What is the CAC?

​The Community Appearance Commission (CAC) assists City Council in initiating, establishing, and enhancing programs, projects and policies that improve the overall physical appearance and quality of life in Salisbury.


Meetings are held the 1st Wednesday of every month at 4:00 p.m. at City Hall. The CAC does not meet in July.


Special Requirements: Efforts are made to maintain a majority of members who have had special training or experience in a design field, such as architecture, landscape design, horticulture, city planning or a closely related field.​
