Recommendation
No objection to issuance of permit for proposed replacement wood fences, for fountain at courtyard and for green roof on garage as shown in drawings dated 22 May 2014 which indicate fences and gates will be stained Grey Cedar. Approval is conditional on the painting of the brick walls on the historic house, and on the new garage, and the garden walls, a consistent uniform color. Existing patch work of coloration on the walls is not appropriate to the character of the historic building or its context. Recommend stain for wood fences and gates be an opaque stain. Note: The Capitol Trust holds an easement on this property. Note: Any subsequent modifications to the approved design, including those made during DCRA technical review, must be re–submitted to the Commission for approval prior to issuance of permit.
