The Design Review Committee presents a unanimous consensus to the Historic Landmarks Commission that the plan for Ingleside, 7225 Bud Henderson Road, Huntersville, N.C., be approved as shown with the condition that the balustrade on the front porch match the existing in design, that the proposed new intermediate pilasters on the rear porch should be better differentiated from the old by scale or by design, while still compatible with the historic elements of the rear elevation, and that a landscape plan for the section of the yard directly in front of the house will be brought directly to the Historic Landmarks Commission for approval.

The Design Review Committee presents a unanimous consensus to recommend to the Historic Landmarks Commission that the topiary building proposed at the VanLandingham Estate, 2010 The Plaza, Charlotte, N.C., be pushed towards the rear of the property as much as possible, perhaps with single-loaded parking to the rear of the building, that the parking be limited to the minimum number of spaces required by zoning, that the driveways and parking not be constructed of asphalt or concrete, that the driveways and parking areas be constructed with materials that are compatible with the historic character of the property, and with the condition that the massing of the proposed topiary building be reduced.
