The Webster Groves Historic Preservation Commission voted on March 10 to approve a resubmitted design application for a sign at 483 East Lockwood and received an update on roof repairs at the Hawkins House.
Commissioners praised the revised sign submission for providing clearer detail and noted that prior review comments had been addressed. The applicant was represented by Jennifer, who identified herself as "associate pastor of PC 9 Church of Christ." After discussion, a motion to approve the design application carried unanimously.
Commission member Sue reported on the Hawkins House roof project, saying the board opted for grade‑4 asphalt shingles. "It cut the price of replacing the roof approximately in half," Sue said, and she added that because the property has funds to pay for the asphalt shingles, "they're going to proceed without the city's help."
The commission discussed next steps for the approved sign application; staff said they would contact Jeff Davis and follow up by email or phone to outline the process. Vice Chair Carol Vanquie announced the commission's next meeting is scheduled for April 14, and the meeting adjourned following a motion to close the session.
No public hearings took place during the March 10 meeting.
