Assisting Dialog for Updating Our Community's Design Regulations
Monday, August 4, 2008
Findings Continued
The exitsing Regulations state:
"Buildings shall respect the architectural heritage of the neighborhood with complimentary choices for materials, building scale, proportions and architectural details".
Staff intent to clarify this direction, by defining permitted materials that would complement the more architecturally interesting buildings in the area, such as those in the image on the left.
The update is focused on our historic downtown with two main objectives: provide more context appropriate guidance for future development in this district; and, integrate the recommendations associated with the Downtown & Waterfront Redevelopment Plan, the Windjammer Plan, into the regulations.
