Historic district subcommittee approves Caitlin Peeler’s porch balustrade and foundation paint
Summary
The historic district subcommittee approved a COA for 409 West Fifth Avenue to add a wood balustrade and paint the foundation after reviewing staff photos and the applicant’s proposed design; the work was approved at subcommittee level with conditions related to drought restrictions.
At a subcommittee meeting following the full commission, commissioners approved a certificate of appropriateness for 409 West Fifth Ave (file PLCA202600167), a contributing circa‑1922 bungalow owned by Caitlin Peeler.
Staff presented before‑and‑after photos and the applicant showed proposed drawings for a wood balustrade and a foundation paint color (“library pewter”). Commissioners noted evidence of previous balustrades on the columns and agreed the proposed work was consistent with the house’s historic character. The subcommittee approved the items and noted that exterior work should wait until local drought restrictions allow pressure washing and painting.
