Certificate of Appropriateness Applications: Applicant/ Owner: Carolina Mendosa Location: 6267 SW 57 Street Request: Installation of Driveway Pavers Action: Mr. Perez advised that the applicant is requesting approval far the installation of a new semi-circular driveway consisting of brick pavers covering 625 square feet. The addition of the pavers will not exceed the permitted impervious surface of 2400 square feet for this property. The driveway design, location, and style of brick pavers are similar to several others .in the district. The placement of the driveway may eliminate a number of trees in the front yard and will require a tree removal permit. The subject property is within the Cambridge Lawns Historic District. Pursuant to Section 20- 1.19(E) of the Land Development Code, a "Certificate of Appropriateness", is required for applications affecting the exterior (renovation, repair, painting demolition or landscaping). Mr. Perez advised that staff was concerned with the placement of the driveway because it may eliminate some trees. The applicant will require a tree removal permit. Staff recommended approval of the Certificate of Appropriateness with the condition that the applicant shall abide by HPB Minutes Excerpt October 29, 2007 Page 2 of 2 all the conditions set forth in the staff report. Ms. Clyatt indicated she visited the location and noticed the applicant has done nice work with the property and found the work to be an asset to Cambridge Lawn District. Mr. Perez stated that staff too feels that it will be a great asset, however, staff was concerned with the landscape as well as correcting any possible impacts which may occur to the swale area. Mr. Perez translated for Mr. Humberto Olivera, the contractor, who was in attendance representing the applicant. Mr. Hochstim commented on the setback requirements. He also questioned whether or not the City required the applicant to provide a landscaping mitigation on the plans. Mr. Olivera advised that the side setback originally was written on the proposed plans however it was brought to his attention by staff that the setback was incorrect. He corrected the mistake by handwriting in the five foot setback between the driveway and the neighbor's property line. In response to Mr. Hochstim concern regarding landscaping, Mr. Youkilis advised that it comes later when the tree removal permit is applied for. Mr. Hochstim suggested that in the future the Board should require a landscape survey indicating the current trees. Mr. Youkilis advised that it could be done. Mr. Hochstim also recommended that the walkway should be removed and replaced with additional landscape. The applicant responded that the owner will consider the Board's requests. Motion: Mr. Hochstim moved to add a condition to the Certificate of Appropriateness approval; that the walkway be removed and replaced with trees. Mr. Ruiz de Castilla seconded. Vote: 6 Ayes 0 Nays Motion: Mr. Hochstim moved the approval of the Certificate of Appropriateness with the following staff conditions. Ms. Shelley seconded. 1.
