(see Guidelines Appendix attached to the Town Center Ordinance).
2.
Maintenance Agreement
Before a building permit is issued, a maintenance agreement shall be executed between the landowner and the Board of County Commissioners, which agreement shall apply whether the building is fully occupied, partially occupied or vacant. The agreement shall provide for the maintenance of the building exterior, signage, lighting, landscaping, parking lots, sidewalks, and trash removal. It shall contain provisions whereby the County shall give the landowner notice of any violations of the agreement and a reasonable time to correct the violation. The agreement shall further provide that if the violation has not been corrected within the specified time, the County shall be permitted to enter the premises, correct the violation and add the costs incurred to the landowner's next tax bill. The agreement shall be recorded among the land records of Calvert County and shall be binding on all subsequent owners so long as the building creating the need for the agreement remains standing.
3.
Co-location[1]
For the purposes of these regulations, co-location is defined as: The placement of smaller retail and service buildings with individual outside entrances on the same site as a large (75,000 sq. ft. +) retail building. The total square footage of the smaller buildings shall equal at least 20 percent of the large retail building. (See design guidelines for examples of co-location.)
The square footage of the co-located buildings shall be excluded from the maximum square footage permitted by the Land Use Charts for the large retail building.

Waivers for Co-location
The Planning Commission may waive the requirements for co-location in cases where a large retail store in existence as of August 10, 2004, is to be expanded on-site by no more than 50% of its gross square footage. No waivers shall be granted for (1) the expansion of a large retail store in existence as of August 10, 2004, if the expansion is more than 50% of its gross square footage or (2) the expansion of large retail stores constructed after August 10, 2004. Such waivers shall only be granted if the applicant demonstrates that an undue hardship will be imposed due to exceptional narrowness, shallowness, or shape of particular parcels of property or by reason of exceptional topographical conditions or other extraordinary situations or conditions affecting the property. Self-imposed hardship and financial hardship shall not be considered.
