Summary
The commission approved COA 2600567 for a Newport Millennium Housing Corporation infill design at 429 Hodge Street, finding the brick‑veneer front and selected materials compatible with surrounding styles and setbacks; staff to record findings.
The commission granted a certificate of appropriateness for 429 Hodge Street to Newport Millennium Housing Corporation after staff presented context showing a variety of local styles and setbacks; the proposed brick veneer and porch details were judged compatible with the block.
Staff noted that the design uses a brick veneer on the front portion of the house with Hardie siding toward the rear, a front-gable roof shape commonly seen nearby, and typical porch materials. Commissioners found the two‑story design consistent with nearby heights and massing. A motion to approve COA 2600567 was moved and seconded and carried in roll call.
