Dear Old Kings Highway Historic District Committee Members,
My name is Tim Chiang and I have been made aware of the circumstances, history, and present
request for the allowance of the demolition of his non-historic, non-original rear chimney on his
property at 405 Route 6a. It is important to me as a homeowner of an antique and historic home at
107 Route 6a, Yarmouth Port that a standard of reasonableness and consistency be upheld and
maintained to enable a continuation of support for ongoing engagement by homeowners to sustain
historic preservation. Given that similar chimney removals have been approved by this board in the
recent past, along with the fact that the original beehive fireplace in the house had been removed a
long time ago rending the demolished chimney as not historically relevant, I strongly support the
demolition of the chimney with no good remedy.
Thanks,
Tim Chiang
107 Route 6a, Yarmouth Port, MA
