Commission approves driveway resurfacing with chip-and-seal blend at 803 Fair Street
Summary
The commission approved replacement of driveway material at 803 Fair Street in the Hincheyville historic district with a chip-and-seal blend and concrete border; the path and footprint will not change.
The Franklin Historic Zoning Commission approved replacement of the existing driveway material at 803 Fair Street on May 12 with a chip-and-seal blend and a concrete border, finding the material consistent with guideline recommendations and district precedent.
Emily, a city staff member, reported the property is a 1931 Tudor-influenced house in the Hincheyville National Register Historic District; the proposal replaces the existing asphalt driveway with the same path and footprint. Staff recommended approval with conditions noting the materials are consistent with district guidance. The applicant told the commission the existing driveway was showing its age and that they planned to use the same contractor and pattern previously approved on nearby streets. A motion to approve with staff conditions passed by voice vote.
