SPRINGFIELD HISTORICAL COMMISSION
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 2025 | HEARING OVERVIEWS
CONTINUED HEARINGS
102 THOMPSON STREET (FRONT PORCH RENOVATIONS) (HARDSHIP)
• REASON FOR CONTINUANCE: The hearing was continued for the purpose of allowing the
Petitioner to research how to recreate and restore the historic railing, and then continued
again to allow the Petitioner to attend to a matter in California for the month of September.
• APPLICATION OVERVIEW: The Petitioner has submitted an Application for Certificate of
Hardship for the purposes of obtaining approval for the already completed exterior
renovations of the first- and second-floor front porches. When comparing the completed
work with what previously existed:
o First Floor Front Porch
The front porch steps black pipe handrail was replaced with what appears to
be two wooden railings, presumedly pressure treated, with the
spindles/balusters affixed to the front of the rails instead of sitting in-
between the two rails;
The porch railings were completely replaced with what appears to be
pressure-treated wood, with the spindles/balusters affixed to the front of
the rails instead sitting in-between the two rails; and
The wood decking was replaced with pressure-treated wood.
o Second Floor Front Porch
The porch railings were completely replaced with presumedly pressure-
treated wood. The spindles/balusters appear to be affixed to the back of the
rails instead of sitting in-between the two rails;
The wood shakes could potentially have been replaced

meet with the Commission to discuss the completed renovations and develop a
mitigation plan.

IV. OTHER MATTERS PROPERLY BEFORE THE COMMISSION – REDEVELOPMENT OF 113-115 STATE STREET
(11110-0643), 1163 MAIN STREET (08130-0570), AND 11-21 STOCKBRIDGE STREET (11190-0044)
OVERVIEW
• Carol Dooney, from Chicago, Illinois, as well as Julian Looney, from College Park,
Maryland, were before the Commission to provide an overview of the proposed
project at the aforementioned addresses. Specifically, the addresses above are not
located in a Local Historic District, nor listed on the National Register of Historic
Places, thus not requiring formal approval by the Commission; however, a National
Historic District is expected to be approved in the near future that would include the
subject properties, and therefore, the representatives wanted to present the project
to the Commission for transparency purposes and demonstrate that there will be no
adverse impact to the subject buildings.
• C. Dooney commenced with informing the Commission that the recently approved
project pertaining to the building at 1155 Main Street has commenced, and just
recently, the clock had been restored and was lit.
• J. Looney informed the Commission that the subject properties spanned multiple
blocks, and that there is a mindset to connect everything together, specifically with
residential lobbies to enter both buildings on both opposing sides of Stockbridge
Street. Retail space along Main Street, including space for restaurants, are proposed.
There is a deliberate effort to reference back to what was there in the late-1800s
and early-1900s, as the project team is researching what the store fronts looked like
in that era.
• C. Dooney informed the Commission that the building at 1163 Main Street once
contained residential units on the second floor.
• Chair A. Nardi confirmed with J. Looney that Stockbridge Street will remain one-
way; that there is a deliberate effort to keep traffic slow. C. Dooney advised that
there is an effort to be sensitive to the Music School’s needs along Stockbridge
Street.
2|Page
• J. Looney then informed the Commission that the existing garage will be eliminated,
which did not previously exist in the early-1900s. C. Dooney advised that the
windows that were removed and replaced with bricks will be restored back to being
windows.
• J. Looney provided a brief overview of the previously approved Colonial Block
project, specifically noting that they are looking to restore the façade back to how it
appeared in the early-1900s. There is an emphasis on restoring light and providing
more glass.
• Chair A. Nardi opined that he liked the proposal and that he appreciated the project
team’s transparency. He also opined that the he thought the designers were being
sensitive to the historic character of the buildings.

• Due to the Petitioner having a conflict later in the evening, the Commission agreed
to move this hearing up on the agenda. April Mitchell-Edmonds, the landowner of
81 Clarendon Street, was before the Commission to present the proposed project.
• A. Mitchell-Edmonds informed the Commission that the request was to install a
wheelchair lift instead of a ramp, as it would be less disruptive and would be easily
shielded behind vegetation. Her mother was aging in place and in need of an ADA
accessible way of entering the residence, and that a ramp would encumber the
walkway, noting the only feasible entrance was through the front entry double
doors. A master carpenter was obtained to help with the design – a concrete pad
will be poured with the lift being installed on-top; the railings will remain in place, a
swinging gate railing to replicate the railings will be installed. The remaining
railings will be repaired; all materials are obtained. A licensed contractor will be
commissioned to help rebuild the deck.
• Chair A. Nardi inquired about the decking; A. Mitchell-Edmonds advised that the
material will change to a composite material that is tongue and groove. She advised
that higher quality materials were being obtained.
• Chair A. Nardi asked a clarifying question about the railing; A. Mitchell-Edmonds
confirmed that the railing accessing the lift will be a swinging railing that will look
exactly the same as the existing railing.
• Chair A. Nardi inquired as to whether the lift would be temporary; A. Mitchell-
Edmonds responded in the affirmative noting that it would be good for the next
generation in the event it was needed.
• Commissioner W. Kroll asked about the material of the decking, noting that the
Commission generally does not approve a product without knowing the specifics
about the product.
3|Page
• Commissioner V. Nespor advised that the contractor would likely know the specifics
about the materials. Staff Member A. Strniste could review previous approvals to
see what materials have been previously approved.
• No public comment was provided.
• Chair A. Nardi advised that they could approve the application based on the sample
presented during the evening’s hearing.
• Commissioner V. Walsh opined that the lift is not the issue. Discussion about the
composite tongue and groove sample product commenced. Commissioner V. Walsh
opined that the direction of the decking boards was important. A. Mitchell-Edmonds
advised that the boards would remain the same direction – perpendicular; that
there is an effort being made to replicating and reinforcing the deck.
• Commissioner W. Kroll made a motion to approve the proposed construction of an
ADA accessible lift onto the west side of the first-floor front porch, as presented in
the application and during the evening’s hearing with the condition of removing the
lift when it is no longer required, and that the proposed reconstruction of the deck
be comprised of the tongue and groove composite board presented at the evening
hearing, ensuring that the boards are perpendicular as discussed. The motion was
seconded by Commissioner J. Crowell. Commissioner V. Walsh informed the
Petitioner that should anything change, include the lattice work, etc., the change will
need to be reviewed. The motion was approved unanimously.
VI. CONTINUED HEARING – 223 LONGHILL STREET
• The landowner relating to 223 Longhill Street was unable to attend the evening’s
meeting. The Commission had tabled the hearing, but did not return to the item.
With no action taken on the hearing, it will be heard at the Commission’s next
meeting – Thursday, November 20, 2025.

• Joseph Bernard was before the Commission to discuss the proposed replacement
door application.
• J. Bernard informed the Commission that he was looking to replace the front entry
door. Prior to purchasing the building, the house was breached via the front door by
the police leaving interior and exterior damage to the door. After researching front
doors, J. Bernard opined that the proposed style was consistent with the era of the
residence.
• Chair A. Nardi confirmed with J. Bernard that the subject door was the front door.
Commissioner W. Kroll confirmed with J. Bernard that the proposed door was not
thinner than what existed.
4|Page
• J. Bernard informed the Commission that the paneling on the bottom of the door
was the same; however, additional glass would be added; hopefully a mail slot
would be added to the proposed door.
• Commissioner V. Walsh asked if J. Bernard was concerned about the additional light;
J. Bernard responded that the hallway was dark and that they were looking to add
light.
• Commissioner W. Kroll asked if the storm door would remain, as it may be easier to
break in; the storm door adds additional security. J. Bernard responded that the
storm door would probably remain.
• During public comment, Paul Jones from 79 Thompson Street opined that the
replacement door would be good to the community and that the damaged caused to
the door was the result of a misfortune.
• Commissioner V. Nespor made a motion to approve the application as presented.
Commissioner W. Kroll seconded the motion. With no discussion on the motion, it
was approved unanimously.

• Paul Jones, landowner of 79 Thompson Street, was before the Commission to
present his application relating to the installation of solar powered panels onto the
detached garage.
• P. Jones informed the Commission that he was previously before the Commission to
install solar powered panels onto the main building; however, since that application
the cost of the project went up $10,000. As a result, he determined to relocate and
downsize the project to the detached garage. The application was submitted as a
hardship; that he was looking to do the small project first and come back with the
bigger project in the future.
• Chair A. Nardi asked if the project would contain eight panels and Commissioner W.
Kroll asked if the garage was staying put. P. Jones responded that the garage will
remain unchanged and that the project will only contain three panels – that the
rendering was just to give an idea. He was looking to have a low profile; the panels
will be on the side of the garage rather than the front; black and silver in color.
• P. Jones informed the Commission that he interviewed three different licensed
electricians and will be looking to choose one shortly. The conduit will be placed
behind the main house and painted the same color as the house.
• Commissioner W. Kroll informed P. Jones that the Commission is concerned what
the project looks like, and expressed concerns about the location of the utility
equipment and conduit. Since an electrician has not yet been selected, the location
5|Page
of the utility equipment and conduit could potentially change; the Commission
approves the specific location of the conduit and equipment.
• Chair A. Nardi advised that the hearing could be continued so the Petitioner could
obtain that information. Commissioner W. Kroll advised that while the Commission
could approve the project that evening, if anything changes, he would have to come
back.
• During public comment, Harry Seymour from 68 Washington Road provided
support for the application upon learning where the conduit and equipment will be
located. Jose Claudio, from 100 Clayton Street, expressed support for the project
and opined it was a great opportunity.
• Commissioner W. Kroll made a motion to continue the hearing to the November 20,
2025 meeting agenda. The motion was seconded by Commissioner V. Nespor. With
no discussion on the motion, it was approved unanimously.

• Jeff McGeary, Jonathan Slater, and Rafal Toczko were before the Commission to
present the application relating to exterior renovations to the building at 353 Maple
Street.
• Jeff McGeary informed the Commission that the model of the program at 353 Maple
Street has changed, thus invoking some upgrades, including accessibility
requirements. In addition, windows and doors are to be replaced.
• Jonathan Slater advised that a ramp would also be installed, and due to the
configuration of the property, visibility of the ramp is inevitable and hard to
disguise. The windows are diamond grids, aluminum facing; with a financial
challenge, restoring the 59 windows is challenging. Exhaust vents relating to the
commercial kitchen on the roof will be required.
• Commissioner J. Crowell asked for clarification about what is being replaced; Jeff
McGeary advised that all of the windows would be replaced. Commissioner V.
Nespor asked if any of the windows were stained-glass; the Petitioners responded
no. J. Slater advised that they looked at many different windows; that the proposed
vinyl windows do provide diamond grids.
• R. Toczko provided an overview of the proposed ramp construction plan – that a
concrete path will be installed to meet the ramp on the Maple Street side of the
building. The ramp is intended to be a permanent fixture, black satin aluminum.
• Chair A. Nardi asked if the porch railing and post were to be removed; R. Toczko
advised that the railing and post were wide enough apart to where they would not
need to be removed and that a platform will be extended from the porch.
6|Page
Commissioner V. Nespor inquired about the permanent-ness of the ramp; J. Slater
advised that it would be permanent for as long as the program exists.
• Chair A. Nardi sought clarification about the diamond grid patterns; J. Slater advised
that their team was making an effort to stay as consistent as possible and will have
diamonds. Commissioner V. Nespor inquired as to whether the grids would be on
the interior or exterior of the window; J. Slater responded that they are proposing
exterior grids.
• No public comment from those in attendance was provided. Chair A. Nardi then
read J. Boone’s written public comment into the record.
• Commissioner W. Kroll asked what would happen with the original aluminum
windows once replaced and asked if they could be stored; the Petitioners advised
that they would be able to store them in a warehouse.
• Commissioner V. Nespor asked if the windows were in such bad shape that they
could not be restored; the Petitioners responded in the affirmative. Commissioner
V. Walsh opined that even if some of the windows were mismatched, if they could
try to retain them as much as possible; the ramp is fine; and asked if replacing the
windows was a requirement of the new program. The Petitioners responded that
replacing the windows was not a requirement of the program.
• Commissioner V. Walsh recommended trying to keep the historic windows, if
possible, as well as ensure that the grids are not just attached to the windows. J.
Slater agreed to if the windows could be repurposed, they would try.
• Commissioner W. Kroll confirmed the model number of the window from the
submitted application.
• Commissioner V. Nespor made a motion to accept the application with the
stipulation that the windows be kept if possible and repurposed to the most visible
side of the building if possible, noting that the diamond grids are to be on the
exterior of the window.

• J. Lopez, Ovidia Lopez, and Rolando Meono were before the Commission to present
the application relating to the construction of a rear porch 47 Westminster Street.
Jose Claudio, from 100 Clayton Street, who was in attendance for another agenda
item, helped translate for the Petitioners.
• Chair A. Nardi provided an overview of the application. R. Meono informed the
Commission that after purchasing the building, they noticed an opening at the rear
of the building and thought they could place a deck at what appeared to be a rear
entry way at some point.
7|Page
• Commissioner V. Walsh asked if the Petitioners received a permit; the Petitioners
responded that they did not receive a permit. Commissioner V. Walsh opined that
he would be unable to vote in favor of the application as a hardship. The Petitioners
advised that the hardship was to demolish the porch.
• Commissioners V. Walsh and W. Kroll inquired as to whether the structure would
satisfy the building code, and opined that they would like acknowledgement from
the Building Department prior to making a decision on the application. The
Petitioners advised that the Building Department informed them that approval from
the Commission was required prior to the Building Permit being approved; if the
Historical Commission says it can stay, then the Building Department can issue the
permit.
• Commissioner V. Walsh reiterated that he could not vote on the application. Chair A.
Nardi opined that the railings were likely to low. Commissioner V. Walsh opined
that the Commission should not get into the details and asked if the structure was a
legal structure.
• Staff Member A. Strniste advised that he would ask the Building Department the
next day about the structure’s ability to obtain approval. Attorney R. Shewchuk

• Melissa Mirhej, Alan Vier, and Tim Dros were before the Commission to present the
application relating to replacing two windows, siding, and shingles pertaining to the
building at 82 Pineywoods Avenue.
• T. Dros advised that they were proposing to replace two windows due to extensive
water damage. Since they were planning to replace the entirety of the windows, the
rotted cedar shakes and shingles would be rebuilt back to its original design and
replicated. Tim Dros advised that they were passionate about historic properties
and will follow what was existing – putting everything back together as it originally
was.

• When opened to public comment, Harry Seymour from 82 Washington Road asked
what the replacement siding would be; T. Dros advised that it would be cedar.
• Commissioner W. Kroll made a motion to approve the application as presented. The

• Tracy Janik from 2 Belmont Avenue, South Hadley was before the Commission to
present the sign application relating to 262 Bridge Street.
• Staff Member A. Strniste informed the Commission that when he was reviewing the
application, he discovered that the City’s GIS resource selected the property at 266
Bridge Street when searching for “262 Bridge Street.” 266 Bridge Street is located in
the Trinity Block Local Historic District; however, the subject property – 262 Bridge
Street – is located directly adjacent to the Trinity Block Local Historic District
(outside of the District). Therefore, the property is not subject to Historical
Commission Review.
• Commissioner W. Kroll made a motion to find that the submitted application does
not require approval from the Historical Commission since the property is not
located in a Local Historic District, nor on the National Register of Historic Places.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner V. Nespor. With no discussion on the
motion, it was approved unanimously.

• Sarah and Dwight Bell, from 243 Wilbraham Road, were before the Commission to
discuss the already approved installation of a sign at 1402 Main Street.
• D. Bell informed the Commission that their business used to be at 5 Taylor Street;
the sign subject to the application was silver with black lettering, and was moved
from Taylor Street to Main Street. Commissioner V. Walsh confirmed that the sign
was the same sign from 5 Taylor Street.
9|Page
• D. Bell informed the Commission that they were thinking of painting the sign, as well
as illuminating the sign.
• Staff Member A. Strniste informed the Commission that the standard they are
reviewing the application was whether it caused an adverse impact to the building.
• D. Bell asked the Commission if he would be required to come back before the
Commission for façade improvements and installing an awning; the Commission
responded in the affirmative. D. Bell then asked for recommendations; however,
Chair. A Nardi informed him that the Commission cannot provide recommendations.
Commissioner W. Kroll informed D. Bell to contact Staff Member A. Strniste with
questions or examples with what has been approved in the past.
• D. Bell inquired as to who should address deteriorating brick issues; Commissioner
W. Kroll responded that since the deteriorating bricks related to the building, that
the responsibility was on the landowner. Commissioner V. Walsh reminded the
Commission that what can be discussed should really only relate to the application
itself – the sign. He then opined that he could not approve the sign as is if it were to
be permanent because he felt as if it does negatively impact the aesthetics of the
building.
• D. Bell asked if painting the sign black would help. Commissioner V. Walsh opined
that the way the sign was installed did not really fit with the building, but painting
would help. He then informed the Petitioners that he could vote to approve if the
sign was considered temporary. D. Bell then advised that he could place black
aluminum on the sides of the sign.
• Commissioner V. Nespor made a motion to accept the sign as temporary with the
understanding that the Petitioners would be returning to the Commission in the
future with other façade improvements. The approval is effective for up to one year.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Kroll. Commissioner V. Walsh clarified
that the Petitioners were going to be returning with façade details relating to a
submitted grant. The motion was approved unanimously.
XIV. OTHER MATTERS PROPERLY BEFORE THE COMMISSION – 207 PINE STREET PROJECT STATUS OVERVIEW
• Jose Claudio, a representative of the landowner for 207 Pine Street informed the
Commission about the status of the project at 207 Pine Street, which was approved
by the Commission in 2022. Specifically, J. Claudio went through the various
pictures submitted providing an in-depth overview. He also informed the
Commission that the landowner is cognizant in trying to revitalize the area having
bought neighboring property and making the building at 207 Pine Street historically
friendly.
• Staff Member A. Strniste provided the Commission an overview as to why the
landowner was asked to attend the Commission’s meeting. During a site visit along
Pine Street, Commissioners opined work was being performed that was not
necessarily approved.
• Chair A. Nardi confirmed with J. Claudio that the first-floor porch was the same, that
it was lifted up. Staff Member A. Strniste reviewed the certificates of approval and
compared them to what was completed; thus, the second-floor door, porch railings,
and steps all need approval from the Historical Commission. The porch requires a
Certificate of Non-Applicability since work has been conducted on the porch that
was not covered in the certificates.
10 | P a g e
• Commissioner W. Kroll informed J. Claudio that the reason the Commission likes to
follow-up with Petitioners after long stints of time is because sometimes what was
approved was forgotten.
• Chair A. Nardi confirmed with J. Claudio that the landowner would be returning,
especially with regards to the second-floor door.
• J. Claudio asked if the Stop-Work Order could be lifted. Staff Member A. Strniste
advised the Building Department must have issued a Stop-Work Order and that he
would speak to the Building Department the next day and let them known that the
Historical Commission is okay lifting the order. J. Claudio advised that they would
be back before the Commissioner in December.
XV. OTHER MATTERS PROPERLY BEFORE THE COMMISSION – ADMINISTRATIVE UPDATE
• Staff Member A. Strniste provided the Commission an overview of various updates:
o The project manager for the project at 32 Hampden Street inquired as to
what color they should paint the metal atop the parapet, which is being
replaced, and whether it needs approval from the Commission. The
Commission advised that they should try to match the color to what
currently exists, and should it change, they should come before the
Commission.
o Staff Member A. Strniste issued the following Certificates of Non-
Applicability since the last meeting:
301 Longhill Street Repaint Front Façade.
1104 Worthington Street Fixing/Repairing Black Metal Fence

XVI. OTHER MATTERS PROPERLY BEFORE THE COMMISSION – NOVEMBER 20, 2025 QUORUM CALL

Re: 102 Thompson St
Dear Commissioners
This house has undergone significant changes by the owner of record who is Ziyad Jarod. He
purchased property 11/30/23. He was sent a letter telling him it was in a Historic District.
(attached) The realtor who had listed the property was told of the Historic District rules in letter
of 7/21/23 (attached)
Google Street View of June 2024 shows that changes had not been made. Assessors records say
property was a “transfer of convenience” to Zaitoun Munir on 3/19/24. Registry of deeds does
not record this transfer so owner is legally Ziyad Jarod. Changes were made after this “transfer”
The change of the front porch railings on first and second floor are totally inappropriate to the
house, The change to the door on the second floor is improper and neither were done with
permission of the Commission. The decorative shingles on the second floor porch were covered
with asphalt shingles, again not approved. Asphalt should be removed and shingles restored.
These four changes must be restored back to the way they were when purchased and are
original to the house. Porch railings can be same height as originals as it is in Hisotric District.
Leaving these changes as they are is a detriment to the District and counter to all of its rules.
These changes were reported to the Commission October 19, 2024.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Dear Becky
Re: Listing at 102 Thompson St Springfield
Congratulations on your listing in the McKnight Historic District in Springfield Ma. This is a wonderful
neighborhood where everyone takes great pride in their properties. I think you will find a lot of interest
in the property.
As the house is in a Local Historic District, it is subject to the rules set forth by the City and administered
by the Springfield Historical Commission. This means any work done to the exterior, including windows
and doors porches, must have the approval of the Historical Commission.
As this house is priced in a way that will attract Flippers, it is especially important that they understand
rules of the Hisotric District.
As this is a benefit to the property it is also a restriction and thus must be disclosed to all potential
buyers.
In full disclose of property restrictions, your listing should disclose this so that all potential buyers are
informed. By having this in your listing, all Realtors showing the property are duly informed also.
The rules of the McKnight Historic District can be found on the City o `+f Springfield’s Planning
Department website. Microsoft Word - MCKNIGHT-rev_Dec_07.doc (springfield-ma.gov) Map of the

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Project Description
The project involves the installation of a 400 Watt 12 Volt Premium Solar Panel Kit on a
single-car garage located at 79 Thompson Street, Springfield, Massachusetts 01109. The
system will provide off-grid solar power to the garage to operate limited electrical loads,
including lighting, outlets, and a diesel air heater.
System Details:
• Solar Panels: 4 pieces of 100W high-efficiency monocrystalline solar panels (total
400W), framed in aluminum alloy with tempered glass for durability.
• Charge Controller: 40A MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) controller with 99%
tracking efficiency and 98% peak conversion efficiency.
• Monitoring: Bluetooth 5.0 monitoring module (BT-02) allowing mobile phone
connectivity up to 82 feet for real-time system performance data.
• Mounting Hardware: ECO-WORTHY Z Brackets for secure roof attachment of solar
panels.
• Wiring & Protection: Pre-installed waterproof IP-65 junction boxes, bypass diodes, 35-
inch cables, and Y-branch connectors for efficient wiring and protection against shading
losses.
• System Output: Approximate daily production of 1.6 kWh (depending on sunlight
availability).
Intended Use:
The installed solar system will supply off-grid power to the garage, which will include:
• Two (2) ceiling-mounted 3-foot fluorescent light fixtures.
• One (1) VEVOR Air Heater, 12V, 5KW, with remote control, LCD, and 5L fuel tank.
• Four (4) standard 120V wall outlets for light electrical use.
Scope of Work:
1
• Assessing garage roof for solar panel installation.
• Mounting solar panels using the provided Z brackets.
• Installing the MPPT charge controller, Bluetooth monitoring module, and required
wiring.
• Configuring the system to charge storage batteries and distribute power to lighting,
heater, and outlets.
• Testing and commissioning the system to ensure safe and efficient operation.
This project will provide a reliable off-grid solar power source for the garage, ensuring energy
independence for basic lighting, heating, and limited electrical use.

JUSTIFICATION FOR CERTIFICATE OF
HARDSHIP FOR SOLAR PANEL INSTALATION
ON MY GARAGE
Paul Jones
79 Thompson Street
Springfield, MA 01109 September 20, 2025
Springfield Historical Commission
36 Court Street, Room 413
Springfield, MA 01103
Re: Request for Certificate of Hardship – Solar Panel Installation on Garage at 79
Thompson Street
Dear Members of the Springfield Historical Commission:
I respectfully submit this request for a Certificate of Hardship to permit the installation of a
solar photovoltaic (PV) system on the roof of my detached single-car garage at 79 Thompson
Street, Springfield, MA 01109.
Basis for Hardship
My household is entirely dependent on electricity for essential services, including:
• Electric stove for cooking,
• Electric water heater,
• Electric baseboard heating,
• Electric washer and dryer, and
• Electric window air conditioning units during the summer months.
As a result, my monthly electric bills routinely exceed $500.00, which poses a significant and
ongoing financial burden.
The proposed installation of a 400 Watt 12 Volt Premium Solar Panel Kit on the garage roof
will allow me to reduce this financial hardship by generating renewable energy on-site to my
1
garage. My garage serves as the first step in transitioning my property to solar energy, as it is less
visible than the main structure, has minimal impact on the historic character of the property, and
can be utilized immediately to offset high electricity costs.
Intended Use of the Garage Solar System
The garage is not only used for parking but also serves as a functional workshop where I
regularly perform maintenance on my own car. During the winter months, this requires reliable
power for:
• Two fluorescent overhead lights for visibility,
• Small power tools and chargers, and
• A VEVOR Air Heater (12V, 5KW) to maintain a safe working temperature.
Without solar, these activities directly increase my already excessive electric bills. Installing
solar panels on the garage will allow me to reduce my reliance on grid electricity while making
necessary and safe use of my garage year-round without have to take my car to an auto service
facility like pep boys that can charge me upwards of $600 to change my breaks where I can
change it myself for just the cost of parts (under $100). My garage is only used for self-purposes
maintenance to my vehicle
Minimal Impact on Historic Character
The proposed installation will have little to no impact on the historic qualities of the property:
• The panels will be installed on the roof of a detached garage, not the primary residence,
reducing their visibility from the public way.
• The installation is fully reversible panels can be removed in the future without causing
permanent alteration to the garage structure.
• The proposed solar kit is compact and mounted with low-profile brackets, blending with
the roofline as much as possible.
2
Public Policy Considerations
Additionally, this installation supports broader public interests:
• It aligns with Massachusetts’ statewide goals to increase renewable energy use and
reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
• It reduces the strain on the public utility grid during high-demand seasons.
• It demonstrates environmentally responsible homeownership while maintaining the
integrity of the neighborhood’s character.
Conclusion
For these reasons, I respectfully request that the Commission grant a Certificate of Hardship to
permit the installation of solar panels on the roof of my detached garage. Denial of this request
would perpetuate a severe and ongoing financial burden due to my reliance on electricity for
every essential household service, while approval will allow me to begin transitioning to
renewable energy in a manner that is minimally invasive and fully reversible.
Thank you for your consideration. I am happy to provide additional information, system
specifications, or photographs of the proposed installation site if requested.
Respectfully submitted,
Paul Jones

Re: 47 Westminster St Rear Deck
Dear Commissioners
There has been a large back stair way going to the second floor of this Single Family Home in the
Historic District. This was done without review of the Commission and I assume without a
Building Permit.
Owner was notified about District rules when they purchased house. (attached)
This type of stairway would suggest a second floor apartment access.
This stairway is very visible from the street and not in keeping with any guideline in the District.
Materials and design not appropriate. Change is needed.
Thank you

Re: Listing at 47 Westminster St McKnight Historic District.
Congratulations on your listing in the McKnight Historic District in Springfield Ma. This is a wonderful
neighborhood where everyone takes great pride in their properties. I think you will find a lot of interest
in the property.
As the house is in a Local Historic District, it is subject to the rules set forth by the City and administered
by the Springfield Historical Commission. This means any work done to the exterior, including windows
and doors, must have the approval of the Historical Commission.
I have enclosed pictures of the house in 1939 and 1975. You can see what a beautiful house it was. I
imagine much of the porch detail is underneath that awful enclosed porch. Your buyers would enhance
the value of the house by restoring the front porch. The rest of your street is very well restored.
As this is a benefit to the property it is also a restriction and thus must be disclosed to all potential
buyers.
In full disclose of property restrictions, your listing should disclose this so that all potential buyers are
informed. By having this in your listing, all Realtors showing the property are duly informed also.
The rules of the McKnight Historic District can be found on the City Of Springfield’s Planning Department
website. Microsoft Word - MCKNIGHT-rev_Dec_07.doc (springfield-ma.gov) Map of the Local Historic
District ArcView Print Job (springfield-ma.gov)
The house was built in 1876 and the first owner was W S Buxton, built in the Gothic Revival Style. This
street was one of the first built by the McKnight Brothers.
Thank you for your work in promoting this wonderful neighborhood.

you can see a picture of your home in 1939, go to Resources and
WPA photos and Westminster St
Your home was built in 1876 in the Gothic Revival style. The first
owner was W S Buxton. This was one of the first houses built by the
McKnight Brothers who developed the whole neighborhood.
Your wonderful house is located in the McKnight Historic District
and all work to the house visible from the street must be approved by
the Springfield Historical Commission. I have included in this
packet those guidelines.
You have wonderful neighbors all around you, hope you enjoy
McKnight.

Dear Ovidia Catalina Lopez-Macario:
The Springfield Historical Commission has recently become aware of the unauthorized construction of a
rear stairway onto the rear of the building on your property at 47 Westminster Street. Your property is
located within the McKnight Local Historic District, and any proposed work relating to the exterior of the
building is not allowed without the approval of the Commission. Once the Commission has granted
approval, any exterior modifications and renovations can be completed after getting any other necessary
building permits.
Enclosed is a copy of the McKnight Local Historic District guidelines and an application. Please fill out
the application completely, attaching the appropriate information (pictures, sample materials, site map, etc.)
and return all materials to the address below. The next available Springfield Historical Commission
meeting is Thursday, June 26, 2025 at 5:30pm, and the application needs to be submitted two weeks in
advance of the meeting (by June 11, 2025 at 4:30pm). If you cannot make this meeting, please contact me
for future meeting dates. However, your work cannot continue until you receive the approval from the
Commission.
If you do not comply, the Commission will be forced to take further action. In addition, the Building
Department has been notified of the work that is occurring to determine ifpermitting is required on their
end
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (413) 787-6525.

WINDOWS
✔ Check box indicating that you are submitting an order sheet with renderings/brochure of the proposed windows.
✔ Check box indicating that you are submitting photographs of the existing windows.
✔ Check box indicating that you are aware of the City’s Window Guidelines (click here).
Will the Dimensions of the Windows Change: ✔ Yes (Please Provide Details Below Under Additional Information) No
PLEASE PROVIDE DETAILS ABOUT THE CONDITIONS OF THE CURRENT WINDOWS:
The existing windows appear to be extremely old and consist of single pane glass. These are not insulated windows,
and have extreme signs of weathering. Most windows have developed gaps that previous owners have attempted to fill
with caulking to attempt to seal drafts. Most windows do not open, many have weight ropes ripped or missing. Many
window sills have rotted wood at the bottom. Some windows do not have storm windows. Several windows are missing
entire sashes leaving rooms completely open to the elements. Some sashes have cracked glass also. Some windows
are missing parts of locking mechanisms. Stained glass window has sagged and few pieces of glass are missing letting
rain water through which has caused wood rot at the bottom of the window including the wall.
PLEASE PROVIDE THE REASON FOR WANTING TO REPLACE THE WINDOWS:
Considering the existing conditions of the windows and great difficulty in rebuilding existing windows as well as tremendous cost and
time to restore such windows, which would remain single pane windows, we wish to propose to upgrade the home with brand new
replacement windows. In addition, the cost of heating would create an ongoing financial hardship for us also due to the original windows
lacking the modern energy efficiency of new windows. Beautiful new windows will not only make the exterior of the home look better but
also provide the comfort and safety for occupants, since the windows will open smoothly, and tempered glass will be installed in
bathrooms and staircase as required by code.
The proposed window will be Tan in color to nicely fit the historical color scheme as well as the trim color on the house, while window
vinyl material being tan throughout, instead of painted, will ensure lasting longevity of the color for decades to come.
NUMBER OF WINDOWS TO BE REPLACED/ADDED: 33
NEW WINDOW MANUFACTURER: Simonton 5500 Reflections
MODEL NUMBER(S): 5500
EXISTING PROPOSED
MATERIAL (e.g. wood, vinyl, aluminum, etc): wood tan vinyl
EXTERNAL COLOR(S) (e.g. black, white, etc): green, tan, some unpainted wood tan
GRID PLACEMENT (Interior or Exterior): no grids, one over one same as existing
GRID PATTERN (e.g. two-over-two; six-over-one, etc): none
none
WINDOW STYLE(S) (e.g. double-hung, etc): double hung double hung
GLASS TYPE(S) (e.g. single-pane, double-pane, etc): single pane double pane
ADDITIONAL INFOMRATION:
All windows will remain the same size, keeping all original trim inside and outside. Windows are replacement windows style.
NOTE: 2nd floor bathtub surround currently has a large, full size window in the shower. Due to the location being exposed to water
and prone to rot and leaks and mold, we are proposing installing a smaller stationary/picture window up higher so direct water spray
doesn't affect it. Window width will remain the same to minimize exterior siding repair. Window height to be reduced to 12-18 inches.
Siding and trim around the window will be repaired to match the rest of the windows. Same kind of material, same pattern, same style
will be matched for seamless repair.

PLEASE PROVIDE THE REASON FOR WANTING TO REPLACE THE SIDING:
ADDITIONAL INFOMRATION:
This page is to note a small siding patch/repair if the window size will be approved to replace full size
window in the 2nd floor bathroom bathtub surround window with a smaller stationary window that
will be installed higher up so the water doesn't spray onto it and cause rot damage and mold. If
approved, siding will be repaired to seamlessly tie in and match existing siding. This is a repair of
siding and trim.

RE: Springfield Riverfront Park Renovations
Springfield, Hampden, Massachusetts
Initiation of Section 106 Consultation
Dear Ms. Simon:
The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) is providing financial assistance through an annual grant to the
National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) for the proposed Springfield Riverfront Park Renovations
(Project). The Project is located on Hall of Fame Avenue in Springfield, Massachusetts, just northwest of the
South Springfield Railroad Station (Attachment 1). The Project is an undertaking subject to Section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended, and its implementing regulations 36 CFR Part 800
(Section 106). FRA previously authorized Amtrak to initiate and conduct certain Section 106 consultations in
your state pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(c)(4). On behalf of FRA, Amtrak is providing this letter to initiate Section
106 consultation and provide an opportunity to comment.
Amtrak is providing the Project Notification Form required by your office together with this package.
Project Background
Amtrak is providing the City of Springfield with a grant to reconstruct the existing parking area and install a
new ADA Complaint pathway from the parking area to the entrance of Riverfront Park. The cause of this was
Amtrak's decision to remove the at-grade crossing located to the south of the parking area. Amtrak is supplying
the funds, but the project is being administered and overseen by the City. The property is owned by the City, the
project will not be impacting any Amtrak owned property.
Project Description
The purpose of this project is to create an ADA compliant accessible path from the parking area to the entrance
to Riverfront Park to replace the existing at-grade rail crossing which is being decommissioned and removed by
Amtrak (Attachment 2). The project will include the resurfacing of the existing parking area, development of a
communal space in the parking area, and installation of an ADA complaint concrete ramp from the existing
sidewalk on Hall of Fame Ave to the Riverfront Park entrance. Upgrades to existing guardrail sections,
plantings and landscaping will also be included as part of the project.
Area of Potential Effects
The area of potential effects (APE), as defined in 36 CFR § 800.16(d), is “the geographic area or areas within
which an undertaking may directly or indirectly cause alterations in the character or use of historic properties, if
Springfield Riverfront Park Renovations
Page 2 of 3
any such properties exist.” Amtrak, on behalf of FRA, delineated the APE to reflect the nature, scale, and
location of the Project (Attachment 3) and considered direct effects and indirect effects. Physical effects are
limited to the Limits of Disturbance (LOD), which includes all areas where construction activities are proposed
to occur as well as areas used to support construction such as temporary access routes and equipment staging
areas.
The APE is an approximately 1.15-acre sub-rectangular parcel of land consisting of a small parking lot,
side street, and landscaped lawns. The Connecticut River and CSX Transportation Railroad run north-
south to the southwest of the APE. Hall of Fame Avenue and Interstate Highway I-91 parallel the river’s
course to the northeast of the parcel. Riverfront Park, opened in 1977, occupies the eastern riverbank and
abuts the west side of the APE. Another parking lot abuts the north of the parcel, and the Springfield
Police Station lies to its south. Interstate Highway I-91 separates the APE from Springfield’s highly
urbanized metro center.
Identification of Historic Properties
To identify historic properties in the APE, SWCA staff, who meet the Secretary of the Interior’s (SOI)
Professional Qualifications Standards, reviewed available information, including the National Register of
Historic Places (NRHP) listings; SHPO files, available historic maps and images e.g., Sanborn fire insurance
maps, historic aerials, and historic topographic quadrangles.
Assessment of Effects
In accordance with 36 CFR Part 800.4(d)(1), on behalf of FRA, Amtrak determined that there are no historic
properties present within the APE for this undertaking (Attachment 4).
Consulting Party Outreach
Amtrak identified parties that may be interested in the Project and Amtrak’s determination of effects. On behalf of
FRA, Amtrak invites the individuals/organizations copied on this letter to participate as Section 106 consulting parties.
Invited parties should indicate their willingness to participate as a consulting party and provide comments, as
indicated below, within 30 calendar days from the date on this letter. If any invited party expresses concern
about the Project’s potential effects to historic properties, Amtrak will consult with you and other consulting
parties to resolve those concerns prior to project implementation. For more information on the role of a
consulting party, see: https://www.achp.gov/citizens-guide-section-106-review.
FRA invited federally recognized Indian tribes (Attachment 5) to participate in consultation by separate
correspondence.
Finding of Effect
On behalf of FRA, Amtrak finds that there will be No Historic Properties Affected by the undertaking
pursuant to 36 CFR Part 800.4(d)(1).
Request for Comment
Please provide any comments on the Project to Zachary Nason at zachary.nason@swca.com and
Amtrak_S106_Submissions@dot.gov within 30 calendar days from receipt of this letter. Hardcopy
responses can be mailed to 15 Research Dr. Amherst, Massachusetts 01002. If you have questions or wish

APE Land Use History
This area of Springfield has been developed for urban and industrial uses since at least 1835
(Colton Map 1835). Historically, the APE would have been situated between State Street in the
south, Elm Street in the north, the Springfield, Hartford, and New Haven Railroad to the west,
and Water Street to the west (Sanborn Map Company 1886). The block was occupied by the
Springfield Gas Company according to the Smith 1851 map and the Beers 1870 map. The Smith
1851 map also shows an old cemetery occupying three city blocks along the bank of the river,
from Court Street to State Street. The “Old Cemetery,” as it is labeled, overlaps with the APE but
was already disturbed and/or destroyed by 1851. Neither the 1835 map nor the 1886 maps
(Sanborn Map Company 1886; USGS 1886) reference this cemetery. Sandborn fire insurance
maps from the turn on the nineteenth century show that this city block was primarily an
industrial yard associated with the railroad; brick structures housed coal, iron, and gas, and
wooden sheds occupied the interior courtyard spaces (Sanborn Map Company 1886, 1896,
1911). Historic aerials show large warehouse-like structures in 1957 and 1958 which were
demolished for the construction of Interstate Highway 91, completed in 1970 (Milone &
Macbroom 2018). The APE has remained more-or-less unchanged since the construction of the
interstate.
