166.02 STATEMENT OF INTENT.
    In the interest of promoting the general welfare of the community and to protect the value of buildings and property, the image and character of a community is considered important. It is recognized that the community should be visually attractive as well as economically prosperous and the manner in which a use is accomplished is as important as the use itself. It is the intent of these architectural standards to establish basic parameters for building design that when followed have the effect of producing structures that preserve and enhance building and property values, are long-lasting, resistant to deterioration, and maintain their visual appeal over time. It is further the intent of these standards to establish and promote a community image of permanence, quality, authenticity, and consistency through building design. It is not the intent of these standards to unduly restrict design freedom or apply a particular architectural style to all structures.
166.03 ARCHITECTURAL PERFORMANCE STANDARDS.
    As part of the submittal of a site plan for development within any of the zoning districts and for any of the uses listed within this chapter (with the exception of single-family and two-family dwellings), architectural plans for buildings shall be submitted for review and approval by the City Council upon receipt of a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission.
