A RESOLUTION CONCERNING ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING TOWARDS BETTER UTILITY SERVICE AND BILLS for the purpose of directing the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission to analyze energy infrastructure in the County for utility use beyond current processes to foster economic investment and land use and energy innovation; ensure consistency with the Prince George's County Climate Action Plan, the Climate Action Implementation Strategy Plan, and State and federal law; present recommendations as part of any comprehensive update to the County's General Plan; and require consultation with State agencies and the electric companies serving the County and reports to the County Council.

 

Background

This resolution directs the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission to study the benefits and challenges of master planning for utility use beyond the current processes and provide a report to the County Council with recommendations on the implementation of energy infrastructure planning. Such planning will allow the County to further its energy policy and economic development goals, increase its energy resilience, and stabilize utility pricing over the long term.
