Owner Seeks Permission to Remove Two Leaking Chimneys at 126–128 E. Oakland; Board Tables Request Pending Mason Assessment
Stephen DoCarmo presented an application for 126–128 E. Oakland Avenue asking to remove two leaking chimneys that he said would be prohibitively expensive to save. DoCarmo said the property owners cannot bear the cost to restore the chimneys and proposed patching the roof with slate to match the existing material.

Board members asked for a masonry specialist to explain whether the chimneys could be repaired rather than removed. The board voted to table the application to allow brick masons to attend a future meeting and present their reasoning regarding removal versus repair (motion Brown/Blasdale).
