The Historic Preservation Commission approved an application to replace the fabric and signage on an existing awning at 2224 Croin Avenue. The applicant, Paula of Roa Sprinting and Signs, told the commission the work would be limited to taking down the existing fabric, refacing it at the contractor's shop, and reinstalling a black canvas awning with the new business name.
Paula said the project is a refacing only and does not include new lighting or other exterior changes. "All I'm doing is pretty much refacing...bringing the old sumbrella off, adding the new one, and just doing the name on it," she said.
Commission members asked about materials and color; the applicant described the fabric as an umbrella-style (sumbrella) material and confirmed the existing brown awning would be replaced with black canvas. After brief discussion a commissioner moved to approve the application; another member seconded the motion and the chair called for a voice vote. The motion passed; no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript.
The awning sits at the edge of the commission's district near the municipal building, which commissioners noted when considering visual context. The commission did not record any conditions on the approval in the meeting transcript. The applicant thanked the panel and left the virtual meeting after the vote.
