MINUTES OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION FOR WASHINGTON COUNTY July 6, 2022 The Washington County Historic District Commission held its regular monthly meeting on Wednesday, July 6, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. in the Washington County Administration Complex, 100 W Washington Street, Room 2001, Hagerstown, MD. CALL TO ORDER AND ROLL CALL The Chairman called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. Commission members present were: Greg Smith, Chairman, Lloyd Yavener, Vice-Chairman, Vernell Doyle, Michael Lushbaugh, and Ann Aldrich. Staff members present were: Washington County Department of Planning & Zoning: Meghan Jenkins, GIS Coordinator and HDC Staff member. MINUTES Motion and Vote: Mr. Yavener made a motion to approve the minutes of the May 4, 2022 meeting as presented. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lushbaugh and unanimously approved. Motion and Vote: Mr. Yavener made a motion to approve the minutes of the June 8, 2022 public hearing and regular meeting as presented. The motion was seconded by Ms. Aldrich and unanimously approved. NEW BUSINESS Permit 2022-03024 – 18840 Sandyhook Road, Knoxville Ms. Jenkins presented a new construction permit for property located at 18840 Sandyhook Road in Knoxville. This property is in the Sandy Hook Historic Rural Village. The property is currently improved with a mobile home, which will be removed and replaced with an 1,120 square foot single family dwelling on an unfinished, walkout basement. Motion and Vote: Ms. Aldrich made a motion to support approval of the construction permit. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lushbaugh and unanimously approved. Bridge Replacement 2109000 – US 522 over I-70 Eastbound Ms. Jenkins presented a proposed project from the Maryland DOT State Highway Administration for the replacement of Bridge No. 2109000 on US 522 over I-70 Eastbound. The State has performed an evaluation of the Area of Potential Effects for this project and has determined there would be no historic properties affected by this project. Concurrence: The Historic District Commission concurs with SHA’s findings that no historic properties would be affected by the project. Historic Tax Credit Ordinance Updates Ms. Jenkins noted that there have been no tax credit applications received by the County since 2013. A survey was taken of surrounding jurisdictions to determine the use of their historic tax credit programs. During the survey, staff was asked to identify reasons for the lack of use of the various programs. The following reasons were cited: • Lack of promotion • Requirement for documentation via receipts and photos • Easement requirements/Property Restrictions • Amount of credit is too low to be worth the effort • Complicated process with taxes involved and year over year application • Too narrow of qualification criteria Staff has been discussing ways to improve the County’s program. The main focus right now is to increase the percentage of tax credits given. Currently, Washington County provides a 10% tax credit on real property taxes based on the amount expended by a property owner for contributing structures which have an Historic Preservation (HP) overlay or contributing structures to the Antietam Overlay zone. There is also a 5% credit for compatible new construction attached to an existing structure. All rehabilitation or restoration projects must follow the HDC’s Guidelines. Jurisdictions that have a higher percentage have shown slightly better participation rates. Staff has also discussed extending the participation areas to include the Rural Villages. An additional credit option is an annual Historic Preservation program, similar to the County’s Agricultural Preservation Districts program. The Historic Preservation program would require a change in the law at the State level. A recorded document for participation in the program would be required. This program would also require semi-annual or annual inspections. There was a brief discussion about the next steps in the process and the timeline for the possible adoption of this type of program. Consensus: The Historic District Commission members were in consensus for staff to move forward with exploring the options presented and updates to the existing ordinance. OTHER BUSINESS Staff Report Ms. Jenkins provided a written report of staff reviews for the previous month. Ms. Jenkins reported the following: • The Design Guidelines have been posted on the County’s website. • She attended the Frederick Historic Preservation Roundtable. They are in the process of updating their Historic Preservation Ordinance. • A Staff Report will be provided for future agenda items that members will be reviewing. Members acknowledged that the Staff Report was very helpful and informative for this evening’s meeting. ADJOURNMENT Mr. Lushbaugh made a motion to adjourn the meeting at 8:25 p.m. The motion was seconded by Ms. Doyle and so ordered by the Chairman. UPCOMING MEETING The next meeting is scheduled for August 3, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. Respectfully submitted, _______________________________________ Jill L.

Specifically Section 20.3.a states: "The Commission shall act upon all applications as required by Section 20.6, Historic Preservation district, Section 5D.4, Rural Village District and Article 20A, Antietam Overlay District of this Ordinance." The HDC shall consider only exterior features of a structure that would affect the historic, archeological, or architectural significance of the site or structure, any portion of which is visible or intended to be visible from a public way. It does not consider any interior arrangements, although interior changes may still be subject to building permit procedures. 1. The application shall be approved by the HDC if it is consistent with the following criteria: HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION A. The proposal does not substantially alter the exterior features of the structure. B. The proposal is compatible in character and nature with the historical, cultural, architectural, or archeological features of the site, structure, or district and would not be detrimental to achievement of the purposes of Article 20 of the County Zoning Ordinance. C. The proposal would enhance or aid in the protection, preservation and public or private utilization of the site or structure, in a manner compatible with its historical, archeological, architectural, or cultural value. D. The proposal is necessary so that unsafe conditions or health hazards are remedied. E. The Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings and subsequent revisions are to be used as guidance only and are not to be considered mandatory. 2. In reviewing the plans for any such construction or change, the HDC shall give consideration to and not disapprove an application except with respect to the factors specified below. A. The historic or architectural value and significance of the site or structure and its relationship to the historic or architectural value and significance of the surrounding area. B. The relationship of the exterior architectural features of the structure to the remainder of the structure and to the surrounding area. C. The general compatibility of exterior design, scale, proportion, arrangement, texture, and materials proposed to be used. D. Any other factors, including aesthetic factors, that the Commission deems to be pertinent. 3. The HDC shall be strict in its judgment of plans for those structures, sites, or districts deemed to be valuable according to studies performed for districts of historic or architectural value. The HDC shall be lenient in its judgment of plans involving new construction, unless such plans would seriously impair the historic or architectural value of surrounding structures. For Rural Villages, additional review criteria for applications are listed in Section 5D.5 Architectural Review of the Zoning Ordinance and include: 1. The exterior appearance of existing structures in the Rural Village, including materials, style, arrangement of doors and windows, mass, height and number of stories, roof style and pitch, proportion. 2. Building Size and Orientation 3. Landscaping 4. Signage 5. Lighting 6. Setbacks 7. Accessory structures Secretary of Interior Standards which may be applicable to this project review include: 2. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alterations of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize the property will be avoided. 5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved. 6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION design, color, texture and where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. 8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken. 9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work will be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. 10. New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. Washington County Design Guidelines for Historic Structures which may be applicable to this project review include: Guidelines For Porches (Page 68) 1. Porch support structures should be inspected regularly to ensure they are not sagging, crumbling or separating from the structure or the rest of the porch. If necessary, stabilization and repair should be undertaken to ensure that the rest of the structure remains intact. 2. Carpet can trap water on wood porches causing decay of painted surfaces or rot of wood, and carpet should not be installed 3. Avoid enclosing a porch. If the porch is not visible from a public right-of-way, it may be enclosed if the change does not significantly alter the original character of the porch. 4. See also Wood Exteriors (p.60) for more guidelines and the Key Themes (p.57) Guidelines for Additions (Page 70) 1. Damage to the original structure and/or obstruction of its character-defining features by an addition should be minimized. 2. Additions should be designed in a way that new construction is differentiated from the existing historic building but should respect the design and character-defining features of the existing historic structure. Additions should also be sited to avoid demolition of contributing structures. 3. New additions should be located on a non-primary façade with minimal visibility from the public right-of-way and should be subordinate to the historic structure. 4. The roof shape of an addition should be compatible with that of the historic building to which it is attached. 5. Existing setbacks, landscaping, or site grading should be preserved when siting an addition if those characteristics contribute to the historic building or its landscape. 6. Rooftop additions should generally be avoided on buildings less than three stories and should be minimally visible from the streetscape by being setback from the primary elevation. Rooftop additions of more than one story should be avoided where feasible. 7. The addition of dormers to historic structures should occur only on secondary façades and not be visible from the public right-of-way when feasible. The dormer addition should be subordinate to the existing roof form. HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION 8. See also Archaeological Resources—Setting and Site (p.50) and Key Themes. (p.57) Staff Report: This project is in the Cavetown Rural Village which is located primarily at the intersection of Mapleville Road and Cavetown Church Road directly west of the Town of Smithsburg. The rural village district contains a survey of 59 contributing resources and 10 non-contributing for a total of 69 items surveyed. Most of the contributing resources are buildings with the district’s period of significance ranging from 1820 to 1950. The primary criteria for significance for the National Register according to the MIHP nomination would be “Criteria C” thought this district has not been placed on the National Register at this time. Most of that architecture is vernacular and typically 2 stories in height. The structure which is the subject of the permit is listed as contributing to the district. It is described as: “two-story vernacular residence of wood construction with laterally-oriented gable roof; two-bay façade with windows flat topped with molded heads; one-story hipped-roof porch on the façade supported by battered wood posts (c.1840)”-MIHP Cavetown. The permit application is for an 852 sq ft rear addition on a crawl space and the replacement of the 120 sq ft covered front porch. Changes to the exterior windows, doors, trim, and siding are also proposed. Changes to interior configuration are not reviewable by Historic District Commission but are also proposed. The roof currently has flat asphalt shingles, and the project does propose to replace the roofing with in- stock fiberglass shingles. Most of the existing guttering is k style with the front porch having half round guttering. The project is proposing replacement with all k style guttering. There is a front porch with tapered columns and a balustrade with wood steps exiting the porch to the right. The structure of the porch is failing with the supports for the columns being almost completely gone on one corner causing the porch to lean and potentially detach from the house. The proposed design has straight columns on the porch with a similar if not identical roofline to existing. The base of the porch will be an elevated concrete construction with concrete steps in the same location as the existing wood steps. No balustrade is proposed because it is not required by code and was not part of the design. The windows of the structure are double-sashed wood construction and contain 4 long vertical panes in the top sash over one pane for most of the visible windows. There are a mixture of wood and vinyl shutters visible on the front façade which are mounted directly and do not appear to have any functioning hardware. The proposed design calls for replacement of the windows as needed for energy efficiency and there are no shutters or window trim proposed for the project. At the time of site visit the previous rear addition/porch had been removed exposing wood drop siding, which may extend to the rest of the structure. The project will involve the removal of the top layer of siding which is believed to contain asbestos. Vinyl siding is proposed for the entire existing structure and addition. The addition will be roughly the same size as the existing structure and therefore not subordinate to the existing structure. However, the rear addition, as viewed from the front elevation, will not be visible. The existing front door has similar window configuration to the rest of the house and is also proposed to be removed during construction. The opening may be slightly enlarged but is not proposed for significant change in location. HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION Staff Analysis: The project does propose the continued residential use of the property. The building size, setback, mass and roof structure all remains intact from the front elevation with the proposed design. The project design lacks repair or reuse of existing elements such as the windows, window trim, and front door. The contractor has indicated the owners may be open to retention of these features but only if energy efficiency can be ensured. The change in materials, lack of reuse/repair of ornamentation for the front porch will reduce the architectural integrity of the structure. However, the proportions of the porch will not detract from the rural village. The proposed design does not significantly differ from other structures also in the district. While the construction proposed does conflict with the County Design Guidelines and Secretary of Interior Standards these are to be used as guidance during review and are not mandatory. The proposed project will also remedy unsafe conditions on the front porch and the removal of harmful materials such as asbestos. Staff Recommendation: Recommend approval of the Residential Addition-Alteration Permit/Addition-Alteration, 2022-04324, located in Cavetown Historic Rural Village with the following recommendations made to the applicant and owner: 1. To the extent practicable, this project should retain the existing wood windows on the primary façade including the flat top trim. 2. To the extent practicable, the existing front door should be retained to keep continuity with the retention of windows on the primary façade and because it is architecturally significant on its own. 3. During removal of asbestos siding, care should be given to minimize the impact to any wood siding underneath. If drop siding is found and can be preserved under the proposed siding this should be undertaken in case future owners wish to restore the structure. This will also limit landfill waste. 4. Landscaping is recommended along the base of the front porch in order to minimize the change in material from wood to concrete proposed in this project.

TITLE: LEASE EXHIBIT ARCOLA TOWER SITE -PARAMOUNT 19224 LONGMEADOW ROAD HAGERSTOWN, MD 21742 SITE PLAN PROJECT NO. 1164.010 Record #Type MIHP#Record Status Folder Status Status Date Task Name Comments Passed - Info 12-Aug-22 Historical Review A site visit to this property on 8/1 revealed the remaining buildings were in severe disrepair with complete failure of all building envelope points and collapse having occurred. Staff reviewed the MIHP record which notes the property has limited, if any, value under the NPS Criteria and considered the potential for the building to be stabilized was minimal. This permit is not being brought before the HDC due to these factors. Days in Review:15 Folder Status Status Date Task Name Comments Passed - Info 29-Jul-22 Historical Review This is not in an HDC review area for new construction.
