Approved New Guidelines for Architectural Review Effective Now

 

New architectural guidelines, passed by the City Council, became effective August 1, 2011.  The City's Architectural Review Board will begin to review building plans for all new single-family residences, additions, and accessory structures. This is a change from the past, when only signs, multi-family buildings, and certain commercial projects were subject to review. ARB will offer design suggestions to help residents and builders comply with City guidelines.  The Guidelines and required forms are provided on this Website.  The new ARB guidelines will be administered through Tony Carvalho, the City's building commissioner. To reach him, call 314-822-5814.
