Objective and Function

The primary objective of the Delaware Board of Landscape Architecture is to protect the public from unsafe practices and practices which tend to reduce competition or fix prices for services. The Board must also maintain standards of professional competence and service delivery. To meet these objectives, the Board

• develops standards for professional competency
• promulgates rules and regulations
• adjudicates complaints against professionals and, when necessary, imposes disciplinary sanctions.

The Board issues licenses to landscape architects and certificates of authorization to certain businesses that provide, or offer to provide, landscape architecture services in Delaware.

The Board’s statutory authority is in 24 Del. C., Chapter 2.

Meetings

All meetings are open to the general public and are held in the Cannon Building, 861 Silver Lake Boulevard, in Dover.
