Comprehensive Design Zones - Specific Design Plans - Procedures
The County Council presented CB-27-2018, a bill that clarifies the intent of the Council to authorize the Planning Director to approve minor revisions, limited in scope and nature, as with such authority enacted approved via CB-42-2002, to specific design plans. In 2002, the District Council enacted legislation ("CB-42-2002") to provide authority for the Planning Director to approve certain minor revisions, necessarily limited in scope and nature, for approved Conceptual Site Plans, Detailed Site Plans, and Special Exception Site Plans. In addition, this 2002 legislation authorized certain limited departures from design standard requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, to include signs, parking and loading spaces and facilities, and other structures.
