Committee approves two downtown façade updates, records one abstention
Summary
At a committee meeting, members approved exterior updates for two downtown properties — one paint-only application and one with new windows and roof work — and recorded an abstention on the second approval; applicants described proposed terracotta paint and black window frames.
A committee meeting approved exterior updates for two downtown storefronts and recorded an abstention on the second vote.
The committee opened the meeting by introducing applicants for façade work. Eric Eckdel’s proposal, described by the chair as a front-of-building paint update with designer-specified terracotta tones, drew no objections and was approved after a motion to approve and a second.
The committee then considered an application from Andrew Krenig to replace front windows with black-framed full-glass doors and windows, trim them in black, remove window air-conditioners and have a professional address the flat roof. Krenig said the windows would match his other building, noting, “The windows are gonna be black just like how my building is down here, so everything matches, same brand, same everything.” A committee member moved to approve the application and another seconded; when asked, one member voiced an aye and another recorded an abstention.
Members asked for follow-up detail on one applicant’s plan to restore wood above a set of doors at a later date and suggested photos could be helpful to document future work.
The committee did not record a formal roll-call tally of individual aye/no votes for the first approval in the transcript; the second approval was recorded with at least one aye and one abstention. No written conditions or deadlines were included in the discussion documented in the transcript.
The meeting moved on to other business after the approvals. The committee adjourned later in the session.
