C. SOLAR COLLECTORS
i. Location-Locate solar collectors on side or rear roof pitch of the primary historic structure to the maximum extent feasible to minimize visibility from the public right-of-way while maximizing solar access. Alternatively, locate solar collectors on a garage or outbuilding or consider a ground-mount system where solar access to the primary structure is limited.
ii. Mounting (sloped roof surfaces)-Mount solar collectors flush with the surface of a sloped roof. Select collectors that are similar in color to the roof surface to reduce visibility.
iii. Mounting (flat roof surfaces)-Mount solar collectors flush with the surface of a flat roof to the maximum extent feasible. Where solar access limitations preclude a flush mount, locate panels towards the rear of the roof where visibility from the public right-of-way will be minimized.
Background and Interpretation
The primary structure located at 534 Mission St is a 1-story single family home constructed circa 1928 in the Craftsman Bungalow style. The home features a primary side gable roof with a front dormer, a prominent full-width front porch, multi-lite wood windows, and battered columns. The structure is contributing to the King William Historic District. The property also features a non-contributing, 1-story rear accessory structure, constructed in the 1980s. The property is located at the intersection of Mission St and Barbe St.
