strongly encourages applicant to consider insulation of attic floor as an alternative to wall
insulation. If wall insulation is used, the Commission recommends the use of an interior vapor
barrier to prevent moisture from penetrating from the building interior into the insulation, which
could result in the deterioration of wood frame and finishes;
• Replace clapboards to match existing materials, design, dimensions and exposure.
• House to be painted to match existing colors under previously approved certificate.
There will be no changes in color, material, design, location or outward appearance. Non-applicable

result(maximum of four-i.e. one photograph of each affected fa(ade).
