Old Towne Design Review Advisory Committee

The “Old Towne” District is unique through its development as the original village center of the City of Olive Branch, and is an object of special and substantial public interest due to its richness in tradition, charm, and character, imparting a distinctly quaint aspect to an otherwise new City, as well as serving as a visible reminder of the cultural and historic development of the City. It is deemed essential to the public welfare that these qualities relating to the Old Towne District be preserved and protected from destructive changes in use and the growth pressures evident within the area and throughout the community, which threaten its existence as a unique, cohesive, and definable whole.

It is the intent of the Design Review Advisory Committee to review all construction, reconstruction, alteration, rehabilitation, repair, moving or demolition of structures within the Old Towne District. The Committee will also review fences, signs, landscaping, or parking areas, both new construction or a change or alteration in the existing.
