SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Historic Preservation Commission on Jan. 15 took a series of administrative and project votes, including the election of officers and approvals for multiple certificates of appropriateness and conceptual applications.

Key outcomes

- Officers: The commission re-elected Gibbs as president and elected Jeffrey Fetzer as vice president. (Voice vote; roll call not recorded.)

- Case 2 (2419 Macaulay): The commission approved the applicant’s certificate of appropriateness with staff stipulations after the architect described revisions made in response to prior site visits and staff comments.

- Case 3 (applicant Michael Elder): The commission approved the application with staff stipulations; the applicant said the project team coordinated with the San Antonio River Authority and submitted the requested study materials and window/landscape details.

- Case 4 (1602 Broadway): The commission granted conceptual approval but added a requirement that the applicant present building relocation plans and siting to a design review committee before final return, and asked for additional landscaping and shade consideration along Broadway.

- Case 10 (rooftop mechanical equipment, downtown building): After an extended discussion and visual simulations, the commission approved the application with staff stipulations to reduce visibility of rooftop mechanical equipment; recorded roll call: Castillo (yes), Seviño (no), Velázquez (yes), Bezuca (yes), Krube (yes), Cervantes (yes), Holland (yes), Fetzer (no), Gibbs (yes).

- Case 12 (319 Stirris): The commission approved conceptual plans for an addition, recommended window proportion details and denied the covered carport as proposed; staff and the applicant discussed possible pergola or alternative solutions and the applicant agreed to work with staff and the design committee on final details.

- Case 13 (237 W. Trave Street sign): The commission approved a small monument sign within a courtyard with conditions requiring durable materials, simplified finishes and a rear panel to conceal conduit; the motion included a requirement that lighting conform to the commission’s guidelines.

Motions that passed listed above were voted either by recorded roll call (where noted) or by voice; in several smaller or consent items the recorded roll call in the transcript lists commissioners who voted yes but does not always show a complete tally with absences noted.
