The Berkeley County Historic Landmarks Commission recorded that an application for a certificate of appropriateness for the Decatur Hedges House (referred to in the minutes as the Maple Ridge property) has been submitted and is scheduled for review on the commission's June agenda.

Michael Briel told the commission the Decatur Hedges House certificate application is ready for consideration in June. The minutes show no formal action was taken on the application at the April 27 meeting; the item was entered into old business for follow-up prior to the June review.

During the chair's report the commission noted County Planning has agreed to pay for all public postings for certificate-of-appropriateness reviews. The minutes present this as an administrative change intended to cover public-notice costs associated with certificate reviews; the chair did not provide a legislative or budget citation for the commitment during the meeting.

The commission did not vote on the certificate application or on any change to its public‑posting procedures at the April meeting. The Decatur Hedges House application will appear on the June agenda for formal review and any necessary determinations.
