On the agenda for the Historic Preservation Commission: whether to approve a garden shed

The Historic Preservation Commission plays an important role in the Bull City: It reviews proposed changes to landmarks and properties in historic districts to make sure they are “appropriate” for the surrounding area.

Property owners must apply for a “Certificate of Appropriateness” and then go before the commission to plead their case.

Recently, Caleb Millikin and Erin Voichoski, the owners of the home at 707 Yancey Street, applied for a certificate becauese they were seeking “New construction of Accessory Structure” … a garden shed.

Our reporter Sophie Endrud was there when Milliken was called to testify. This is the story of Milliken’s shed and how the commission works.
