Architect Joe Davidson presented the proposed addition at 685 Edgar Road, explaining that the design departed from the existing house but had been studied to produce a more attractive composition. The board asked whether the dormer pitch could be altered so the ridge would align with existing rooflines and whether the rear porch roof should extend to cover an additional door. Davidson said the team had tried aligning ridges and eaves and that the current composition best met interior and exterior goals.
Board members discussed potential flashing concerns and whether adding shutters would be appropriate. The applicant said the owner had considered shutters but that the architect felt shutters would make the elevation busy; the board agreed it was acceptable as shown. The board voted to approve the project as submitted. No external statutes or approvals were cited; the board's comments focused on composition and constructability, and no additional permit conditions were imposed beyond standard plan review.
