Board approves Gothic‑style picket fence and double gate with annotated post detail

Cold Spring historic district review meeting · July 22, 2026

Summary

The board approved a Gothic‑style picket fence (4–5 feet tall) with a double driveway gate and a concealed service gate; members required the specified flat post detail and S103B cap be annotated in the permit set.

An applicant presented a Gothic‑style picket fence design and asked the board to approve a four‑ or five‑foot high picket panel with exposed posts and a double driveway gate. The applicant said the design would allow planting between the sidewalk and the fence and would include a concealed service gate for utilities.

Board members asked about post spacing and post‑cap detail; the applicant confirmed the standard flat post and S103B cap noted in catalog materials. A motion to approve the application with the specified post and cap details passed on voice vote.

The board asked staff to annotate the approval set with the post‑exposure and cap details and to ensure the permit includes the catalog cut for the picket and post cap.
