Frederick’s Historic District cuts sign approvals to one motion
The Frederick Historic District Commission shortened sign approval time to a single quick motion after creating a sign committee that reviews requests a week before regular meetings. Ten signs were approved in under a minute by an en masse vote, shifting focus to exterior changes. Critics warn the full commission may overturn committee recommendations, while supporters call the change efficient.
