Votes at a glance: Metro Historic Zoning Commission, June 18, 2025
The Metro Historic Zoning Commission recorded these formal actions at its June 18 meeting. Items are listed by location/project and include the commission’s direction when specified.

201 Manchester Avenue (violation): Approved skylights; disapproved revised rear roof form and added dormers per staff recommendation. Commission extended compliance to 180 days to allow the homeowner to work with staff on compliant revisions.

931 South Douglas Avenue (violation): Approved rear chimney as constructed (not visible from the street); disapproved lap siding on the side chimney and ordered the side chimney to be clad in brick, stone or stucco within 60 days or to return for final review of alternative material.

305 South Tenth Street (infill): Approved six-unit infill conditioned on removal of proposed rooftop patios; applicant must submit revised drawings without rooftop patios for final staff review.

3518 Richland Avenue (side porch/addition): Approved proposed additions with the covered portion limited to a maximum of 6 feet 6 inches wider than the historic house roofline; final materials and drawings subject to staff review.

3605 Central Avenue (addition and outbuilding): Approved with staff conditions. Staff had noted the addition extended wider than the historic house (interior lot limitation in the Richland West End chapter) but the commission voted to approve subject to standard conditions.

2009 Sevier Street / 1515 Davidson Avenue (U.S. Naval Reserve Training Center, Shelby Park): Approved the adaptive-reuse proposal and associated alterations including replacement of metal cladding and some window-to-door openings; staff to review final materials and select manufacturers (Butler Manufacturing metal cladding and replacement windows to replicate four horizontal elements).

1425 Franklin Avenue (infill, Eastwood): Approved infill design and standard conditions; staff had issued an administrative permit for demolition of the noncontributing house.

Consent agenda: The commission approved the consent agenda, which included 31 administrative permits issued in the prior month and multiple applications for additions/outbuildings and one violation case listed for approval as presented (items listed by address included 1141 Shelton Avenue; 1402 17th Avenue South; 926 Halcyon Avenue; 1108 Paris Avenue; 1517 Elmwood; 1210 Fifth Avenue North; 1013 Paris Avenue; 900 Bradford Avenue).

Officer elections: Commission elected Cyril Stewart as chair and Beth Cashion (listed in the meeting as Commissioner Cashin/Cashion in different places) as vice chair effective July 1; the vote was carried by the commissioners present.

How to read these results: The commission’s recorded motions frequently followed staff recommendations; where the commission modified a staff recommendation it recorded the modification (for example, the 201 Manchester compliance window change and the numeric limit for 3518 Richland). If a project requires revised drawings or materials review, the commission’s approval is conditional on those reviews being completed before a preservation permit or certificate of appropriateness can be issued.
