Historic Disctrict Council Regular Meeting · 2026-05-21 · agenda_item

The City of Fernandina Beach Historic District Council has reviewed and recommended for approval the 2026 updates to the Fernandina Beach Historic Downtown Design Guidelines. This item is currently under review and moving towards final approval by the City Commission. The updates involve revisions to design guidelines for the historic downtown area, including discussions on retaining original siding and creating checklists for document review. This process could lead to future work related to historic property renovations, material sourcing, and compliance consulting. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in historic preservation, construction, and related fields are encouraged to engage early to understand the final guidelines and potential project requirements before bids and permits are finalized.
