The nature of a design review is somewhat similar to a design charette or design workshop. This manual is intended to assist both the applicant and the CDC in defining Dutch Architectural Elements during the design review process. The elements listed below are representative of typical Dutch architectural elements. The following are acceptable elements, upon review and approval of the Community Development Committee. Other architectural elements may be allowed upon approval of the Community Development Committee.
Gables are one of the most common elements.
Lanterns Architectural Facades, Exterior Walls and Elevations Brick is the primary acceptable exterior wall material. Stucco-like material and wood are also acceptable in some instances but shall be treated only as an exception. Wall material selection shall be approved by the Community Development Committee. Building facades of all buildings shall be consistent with the character, massing, volume, and materials of the building typology. Variety in building massing is encouraged.
