Design Review Committee

The Design Review Committee was established by County ordinance to review the building plans for new development in certain unincorporated communities of the County which are zoned Design Review (DR). These coastside communities are El Granada, Miramar, Moss Beach, & Montara.

The Design Review Committee was appointed by the Board of Supervisors to ensure that new development is compatible with the physical setting of the site and the visual character of the community. Specific design standards for each community have been adopted by the County (contained in the Design Review (DR) Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 28.1) (.87mb)) which is used by the Committee to evaluate and take action on each application. Copies of the DR Ordinance are available at the Planning counter at the Planning Division office.

The Committee holds public hearings on the second Thursday of each month, beginning at 3:00 p.m. Meetings are held at the Sheriff's North Coast Sub-Station, 500 California Avenue, Moss Beach.

For additional information about the requirements and procedures for submitting an application to the Design Review Committee or an item on the Committee's agenda, call the Design Review Officer at (650) 363-1831. The following 2 brochures contain more information.
