Board approves Potomac certificate of appropriateness with stipulations
Summary
After a commissioner pulled the Potomac consent item for questions about enforcement and condition, the board approved staff recommendations and granted a certificate of appropriateness with stipulated conditions.
A Potomac case (case number referenced on the agenda) that had been placed on the consent agenda was pulled for discussion and, after staff explanation and commissioner questions, was approved with staff stipulations.
A voicemail from Lulu Francois, chairwoman of the Dignity Hill Historic Neighborhood Review Committee, asked the board to accept staff recommendations and suggested changing a rear-elevation window to a 1-over-1. Staff explained the application is a violation case with drawings submitted to comply and that the existing rear window would not be forced to change because it is already existing. Commissioners sought clarification about enforcement and timeline; staff said the case could move into a compliance agreement as needed.
Following questions and assurances from staff that compliance processes are available, a motion to approve with staff stipulations was made, seconded and carried on roll-call vote.
