Montgomery Planning is pleased to request nominations for an individual to participate on the Design Advisory Panel (DAP) for the Bethesda Downtown Sector Plan area. The goal of the DAP is to review new projects in Downtown Bethesda and offer advisory comments that will heighten design excellence by improving the quality of architecture, landscape, and public space, guided by the approved Bethesda Downtown Plan Design Guidelines.

The DAP currently has one opening for a registered architect representing academia and we are inviting nominations to be considered for this position. Staff will review the applications and present a recommendation to the Planning Board by the end of the year. Letters of interest should include a brief resume. We ask that nominees submit through email to Grace Bogdan, Bethesda DAP Coordinator, grace.bogdan@montgomeryplanning.org, by Friday, November 10, 2023.

The DAP meets the 4th Wednesday of every month, currently in a hybrid of virtually and in-person at our offices in Downtown Wheaton. Meetings last at most three hours and project materials are provided a week in advance of each meeting.
