3. Discussion and possible action on the 1048 S. Church Street:
Mrs. Mc Glasson explained that she was asked to submit a certificate of appropriateness for the paint
color of her house that was painted in 2015. She explained that before she panted the house that she
came to the city of Paris and talked to someone in engineering who told her that she could paint her
house as long as she goes back with the existing colors. She explained that the paint was faded, and it
needed repair, and the house had been painted numerous colors in the past. She did pick some colors,
and went with it and felt misdirected by staff. Commissioner Dux explained to the Mrs. Mc Glasson that
it is the desire that the commission and Mrs. Mc Glasson come to an equitable solution to get it into
compliance. Mrs. Mc Glasson asked if there is a grant and wanted to be directed after more discussion
on colors in the historic palate. After some discussion on how to get in compliance, Mrs. Mc Glasson
left before there was a commission decision.
Action taken: No Motion made.
Commissioner Dux gave direction for the HPO and Code enforcement to work with Mrs. Mc
Glasson. He recommended the denial of the existing paint colors on the house, and to work with
Mrs. Mc Glasson for 6 months without any violations notices from code enforcement to work
with her to get the trim painted a historic color and work with her for the body of the house after
the trim is painted. He requested the HPO to bring a report back to Commission in the next
month's meeting.
