The Town of Sturbridge is seeking an interested resident to serve on the Design Review Committee

There is one (1) opening on the Sturbridge Design Review Committee.  The Design Review Committee is a five (5) member board appointed by the Town Administrator with confirmation by the Board of Selectmen. 

The purpose of the Design Review Committee is to promote safe, functional and attractive development of business and commercial areas; to preserve and enhance the New England character of the Town's commercial centers and thoroughfares as a valid general welfare concern; to unify commercial (and industrial) properties, both visually and physically, with surrounding land uses; to facilitate a more healthful town atmosphere; to protect and preserve the unique and cultural features within the Town; and to protect commercial and residential property values by enhancing the Town's appearance.

It is hoped that over time, as commercial and industrial development continues to seek out opportunities and to advertise and promote its goods and services, the Design Review Committee can help to preserve the Town's streetscape and the inherent qualities of a livable community.

If you would like to serve on this Board, please send your letter of interest to Michelle Garman, Constituent Liaison and Administrative Coordinator at mgarman@sturbridge.gov
