Reroof single-family dwelling with a metal roof (B)
Petition HP-21-4. Kim Popejoy, owner. Certificate of Appropriateness to reroof an existing single-family dwelling with a metal roof. Located at 300 NE 13th Avenue. This building is a non-contributing structure to the Northeast Residential Historic District.

Panels will be fastened to the purlins with metal roofing screws and all flashings will be installed over the eave, gable, ridge, valley, chimney stack, vent, and pipe boots. The proposed roofing is Galvalume in color and is manufactured by Tri-County Metals.
