Historic District Commission August 1, 2018 Michael and Leigh Anne Lauer 1221 Oakwood Avenue Gastonia, NC 28052 HD Project # 9076 Dear Mr. & Mrs. Lauer, This correspondence is in reference to your property located at 1221 Oakwood Avenue,
Gastonia, NC 28052. Your property resides in the Brookwood Historic District and is governed
by the City of Gastonia’s Unified Development Ordinance (Section 7.6.2 HD Historic District
Overlay), which requires any exterior alteration to a property in the district to first be approved
through the issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) before such work is initiated and
completed.
You had submitted an application for a COA for the removal of two trees and I appreciate that
the intent of the removal was thoughtful, after experiencing property damage and being informed
that you had diseased trees that needed addressing. However, as the removal of the trees was
done before obtaining an approved COA, we require replacement of the two trees with two
canopy trees. Gastonia’s UDO states that in the event that a tree is removed without
authorization in the HD district, such tree shall be replaced by another tree of a size…no smaller
than two (2) inches in diameter measured four (4) inches from grade (Section 7.6.2 HD Historic
District Overlay).
Our conversation today included your intention to obtain a landscaping plan for your property
which will include these two canopy trees -the species and placement is up to you and your
landscape designer.
Please feel free to contact me for additional information at (704) 854-6605 or by email at
