that building code requires appropriate underlayment (double underlayment was cited as common practice for low‑slope roofs).

Gutters and downspouts will match the existing dark brown gutters on the house. The board recorded that permit review and inspection are handled by the building department; staff told the applicant how to submit for permit and schedule inspections.

Action: A motion to approve "as noted" carried; board members recorded the approval and advised the applicant to verify vertical heights and flashing details with the building department prior to permit issuance. No public opposition spoke at the meeting.

Next steps: Applicant to confirm ledger elevation relative to window sills and provide those details at permitting. Staff reiterated that permit applications and supporting documents must be uploaded in advance for review and that inspections are scheduled after a permit is issued.
