The Boca Grande Historic Preservation Board will meet at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, April 9, in the Boca Grande Community Center to review three proposals, as well as to hold an informal discussion on post storm plan reconsiderations for the Community Center. 

The three special certificate of appropriateness cases to be reviewed are:

• Proposed renovations to 1060 10th St. E., including new second floors for both the main house and pool house, first floor additions to the main house, a new front porch on the main house, changes to the doors and windows and enclosing the existing open-air carport to become a garage.

• Request to raise existing main house of 231 Park Ave. approximately four feet above its current elevation to avoid future flooding; proposed new exterior balconies, screened porch and exterior terraces and steps to address the new elevation at all existing exterior doors.

• Proposal to replace flat roof with low-angle roof at 1140 11th St. W., remove and alter windows and doors and replace enclosed area with a screened lanai.
