Richard M. Kobylski, representative .
l�r Kobylski presented the color package and the basic representa-
tion of bricks . He stipulated that bricks very similar would be
used if those shown are unavailable .
Chairman Rosenfeld objected _to the painted brick faces because the
base would show at door and window jambs , or on chimneys . He asked
that the natural mortars be used preferably and that all defective
painted bricks be replaced - Customer option would: be black or brown.
The color package was discussed . Trim pieces will match siding.
Caulking was discussed and the developer was asked to use color
where possible; white , black, brown and cream are available .
Commissioners Kirby and Hardt agreed that it was a good looking
color package .
Mr. Kobylski agreed to comply with the monotony code . He left a
copy of the color package for the minutes .
Mr. Kobylski presented the outside light fixtures . They were
accepted with the stipulation that black base spun aluminum be
used on the garages .
•
The landscaping is not complete but a sketch was presented .
Chairman Rosenfeld was of the opinion that the prices quoted.
are somewhat high. The plans are only representative ,of the
scope of the work that is to be done .
•
Commissioner Hardt suggested that owners are likely to move
low shrubs so trees are more feasable .
Chairman Rosenfeld preferred a dollar amount of shrubbery
similar to the concept presented ,on corner lots .
Mr. Kobylski agreed to $200 .00 to $250.00 wholesale price .
The lighting of the models was stipulated to be directly on
the homes and not to shine on the road where it might reflect
into drivers• eyes . The developer is to use the same type of
wooden sign, in front of the models at #83 and Busch Rd . and
that no prices will appear on the sign.
Mr. Kobylski stated the toe boards will be treated wood ; also
stated the corner vents would be painted out to match siding.
The Nantucket - the downspouts will be corrected and drawings
given to Dominick Saviano .
The siding will be double four (4) or five ( 5) inch aluminum--
four (4) is preferable because five (5) is too large for smaller
homes . Mr. Kobylski agreed.
Chairman Rosenfled stated the only thing left to be presented was
the landscaping of the models .
Mr. Kobylski thought it would be ready .in two (2) to three ( 3)
weeks. He will submit it and return to view it with the commission.

motion as follows :

Strathmore Grove Unit Five(5) be accepted .
2 . That the developer will landscape the corner side lots with
shrubbery as similar as possible to those concept purnoes
