Des Plaines Street. On the Historic Urban Survey form for the property (see attached), the home is identified as a shingle-style Queen Anne and is recommended for local landmark status and inclusion in a historic district as strongly contributing. Pursuant to the Village’s Historic Preservation ordinance, due notice was published, and adjacent property owners were given written notice. Mr. Proulx reviewed the staff report dated June 7, 2022. Mr. Proulx concluded the detailed nomination package provides a comprehensive review of the home’s history and a thorough, well-illustrated analysis of the architectural merit for the nomination. Based on the information available prior to the public hearing and discussion by the HPC, staff believes the subject property qualifies for designation under the aforesaid mentioned criteria. Chairman Bortel stated this will be the fourth house to be landmarked in the Village Green area and the nomination will go before the Village Board on June 20, 2022. Chairman Bortel asked the applicant if they wanted to make any comments. The applicant declined. Commissioner Derrick asked the applicant if there is stucco under the decorative wood linear horizontal and vertical trim on the upper portion of west and south gable ends above window heads. (Applicant’s response could not be recorded since they did not approach the microphone.) Commissioner Derrick asked staff to remove stucco from the nomination. Commissioner Derrick asked if there is an enclosed porch on the south elevation. (Applicant’s response could not be recorded since they did not approach the microphone.) Chairman Bortel added the foundation under the area in question is the same foundation throughout the house. Commissioner Derrick agreed with staff to change the period of significance to 1944. The rest of the Commission in attendance agreed as well. Commissioner Derrick stated the porch has been updated/changed and asked the applicant several questions regarding what changes they have made to the porch from 2006 to present day. (Applicant’s comments could not be recorded since they did not approach the microphone.) Commissioner Derrick stated the nomination needs to be updated to reflect the new information from the applicant regarding the renovations done to the front porch that do not date to the period of significance. Commissioner Derrick made a motion to close the public hearing for the landmark designation for the property known as 15135 S. Des Plaines Street. Second by Rapp. Vote by roll call: Barvian, yes; Rapp, yes; Derrick, yes; and Bortel, yes. Motion carried 4-0. Commissioner Derrick made a motion to adopt the findings of fact of staff as the findings of fact of the Historic Preservation Commission and, furthermore, recommend approval of the landmark designation for the property known as 15135 S. Des Plaines Street, based on criteria d, f and j of the Historic Preservation Ordinance, with a period of significance of 1885 to 1944. Second by Commissioner Rapp. Vote by roll call: Barvian, yes; Rapp, yes; Derrick, yes; and Bortel, yes. Motion carried 4-0. 4 Historic Preservation Commission Minutes June 9, 2022 Page 3 of 3 DISCUSSION Chairman Bortel stated he went downtown today and took pictures of the work Big Sammy’s and Uptown Tap have completed.

Chairman Bortel stated there could be a Certificate of Appropriateness application for 24136 W. Lockport St. requesting a pergola. Staff showed a picture of the pass-through window (see attached) at Big Sammy’s.
