Commission refers two-house Palmetto/Burnet proposal to Design Review Committee for more detailed review
Summary
Commissioners asked for more complete elevations, window details and landscaping for a two-house proposal at 114731 N Palmetto and voted to send the item to the next available Design Review Committee meeting for more detailed review.
The Historic Review Commission sent a proposed two-house project at 114731 North Palmetto (at Burnet) to the Design Review Committee (DRC) for additional review after commissioners raised open questions about massing, elevations and window specifications.
Applicants Octavio Miramontes, Alex Mortman and builder Zachs Mortman presented revised drawings and described attempts to reduce front setback and building massing to better match the context. Staff and commissioners noted multiple stipulations that remain (window depth and materials, elevations, final landscape plans and coverage calculations) and requested clearer street elevations and roof plans.
Commissioners suggested a DRC review or a focused resubmission so the applicant could present full section, elevation and landscape details. A motion to refer the item to the next available DRC (likely within two weeks) passed by roll call. Staff said the item would likely return to the Commission in about two weeks after the DRC review.
Next steps: the applicant will prepare the requested elevation and landscape materials for the DRC; staff will coordinate and set the schedule.
