1. The house is proposed to be set 23' from the front property line at the closest point. The average front setback of the block is 18', with the adjacent houses set 19' and 21' from the front property line. The house should be moved closer to the front property line to maintain a consistent streetscape pattern with houses on the block. The site plan includes a walkway to the street.

2. The block to receive new construction is relatively vacant, featuring modified Craftsman bungalows, a shotgun house, and a church building. The one-story, three-bay building is proportional to the dimensions of the lot and the context of the block. The side yard setbacks are consistent with the block.

3. The proposed parking meets Infill Housing design guidelines as the parking pad is accessed from the alley and located to the rear of the house. Final revisions to the site plan may be necessary to meet City Engineering standards.

4. Overall, the one-story, three-bay façade is similar in scale to the context. Drawings indicate a 12" tall foundation, which is generally compatible with the context.

5. The house features an 8' deep front porch, recessed under the primary roofline. The porch is compatible with the design of the house and the surrounding block. The drawings indicate 6 by 6 square columns.

6. Guidelines recommend window and door styles be similar, with similar proportions and ratio of solid to void, to historic houses on the block. The proportions of the windows and door on the façade meet the guidelines. One window should be added to the left elevation.

7. The proposed roof pitch (7/12) and material are appropriate within the guidelines.

8. Vinyl lap siding and shingle details meet the design guidelines; the final siding material should feature an overlap instead of flush panel or Dutch lap siding.

9. The final site plan should indicate one new native or naturalized shade tree to be planted in the front and rear yards.

10. The house is proposed to be identical to the adjacent new construction houses at 1708 Ohio Ave (11-B-23-IH) and 1710 Ohio Ave (11-C-23-IH). Revisions should be made to the plans to introduce differentiation in design among the three houses; options could include revised rooflines, porch design and placement, or overall house massing.

New primary residence fronting Ohio Avenue. The one-story, front-gable roof house is approximately 50 ft long by 24 ft wide and is proposed to be set back approximately 23 feet from the front property line. The house will rest on an approximately 12" tall foundation, clad in stucco or brick veneer, featuring a front gable roof (/12 pitch) clad in asphalt shingles. The house will be clad in lap siding with shake siding on the front gable. Parking is proposed to be a concrete parking pad located in the rear of the house and accessed via the alley.

The façade (north) features a recessed corner porch on the left side of the elevation, supported by a 6x6 column. Column and railing materials are unspecified. A door is centrally located on the façade, flanked by a pair of 4/4 double-hung windows on the left and a single double-hung 4/4 window on the right projecting mass.

The left elevation features three 1/1 double-hung windows. The right elevation features two 1/1 double-hung windows. The rear elevation features a projecting front gable porch on the right, supported by one 6x6 column. A secondary access door opens to the porch, flanked by one small 1/1 double-hung window on the left and a larger 1/1 double-hung window towards the center of the elevation.
