May 27 2026 - Historic District Commission

The City of Conway, Arkansas Historic District Commission held a meeting on May 27, 2026, primarily to review and approve a new single-family residence construction project at 330 Ash Street within the Old Conway Design Overlay District. The discussion focused on ensuring the proposed structure met zoning and design standards, including setbacks, lot coverage, architectural style, and materials. Conditions for approval included obtaining building permits, replatting the property, submitting a revised site plan with precise measurements, maintaining street frontage trees, installing sidewalks and green space, and screening HVAC equipment. The commission also discussed administrative procedures for future fencing approvals to streamline compliance without requiring additional public hearings. The certificate of appropriateness will be issued once the applicant submits the required revised site plan, allowing them to proceed with building permits. No specific contract awards or budget allocations were discussed during this meeting.
