White Oak, to be approved by staff prior to the issuance of a building permit. Ms. Strutman introduced David Volz, Bruce Korn and the owners to the members. She presented a site plan, explaining that the home features a below grade, tuck under, front entry garage; that there will be no HVAC units and that a pool and pool equipment will be in the rear yard. She indicated that they worked closely with City staff regarding the driveway which is located in the center of the lot. She noted that Baxter Gardens prepared a detailed landscape plan. Chairman Lichtenfeld asked about storm water drainage. Mr. Volz presented an existing and proposed site plan which compared the impervious coverage for each. He noted that there will be less driveway surface area which will reduce run-off. He noted that half the roof will flow to the west and the other half to the east; 1 emitter in the rear yard and 2 more in the front yard which will result in less flow to the east and west. Louis Clayton noted that there is a decrease in cfs of 0.03 (going from 0.52 to 0.49). Ms. Chapin informed the members that during the initial site review, they were asked to pay a fine into the Forestry fund after a manual calculation; now it is $3,000 more, which is a significant increase.

Ms. Chapin informed the members that during the initial site review, they were asked to pay a fine into the Forestry fund after a manual calculation; now it is $3,000 more, which is a significant increase. She asked that they be allowed to work with staff and allow some flexibility regarding the new street tree as they want a Red Maple and the City is asking for a Swamp White Oak. Ron Reim asked about the difference in payment due the Forestry fund. Ms. Chapin indicated that in early March she was told that the database was being changed out and not available at the time so it was manually calculated. Spencer Litteken, Civil Engineer, City’s Public Works Department, informed the members that City staff established an estimated value which was noted as an estimate and subject to change; the value of the street trees are actually determined by a third party. He stated that a certified arborist makes a site visit and looks at other area trees to determine what species would be desired; noting that a Swamp White Oak does better in a narrower tree lawn. Mark Winings asked about the front yard impervious coverage issue, noting that no just cause was given by the applicant as to why a modification was being requested. Ms. Strutman stated that there is a minimal amount of paving in the front yard and that the owners need the front sidewalk.

Ron Reim made a motion to approve the site plan per staff recommendations 1 ($7,926 payment into Fund) and 2 (new street tree), noting that this Commission is offering the applicant the opportunity to further work with City staff to allow a Red Maple only if City staff allows (if not, the applicant must plat a Swamp White Oak as noted in the report). Susan Istenes noted that the established fine and variety of street trees are at the discretion of the City’s Public Works Department pursuant to their professional opinion. The motion was seconded by Josh Corson and unanimously approved by the members. The architectural aspects of the project were now up for review. Susan Istenes explained that this is a request for review of the design and materials associated with the proposed construction of a new 4,060-square-foot single-family residence (excluding the basement) with a below grade, front-loading garage. The existing home to be demolished is a 3,712-square-foot, one‐and‐a‐half story craftsman style house, built in 1919, and is one of four remaining historic homes on the block. The home to the south (146 North Central Avenue) is a traditional brick American foursquare, built in 1910, and the home to the north (150 North Central Avenue) is a postmodern contemporary brick home, built in 1999. Infill homes on the block, which were built primarily between 1995 and 2005, share the following common architectural and siting characteristics:
