COA-0152-2025 (200 New Bern Pl)

This item, COA-0152-2025, concerns proposed work at 200 New Bern Place. The application is for a Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) for major work within the Capital Square Historic District. The proposed project includes the construction of a 6-foot tall brick and wood fence in the rear yard, a trash enclosure, alterations to the existing driveway, and modifications to the railing on the rear porch. The fence design aims to be neighbor-friendly, with a lower solid wood section and an upper lattice section, reflecting the existing porch lattice. The driveway alteration involves restoring the existing concrete drive with a brick paver inset. Staff has noted that specific details regarding brick specifications (color, pattern) and wood finish for the fence are still needed for final approval.

This project involves exterior modifications to a historic property, including the installation of a new fence and driveway repair. Residents in the immediate vicinity may notice changes to the property's streetscape and rear yard appearance.
