The commission gave formal approval for several property changes in Opelika’s historic districts, which means the owners may proceed with the specified exterior work using the materials and conditions the commission or staff recommended. A Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) is the permission the city issues to allow alterations to buildings in a historic district; these approvals do not remove building permits or other required reviews. Staff has sent maintenance letters to some property owners and is awaiting responses. The commission’s next meeting is scheduled for June 11, 2026.
