Owners Ed and Diane presented a proposal to remove and replace siding on the front and north elevations (in kind: painted cedar clapboard and cedar shakes), replace windows with Andersen 400-series full-divided-light units, and create a new side egress door from the kitchen. The applicants said the work will include foundation work, replacement of the existing oil tank enclosure with improved access, and replication of existing decorative brackets and trim at a small roof over the proposed new door.

Commission members praised the in-kind use of cedar clapboard and shakes but raised concerns about how far the new wall projects out from the porch. The commission asked that the projected wall on the downhill (north) side be set back approximately 6 inches to 1 foot so that the historic porch form and trim remain visually continuous. Commissioners also asked for clearer details to be submitted showing window casing, head trim, corner boards, and the small pediment/roof over the new door. The applicant agreed to revise the drawings to show the addition recessed behind the porch trim and to match all trim to the existing profiles.

The commission approved the application with the conditions described above and directed the applicants to return with the revised drawings and detailed trim/roof/pediment information at the next meeting. The commission also noted interest in preserving an older storm/entry door element in the design if feasible and discussed roof material options for later review (applicants mentioned architectural asphalt shingles; commissioners said they would consider alternative metal roofing if formally submitted). The proposed larger dormer work and roof material questions were discussed informally but not approved at this meeting; the commission asked the applicants to submit those elements separately for review.","The commission approved exterior work at 351 High Street (Sheffield House) — siding replacement, new windows and a side egress door — with a condition that the proposed wall on the downhill side be set back roughly 6 inches to 1 foot and that all trim match existing historic profiles.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6482862,"Historic district commission tables Bayer exterior-design application after materials missing",644,51525,696410,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5671246-4b78fde73c5d6b90e1d21522d472ee30&start=51&end=696","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5671246-4b78fde73c5d6b90e1d21522d472ee30/thumbnail_51525.jpg","/articles/6482862/New-Shoreham/Washington-County/Rhode-Island/Historic-district-commission-tables-Bayer-exterior-design-application-after-materials-missing","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6482862-ddce6a98979f9ddf4b61ee951f6f610f/orig.mp4?Expires=1770989864&Signature=F1UVSFzV2FHBsWkMO6Szw4iZsui9kC~fRItaBPVGaEucfG~bUFBw5EcBav-QESM5LZIvjKjbA7yPO8h-BITRvAaTw~~5U4TWx4FfkbloX5eoXvv9kBRyDpmuPcnX12gWNw41VvAXlM46DnqPIyjv9M7v1NU~OCY7ut-9JWZeW9-E2SXlTFl8PhjuEDP-lL-rpeqc6sfcM5lAClEdg9jUolAtjFxHZdiPAeuuDBadNWVUUQwhmFOLfg9Tu9ltIN9xUeQSR~PdV1dlmWLBJTi0nbTAz26hPcH1adglv5IoAXk3J6U9N6qx6gvKdgE4NDBnujBgynJWweCliCNVh93Lyg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The New Shoreham Historic District Commission on an online meeting tabled an exterior-design application submitted for review as \"Bayer\" after commissioners said the packet lacked required details and no project representative was present to answer questions.

Commissioners said the submission listed only a handful of materials (noting Andersen 400-series windows described as “full divided light,” a generic PVC door trim and an Owens Corning roof color) but did not include essential measurements or clear siding specifications. A person speaking for the applicant said they were asked to attend but were not the on-site contractor and could not provide answers about trim sizes, siding type or other detailing.

Commissioners asked the applicant to provide a complete materials list and drawings showing trim sizes, corner boards, window casing details and the proposed treatment at the roof intersection and access to grade. Because those clarifications were not available, a commissioner moved to table the item and the commission voted to table the application pending submission of the requested details.

The commission recorded that public comment at this agenda item was limited to exterior design only and that the tabled status means the applicant must return with the requested documentation for the commission to resume review.","The New Shoreham Historic District Commission tabled an exterior-design application submitted by Bayer after the applicant failed to provide required materials and no representative on site could answer technical questions.","actionData","errors"]
