The project as depicted in the enclosed drawings prepared by Jeffrey Morton Architects and dated July 6, 2012 is recommended for approval with the following conditions: The new windows must be either alu"num clad or wood and match the same size, shape, and style as the original windows. The divided] ite pattem depicted in the drawings is acceptable. Muntins must be located on the exterior of the glass. 2_ The new commercial and service doors are acceptable as depicted and may be either wood or metal. The colors of the doors, windows and any trim should complement each other_ The property owner should continue to consult with me if the design of the doors should change. This project, d done in conformance with the approved plans and corWltions, will meet the City of Dubuque Architectural Guidelines. The property owner must be aware that local approval and conditions do not necessarily mirror those standards set forth by the State of Iowa for Historic Tax Credit projects. If Federal funding or Hstoric Tax Credits are planned for the project, it is highly recommended the propefty owner consult with the State Historic Preservation Office prior to commencing work. cc Todd Carr, Building Services Manager 42 � � a AnoiboLLVI M ATFaNtlU4 iY liO VA=F34MG AiblLfArMT 4M r• I EEI ail EEEEI EM PFRI 43 INSURANCE SCHEDULE AA 45 City of Dubuque Insurance Requirements for Lessees of City Property and Right of Way Licensees or Permittees 119IR111 _►fLyM1yawl :1•I11WAUM shall furnish a signed certificate of insurance to the City of Dubuque.
