Background
Section 29-120.01 of the Prince George’s County Code provides a process whereby the owners of historic property may file a petition for designation as an historic site with the Prince George’s County Historic Preservation Commission (“HPC”). After a duly advertised public hearing, the HPC issued a its recommendations to the Planning Board, who in turn held a joint public hearing with the District Council on the applications on October 2, 2012. The Planning Board voted unanimously on November 1, 2012, to approve a letter recommending that the Wilson-Gleis House in Riverdale Park, the Burgess House in Hyattsville, and the Underwood-Bealle House in Accokeek be designated as historic sites. Section 29-120.01 further provides that the final approval of these recommended designations rests with the District Council.
