5. Ideally, window and door openings should not be reduced or
This item concerns proposed guidelines for window and door openings in historic buildings. The Historic Preservation Commission of the City of Fort Myers is reviewing a policy that suggests window and door openings should not be changed in size. Alterations should keep the building's overall design in mind. This review is in its early stages, meaning plans are still being considered. If adopted, these guidelines could impact future renovation or new construction projects in historic areas. This could involve work related to window and door replacements or modifications. Contractors specializing in historic building materials, window and door installation, and general contracting may find opportunities. Engaging early could provide insight into specific project needs as the guidelines are finalized.
