Board approves small addition at 408 Camino Del Monte Sol
Summary
The HDRB approved a 125‑square‑foot addition to 408 Camino Del Monte Sol (the Frank House), finding the proposal compatible with Spanish Pueblo Revival design standards and located on a non‑primary facade.
The Historic Districts Review Board voted to approve a modest 125‑square‑foot addition to the Frank House at 408 Camino Del Monte Sol, finding the work compatible with downtown/East Side design standards.
Staff presenter Lenny described the house as a 1924 Spanish Pueblo Revival contributing property with primary facades on the north and east. The applicant proposed removing a 75‑square‑foot lean‑to shed on a non‑primary facade and replacing it with a 125‑square‑foot addition to match the residence’s materials and scale. "Staff recommends approval of the proposed project and finds that the application complies with section 14‑4.6," Lenny said.
Applicant Trevor Purvis said the work is "simple" and no neighbors objected; online commenter Stephanie Benonato supported replacing the shed but expressed a visual preference about window treatments. Board members asked clarifying questions and then approved the application by roll call.
