Summary

The Newport Historic District Commission approved an application to convert the existing garage at 10 Maitland Court into an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), allowing a rear addition and window/door work with conditions to match existing fenestration.

The commission approved the application to convert the garage at 10 Maitland Court into an ADU, including a small rear addition and infill of the existing garage door. Applicant Brian Shull testified that the plan is to "match the existing" windows and that the garage trim will be re-sided to match the house.

Chair called for questions and commissioners focused on fenestration and exterior trim. Commissioner Balla asked which window brand would be used; Shull replied the building was built in 2020 and they would match the windows on site. The motion to approve the application, citing Newport standards for non-contributing properties, carried after a second and a voice vote.
