The owner of 418 Fairmont Street requested a certificate to replace original aluminum siding with LP SmartSide composite siding; a representative from Platinum Home Design described the material and installation approach.
Board members discussed precedent where LP SmartSide had been allowed when underlying wood could not be repaired, and staff said the board could require retention and reuse of original shutters and trim. The board moved to approve BAR26-68 with conditions to preserve and reuse shutters and existing wood window trim, and the motion passed by voice vote.
Staff will inspect sheathing and exposed areas during installation to address any concealed damage; the project will proceed under typical building-permit review.
