Title

AN ORDINANCE CONCERNING ADMINISTRATION - STREAMLINING THE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW PROCESS for the purpose of authorizing concurrent submission of certain development applications regarding the same parcel or development site; and generally streamlining the development review process to foster greater economic growth Prince George’s County.

 

Background

This bill seeks to encourage economic development in Prince George’s County by streamlining the development review process. Development of a parcel of land may involve different regulatory approvals, including subdivision, site plan, stormwater management and tree conservation. Rather than submitting each application in a sequential order, this bill would allow developers to submit applications for the same site at the same time. Specifically, applicants could concurrently submit the following applications for concurrent consideration: preliminary plan of subdivision; detailed site plan; final plat of subdivision; stormwater management design plan; and tree conservation plan.
