Historic Preservation Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />17 August 2020 <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />Haley asked if the lot would be subdivided. Selvoski responded that the lot would not be <br />subdivided but it eligible for a second dwelling unit. Dunlap asked if the lot was large enough to <br />be subdivided and Selvoski stated that it was not. <br />Klemme asked about the design of the porch and if the design was historic. Selvoski responded <br />that the porch was rebuilt but the design is historic. <br />Andy Johnson, DAJ Design, spoke as the applicant. He noted the original character that the <br />house has retained over time. He clarified that the porch that exists today retains the original <br />roof structure; at some point in the past the front porch was enclosed but was later returned to <br />the form that exists today. He also clarified that no alterations were being proposed to the <br />historic structure at 633 La Farge. The property may undergo alterations with the proposed <br />relocation of 1201 Lincoln but the landmarked structure itself will not be altered. <br />Public Comments: <br />None <br />Discussion: <br />Dunlap clarified that if we landmark the structure as opposed to the property, the HPC would not <br />be able to weigh in on future changes to the property. Staff confirmed that. Chair Haley stated <br />that going through the alteration certificate procedure in this case showed that the HPC <br />reviewed the proposed change against the alteration certificate requirements. <br />Klemme commented that she was excited to see the property begin the historic preservation <br />process and that the structure seems to meet all the criteria for age, significance, and integrity. <br />Haley agreed, and noted that it's exciting to possibly so many homes in the same area <br />participating in the preservation program. Dunlap noted that the houses along Pine were all built <br />by the same carpenter. Parris agreed that this was an excellent candidate for probable cause. <br />Klemme made a motion to recommend approval of the Landmarking and the $5,000 Landmark <br />Incentive grant. Dunlap seconded. Passed unanimously by voice vote. <br />Keller clarified that this property was eligible for a second dwelling unit. Selvoski responded that <br />this was allowed in the RM zone district in Old Town with lots of a certain size. <br />Haley commented that the size and scale of the structure to be relocated to the property is <br />sensitive and appropriate. <br />Dunlap agreed, and appreciated being able to review this proposed change. <br />Dunlap made a motion to approve the Alteration Certificate for 633 La Farge. Parris seconded. <br />Passed unanimously by voice vote. <br />1201 Lincoln Avenue: Landmark, Alteration Certificate, Grant <br />Staff presented the following the research and information on 1201 Lincoln Avenue: <br />The house at 1201 Lincoln Avenue was built in 1908 and shows elements of the Craftsman - <br />inspired style common in early 20th century Louisville.
