The Michigan City Historic Preservation Commission on Feb. 23 ratified two staff-approved maintenance items.
Staff reported that COA 2026-005, at 502 East 9th Street, is a front-porch replacement using like materials to rebuild the porch as it was. COA 2026-006, at 716 Spring Street, is a porch-roof replacement using the same materials and color; staff noted the roof had poor condition after a fallen tree and hail damage. Both items were added to the meeting packet as staff approvals.
A commissioner moved to approve both staff-approved COAs; the motion was seconded and carried by roll call with commissioners present voting yes.

The ratification clears the two maintenance projects to proceed through the standard permitting and inspection process.
