DOWNTOWN DESIGN GUIDELINES <br /> DESIGN PRINCIPLES <br /> New Construction: The basic principle for new construction in downtown White Bear Lake is <br /> to maintain the scale and character of present buildings. Generally, new structures should <br /> provide height, massing, setback, materials and rhythm compatible to surrounding structures. <br /> The reproduction of historic design and details is expensive, artificial and is recommended only <br /> in some special cases of infill or small scale construction. <br /> Restoration and Rehabilitation: General principles for restoration and rehabilitation are taken <br /> from the Secretary of Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. <br /> • All work should be of a character and quality that maintains the distinguishing features of the <br /> building and environment. The removal of architectural features is not permitted. <br /> • Deteriorated architectural features should be repaired rather than replaced whenever possible. <br /> In the even of replacement, new materials should match the original in composition, design, <br /> color, texture and appearance. Duplication of original design based on physical or pictorial <br /> evidence is preferable to using conjectural or"period" designs or using parts of other <br /> buildings. <br /> • Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship characteristic of structures <br /> of a period should be treated sensitively. Furthermore, if changes in use of a building are <br /> contemplated, they should be accomplished with minimum alteration to the structure and <br /> fabric. <br /> • In general, it is expected that buildings will be restored to their original appearance. <br /> However, alterations to buildings are sometimes significant because they reflect the history <br /> of the building and the district. This significance should be respected and restoration to an <br /> "original" appearance may not always be desirable. Materials which mask the original <br /> features or character of the building may be recommended for removal. All buildings should <br /> be recognized as products of their own time. (Example: A building that was constructed in <br /> 1890 should resemble a building from 1890). <br /> DESIGN REVIEW PROCESS <br /> New development or remodels in the downtown planning area require a design review permit <br /> prior to commencement. A subcommittee of the Beautification Committee shall review the <br /> project site, architecture and landscape plans with these design guidelines to ensure consistency. <br /> The subcommittee shall then recommend approval, denial or approval with certain conditions to <br /> the City Housing and Redevelopment Authority staff. <br /> 1% <br />
