Summary

A downtown property owner won committee approval to remove an old tin covering, restore cornice details and repaint window trim at 1017 16th Avenue; committee members said brick and ground-level masonry will remain unchanged and signage was not part of this application.

The committee approved a certificate of appropriateness allowing property owner Dan Gelbach to remove an existing tin covering on the cornice, expose the underlying brickwork and repaint the cornice and window trim at 1017 16th Avenue.

Gelbach described the work as focused on trim and cornice restoration and emphasized, "I'm not painting the brick, you know, green like it shows in the picture." Committee members asked clarifying questions about shutters and the ground-level brick, and Gelbach said the lower brick/masonry and visible roof shingles will be left as-is; temporary signage on the storefront is not part of his application and the business intends to file a separate sign submission when ready.

The motion to approve the application "as proposed" was made and seconded during the meeting and the chair called for vocal approval; the transcript records ayes called by the chair but does not provide a numerical roll-call tally. Committee members encouraged Gelbach to coordinate with staff if any signage is proposed later.
