Design Review is a process through which proposed building elevations, site plans, landscaping plans and signs are reviewed by Planning staff and/or the Planning Commission. The purpose of Design Review is to assure an orderly development so that buildings, structures, signs and landscaping will be harmonious within specific areas of the City; to prevent the development of structures or uses which are not of acceptable exterior design or appearance or are of inferior quality or likely to have a depreciating or negative effect on the local environment or surrounding area by reasons of use, design, or appearance or other criteria affecting value.
