Owners asked to return with alternative roofing samples for 27–29 Bridge Street

James Slizewski and Kristian Frikke-Schmitt presented a roof-replacement plan for the twin houses at 27–29 Bridge Street on July 23. The applicants proposed using an architectural shingle rather than a slate or synthetic slate-style shingle. Board members Andy Happ and Ralph Fey expressed concern about the proposed shingle and advised the applicants to investigate alternative products that might better suit the houses' appearance and budget.

The applicants indicated a preference to retain metal for dormer siding but said they would consider cement-board siding if necessary. The board voted to table the application so that the owners can return with alternative roofing samples and additional information.
