Historic commission grants 2‑year extension to previously approved ADU at 309 S. Davidson
Summary
The commission approved a two‑year extension for COA 2392, allowing the petitioner to finish a rear addition and accessory unit at 309 South Davidson in the Greater Prospect Hill Historic District; staff said project still complies with district guidelines.
The Bloomington Historic Preservation Commission voted Jan. 22 to grant a two‑year extension to COA 2392 for work at 309 South Davidson Street.
Noah, the commission’s program manager, told commissioners the original COA — approved in December 2023 — required work to begin within two years after issuance. The applicant said the building permit had been issued but the accessory unit permit was delayed; the petitioner asked to renew the COA so the approved rear addition and two‑car garage accessory structure can be completed.
Staff recommended approval, noting the proposed accessory structure complies with the historic‑district guidelines and that the guidelines have not changed while the project was on hold. Commissioners had no objections and voted to extend the certificate for two more years (roll‑call vote recorded in favor). The commission advised the applicant to coordinate with staff and the neighborhood review committee as needed when resuming work.
The extension applies only to COA 2392 for the accessory structure; the commission emphasized that the approval does not waive requirements in other permitting processes and advised the petitioner to secure any additional city permits required before construction resumes.
