Before
I
begin,
thank
you
for
reaching
out
to
tom
last
week
after
the
pre-application
call
to
get
the
information
in
on
the
the
roofing
so
appreciate
that
very
much,
and
just
for
the
record,
I
think
you
said
17,
so
it's
15
library
for
the
record.
The
application
is
for
replacement
of
replacement
windows
and
roofing.
Based
on
the
conversation
that
we
had
a
couple
of
weeks
ago,
really
nothing
has
changed
I'll,
be
glad
to
go
through
the
presentation.
F
The
only
two
things
that
have
changed
are
the
windows
that
I
think
eric.
You
suggested
that
we
go
a
little
shorter
on
the
windows
over
the
west
side
over
what
we're
hoping
will
be
the
new
steel
roof
to
make
room
for
the
for
the
pitch.
So
we're
looking
to
replace
28
windows
that
are
probably
about
30
years
old,
sash
pack
windows.
F
Add
two
windows:
all
the
windows
that
we're
going
to
add
are
going
to
be
two
over
twos
marvin,
elevate,
kind
of
their
mid
mid-level
series,
but
two
over
two,
which
we
think
brings
the
house
back
to
the
way
it
was
when
it
was
originally
built.
And
then
the
six
windows
in
the
bay
window.
Those
are
probably
original
to
the
house
and
they
will
be
custom
built
marvin
windows
to
look
identical
to
what
is
there
now
and
I'll
be
glad
to
go
through
whatever
you'd
like
me
to
go
through.
B
F
F
Then
this
is
the
side
that
faces
downtown
the
high
street
side.
There
are
four
windows
on
that
side
and
one
door,
and
if
you
scroll
down
further,
so
you
can
see
on
the
left,
that
is
the
current
configuration
then
I
did
my
best
with
photoshop.
On
the
right
hand,
side
we
would
like
to
add
a
window
upper
left
corner
that
will
be
identical
size
to
the
other
two
on
the
second
floor
and
then
add
a
window
on
the
right
side,
which
will
be
at
the
bottom
of
the
staircase.
F
F
We
want
to
eliminate
the
window,
that's
kind
of
closest
to
you
on
that
side.
It's
a
mud
room
to
provide
some
additional
wall
space
to
put
in
some
cabinetry
and
then
take
what
is
the
kitchen
window
now,
which
is
a
double
window
and
turn
it
into
a
triple
and
then
looking
at
it
from
the
library
street
side.
The
three
windows
kind
of
closest
to
us
will
look,
you
know,
look
the
same
as
they
are
the
two
over
the
roof.
F
F
So
an
aerial
shot,
everything
that
is
just.
What
do
you
call
it?
You
know
timberline
shingle
roof
everything
that
is
currently
shingled,
so
the
main
house
and
the
porch
and
the
mud
room
will
all
be
timberline
shingles
we're
trying
to
decide
now
between
the
hd
and
the
ultra
hd,
the
ultra
hd
being
a
little
thicker
and
has
a
130
mile
an
hour
wind
capacity.
F
And
then,
where
we
would
like
to
put
the
steel
roof
is,
on
the
right
hand,
side
there.
We
need
to
pitch
that
a
little
bit,
lift
it
up
somewhere
between
eight
and
ten
inches.
We're
still
in
the
process
of
designing
that,
but
there'll
be
a
slight
pitch
and
I
think
again
you
know
not
very
good
at
photoshop,
but
I
think
the
next
picture
I
tried
to
put
a
oh
yeah.
That's
the
I'm!
Sorry,
the
next
one.
So
that's
the
condition
of
the
roof.
Currently
we're
gonna
and
then
the
right
hand
side.
F
F
It'll
look
pretty
much
the
same
yeah,
not
a
huge
view
from
the
street,
although
when
you
do
come
down
library
towards
downtown,
you
will
be
able
to
see
the
roof
and
the
color.
We
are
suggesting
we're
still
kind
of
determining
that.
But
we'll
leave
either
be.
You
know
one
of
the
two
charcoal
grays
or
black,
although
we
are
leaning
towards
one
of
the
charcoal
grays.
D
F
F
Yeah
yeah,
so
those
are
the
timberlines
we're
going
with
the
trexel
steel
roof.
I
don't
I'm
familiar
with
timberline.
I
don't
know
anything
about
steel,
roofs,
but
john
henderson
is
the
suggested
contractor
to
do
the
roofing
and
he
likes
the
material,
and
I
like
him.
So
it
seems
like
seems
like
a
good.
F
F
F
C
B
I
I
know,
can
you
hear
me
I've
done
something
to
my
computer.
I
don't
know
okay,
I'm
not
sure
what
I'm
doing
here.
So
yes,
that's!
I
was
going
to
mention
that
so
you
have
these
two
various
shingle
roofs
that
you're
deciding
between
and
then
you
have
the
charcoal
gray
and
black
shingle
roof
that
you're
deciding
between
so
we're
trying
to
work
on
a
process
that
makes
this
a
little
more
streamlined.
B
But
you
have
to
choose
your
materials
for
us
to
be
able
to
approve
them
and
the
reason
I
I
reference
this
streamlined
process
that
we're
working
on
is,
if
you
choose
to
go
with
a
black
roof
after
you
have
it
then
there's
this
process
that
tom
santorini
is
working
on.
If
you
don't,
if
so,
you
don't
have
to
come
back
before
us,
but
you
do
have
to
actually
select
the
materials
that
you're
using
for
us
to
approve.
Okay,
so.
G
B
C
B
G
G
C
H
The
application
is
for
the
construction
of
a
24
by
24
foot
garage,
slash
carriage
house
at
the
corner
at
the
property
on
high
street
at
the
corner
of
high
and
godfrey.
The
carriage
house
will
essentially,
if
you
scroll
down.
So
your
right
here
is
the
the
24x24
house
will
be
accessed
from
an
existing
driveway,
actually
both
off
of
high
street
and
godfrey
street,
and
if
you
would
scroll
down
a
little
farther
there's
and
maybe
minimize
that
a
little
bit,
it's
essentially
a
square
with
a
small
studio
office.
H
On
the
second
floor,
the
owner
wishes
to
have
a
basically
vertical
siding
board
and
batten.
Look
gener
real
wood
painted
white
with
an
asphalt
shingle
one
garage,
one
16-foot
garage
door,
a
couple
of
windows
facing
the
street,
the
arched
window
facing
godfrey
street
if
you'd
scroll
down
a
little
bit
more.
It's
looking
at
the
anderson
400
series,
black
exterior
double
hung
window
similar
to
that
picture.
There.
H
H
H
H
D
A
E
Not
with
the
project,
I
actually
think
the
design
is
awesome.
I
think
it's
great,
I
think
it's
going
to
fit
in
sarah.
Do
you
have
any
comments,
or
do
you
want
any
more
details
on
this
height
stuff
in
the
drawings,
maybe
even
as
a
con
as
it's
a
thing
to
add
later,
just
considering
the
issue
we
had
with
the
garage.
B
Right,
I
I
so
I
was
hoping
to
go
through
the
application,
a
little
bit
slower
to
kind
of
see
the
height
issue
just
because
of
other
issues
that
we
have.
We
definitely
need
photos
of
the
existing
house,
and
you
know
I
I
was
going
to
ask
peter
to
go
back
to
the
beginning
of
the
application
because
we
went
through
it
just
kind
of
fast
and
I
don't.
C
Yeah
and
I
think
to
eric's
comment,
one
of
the
reasons
why
we
would
like
to
see
the
house
I
mean.
Ideally,
I
think
we'd
like
to
see
the
house
with
the
the
proposed
edition
photoshopped
into
the
drawing
because-
and
you
know
scaled
properly,
so
we
could
sort
of
see
how
big
the
addition
or
the
carriage
house
is
in
comparison
to
the
existing
home.
C
E
It
so
david
we
had
a
problem
on
another
project
where
they
they
were
rather
vague
in
the
drawings
and
didn't
show
any
scale.
What
they
built,
a
didn't,
even
conform
with
the
drawings
would
be
didn't,
wasn't
really
reflected
properly
and
the
way
it
was
presented.
So
you
know
I
think
it
I
mean
I'm
going
to
tell
you.
I
think
it
looks
awesome.
I
just
think
it.
We
need
a
little
more
to
be
able
to
say
yay.
H
H
I'm
actually
going
online
right
now,
just
to
put
in
the
address
to
see
if
we
can
call
it
up
on
gis,
if
that's
possible,
and
then
I
can
show
you
the
picture
of
the
house.
If
that's
something,
but
I
can,
the
the
carriage
house
does
have
a
scale
to
it.
It's
about
20
feet
to
the
middle
of
the
of
the
gable
height
there,
which
is
what
what
is
allowed
by
zoning.
H
B
So
so,
just
to
speak
on
what
eric's
talking
about
david
is,
I
think
that
what
we're
suggesting
is
it
might
be
in
the
best
interest
to
come
back.
We
continue
this
and
then
you
come
back
for
another
hearing
with
some
more
detail
just
so
that
we
can
try
to
try
and
figure
out
the
lot,
the
the
scale
of
the
edition,
in
conjunction
with
the
existing
buildings
on
the
lot
just
so
that
we
can
get
a
better
picture,
and
I
agree
with
eric.
I
think
it's
a
beautiful
addition.
I
don't
have
concerns
about
that.
B
E
H
That's
to
the
mid
that's
to
the
mid
of
the
of
the
highest
roof,
so
the
lower
roof.
It's
a
little
deceiving
that
drawing
to
the
right
the
lower
right.
It
says,
20
feet
high.
If
you
follow
that
dimension
line
across
that's
to
the
middle
point
of
the
the
main
gable,
which
is
how
the
height
is
measured
in
the
town
of
groton
zoning.
E
I
just
want
to
be
very
clear.
I
don't
think
there's
any
issues
with
anything
that
you're
doing
I'm
just
saying
we
had
a
very
big
problem
relating
to
another
garage
with
some
similar
submittals
to
what
you're
submitting
it's
going
to
be
very
difficult
for
us
to
make
a
decision
based
upon
the
decision
and
what
we
did
in
that
without
more
information
from
you.
E
E
B
H
Not
do
any
good
right,
that's
yeah,
okay,
but
I'll,
we'll
submit
it
we'll
submit
new
drawings
with
some
pictures
of
the
house.
The
streetscape
I'm
not
very
good
at
photoshop
either.
So
it
might
actually
be
a
a
rough
drawing
of
the
volume
of
the
house
with
the
volume
of
the
carriage
house
from
both
high
street
and
guy
free
street.
E
A
B
D
So
just
hit
my
video
since
I've
gotten
back
on
the
board.
It
was
after
they've
changed
the
zoning
rigs
and
I
just
was
at
the
oh,
because
this
very
similar
garage
came
up
when
I
was
on
before
on
grove
street,
and
they
had
said
that
was
going
to
be
an
office
or
something,
and
now
it's
an
airbnb.
It
doesn't
matter
that
doesn't
matter
to
our
commission
correct.
C
C
C
C
G
B
The
application
is
continued,
so
I
will
now
close
public
hearings
and
call
htc
21-04
45
pearl
street,
william
getz
owner
applicant,
replace
windows.
These
were
those
four
windows
where
we
were
missing.
The
additional
information
we'd
already
heard
him
two
weeks
ago.
Does
anyone
have
any
comments
or
concerns
or
emotions
over
this
application?.
B
B
E
D
G
I
I
My
question
would
be
what
is
his
envisioned
use
for
the
second
floor
and
is
a
cupola
actually
necessary
on
the
building
and
minimizing
the
height?
Is
I
guess
my
concern?
That's
that's
my
comment.
I'd
like
to
see,
perhaps
if
it's
20
feet
high,
maybe
we
can
float
a
balloon
and
see
what
effect
it
has
on
our
view.
Other
than
that
I
know
he
wants
to
store
his
antique
cars
in
there
and
I
have
no
opposition
to
that,
but
I
think
this
is
going
to
significantly
affect
our
view
down
towards
high
street
in
the
park.
B
C
B
B
E
B
C
B
F
I
I
don't
have
anything
official,
but
I
do
have
a
general
question
as
we're
thinking
about
siding
and
what
is
you
know?
What
are
the
rules?
What
are
we
allowed?
What
should
we
be
thinking
about
not
sure
whether
we're
going
to
do
consider
a
wholesale
replacement,
but
certainly
they're,
like
on
the
group?
One
side
we
will.
We
are
eliminating
a
window
so
we'll
need
to
replace
you
know
siding
there,
which
could
be
the
clabber.
That's
there.
F
E
Because
I've
done
this
with
a
bunch,
you
can't
get
boral
siding
anymore.
They
stop
producing
it.
Unless
you
buy
it
from
a
third-party
manufacturer
they're
going
to
charge
you
almost
900
a
square
for
it,
it's
not
worth
it.
Yeah
forget
it.
If
you
can
even
get
it
yeah
the
hardy
will
never
match
up
to
the
cedar
or
whatever
is
actually
there.
So
you're
gonna
have
a
tough
time
trying
to
use
the
hardy
unless
you're.
Okay
with
that
look,
but
it's
going
to
look
pretty
butchered
your
really
only.
I
E
I
E
B
G
E
B
Certainly
so
there
was
a
project
over
on
fort
rachel
place
and
todd,
and
eric,
please
jump
in
over
me
at
any
moment,
because
my
memory
can
sometimes
be
sketchy,
but
we
had
an
applicant
do
a
garage
and
it
was
a
two.
It
was
a
one
and
a
half
story
garage,
and
it
was
this
kind
of
debacle
between
the
architect,
the
contractor
and
the
homeowner.
And
ultimately,
what
was
built
was
not
what
was
approved,
but
also
what
was
approved
in
the
application
was
somewhat
misleading.
B
Like
we
didn't
have
the
scale
of
the
house,
we
didn't
realize
that
the
garage
was
as
tall
as
the
house
that
it
was
just
kind
of
a
misleading
application,
and
then
we
had
these
these
subsequent
issues
between
the
contractor
building.
What
he
wanted
to
build
so
we're
myself
personally
and
clearly
eric
and
todd
are
a
little
leery.
B
We
want
them
because
of
that
we
would
like
to
be
sure
of
the
size
of
the
garage
or
any
accessory
buildings
in
comparison
to
the
primary
home
or
structure
on
the
property,
just
to
make
sure
that
it's
in
somewhat
scale
with
it,
because
it
looks
like
there's
almost
two
houses
on
the
property.
Now
todd
or
eric.
Did
I
mislead
or
misspeak
in
any
way.
C
E
Yeah,
so
he
built
was
he
what
he
wasn't
allowed
to
build?
He
kept
trying
to
come
back
to
us,
but
never
really
submitted
a
plan.
No
and
eventually
just
gave
up
and
tore
the
whole
roof
off
and
rebuilt
it
as
it
was
originally
approved,
which
honestly
still
doesn't
look
that
good,
because
it
wasn't
really
wasn't
right
in.
C
C
B
C
D
Yeah,
the
one
that
the
one
that
was
approved,
it
was
probably
was
five
years
or
more
ago
because
it
was
when
I
was
on
historic
district
before
on
growth
that
garage
this
little
similar
thing
is
bigger
than
my
house
and
I'm
like
a
house,
a
couple
houses
away
from
it.
So
the
scale
does
matter.
It
looks
out
of
place.
