Applicant's Description
of Work:
During the summer of 2021 under a Certificate of Non-Applicability, we completed three
repair projects. One of which was the replacement of charcoal grey/black 3-tab shingles
on the roofs of the kitchen wing and ell. Now that the weather has warmed up, we can
reshingle the main block of the house with matching shingles. I believe that there will be
no problem with proceeding under that application.
This application for Applicability is intended to make sure that there is no difficulty with
replacing the current skylight located above the main entrance with its successor 2022
Velux manual, ventilating skylight VS-CO6.
In addition, we will be replacing the existing main facade gutter. Currently the copper
gutter is 5" wide, 16 oz., which suffered warping after the terrible 2015 ice dams. We
would like to install a new 6" wide, 20-24 oz. copper gutter. We will reuse the current
copper downspouts. This new gutter will match the copper gutter recently installed on
the kitchen wing of 131 Federal Street, owned by Charlie Newhall.
