Commission approves removing one front door at 315 North Eighth Street to enclose bedroom entrance
Summary
The commission approved an application to remove the far-right of three front doors at 315 North Eighth Street; staff recommended installing wood lap siding to match the existing reveal and noted the door leads into a child's bedroom.
The Opelika Historic Preservation Commission approved an application to remove one of three front doors at 315 North Eighth Street, with staff recommending the far-right door be removed and the opening clad with wood lap siding to match the existing reveal.
Staff described the house as having three doors across the front and said the door proposed for removal provides entry into a child's bedroom. "Staff recommends approval of removing the far right door and installing wood lap siding, matching the reveal of the existing siding," a staff member said. Commissioners noted that multiple-front-door configurations are common on older houses and that the doors may not be original, given later conversions into multifamily units.
The commission approved the staff recommendation by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript.
