ARB approves waivers and grants minor-project approval for new home at Short Street (case 25-025)
Summary
The Architectural Review Board approved three waivers and granted minor-project approval for a new home at PID 2371358 (case 25-025) with one staff condition requiring final material confirmations prior to permit.
The Dublin Architectural Review Board approved three waivers and granted minor-project approval for a new home at PID 2371358 in the Historic Residential District (case 25-025). The approvals were unanimous among members present.
Staff member Sarah presented the project, noting it sits above the Scioto River and that changes since an informal review included thicker front columns, added garage hardware, shutters on the lower level and a simplified facade using straight-edged shake panels. Sarah said three waivers were requested: 40-foot rear height, 3:12 roof pitches on select roofs, and use of Trex decking. Staff recommended approval of all three waivers and supported the minor-project review with one condition requiring final material identification prior to building permit.
Applicant Taylor Summer confirmed the changes and said she deferred to staff’s summary, adding, “Sarah did a great job. Anything I say will be repeating her.” Board members discussed the appearance of the shake siding and preferred a straight-edge versus staggered edge to avoid excessive visual busyness. Members also requested final screening and railing details for the decks.
The board approved the rear height waiver (unanimous), the 3:12 roof pitch waiver (unanimous) and the Trex decking material waiver (unanimous). The board then approved the minor-project review with the staff-stated condition that final materials be provided before permit issuance; the vote was unanimous among members present.
Votes at a glance: rear height waiver — approved; 3:12 roof pitches waiver — approved; Trex decking waiver — approved; minor-project review with one condition — approved. The applicant will provide material samples and the specific shutter, shake and screening details during permitting.
