GUIDELINES FOR RENOVATION FOR PROPERTIES IN A HISTORIC DISTRICT
The property described in the attached document is either in a local historic district (meaning that the local historic preservation ordinances apply to the exterior only), in a national historic district (meaning that the Secretary of the Interior's historic preservation standards apply to both exterior and interior work) or is an individually designated historically significant building under one of these two authorities. In any case, the following SHALL apply to the work under any contract to renovate this property and it is a condition of the use of our federal funds that these guidelines are followed.
The specifications have been written to meet these standards. If any work is added after the bids are submitted, the Contractor is eligible for a change order to cover additional costs.
In general, the following items and conditions apply to all work on historic properties:
1. Whenever possible the Contractor shall repair and reuse original materials and restore the original structure and details.
2. When new materials are specified, the Contractor shall assume (even if it is not specifically noted) that the new materials shall match as closely as possible either
• (first choice) the existing damaged materials that are being replaced, or
• (second choice) the original materials on adjacent surfaces.
3. If there are no original materials to match, the Contractor shall select new materials that are in line with the design period and style of the original structure - that is, they shall "evoke" the feeling of the period of the structure.
If in doubt, ask the Community Development Rehab Specialist for guidance.
4. When new work requires penetrating the exterior walls or roof - such as with a new vent stack, roof ventilation --or hanging something modern on the outside of the structure -- such as a new electrical service panel -- penetrating pipes or modern appliances shall be located out of sight of the street or sidewalk whenever possible. Locations of new penetrations require approval of the C.D. Rehab Specialist BEFORE work begins.
5. When new equipment -- such as a new HVAC unit -- will set the equipment on the property outside of the house, the Contractor shall clear the location with the C.D. Rehab Specialist prior to beginning work on that location.
6. Where submittals are required, the Contractor shall submit materials, catalog cuts or color chips to the Rehab Specialist who will forward them to the proper historic authority for approval. Comments will be returned to the
Contractor within 10 business days. The Contractor shall allow time for this process and anticipate this delay as part of his agreed schedule.
7. If the Contractor proceeds with work not in compliance with historic guidelines, without having consulted the C.D.
Rehab Specialist, and the work is rejected by the agency with historic jurisdiction, the Contractor will be liable for removing and redoing the work to the historic guidelines at his own expense.
