Background
The approved FY 2011 Planning Department Work Program includes the initiation of a Greenbelt Metro Area Sector Plan and a concurrent sectional map amendment (SMA). The new sector plan will establish goals, policies, and strategies to guide the future growth and development of the Greenbelt Metro Station Metropolitan Center and portions of the MD 193 Corridor generally located within the City of Greenbelt and the Town of Berwyn Heights.
The new sector plan will amend portions of the 1989 Approved Master Plan for Langley Park-College Park-Greenbelt and Vicinity; 1990 Adopted Sectional Map Amendment for Planning Areas 65, 66, and 67; 2001 Approved Sector Plan and Sectional Map Amendment for the Greenbelt Metro Area; and 2002 Prince George’s County Approved General Plan. The new sector plan will establish goals, policies and strategies to guide the future growth of this portion of Prince George’s County. The planning and zoning recommendations will provide guidance for future development activity appropriate for the General Plan-designated Developed Tier, Greenbelt Metropolitan Center, and the designated University Boulevard/MD 193 Corridor. This resolution initiates the Greenbelt Metro Area and MD 193 Corridor Sector Plan and SMA.
