Title A Resolution concerning the New Carrollton Transit District Overlay Zone for the purpose of reviewing the New Carrollton Transit District Overlay Zone and recommending the re-establishment of the Overlay Zone. Background This resolution will initiate the review of the New Carrollton Transit District Overlay Zone. A Transit District Overlay Zone (“TDOZ”) and a Transit District Development Plan (“TDDP”) were last adopted for this area in 1989, and the Approved Fiscal Year 2008 Planning Department Work Program requires review of the land use plan and regulations for the New Carrollton TDOZ. This project will produce an amended TDDP for the area around the New Carrollton Metro Station to help implement the recommendations of the New Carrollton Transit-Oriented Development Strategy, completed in December 2004. The objective of the plan amendment is to focus County, State, and Federal resources to stimulate appropriate transit-oriented development at the stakeholders, including the City of New Carrollton, WMATA, MDOT/Planning, and certain County agencies. Public meetings and workshops involving area property owners, business owners, and residents will be conducted during the preparation of the new TDDP.
