Summary

Applicant James Coleman said the proposed side‑wall vent can be mounted as low as 24 inches above ground, will protrude 12–14 inches, be painted white, and screened by hydrangeas; the commission approved the application 7-0-0.

Applicant James Coleman presented a Design Review Committee application for a side‑wall vent at 3259 Route 30, telling the commission the vent "can be as low as 24” above the ground," will "protrude 12 – 14” from the face of the wall," will be painted white to match the house, and that hydrangeas will screen the installation in winter.

Vice Chair Scott Thompson moved to approve the application with the vent mounted as low as possible; Commissioner Natalie Quigley seconded the motion. The commission approved the application by a unanimous 7-0-0 vote. The approval includes the condition that the vent be mounted as low as practical to minimize visual impact.
