 Okay, let's get started and see if we can make this quick, although maybe we can drag it on until the rain stops. Welcome. The commission is made up of volunteers with expertise or interest in historic preservation and design. We generally meet on the second Thursday of the month to review cases. Staff to the commission are our urban design and historic preservation staff. They are available to answer questions if you have them, but please do not interrupt proceedings if you do indeed need to speak with one of them. The meeting generally proceeds with the staff calling the case and describing it. I will call for the applicant to come forward afterward to add to the basic description of the request if necessary or if the applicant wishes to do so. If so, the applicant should keep the presentation to 10 minutes or less. The commissioners will then have the opportunity to ask questions. At this point, I will ask if there is anyone in the audience who wishes to speak for or against the proposal. Audience comments shall be kept to two minutes per person. If there is, the applicant will have an opportunity to respond and this rebuttal shall not exceed five minutes. In most of the cases, we will make a decision tonight after all information has been presented. If your case is denied or if you feel that our decision was made an error, you and anyone withstanding have the opportunity to appeal it within 30 days of the decision. If you plan to speak about a specific project you must have signed in. The sheet is in the back of the room. Also, and so that members of the public understand, commissioners are under strict instructions to avoid discussing DDRC meetings and applications with members of the public or with each other outside of these proceedings to avoid ex-party communications. Now, if you wish to speak during the course of these proceedings, please stand and raise your right hand. Nobody. And I won't administer the oath. Staff, would you please call the roll? Mr. Broom. Here. Mr. Cohn. Here. Mr. Daniel. Here. Ms. Bloorwalt. Here. And Mr. Savery. Here. We have a quorum. All right. And does the agenda still stand? We've got a couple of changes since publication. Under the design agenda, the one case was deferred till next month and under historic, case number two was moved to the consent agenda. That's 2001 to 2003 Green Street moved to the consent agenda. So everything's on consent agenda this evening. OK. Could you please read the consent agenda? Sure. Let me first introduce the concept. The DDRC utilizes a consent agenda for those projects which require DDRC review but which meet the guidelines and typically require no discussion. If anyone wishes to discuss an item on the consent agenda, I'll ask that you speak up after the consent agenda is read and we can pull the item for discussion onto the regular agenda. Could you please read the consent agenda? Case number one is one Myrtle Court. This is a request for certificate of design approval for exterior changes and for preliminary certification for the Bailey Bill in the Wells Garden Architectural Conservation District. Case two is 1406 Oak Street. This is a request for certificate of design approval for exterior changes and preliminary certification for the Bailey Bill in the Waverly Protection Area. Case three is 2420 Clark Street. This is a request for preliminary certification for the Bailey Bill and is a national register structure. In case number four is 2001 to 2003 Green Street. This is a request for certificate of design approval for exterior changes and for preliminary certification for the Bailey Bill and is also a national register of building. And we also have the approval of the June minutes. Thank you. Is there a motion to approve the consent agenda and the June meeting minutes? I so move to approve the consent agreement and the June 2018 minutes. There second? Second. Do we have a vote please? Mr. Broom? Yes. Mr. Cohn? Yes. Mr. Daniel? Yes. Ms. Filler-Wilt? Yes. Mr. Savery? Yes. Motion passes. Thank you. Am I correct in understanding that we don't have anything on the regular agenda? That's correct. We're just going to go straight to other business. Do we have any other business? We have a couple of things actually in other business. So the first item under other business, we have the consultants from New South. Tina Poston is here to tell you a little bit about the architectural survey that's going on. Hi, I'm Tina Poston with New South Associates. We are a cultural resource management firm located out of Stone Mountain, Georgia. We have an office here in Columbia as well as others across the southeast. We have been honored to take on the architectural historical survey of the Eau Claire neighborhood in order to identify those historical resources. We started the survey on Monday, and it's been going well so far. That's a little bit about what we're doing. If you have any questions, let me know. I don't think so. Exactly what are you covering in Eau Claire from where to where? So we are working from Avondale to Prescott and between North Main and the railroad tracks. Starting at Avondale. Correct. And going to where, I'm sorry? Prescott. Where's Prescott? That's not as far as Columbia College, is it? No, that's before Columbia College. I believe so, yes. OK, thanks. And is Avondale in Keenan Terrace? Yes, I believe so. And for information, all of this area is in an appellment zone, which we'll have for tax benefits too. Does anybody know if the Keenan Terrace, is it all of Keenan Terrace included in Eau Claire? I think that starts at Sunset and goes to it meets with Seminary Ridge. I know Sunset is the southern boundary of Keenan Terrace, but I'm not really sure what the actual neighborhood boundary is. It looks like it is. Is the blue circle the survey area? No, that's the original historic map of Eau Claire from 1928, I think. There should be a map of the survey area in there. When did you say the project will be completed? We should wrap up the survey by the end of July, and then we'll begin writing the historic report. And we have a deadline of August 24. And y'all had met with neighbors in the area. I think it was the end of June, is that correct? Yeah, we had. The handout is from the public meeting we had on the 25th. And to let the public know. And I have continual contact with the public while we're out there. And what's any other information gathering, or you've sort of gotten to the end of that process? Oh, no, we're still going through all of that, looking for anybody who has any more information to gather and give to us. Wait a second, because I didn't think there were any questions, and then we had questions. Just a second, I think everybody's seeing this for the first time. Do you know if the span of the date of relevance is going to be up until 1975? It is, yes. Number of units? Property, parcel. We started out at 1,200, but we re-evaluated the tax properties, and we're down to about 923. I'm a commercial real estate broker and do a lot of work in that area, so if I can help you let me know. Perfect, thank you. Any other? Want to wait just a second? I think we have all our questions, and thank you very much. Thank you. And I have asked them to come back at the conclusion of the survey, and they'll tell you a little bit about their findings at that time. That'll be September. Thank you. Any other business? Yeah, the next item is you guys have a copy up there of the Innovista guidelines. There's just a. Can you pass them out? Oh, did you not get one? Yeah. Oh, never mind. We do have them. I've got plenty more if you need it. And these will also be, they're uploaded onto the city's website as well. But basically, on page 15, there was a modification, and this is ultimately probably going to, we're going to do this with all the urban design districts, but we have a, previously, the guidelines for storefront glass read to be 88% light transmission is how they always described, which may at one point have been the right way to describe clear glass, but I guess in the last 20 years, and I'm sure the architects know more about the details of glass and all that, but there's a lot to it. So anyway, staff has consulted with some glass experts and folks and have kind of redefined what clear glass really means in a project. So there's some bullet points that apply to how first for glass and new construction should be treated to be considered clear, and then also film applications, the existing glass. And so those guidelines will sort of are more up to date and help make sure things aren't too reflective or too darkly tinted, but still meet some of the more stringent energy code requirements for different projects. So that's really all there is to that. And then I guess, is there anything questions about that? Or? Is this the only thing? Yeah, I mean, the reason this went through when it did was there was a rezoning to a property and it was sort of in the inner Vista West survey district and it just modified the property. I mean, the boundaries of the district slightly. So we sort of had to take the whole and see we're like, let's just address this while it's going through the approval process. So I mean, it's been through council and all that, but it went through all the notifications. It was sort of like a good time to do that. Since we already had to modify the guidelines in the district boundary, so that's how was the timing. But we'll probably be addressing some of those items in the other design districts as well moving forward. The proposed city council zoning meeting and I guess this month or next month, there's like 20 items on it, about half of which are inner Vista rezoning requests that have already gone through planning or for city council approval. I guess this is hand in hand with this. No, I don't know off the top of my head what's on there. It's making pretty substantial changes in a lot of the properties to update it to what its present use is. Is that the... And then last month went to city council? This goes to city council. It was in the start of day for city council next zoning meeting. You're talking about 700 Trevay? No, no, this is not that. This is like 10 properties in the Vista that are being rezoned from their current designation to some new designation. It's not the Trevay or UG sheet property. They've already, I guess, already been... No, not UG, Trevay, I said. Trevay happened a couple months ago. Looking the star there all day. I'm not sure which ones you're referring to. Well, there's about 10 of them that are being asked to rezone from whatever they are to, and I don't have it with me, to some new zoning classification in the Vista. For city council's approval with the next zoning meeting. I just make mention of it is all these sort of, it should be going hand in hand, I would think. So there was a rezoning that occurred for some properties on Trevay. That was been ordered. They were included into the Vista area. They had some height changes. Those went through council and that's when these documents were modified for Vista. These have not been to council yet. Okay, then I'm not sure which one you're talking about. Just raise it for the point, please. Okay, is that, are there any other questions about the Vista? I was just going to say, I'm glad to see the requirement, the shell associated with the low iron glass. Yeah, that's good. It'll be helpful. That's a huge... It's always been sort of a, how do we deal with the 88% so hopefully this will be better. Well, in the coloration too, or lack thereof will be good. That's good. And then finally as you guys know from the Amy's sent an email out, Latoya unfortunately moved out of the city so she's resigned from the DVRC. Sad to see her go but she was our vice chair so we need a new vice chair in case our chair is not present. So we had two nominations, Miss Fuller-Wilt and Mr. Broom. So we're just gonna do a quick little ballot so that we can elect a vice chair and have that in place for when we may need it next time. So if you guys don't want to just write it. Write your vote and then we will... Miss Statley, while y'all are distributing those, I understand they're two new members. One is a real estate person. Who is the other person that's supposedly... For the DVRC? Yeah. Have they been approved yet? Okay, thank you. She doesn't have a pen. Sure. But it's nice of you to let her borrow it. And then also while you guys are doing that, I guess Andrea passed out something, the Envision document. That is just something to look over. We're starting the city's 10 year conference of planning process right now. And lead to fourth in our office is the conference of planner and we'll sort of be managing that process. And she will probably be before you multiple times in the future just to give you updates on that process and where it is. But... When you say it's a 10 year plan, is that how long it's gonna take to implement? Oh, well every 10 years by state law, the city is required to go through a conference of planning process because we have zoning regulations. So it's dictated by state law. So it's a 10 year sort of outlook of, you know, and there's nine required sections. Again, that's dictated by state law. So believe it or not, it's been 10 years since our last one, but we've got... Anyway, Lee will come and talk more about it. But a couple of sections are being done by consultants that have been hired. And then we've got some sections that are being done in-house. And then the cultural resources section is actually being done as a conjunction of the cultural plan that one Columbia for Arts and History and the city are doing together. That'll sort of be that piece of it. So it's multifaceted, but we'll keep you posted on that process. And it looks like we have a vote for Mr. Broom to be our new vice chair. Any other business? I believe that's it. Anything else, Rachel? Anything else? Nope. Motion to adjourn. We'll adjourn. All in favor? Aye. Yes. Adjourned. Thank you.
