Public Advisory Consultation
Some projects in Areas of Special Planning Concern are required to have an advisory development consultation if they do not require either a Planning Board Advisory Consultation or a special permit from the Planning Board. For projects greater than 2,000 square feet, this advisory consultation is called a Public Advisory Consultation, and involves a meeting where the general public and city staff may view and comment on the proposed project. As of February 10, 2025, Public Advisory Consultation replaces previous Large Project Review procedures. See Section 19.40 of the Zoning Ordinance for details.
Projects subject to Public Advisory Consultation Procedures may also fall under the Sustainable Design and Development requirements found in Article 22 of the Zoning Ordinance. For more information and details, see the Sustainable Development page.
