Architectural review requirements are based on the premise that building and landscaping design bears a direct relationship to the economic and social well-being of its residents. The Architectural Review Committee reviews exterior design features of structures and signs in accordance with the appearance standards and guideline provisions of the Town Center's respective Master Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Membership details and meeting dates/times are available on the Solomons Architectural Review Committee page.
The design manual is to be used in conjunction with the Solomons Town Center Zoning Ordinance. The manual offers applicants examples of desirable design elements and shows examples of how new construction and renovation work can be compatible with the character of the town center. The Planning Commission adopted the design manual on August 2, 2010.
