Commissioners on Nov. 6 deferred a decision on a proposed two‑story single‑family house at 1807 Crockett in the High 1st Ward Historic District to permit additional work between the applicant and staff.

Terrence Jackson, planning staff, described the proposal as a 3,313 square‑foot two‑story home with a front‑facing garage and modern fixed windows; staff recommended denial because the design was not compatible with contributing homes in the district. Chad Creech, appearing for the applicant, said the proposal was intended to match an adjacent older property and added that the applicant had revised materials after staff feedback.

After staff indicated applicant willingness to work on adjustments and the applicant requested the opportunity to revise if the commission was considering denial, Commissioner Crossgrove moved to defer the item so staff and the applicant could refine the design. The motion carried.

Ending: The deferral gives the applicant time to return with revisions that better match the High 1st Ward district’s exterior features and compatibility criteria.
