July 12, 2016 at 7:00 p.m.
I. Call To Order:
Chair Birdman called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m.

Answering rollcall were Chair Birdman and Members Moore, Christiaansen, McLellan, Kelly, Nymo,
Pearson, Loving, and Student Member Puerzer. Absent were Member Sussman and Student
Member Otness. Staff Liaison, Senior Planner Joyce Repya and Preservation Consultant Robert

III. Approval Of Meeting Agenda:
Motion was made by Moore and seconded by McLellan to approve the meeting agenda.
All voted aye. The motion carried.
IV. Approval Of Meeting Minutes:
Motion was made by Kelly and seconded by McLellan to approve the minutes from the
June 14, 2016 meeting. All voted aye. The motion carried.
V. Community Comment: None
VI. Reports/Recommendations:
A. Certificate of Appropriateness: 4229 Country Club Road - New Entry & Addition
Planner Repya explained that the proposed Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) application
is comprised of two-parts, including the addition of a 24 square foot front entry portico; and
additions to the rear of the home that are visible from Wooddale Avenue which is the side
street.
The proposed 24 square foot front entry canopy requires a COA because it is a structural change to the
street facing façade of the home. The new portico is designed to provide protection from the elements
at the front entry; and is proportional to the front façade of the home measuring approximately 3.5 feet
by 6.75 feet. The design of the portico is consistent with those previously approved for Colonial Revival
homes in the district with an arched gable front, two - 10” supporting posts and asphalt shingles to
match the house.

The proposed additions to the rear of the home include three components:
1. A single stall tandem garage/laundry & mud room on the west side
2. A 2-story addition - 1st floor family room/2nd floor guest bedroom/bath
3. A single story pass-thru from the living room to the dining room on the east side.
The design of the additions is compatible with the existing home including the 8” smooth
cedar lap siding, Marvin double hung windows, window trim, shutters, as well as asphalt
shingles to match the existing home.
Repya concluded that because the proposed exterior alterations and additions will not
destroy important details and the loss of historic fabric will be minimal, approval of the COA
is recommended subject to the plans presented dated June 24, 2016.
Applicant representative: Mark A. Jones, Jones & Company for owners Sandra & Sylvain
Lesenfants
Motion was made by Moore and seconded by Christiaansen to approve the COA for the
new front entry portico, and additions to the rear of the home visible from the side
street, subject to the plans presented dated June 26, 2016. All voted aye. The motion
carried.
B. Certificate of Appropriateness: 4621 Browndale Avenue - Change to Plan
Planner Repya reminded the board that on November 9, 2015 a COA was approved for a new
detached garage on the subject property. Now, as they are under construction, the homeowner
has requested the following changes to the plan:
1. Remove a roof-top dormer on the front elevation, and the dormer’s window relocated to the
upper level of the south elevation.
2. Replace the limestone window trim proposed with wood/painted trim (except the front
elevation where the limestone trim will remain).
Planner Repya recommended approval of the revised plan noting that the changes cited would
not alter the architectural integrity of the new detached garage.
Applicant representative: Jon Linde, Refined Remodeling for Jason & Josie Tabor
Motion was made by Kelly and seconded by Nymo to approve the proposed changes to the
previously approved detached garage. All voted Aye. The motion carried.
C. Sketch Plan Review: 4608 Casco Avenue
Draft Minutes☒
Approved Minutes☐
Approved Date: Click here to enter a date.
Planner Repya explained that the existing home at 4608 Casco Avenue is a 1977 Contemporary
style. A new owner is interested in demolishing the home and constructing a new one. Because
the home was constructed after the district’s period of significance (1924-1944), it is not classified
as an historic resource, thus it may be demolished; however plans for the replacement home must
meet the criteria of the district’s plan of treatment and receive a Certificate of Appropriateness.
Currently, the concept for a replacement home has been created; and feedback from the HPB is
requested prior to completing the plans to submit with a Certificate of Appropriateness
application.
Property Owner: Dan Schaefer
Mr. Schaefer explained that the architect Andrea Snow was unable to attend the meeting; however
in her absence he provided the following explanation of the plan:
• A 2-story, Italianate style, garage in front of the home - side loading creating a front
courtyard, with a bedroom above garage.
• The street facing façade of the garage will have a single window with pilasters on both
side; and a Juliette balcony above on the second floor.
• Since the plan of treatment does not prohibit, but simply discourages front loading
garages, the garage in the front of the home is shown to preserve an Ash tree in the rear
yard and Maple tree in the front yard, maximize the size of the home, and reduce the
amount of impervious surface on the property.
Mr. Schaefer concluded that he believed the plan provides for a quality, high-style Italianate home
with a quaint courtyard that will fit in well with the neighborhood.
Board members provided Mr. Schaefer with the following feedback:
• The plan of treatment discourages front loading garages, thus the proposal could set an
undesirable precedence unless strong justification for why a rear garage cannot be
designed is provided.
• The front loading garage/courtyard is not a design seen in the Country Club District; and
would be more suitable for a suburban neighborhood such as Bearpath.
• Balance of fenestration is important - front window on the garage lacks symmetry
• The canopy for the Ash tree in the rear yard overlaps with the footprint of the structure, causing
concerns for the survival of the tree due to the root system being compromised during
construction.
• Italianete style is a good choice, however question the wisdom of planning the design of
the home around a questionable tree (both because it is an Ash which are being removed

citywide; and due to the potential damage construction would impose on the tree’s root
structure).
Mr. Schaefer thanked the board for their input.
D. Historic Context Study Update:
Consultant Robert Vogel explained that the Historic Context Study provides the HPB with the
basic foundation for decision making by generating scholarship to substantiate decisions. Mr.
Vogel elaborated on the work he has undertaken relative to the four following themes:
1. Churches
2. Cold War Fall-out Shelters
3. WPA Federal Relief Construction
4. American Four-Square Houses
Mr. Vogel pointed out that when completed, a result of adding these new themes to the Historic
Context Study will provide the board with necessary information to add new properties under
those categories to the list of those that could be eligible for landmark designation. The board
thanked Mr. Vogel for the update. No formal action was taken.

Edina Country Club District Walking Tour 1
A Walk Through the
Historic Country Club
Neighborhood
Edina, Minnesota
The Edina Country Club District is a residential
suburban neighborhood covering a 14-block
area bounded by Minnehaha Creek to the
west, Sunnyside Road to the north, Arden
Avenue to the east, and W. 50th Street to the
south. The District encompasses approximately
555 dwellings and a City park.
History
The Edina Country Club District, platted in 1924
by Thorpe Brothers Realty Company, was one of
the first modern planned communities in
Minnesota. A majority of the homes were
constructed between 1924 and 1941 on land
originally serving the Browndale Farm (Henry
Brown's land) and the old Baird farm (George
Baird). Samuel Thorpe carefully designed every
aspect of the neighborhood to include heavily
tree-lined streets and parks, as well as uniform
building and design restrictions. Unique to the
times, Thorpe ensured that all of the major
utilities were installed before the lots were
placed on market, thus ensuring that the
neighborhood was developed according to his
plan.
Care was also taken to protect the property
values in the form of deed restrictions, valid for
40 years, which were enforced by the Country
Club Neighborhood Association led by Thorpe.
The regulations were strictly adhered to and
dictated, among other things, what kind of trees
could be planted and where garbage cans
should be placed. In addition to the 40-year
usage restrictions, perpetual covenants were
included in the deeds prohibiting non-whites
from owning or residing in the District. It was
expressly stated that "no lot shall ever be sold,
conveyed, leased or rented to any person other
than of the white or Caucasian race ..." Such
private deed restrictions were found to be
unenforceable by the U.S. Supreme Court in
1948.
Thorpe's historic Country Club District was
added to the National Park Service's National
Register of Historic Places in 1980, recognizing
the neighborhood as one of the first planned
communities in the United States.
Ninety-one percent, or 507 of the 555 homes in
the district were built between 1924 and 1944,
when Thorpe Bros. Realty controlled the
Country Club development and enforced rigid
architectural standards on new home
construction through restrictive covenants.
Overall, the level of preservation of historic
facades in the district is outstanding,
particularly in comparison with other
neighborhoods of similarly-aged homes
(including those in historic districts) in the Twin
Cities. The loss of historic integrity (i.e., the
ability to visually convey historical significance)
caused by inappropriate remodeling and
additions has been proportionally small: fewer
than 5 percent of the homes more than 50
years old have been torn down or renovated to
the point that they no longer resemble the
original home.

Characteristics of Common Architectural Styles Represented in the Country Club District
Period House Revival: Edina's Country Club District was constructed during the period house revival
movement of the first third of the 20th century. Architectural historians Poppeliers and Chambers note
that "the horrors of [World War I] convinced many Americans that styles reflecting their own past, with
attributes of comfort, familiarity, safety and honesty were worth emulating." Each period revival house
followed one particular design heritage, but in planned developments such as the Country Club District,
the scale and orientation on site of such houses were generally consistent. In designing a period house,
architects reviewed reference works and authentic examples in order to approximate appropriate
proportions, materials and details. However, most of the homes in the Country Club District are not pure
examples of any particular style. For example, shutters are a traditional feature of Colonial Revival
architecture, but in the District non-functional shutters on Tudor and Spanish-style houses are often
seen. Three of the most common period house revival styles in the Country Club District are the
American Colonial or Colonial Revival style, the English Tudor or English Cottage style, and the
Mediterranean or Spanish Colonial style. The attributes of each of these styles are summarized below,
and characteristic examples of each type in the District are identified on the following pages.
American Colonial and Colonial Revival Style: Colonial Revival houses typically have a rectangular
footprint and may be one, one-and-a-half, or two stories. They may have either a hipped or gabled roof
with a medium pitch. The facade is generally symmetrical, which gives it formality and balance. Side
porches are common. Double-hung, multi-paned windows with shutters are arranged symmetrically,
frequently in pairs. The front door is centered and often accentuated with a combination of pediment,
pilasters, columns, fanlight, or sidelights. Other common design elements are dormers, classical
columns, pilasters, and dentils under the eaves. Siding is frequently clapboard, but many Colonial
Revivals have facings of brick over their wooden framing. Roofing material is typically wood shingles,
with slate tile common in the Northeast. White was the preferred color for many homes, with trim
painted in green, black, or other dark hues. [From Antique Home]
English Tudor and English Cottage Style: The Tudor and English Cottage style is distinctive for its steeply
pitched, cross-gabled roof. Houses in this style are generally one- and one-half to two stories. Decorative
half timbering is common in the gable and second story. The windows are relatively tall and slender with
multi-pane glazing separated by either wood or lead muntins. Chimneys are large and often decorated
with ornate chimney pots and decorative brickwork. Several different siding treatments are common
including brick, stucco, stone, and wood shingle or clapboard. Roofs are found in most roofing materials.
Windows, another distinctive feature, are often casement types opening out as well as the more
common double-hung window. Multiple windows are arranged in ribbons across the facade. In the
English Cottage style in particular, a steeply gabled, enclosed entry is common. [From Antique Home]
Mediterranean or Spanish Colonial Style: The Mediterranean or Spanish Colonial Style was derived in
part from the Beaux Arts style popular at the turn of the 20th century. The style draws on classical design
principles and sought to embody Renaissance ideals. Houses in this style are typically two stories.
Proportion is very important. Roofs are generally of tile and are balanced and low-pitched; occasionally,
roofs in this style may be flat. Eaves are generally widely overhanging with decorative brackets. Exteriors
are most often stucco or stone, and sometimes brick. Entries may be slightly recessed, and emphasized
by classical columns or pilasters. Doors and windows on the first floor are often arched, with upper story
windows usually smaller and simpler. Windows are often casements with minimal wood trim.
Decorative design elements include paired French doors, arches, and wrought iron accents. Chimneys
are simple and rectangular, often stuccoed or plastered stone or brick. [From Antique Home Style]
