18 274 Chapter Overview of Types of Historic Resource Edge Treatments HISTORIC RESOURCES Franklin Zoning Ordinance Effective January 1, 2023 18.2 Overview of Types of Historic Resource Edge Treatments Historic Resource Edge Treatment Illustration Naturalistic Screening: Naturalistic screening creates a year-round visual obstruction and significant spatial separation between the historic resource setting and the new development or redevelopment. The historic resource, its setting, and surrounding site features are preserved. The naturalistic screening edge treatment provides an opaque screen of evergreen trees mixed with existing vegetation along the common boundaries of the historic resource site and the site of the new development or redevelopment. Farm-Field Boundary: The farm-field boundary replicates the treelined property boundaries historically prevalent throughout the County, which generally evolved as leftover vegetation that grew along the borders of agricultural fields. This is accomplished by providing a historically based fence or wall and deciduous and cedar trees planted linearly along common boundary between the historic resource and the development or redevelopment. The historic resource, its setting, and surrounding site features are preserved. The farm-field boundary provides modest separation between the development or redevelopment and the historic resource. Because buildings within the development or redevelopment remain in view of the historic resource, they are designed to be similar in scale and architectural character with the historic building. Estate Enclosure: This treatment preserves the historic resource, surrounding site features, and the setting while providing an estate enclosure at the edge. The estate enclosure provides moderate spatial separation between the development or redevelopment and the historic resource, and consists of formal plantings. Integrated Edge: The integrated edge incorporates the historic resource into the overall design of the development or redevelopment, with the historic building being a prominent focal point, appearing as if the balance of the site evolved around it. Corridor Context: This edge treatment preserves the setting of the historic resource along a scenic corridor in the SCO where development is proposed across a street from and within view of a historic building.
