1Opinion of the Court
REID, Associate Judge.
Petitioner Paul Reneau petitions from a decision of the Mayor’s Agent under the Historic Landmark and Historic District Protection Act, denying his request for a permit to put a fourth floor rooftop addition on his property as well as a third floor rear deck. He contends that (1) the Agent’s decision was arbitrary and capricious and was not based on substantial evidence; (2) the Agent erred in failing to explain why he rejected Mr. Reneau’s expert testimony; and (3) the Agent committed error in interpreting the Historic Landmark statute. We affirm.
