Historic Preservation Board Regular Meeting Agenda Packet
[741 South Pennsylvania Avenue, Winter Park, FL 32789; case COR #26-08] Historic Preservation Board agenda for September 9, 2026, includes a public hearing for COR #26-08, a request by Winter Park Day Nursery for approval to construct a 1,025 square-foot, single-story addition in the rear of the existing building at 741 South Pennsylvania Avenue within the College Quarter Historic District, zoned R-2. Staff recommends approval with a condition that existing rooftop equipment be adequately screened from view from the right-of-way. The project also includes interior renovations, bringing total area affected to approximately 2,251 square feet, and will accommodate approximately 18 additional children. The property is approximately 0.81 acres. The agenda also includes a non-action item to discuss demolition of an existing home at 726 Maryland Avenue within the College Quarter Historic District. The document includes minutes from May 13, 2026, which detail approvals for COR #26-06 (835 Antonette Avenue) and COR #26-07 (151 Stirling Avenue), and a discussion on a demolition permit for 250 Virginia Drive. Public comment on the May 13 demolition discussion included Orman Kimbrough in favor, Sally Flynn and Wade Miller opposed, and Betsy Owens did not confirm favor or opposition. Board members expressed strong concern about the potential loss of the home at 250 Virginia Drive and frustration with limited authority to prevent demolition. The document states the Winter Park Day Nursery has been at its location since 1960, and the applicant anticipates construction beginning in late fall 2026 with completion in summer 2027. The document does not state a decision on COR #26-08 or the 726 Maryland Avenue discussion, as these are agenda items for the September 9, 2026 meeting.

4. 835 Antonette Proposed Prelim1
This item concerns a request for a variance to modify previously approved plans for a pool fence at 151 Stirling Avenue. The property is in the Virginia Heights East Historic District and is zoned R-1AA. The applicants, Dennis and Kellie Welsh, wish to place a six-foot-high fence along the property line, which requires a variance from the standard ten-foot setback. The proposed fence will use cedar materials and include a landscape buffer. This project is currently under review by the Historic Preservation Board, with staff recommending approval. The work would involve site preparation for fence installation, including potential minor grading, and the installation of the fence itself, along with landscaping. Contractors specializing in fencing, site preparation, and landscaping could find opportunities here, especially by engaging early before final plans and permits are issued.

4. Public Hearings (Public participation and comment on these matters must be
This item concerns two separate requests for modifications to existing homes in historic districts. The first, COR #26-06, is from Glenn and Leah Eggert for their property at 835 Antonette Avenue. They seek approval to reopen an enclosed front porch on their home, which is in the College Quarter Historic District and zoned R-1A. The second, COR #26-07, is from Dennis and Kellie Welsh for their property at 151 Stirling Avenue. They are requesting a variance to change previously approved plans for a pool fence, specifically regarding its height and location, for their home in the Virginia Heights East Historic District, zoned R-1AA. Both items are currently under review by the Historic Preservation Board. These projects involve work on existing residential structures, potentially including carpentry, roofing, painting, and landscaping services. Contractors and suppliers interested in this type of residential renovation work should reach out to the applicants early, before final plans and permits are issued, to understand the scope and potentially secure future business.
