Please take care when clicking links or opening attachments. When in doubt, contact IT. Hello, Julia! The exact make and models have not been finalized, as naturally no materials have been ordered prior to this application being approved by the DRB. However, please find the attached preliminary specifications for the proposed intent; this includes a Bilco StakWEL Modular well system in a beige color to match the existing stone building foundations, and an Anderson 400 Series CW135 Casement Window in white to match the existing window trim of the residence. The CW135 model in particular is likely to be the final product used, as this matches the width of the existing basement windows which are to be replaced with the egress windows. The exact make and model of the well is subject to change based on availability at the time of construction, but will remain otherwise identical in proposed size and color. As this is indeed in the historic review district, the intent is of course to minimize the impact of these changes and preserve the appearance of the original residence, matching existing material colors wherever relevant. I hope this provides the information you need! Thank you, and please advise if you require anything further from us.

Please send me materials specs for the windows you are going to be installing - brand, model, materials, color as well as for the well itself. Please let me know, and remember this is in a historic district.

Please take care when clicking links or opening attachments. When in doubt, contact IT. Hello! This Ember DeMio with Nolan Engineering, following up on my earlier phone call. As mentioned, please find the attached Design Review Board application regarding the project we’re working on for 99 Division St, on behalf of the owner Nick Argenti (copied here). The attached includes the filled and signed application as well as relevant supplemental materials, which we’re hoping to bring before the DRB at the next meeting on February 11th. The project is relatively straightforward with no major exterior alterations planned, just the replacement of two existing basement windows with egress-compliant openings and the installations of associated egress wells, for a basement finishing project. As discussed, we’ll deliver a physical hard-copy of the attached alongside a check for the associated fees; from my review of the fee schedule, the relevant value (DRB, 1+2 Family Residential Structure, Façade Alteration) is $150, made payable to the Saratoga Commissioner of Finance – can you confirm if that is correct? In the interest of ensuring our place on the agenda we’ll get that and the hard-copy delivered swiftly to your offices, but please advise if there are any relevant deadlines to be aware of. 2/4/26, 2:26 PM Mail - Julia Destino - Outlook https://outlook.office365.com/mail/id/AAkALgAAAAAAHYQDEapmEc2byACqAC%2FEWg0AxlDIuR%2FRMEO89B%2FMS6nl%2BQABoeV59wAA 2/3 Thanks, Ember DeMio Architectural Drafter Nolan Engineering 2/4/26, 2:26 PM Mail - Julia Destino - Outlook https://outlook.office365.com/mail/id/AAkALgAAAAAAHYQDEapmEc2byACqAC%2FEWg0AxlDIuR%2FRMEO89B%2FMS6nl%2BQABoeV59wAA 3/3 9800.854.9724 • email: residential@BILCO.com StakWEL® Modular Window Well System Features: Modular system provides corrosion resistant performance at “steel-like” prices. High-density polyethylene molded construction will never rust, rot or change color and is UV-stabilized for long life. Unique “Grip/Step” design features convenient handle and gusseted step to meet emergency egress requirements. Neutral driftwood color and pebbled interior finish will complement the interior of any home. Overlapping ribs and tabbed inserts lock module together to form a cohesive assembly. Modular system can be used on foundations of ten foot and greater in depth. Single modules work well with utility windows Modules can be stacked to accommodate virtually any foundation height 10 Visit BILCO.com to find a sales representative near you Window Well Dome Cover Option Limits the accumulation of snow, leaves and debris. Constructed of polycarbonate, this high impact cover is UV-resistant and designed for durability and long life. Note: For applications with a casement window, the well must be installed so that it is above the top of the window for a dome cover to be utilized. ScapeWEL® Dome Cover StakWEL® Dome Cover Building Line Window well side panels must extend 4” above grade level. Grade must be sloped away from well. Downspouts must also be directed away from the well. Use ¾” clean free-draining rock or A6 stone at least 12” in width around all sides of the well. Fill to depth of foundation footing. *Wells can be installed lower than the recommended 3 ½” to help meet grade conditions. Tie rock fill into perimeter drain if available. Window Dimension A Measure from bottom of window sill to grade level. *3 ½” 44” Maximum from floor to window sill to met egress code requirements. WindowWellSystem Distance from the outside of the foundation wall to the inside face of the first step: ScapeWEL = 30” StakWEL = 33¼” (37 ¼” to the inside wall) Selecting the Proper Size Step 1: Measure or calculate dimension A as shown in the detail on the right based on the site’s grade conditions and foundation height. Step 2: Determine the required window well side panel height by performing this simple calculation: Required Side Panel Height = Dimension A + 7 ½” From the table below, select the closest height that will meet the site conditions. Step 3: Once the side panel height has been determined, read across and select the desired window width. With the window size selected, read across to select the proper window well and cover. Note: Both StakWEL® and ScapeWEL® models satisfy building code requirements for emergency egress. Standard Sizes and Model Numbers X - Not Available. *Extensions are only available for 3-tier window well models.

Dimensions in parentheses are in millimeters. Printing limitations prevent exact replication of colors and finishes. See your Andersen supplier for actual color and finish samples. Naturally occurring variations in grain, color and texture of wood make each window one of a kind. All wood interiors are unfinished unless a finish is specified. Distressed bronze and oil rubbed bronze are “living” finishes that will change with time and use. FRAME A A seamless one-piece, rigid vinyl frame cover is secured to the exterior of the frame to protect the wood frame from moisture and maintain an attractive appearance while minimizing maintenance. B The seamless rigid vinyl cover extends 1 3 ⁄8" (35) around the perimeter of the unit, creating a flange to help seal the unit to the structure. C Wood frame members are treated with a water-repellent preservative for long-lasting* protection and performance. D Interior stops are unfinished pine. Low-maintenance prefinished white, dark bronze and black** interiors are also available. SASH E Rigid vinyl encases the entire sash – a vinyl weld protects each sash corner for superior weathertightness. It maintains an attractive appearance and minimizes maintenance. F Wood core members provide excellent structural stability and energy efficiency. G Vinyl closed-cell foam weatherstrip is factory installed on the perimeter of the sash. GLASS H In addition to stainless steel glass spacers, black or white glass spacers are now available to allow the spacer to blend in with the unit color. I A glazing bead and silicone provide superior weathertightness and durability. J High-Performance options include: • Low-E4® glass • Low-E4 HeatLock® glass • Low-E4 SmartSun™ glass • Low-E4 SmartSun HeatLock glass • Low-E4 Sun glass Tempered and other glass options are available. Contact your Andersen supplier. A removable translucent film helps shield the glass from damage during delivery and construction, and simplifies finishing at the job site. Patterned Glass Patterned glass options are available. See page 12 for more details. HARDWARE Smooth Control Hardware System The smooth control hardware system employs a worm gear drive for easy operation. Units with a wash mode have hinges that move the sash away from the frame to provide easier glass cleaning. CXW15, CXW155, CXW16 and CXW25 sizes not available with wash mode. Hardware option and finish must be specified. Operator handle and cover sold separately. Single-Actuation Casement Lock On casement windows, a single- actuation lock easily releases all locking points on the casement sash while the reach-out action eliminates binding when closing. The lock handle is offered in finishes that coordinate with your specified hardware option. Awning Sash Locks Awning sash locks provide an added measure of security and weathertightness. Hardware style and finish options are compatible with Andersen® casement windows to ensure consistency in appearance when used in window combination designs.
