A Resolution proposing amendments to the Adopted Henson Creek-South Potomac Master Plan and Endorsed Sectional Map Amendment which define long-range land use policies for guiding future development and set out the comprehensive rezoning which implements those land use policies within the planning area.
Background
Council Resolution 33-2003 approved the initiation of the Henson Creek-South Potomac Master Plan and Sectional Map Amendment (SMA) on June 17, 2003. The goal of the plan is to develop a comprehensive approach to implementing the recommendations of the 2002 General Plan and to ensure that future development is consistent with county policies. On July 12, 2005, the District Council and the Planning Board held a duly-advertised joint public hearing to receive testimony on the preliminary plan. On December 1, 2005, the Planning Board adopted the plan and endorsed the SMA with amendments contained in Planning Board Resolution PGCPB No. 05-241. The District Council held a worksession on January 17, 2006, to review Planning Board recommendations, and proposed a number of amendments to the adopted plan and endorsed SMA. The District Council will hold a second public hearing on the proposed amendments, which are stated separately in this resolution.
