Summary

The board approved COA 2025-07132 to replace all 18 windows on a Greek Revival building (now 'Poke Mobile') with 6-over-6 vinyl windows to match existing openings; staff recommended approval and members discussed matching patterns and the boarded opening.

James, a city staff member, presented the certificate‑of‑appropriateness application (COA 2025-07132) for a Greek Revival three‑story building on West Washington Street, saying the building contributes to the historic district and the proposal is to replace all windows and re-open a boarded opening. "They're gonna replace all 18 windows," James said, and staff recommended approval because replacements would be in‑kind and match the existing 6‑over‑6 pattern.

Board members discussed whether the front elevation's lower window matched the 6‑over‑6 pattern and whether the boarded opening should be restored to a functioning window; staff confirmed the replacements would be consistent across the facade. The public hearing was opened and closed by voice vote and the COA was approved by voice vote with no roll‑call tally included in the transcript.
