The Historic District Commission heard an application for a 48‑kilowatt propane standby generator to be installed at 1050 Old Academy Road and later approved the work as submitted.

Applicant representative Robert Bureau described the proposed installation: a pad-mounted, liquid-cooled 48 kW propane generator set at the front-left side of the house near the electrical meter, with two exterior transfer switches and concealed conduit. Bureau said the unit would be set with a crane from Old Academy Road, the base would be reinforced and the unit would have a weekly self-test (exercise) that is programmable. He added the unit would have a ten-foot clearance plan and that most electrical work would be concealed.

Commissioners asked no substantive questions about design or visibility; the applicant indicated there were no public comments and no letters for or against the proposal. At the meeting’s consideration stage a motion to approve the submission carried by voice vote; the transcript records the motion passed but does not record individual roll-call votes.
