What shapes a project in Annapolis
Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.
Age and type of housing
About 16% of Annapolis housing units were built in 1939 or earlier, and about a third between 1970 and 1989, based on 2020-2024 Census estimates. Detached homes make up about 40% of units and single-family attached homes about 25%.
Historic District approvals
All exterior projects in the Annapolis Historic District need a certificate of approval under City Code Chapter 21.56, even when no building permit is needed. Outside the district, non-structural replacement or repair of windows, doors and siding on homes needs no building permit.
Properties near tidal water
Land within 1,000 feet of tidal wetlands and the head of tide can fall in the Chesapeake Bay Critical Area. Its buffer of at least 100 feet along tidal waters and wetlands generally does not allow new structures or new lot coverage, so check a waterside property on the Critical Area map before designing an addition or deck.
