Planning staff is currently drafting the Preliminary Subregion 5 Master Plan and Sectional Map Amendment. The draft preliminary plan will be available to the public in February 2009. The planning staff will hold a subregion-wide informational meeting on the plan’s preliminary recommendations in early November.
More information on the date, time, and location of this meeting will be available on this website in the coming weeks.
Project Overview
The Prince George's County Planning Department is preparing a master plan and sectional map amendment for the Subregion 5 area. The goal of this project is to update the 1993 master plan for the Subregion to further the policy recommendations of the 2002 General Plan
A master plan is a written report, approved by the District Council, which establishes how the county would like the land in the project area to develop in the future. It establishes recommendations that guide the county officials in making decisions on the use of land within the project boundary.
A sectional map amendment (SMA) amends the county’s official zoning map to implement the recommendations in an approved master plan.
