What's on this agenda

A busy night for the Historic District Commission: eight individual properties come before it, plus a batch of administrative approvals for routine maintenance. Each address is a request to alter a building inside one of Chapel Hill's historic districts, which needs a certificate of appropriateness before the work can proceed.

The addresses run across the town's historic areas — Fraternity Court, Ridge Lane, Gimghoul Road, Pittsboro Street, South Columbia Street, Cobb Terrace, Glenburnie Street. If you own or live near one of these, this is the meeting that decides what happens to it. The commission also acknowledges Hispanic Heritage Month at the opening.
