The commission approved exterior changes for three homes, all with design conditions meant to keep the additions compatible with the existing houses. At 8109 Laramie Ave., it backed a 450-square-foot second-floor addition, while suggesting extra brick detailing to break up a large wall area. At 8049 Kilbourn Ave., it approved turning an attached garage into living space and adding a detached rear garage, and at 7656 Crawford Ave. it approved revised addition plans with requirements for more cohesive materials and a larger stoop. A public commenter also asked the commission to take on property standards concerns, but staff said he would be contacted by the appropriate Village staff members.
