Commission approves several architectural reviews and a historic‑district sign permit
Summary
The commission approved architectural reviews for a new residence at 650 Chief Kelly Drive, a rear‑deck rebuild at 310 Bridal Street, and an after‑the‑fact historic‑district sign permit for Deer Creek Bar & Grill (101 Broad Street); decisions included conditions and CEQA exemptions.
The Nevada City Planning Commission took a series of votes on largely uncontested items: it approved an architectural review for a new residence at 650 Chief Kelly Drive after staff clarified site performance overlay mapping and window changes; approved an architectural review and demolition/rebuild of a hazardous rear deck at 310 Bridal Street (a contributing historic building) with drainage and engineering conditions; and approved an after‑the‑fact historic‑district sign permit for the Deer Creek Bar & Grill at 101 Broad Street, contingent on reducing one sign to the city’s 24‑sq‑ft maximum and clarifying that the sign substrate be wood or MDO with painted or printed lettering.
Each item was found exempt from CEQA by staff and approved by roll call. Commissioners emphasized conditions of approval and asked staff to confirm sign materials and standardize any deviations from previous approvals.
