- 9 1727 Mayflower Lane Addition (Attached Garage) Submitted by Timothy Raggets a) Staff notes this case went to the February 28, 2024 AHBR meeting. Staff had comments regarding the massing of the addition as well as creating significant wall spans and lowering the roof height in order to encourage a strong main mass and secondary subordinate wings. b) Staff notes the applicant submitted revised plans to depict a lower roof height and the second story portion of the addition to be inset; however based on the revised elevations staff has additional comments. c) The Architectural Design Standards state large expanses of blank wall are to be avoided. Fenestration placement should be at a maximum of approximately every 12 feet. Revise the left and right elevation to meet this requirement. d) The Architectural Design Standards state the design of any building shall be judged in reference to its site and the character of its surroundings, not as an independent object. Doors and windows on the public faces of a building should be arranged so that they are regulated by a system of (invisible) parallel and perpendicular lines. Question the tall garage door on the front elevation and if it meets the intent of the design standards. e) Staff notes the LDC district regulations and the Architectural Design Standards do not permit garage doors to face the street. The existing doors are permitted to remain; however, the significant expansion in door height is comparable in surface area to a third bay and does not comply with the regulations. Incorporation of additional garage doors has typically required a variance request to the BZBA.
