For a Certificate of Appropriateness:

"...In making its determinations, the planning commission may consider any architectural feature which influences appearance, such as, but not limited to motif and style, color, texture and materials, configuration, orientation, mass, shape, height and location of buildings, location and configuration of parking areas, landscaping and buffering. The zoning administrator and/or the town manager or their designees shall approve signs."

And under "architecture":
"5) Architectural styles, building and roofing materials, and colors shall be reflective of the traditional architecture of Abingdon. This may be accomplished through building scale, materials, and forms, all of which may be embodied in architecture which is contemporary as well as traditional."
