Go Prince George's

A remand of a Master Plan, Sector Plan, and/or Sectional Map Amendment (SMA) occurs when the Planning Board or the County Council, sitting as the District Council, determines that additional analysis by the Planning Department is required before the Planning Board or District Council may act on the plan or SMA.

The Planning Department conducted an analysis of the Go Prince George’s “2025 Preliminary Plan” and recommended that the Planning Board remand the plan back to the Department because the 2025 plan did not fully meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance or the County Council’s resolution initiating the planning process and contained numerous errors and omissions that made further action on this plan premature. See the Planning Department’s analysis and recommendations for additional details.

Until a new master plan of transportation is approved, the 2009 Approved Countywide Master Plan of Transportation, as amended by Plan 2035, and all Area Master, Sector, Functional Master, and Transit District Development Plans approved on or subsequent to November 17, 2009, remains the County’s applicable plan for transportation and mobility. Please visit www.pgatlas.com to determine whether you need to consult with the applicable Area Master, Sector, or Transit District Development Plan approved on or after November 17, 2009 or the 2009 Approved Countywide Master Plan of Transportation to identify the applicable transportation recommendations, including master-planned transportation facilities, for a location in the County.

The remand does not change this.

Barring major changes to the County’s current or future transportation network, the Planning Department anticipates releasing a Staff Draft Master Plan of Transportation for public review in the Spring of 2027.
