exemplify and uphold the unique character of Danville. The design awards are presented
periodically, as warranted, and were last presented during a regularly scheduled Town
Council Meeting in March of 2020.
DISCUSSION
This year the Council has chosen the following Design Award categories:
1) Outstanding New Residential Neighborhood Design
2) Outstanding Custom Home Design

Additional categories may be added if there are additional nominations that do not fall
under a specific category. Project nominations are limited to those that were reviewed by
the Design Review Board (DRB) and were completed within the years 2019-2023.
Final nominations will be provided to the DRB in the January 11, 2024, meeting packet

collectively reviewed during this meeting. The DRB will recommend potential Design
