Mike Wolniewicz wants to revise his application originally dated May 13, 2025. Mike would like to change the
Jersey Barriers that were to be placed by the creek side of the property. The Jersey Barriers will be replaced by a
wooden fence. The posts of the fence will be pressure treated - black in color. Fencing will be fresh Larch-flat
boards-stained beige. They will be 1 ½ x 7 ½ boards placed an inch apart. There will be two metal gates that will
also be black in color and have electric to them.

At this time, the board did not have a quorum, so the application had to be TABLED until the May 11, 2026
meeting.

Clinton Brown from Clinton Brown Company Architecture, PC came to talk to the Board in regard to the Grant
Funded Project for the Historic Preservation Board. He congratulated the Board on receiving the Grant and stressed
how important it was to stay on task. The Brochure and Website must be completed by the end of 2026.

Clinton handed out the Project Progress Memo #1 which highlights the projects goals and outcomes. Gregory Pinto,
Architectural Historian, will be the project manager for the work to be done. Gregory would like to set up a virtual
meeting with the Board Members to discuss the scope of services and schedule for implementing the project.
