205 CMR 135.03 - Design Review Process

(1) The commission or its representative may participate in the design review process for the design of the project. This process may run in parallel to the local, state and federal review process and may include all elements of the project, including but not limited to the gaming establishment and any amenities approved by the commission, whether constructed together or in phases, as well as any off-site improvements. The commission may participate in the following key milestones of the design review process:
(a) development of initial concept;
(b) development of the schematic design;
(c) completion of the final site plan and architectural design; and
(d) development of the construction design package.
(2) As part of the development of the initial concept, the commission may request a narrative describing the project and stipulating the basis for the design. The narrative should include a pictorial representation of the project design concept and a narrative description of the project.
(3) When the licensee has completed the schematic design phase, the commission may request that the licensee submit the schematic design to the commission or its representative for review.

Such schematic design may include descriptions of the external façade of any structures that are part of the project, all the major systems, a floor plan and any off site infrastructure improvements planned by licensee. The commission or its representative may request, where available, examples of materials to be used in the building façade.

(4) The commission or its representative may request for review and approval the final site plan and architectural design package. Such final design package shall be in the form ready for licensee's use in creating construction bid packages. Where available, the commission or its representative may request examples of materials to be used on the exterior or in the interior of the project as well as examples of the furniture and fixtures to be used in the project.
(5) The commission's representative may request construction packages for review prior to putting such construction packages out for bid.
