When requested by Council, the MPB, the Planning Official, the DDB, the CRA, or other
City official or board, the ARB should provide advice regarding the appearance of
development within the ARB's jurisdiction. The ARB should also review proposed land
development regulations relating to the appearance of development within the ARB's
jurisdiction and advise the MPB whether such proposed regulations are consistent with
generally accepted principles of urban planning and design and applicable provisions
of adopted City planning, design, and appearance guidance documents.

Executive Secretary is responsible for scheduling regular meetings and also for establishing
fixed deadlines for the submission of completed applications. The Executive Secretary
should issue a schedule of the regular ARB meetings and respective application submission

may be called by the Executive Secretary.
