HDC notes emergency roof repairs at Old Town Motors, discusses November meeting date and possible guideline amendments
Summary
Town staff authorized contractors to start emergency roof work at Old Town Motors to address a leak and reported a follow-up application to replace shingles and the building's flat rubber roof is tentatively scheduled for the November hearing.
Town staff told the commission Old Town Motors had a roof leak and that staff had authorized contractors to begin work to stop the leak. The applicant has submitted an application to replace the shingles and the flat rubber roof on the building’s flat section; staff said that application is tentatively scheduled for the November hearing. Staff asked commissioners to expect work in the near term to address the leak and to defer formal design review to the regular hearing schedule.
Staff also raised the November meeting schedule: the currently scheduled date falls the day before Thanksgiving and staff offered alternate dates (for example, Nov. 17 or 18) and said an email with proposed dates would be circulated so commissioners could indicate availability.
Finally, staff said the commission has previously discussed topics such as public art and color and that staff is reviewing language other jurisdictions use; staff hopes to bring draft language early next year for commission feedback and noted that any formal guideline amendment would require town-council action.
No formal recorded vote on guideline amendments or schedule changes was recorded; staff will circulate proposed November dates and continue drafting possible guideline language.
