HomeMy WebLinkAbout24-A080 405 Route 6A Public CommentChairman Wilkins and Yarmouth Old Kings Highway Committee,
The chimney described in the Application does not meet the reconstruction requirements from the
February 12 Hearing. The February 12 decision has not been vacated and remains in effect.
The currently proposed material is a sliced modern brick on a concrete board frame rather than whole
historic brick. It does not replicate the cap on the demolished chimney and it is not in the location of
the chimney that was demolished without a permit. Architectural drawings showing the size, scale, and
structural integrity of the proposed chimney have not been provided.
Evidence that a chimney used the framed opening at the ridge line does not exist. Homes were, and are
today, framed and sheathed before masonry is built. Photos show the foundation of the chimney
removed is 4' to the west of the center of the room, in line with the stove pipe opening to the rear.
The Committee will have to decide if it will vacate its previous ruling and consider this alternate proposal
for a faux chimney in a different location than specified on February 12, 2024.
