RESOLUTION NO. 94-12 ADOPTED January 25~ 1994
A RESOLUTION: APPROVING THE APPEAL OF THE BOARD OF ARCHITECTURAL
REVIEW (BAR) DECISION ON CASE # BAR 93-75
WHEREAS, on September 8, 1993 the Board of Architectural Review (BAR) denied a request to
install vinyl siding on the residential building located at 411 South King Street; and
WHEREAS, the basis of the denial included the contribution of the structure to the diversity of the
Old and Historic District, but the Hartzog, Lader and Richards building survey does not designate the
structure as "Outstanding", "Excellent" or "Significant"; and
WHEREAS, Article 5, Section 5A-6 (k) Guidelines and Criteria of the Zoning Ordinance specifically
requires that vinyl siding shall not permitted on buildings rated "Outstanding," Excellent," or "Significant"
WHEREAS, the setback of the building from South King Street would minimize the impact of the
vinyl as seen from the public way, and should be considered;
WHEREAS, even though vinyl siding is discouraged in the Old and Historic District due to its
inappropriateness,its potential to damage wood frame buildings and its negative impact upon the character
of the historic district, all applications should be considered on a case-by-case basis according to the
significance of the building, the setback of the building from the public way and whether the location of the
property is on the Loudoun Museum Walking tour.
THEREFORE, RESOLVED by the Council of the Town of Leesburg in Virginia as follows:
The appeal of Case #BAR-93-56 is hereby approved. The applicant may submit and receive a zoning
permit for the installation of vinyl siding on the building at 411 South King Street.
