The Cape Charles Historic District Review Board’s regular meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, March 19, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. The meeting will address a range of Certificate of Appropriateness applications.
Among the key applications on the agenda are:

- 614 Pine Street: Similar to the project at 612 Pine Street, this application seeks to replace double-hung vinyl windows with similar ones featuring muntins between the glass.
- 110 Tazewell Avenue: The proposal aims to modify previously approved front porch steps and side porch steps to include wrought iron or aluminum railing. Additionally, it seeks to extend driveway pavers to the back of the house and continue with shells to the alley.
