Solano County Zoning Code § 28.102 Architectural Approval

A. Purpose

The purpose of architectural approval is to promote the orderly and harmonious development of the County, the stability of land values and investments, and the general welfare; and to help prevent the impairment or depreciation of land values and development by the erection of structures or additions or alterations thereto of unsightly, undesirable, or obnoxious appearance. A building permit shall not be issued until architectural approval has been obtained.

B. Procedure

The Zoning Administrator and Planning Commission are authorized to review and approve or disapprove, or approve subject to compliance, the external design of all proposed new uses, dwellings, buildings or structures with such modifications or conditions as may be deemed necessary to carry out the purpose of this Chapter.

Should the Zoning Administrator or Planning Commission determine that a proposed use or structure does not meet the architectural standards set forth in Section 28.72.10(A) and 28.91, zoning approval of the permit or entitlement authorizing such use or structure shall not be granted.
