Community Vision
- A network of attractive roads that unifies the community and meets projected traffic needs.
- A central park feature and a highly visible and usable network of natural greenways and parks extending throughout the 6,000-acre area.
- A mixed-use town center with defined core, edge, and fringe areas; a high-density, urban, pedestrian-oriented character; ample employment and retail; as well as a lively main street and town square capable of hosting community events and parades.
- Three small mixed-use village centers to serve outer Westphalia neighborhoods and create gateways.
- Attractive and safe residential neighborhoods with a range of housing types and densities, access to schools, recreation, green spaces and shopping, designed to minimize the usage and visual impact of cars.
- Preservation of key scenic and historic community features.
- Preservation of rural character along the eastern edge with clustered development and incremental increases in densities up to a high density urban core in the center.
- Green buffers along MD 4 and the Capital Beltway.
- New industrial development is restricted outside areas designated as the Andrews Air Force Base noise zone dBA70 and higher. Existing industrial uses outside the 70 dBA line should be redeveloped for residential uses.
