Certificate of Appropriateness to install eight (8) 5-foot-wide by

the east and west team rooms at the Cotton Bowl Stadium (i.e., signage).  
Applicant Jason Hays  
Application Filed 4/27/2026  
Staff Recommendation  
That the request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to install eight (8)  
5-foot-wide by 9-foot-high SEG “Snap” frame systems on the south-facing  
exterior walls of the east and west team rooms at the Cotton Bowl Stadium  
(i.e., signage) be approved as submitted in accordance with drawings and  
specifications dated April 27, 2026. The proposed work is located within the  
Rehabilitation Zone, specifically the Cotton Bowl Subdistrict, where  
preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, and reconstruction are the preferred  
treatments, and alterations or additions may be permitted when compatible  
with the character of the subdistrict and when they do not diminish historic  
features (Section 5; Cotton Bowl Subdistrict criteria, especially 5.3). The  
installation of wall-mounted SEG frame systems does not affect any  
protected historic materials, architectural elements, or artwork, and the  
proposed work is reversible and limited to non-character-defining facades  
within the stadium complex. The work is compatible with the character of the  
Cotton Bowl Subdistrict and maintains the historic axial relationships and  
protected views described in Section 5.3. The proposed work is consistent  
with the following preservation criteria Section 5.3 under Cotton Bowl  
Subdistrict and Section 9.4 (permitted signage systems that do not obscure  
or damage historic features); meets the standards in City Code Section  
51-4.501(g)(6)(C)(i) for contributing structures; and the Secretary of the  
Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.  
Task Force Recommendation  
That the request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to install eight (8)  
5-foot-wide by 9-foot-high SEG “Snap” frame systems on the south-facing  
exterior walls of the east and west team rooms at the Cotton Bowl Stadium  
(i.e., signage) be approved as submitted.

have an adverse effect on the district and is, therefore, consistent with  
preservation criteria Sec. 51P-97.111(c)(S)(i); meets the standards in City  
Code Section 51-4.501(g)(6)(C)(ii) for noncontributing structures; and the

accordance with drawings and specifications dated 6/1/2026 with the

comments:  
-
Comments only. Supportive, with the following  
1- 18” minimum height from finished grade for porch foundation  
2- Minimum 24” wide soffit, 8-12” fascia, 12” freize board  
3- Windows must be wood on wood; no cladding, no internal mullions, and  
no more than 3 different sizes on the entire structure  
4- No hardi-board; recommend one brick color rather than two  
5- Gang windows with a minimum 4 ½-6” trim board in between windows  
6- Hip roof on garage overhang  
7- Solid-to-void ratio needs improvement. We recommended adding and  
ganging windows on the front façade and on the right and left side  
facades. The size of windows should be more consistent and of an  
appropriate size for the structure  
8- Porch should be at least 12” deep, which would improve the slope on the  
front porch roof, bringing the top of it to the bottom of the second-floor  
windows  
9- Porch columns should be brick to one-third of the height and tapered  
wooden columns on top 2/3  
10- Brick columns flanking the fence is unusual, but we recommend that  
columns be added at the corners and at the front façade of the structure  
11-Must provide a site plan which includes adjacent properties on the block  
face to evaluate setback.

Request  
A Certificate of Appropriateness to cover existing masonry coping on main  
building with metal coping at top of parapet - color to match that of existing  
masonry coping.  
Applicant Ryan Mitchell  
Application Filed 5/12/2026  
Staff Recommendation  
That the request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to cover existing  
masonry coping on main building with metal coping at top of parapet - color  
to match that of existing masonry coping be denied without prejudice.  
The proposed work would introduce a non-historic metal material onto a  
character-defining parapet condition, resulting in an alteration that is  
inconsistent with the required façade appearance and historic material  
character of contributing warehouse-era buildings. The work would  
adversely affect the historic architectural integrity of the structure and is,  
therefore, inappropriate. The proposed work is not consistent with  
preservation criteria Section 5.2 pertaining to façade materials and Section  
5.7 pertaining to façade appearance; the standards in City Code Section  
51A-4.501(g)(6)(C)(i) for contributing structures; and the Secretary of the  
Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.  
Task Force Recommendation  
That the request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to cover existing  
masonry coping on main building with metal coping at top of parapet - color  
to match that of existing masonry coping be denied without prejudice.

Application Filed 4/14/2026  
Staff Recommendation  
That the request to replace the existing fence and install a new six-foot-tall  
wood board-on-board fence in the front yard be denied without prejudice,  
with a finding of fact that fences in front yards are prohibited in Junius  
Heights Historic District and would, therefore, have an adverse effect on the  
district. The proposed work is, therefore, not consistent with preservation  
criteria Section 3.6(a)(1), the standards in City Code Section 51-4.501(g)(6)  
(C)(i) for contributing structures, or the Secretary of the Interiors Standards  
for Setting (Neighborhood/District).

That the request to replace the front door was denied without prejudice,  
with findings of fact that the existing door is appropriate, if not original, and  
does not show adequate evidence of deterioration to warrant replacement.  
The proposed work would have an adverse effect on the historic structure

That the request to install a new three and a half (3.5) foot white wood picket

of the recommended conditions would allow the proposed work to be
