Description: Detail review of the new construction of a 2,204 SF two-story, single-family residential building on a vacant lot.

Previous ARC Recommendations:

05/06/25: The Commission voted to grant conceptual approval of the massing with the details to be worked out at ARC level.

04/21/26: The ARC recommended conceptual approval of the main proposed massing, not the options, with the details to be worked out at the ARC level. For the next meeting, the ARC requested more details of the materials, garage door, and windows. The ARC stated that the window-to-wall ratio on the façade needs further study and recommended two evenly spaced windows with matching sill heights. The downspout on the front right side should be rerouted so it does not intersect the wood paneling.

03/24/26: The ARC voted to defer this application for additional review. The ARC requested massing studies and sections for the next meeting to further understand the development process and massing of the proposed. The ARC stated that the overall massing, roof slope, and lack of fenestrations needed further study. The option with the setback entrance canopy was preferred by the ARC. The entrance gate should have some transparency to further identify it as the main entrance.
