1. Porch Additions: Porches should not be added to a primary façade if the building did not
The City of Mount Dora Historic Preservation Board is reviewing guidelines for porch additions on historic properties. The proposed rules state that new porches should not be added to a primary facade if the building did not originally have one. New porches may be added to the side or rear of a structure, and they must be similar in size, scale, and materials to the existing building. The guidelines also emphasize preserving porches that were added later but have become part of the building's history. This review is currently planned and under consideration by the board. If approved, these guidelines could lead to work involving exterior renovations, carpentry, and material supply for homeowners undertaking porch additions. Contractors and suppliers specializing in historic preservation and compatible construction methods may find opportunities as property owners adapt their homes to meet these standards.
