COA 97-314: 1018 Nassau Street; Single Family Contributing Residence; Nassau Park Historic District; Meredith St. Pierre, Owner. Item Before the Board: The action requested of the Board is that of approving a COA for the installation of a fabric covered carport and replacement of the asphalt driveway, concrete walkways, and steps with brick. It was moved by Ms. Farrington, seconded by Ms. Diggans and passed 4-0 to approve COA 97-314 as presented based upon positive findings with respect to LDR Section 4.5.1(E): 1. Construct a carport 10'6" wide and 20' in length supported on a 1-1/2" pipe frame. The structure will be covered with vinyl canvas in 10" wide pink and white stripes. 2. The existing asphalt driveway and all concrete walkways and steps will be removed and replaced with brick. B. COA 97-315: 114 N.E. 1st Avenue; Single Family Contributing Residence; Old School Square Historic District; Mark Carter, Owner. Item Before the Board: The action requested of the Board is that of approving a COA for the installation of an aluminum garden shed on the rear of the lot. It was moved by Mr. Johnson, seconded by Ms. Farrington and passed 4-0 to continue COA 97-315, to allow the applicant to return with revised plans which would include a painted wood shed with associated landscaping. C. COA 97-316: Mariposa Adult Care Home; 48 S.E. 1st Avenue; Old School Square Historic District; Ninan Cherian, Owner. Item Before the Board: The action requested of the Board is that of approving a COA to allow a cement tile roof to be replaced with fiberglass shingles. The building was constructed in 1955 as a single family residence. At a later date the building was converted to an adult care home and a two story addition was constructed to the rear. The addition was constructed with an asphalt shingle roof. The single story portion has its original cement tile roof. The Board members considered the owner's claim, though not substantiated, of financial hardship. However, they based their decision on the practical and humanitarian aspect of a group of elderly patients living with a torn up and leaking roof because of the errors and omissions committed by the owner and contractor. The Board wanted it specifically noted for the record that this was an exceptional situation and should in no way be construed as setting a precedent for allowing the downgrading of roofing material in historic districts. (For a full background summary of the project see the findings of fact which are included in the project file.) It was moved by Mr. Johnson, seconded by Ms. Diggans and passed 3-1 (Farrington dissenting) to approve COA 316 based upon positive findings to LDR Section 4.5.1(E), for humanitarian reasons, and the emergency nature of the situation, to allow the re-roof with white fiberglass shingles to replace cement tile. IV. DISCUSSION AND ACTION ITEMS: A. Review and Approval of the Historic Preservation Board's Rules and Regulations. Item Before the Board: The rules and regulations for the Historic Preservation Board require a review and approval be made every two years. -2- 06/18/97 It was moved by Mr. Johnson, seconded by Ms. Farrington and passed 4-0 to approve the Historic Preservation Board's Rules and Regulations with the following revisions: 1. The requirement that each Board elect a Second Vice-Chairman be added; and, 2. The provision that "a Board member absent four regular meetings in any twelve month period shall constitute an automatic resignation" be deleted as it is no longer valid. V. REPORTS AND COMMENTS: A. Reports from Historic District Representatives None B. Board Members Mr. Johnson pointed out that the abandoned gas station at the southwest corner of Swinton and Atlantic Avenues was being worked on with out Board approval or a permit. C. Staff Mrs. Cayce stated that Doc's had been sited and would be coming before the Board with a revised landscape plan. Mrs. Cayce stated that 225 Royal Court, Tulia Taylor, owner, had applied for a permit for the fence on the south property line. The Board was of the consensus that it could be staff approved Mrs. Cayce stated that the fence that was installed without a permit or Board approval at 330 N.E. 1st Avenue had been sited, and was in for a permit. The Board was of the consensus that if the fence was painted white it could be staff approved. Mrs. Cayce stated that the silver ball sculpture (a gift from the Delray Beach's Sister City in Japan) at Old School Square was installed in a temporary location because it arrived shortly before the dedication ceremony with visiting Japanese. Old School Square plans to develop a sculpture garden and will bring plans to the Board for review in the near future. -3- 06/18/97 Mrs. Cayce stated that the prospective new owners of the property located at 526 N. Ocean Boulevard have come in for formal replatting of the property. She stated that the new owner is receptive to giving away the historic house, which is located on the property and slated for demolition, if someone will move it. However, he does not want any publicity in the newspapers regarding the give-away, at this time. The Voss family, from whom the property is being purchased, will be in town in a week or two and apparently plan to live in the house for several months. The new owner suggested that Mrs. Cayce phone him in several weeks. VI. ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business before the Board, Ms. Farrington moved to adjourn the meeting at 7:30 P.M., seconded by Ms. Diggans and passed 4-0.

SCALE /F ET 0 100 200 300 400 300 e00 :::::::::::::::::::: :: :: :::::: TOR Project Name: COA-315 Project Location: 114 N.E. 1st Avenue The action requested of the Board is that of approval of COA-315 to install an aluminum garden shed in the rear yard. This is an 8' x 12' prefabricated aluminum garden shed; 8.5' in height. It will be installed on the southwest corner of the lot with a 10' rear setback and 7.5' south side setback which conforms to the requirements in the OSSHAD. This shed will be visible from N. Swinton Avenue as it is adjacent to the City's grass parking lot just north of the Cason Cottage lot. Even if a 6' high wood fence were installed on the rear of the lot it would be difficult to screen the - structure from Swinton Avenue. The new aluminum shed is not complimentary to the contributing vernacular main house. Additionally, the Design Guidelines state that artificial and manufactured materials are always obtrusive and inappropriate in historic districts. The main house is small, approximately 800 sf, and there is no garage on the property, so there is little doubt that storage space is needed. Staff suggests that the applicant consider a wood shed, which when painted to match the house, with foundation planting, and vines on the west facade, would be an attractive and appropriate alternative to the proposed aluminum shed. Prefabricated wood sheds are approximately 20% more expensive but they do not devalue the aesthetics of historic properties as aluminum sheds do. Prefabricated wood sheds are available for installation in the City at Red Barns, The Hitching Post and Sheds America.

The rules of the HPB require that a review and approval be made every 2 years. I reviewed the rules for compliance with the Land Development Regulations and found two items which needed revision. The City Attorney concurred and the rules have been revised as follows: 1. The requirement that each board elect a Second Vice-Chairman (pg. 1); and, 2. The provision that a member absent 4 regular meeting in any 12 month period shall constitute an automatic resignation is no longer valid (pg. 2). file/u//ww/rules RULES AND REGULATIONS CITY OF DELRAY BEACH HISTORIC PRESERVATION BOARD ARTICLE I • Section 1.

Washington,D.C. 20036 Ill TEL(202)588-6000/TTY(202)588-6200 FAX(202)588-6038 MARCH 1997 "Historic Homeownership Assistance Act" H.R. 1134/S. 496 Legislation to create a 20% tax credit for the rehabilitation of a historic structure occupied by the taxpayer as his principal residence has been introduced by Representatives Clay Shaw(R- FL)and Barbara Kennelly(D-CT)in the House(H.R. 1134),and by Senators John Chafee(R RI)and Bob Graham(D-FL) in the Senate(S. 496). Goals of the Historic Homeownership Assistance Act: • expand homeownership opportunities for low-and middle-income individuals and families; • stimulate the revival of declining neighborhoods and communities; • enlarge and stabilize the tax base of cities and small towns; • preserve and protect historic homes. Major Provisions of the Historic Homeownership Assistance Act: • Rate of Credit,Eligible buildings: The rate of credit is 20%of qualified rehabilitation expenditures. Eligible buildings include those listed on national or federally-certified state and local historic registers,and contributing buildings located in national or federally-certified state and local historic districts. Eligible buildings (or a portion) must be owned and occupied by the tax payer as his principal residence. Condominiums and cooperatives would be eligible for the tax credit. Rehabilitation would have to be performed in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Historic Rehabilitation. • Maximum Credit,Minimum Expenditures: The maximum credit allowable would be$50,000 for each principal residence,subject to Alternative Minimum Tax provisions. Rehabilitation must be substantial—the greater of$5,000 or the, adjusted basis of the building—with an exception for buildings in census tracts targeted as distressed for Mortgage Revenue Bond purposes under I.R.C. Sec. 143(j)(1)and Enterprise and Empowerment.Zones,where the minimum expenditure must be$5,000. At least 5 percent of the qualified rehabilitation expenditures would have to be spent on the exterior of the building. The mission of the National Trust for Historic Preservation is to foster an appreciation of the diverse character and meaning of our American cultural heritage and to preserve and revitalize the livability of our communities by leading the nation in saving America's historic environments. Talking Points for the Historic Homeownership Assistance Act H.R. 1134 and S. 496 • Legislation would establish a 20 percent historic rehabilitation tax credit to homeowners who rehabilitate or purchase a newly rehabilitated eligible home and occupy it as a principal residence. • • This credit focuses on the housing stock in deteriorating neighborhoods and communities where the goals of historic preservation, community revitalization, and homeownership can be pursued concurrently. • Qualifying properties would be those listed individually on the National Register of Historic Places, or contributing structures within historic districts listed on the Register, or within certified state or local historic districts. Many historic districts are in small towns working to strengthen and diversify their economic base and to make their communities attractive places to visit and live. • The Historic Homeowner Tax Credit will provide a powerful incentive to home owners and home buyers to showcase their community's historic resources and attract reinvestment in older areas. • In our community,neighborhoods such as • would benefit from the incentive for people to move back in and fix up the old houses. This would bring abandoned properties back to the tax rolls, and stabilize our older neighborhoods. Also;developers could rehabilitate properties, sell them, and pass the credit on to the home buyers. In this way, non-profit housing providers could utilize historic homes as a way to further affordable home ownership. • This credit will help citizens of all income levels who are living in or wish to live in historic neighborhoods. Home buyers who do not have sufficient tax liability to utilize the credit would be eligible for a Historic Home Mortgage Credit Certificate, which can be used to buy down the interest rate on their home mortgage,or in distressed areas could be put toward the downpayment. • In order for this legislation to become a reality, it needs the active support and hard work of our members of Congress. There are many tax proposals before Congress. Legislation such as this,which would help both large cities and small towns rebuild their core neighborhoods and strengthen their entire economic and social environment, deserves their support. I urge you to work on getting this legislation passed. MAR 21 '97 12:02 FR TO 315612437221 P.03:05 Statement by Senator Bob Graham in the United States Senate Concerning the Introduction of The Historic Homeownership Assistance Act March 20, 1997 Mr. President, today I join my colleague Senator Chafee in support of The Historic Homeownership Assistance Act. This bill would spur growth and preservation of historic neighborhoods across the country by providing a limited tax credit for qualified rehabilitation expenditures to historic homes. An understanding of the history of the United States serves as one of the cornerstones supporting this great nation. We find American history reflected not only in books, films, and stories, but also in physical structures, including schools, churches, county courthouses, mills, factories, and personal residences. The bill that Senator Chafee and I are co-sponsoring focuses on the preservation of historic residences. The bill will assist Americans who want to safeguard, maintain, and reside in these homes which chronicle America's past. The Historic Homeownership Assistance Act will stimulate rehabilitation of historic homes while contributing to the revitalization of urban communities. The federal tax credit . provided in the legislation is modeled after the existing federal commercial historic rehabilitation tax credit. Since 1981, this commercial tax credit has facilitated the preservation of many historic structures across this great land. For example in the last two decades, in my home state of Florida, $238 million in private capital was invested in over 325 historic rehabilitation projects. These investments helped preserve Ybor City in Tampa and the Springfield Historic District. in Jacksonville. The tax credit, however, has never applied to personal residences. It is time to provide an incentive to individuals to restore and preserve homes in America's historic communities. The Historic Homeownership Assistance Act targets Americans at all economic levels. The bill provides lower income Americans with the option to elect a Mortgage Credit Certificate in lieu of the tax credit. This certificate allows Americans who cannot take advantage of the tax credit to reduce the interest rate on their mortgage that secures the purchase and rehabilitation of a historic home. • rpR 21 '97 12:02 FR TO 315612437221 P.04/05 • For example, if a lower-income family were to purchase a $35,000 home which included $25, 000 worth of qualified rehabilitation expenditures, it would be entitled to a $5, 000 Historic Rehabilitation Mortgage Credit Certificate which could be used to reduce interest payments on the mortgage. This provision would enable families to obtain a home and preserve historic neighborhoods when they would be unable to do so otherwise. Mr. President, the time has come for Congress to get serious about urban renewal. For too long, we have sat on the sidelines watching •idly as our citizens slowly abandoned entire homes and neighborhoods in urban settings, leaving cities like Miami in Florida and others around the nation in financial jeopardy. For example, according to U.S. Census data, in the decade from 1980 to 1990, Chicago lost 41,000 housing units, Philadelphia 10, 000, and St. Louis 7,000. The erosion of a sense of community and culture once shared by our urban nieghborhoods and towns further magnifies the loss. By addressing years of neglect and a general decline in investment in our older neighborhoods, this bill will empower families and individuals with the financial incentives needed to revitalize historic housing in our urban communities. Recognizing that the states can best administer laws affecting unique communities, the Act gives power to the Secretary of the Interior to work with states to implement a number of the provisions. The Historic Homeownership Assistance Act does not, however, reflect an untried proposal. In addition to the existing commercial historic rehabilitation credit, the proposed bill incorporates features from several state tax incentives for the -preservation of historic homes. Colorado, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, and Utah have pioneered their own successful versions of a historic preservation tax incentive for homeownership. At the federal level, this legislation would promote historic home preservation nationwide, allowing future generations of Americans to visit and reside in homes that tell the unique history of our communities. The Historic Homeownership Assistance Act will offer enormous potential for saving historic homes and bringing entire neighborhoods back to life. I urge my colleagues to support this bill for the preservation of history. • • :1 • • • •• ' • • • e• . --. 114 ' • 'till• 11=11 011"111 -- • . _ -- - • 1- - • „ • -• - — - — . • . . ..• • 's• •:.;%;". • . •. . • •- .•• - ;,,:-!••••,,I,.• .1,72-;,'":,••1',F;;;• •'-';;41; - • ••• -.0-:>14 $1 •••r,14.--i.• ••;: . • •" • ••••••s::•.•••••"-r ' •.7. .
