Important Update for Civic Associations

In accordance with the Prince George’s County Zoning Ordinance effective April 1, 2022, civic associations registered with the Planning Director are eligible to receive informational mailings and emails about pre-application neighborhood meetings within the association’s defined geographical area. 

Key Changes: 

• Re-Registration Every Two Years
  • Associations will no longer receive annual renewal notices in January.
  • Instead, associations must re-register every two years to continue receiving notifications.
  • Initial registrations are valid from the date of registration until December 31 of the following year.
• Residency Requirement
  • Officers of the association must retain their primary residence within the association’s delineated area of interest.
  • The Planning Director may decline registration if the association’s area is unclear or does not meet the requirements of Section 27-3402(d) of the Zoning Ordinance.

How to Register:

• Use our Register a Community Association Application Portal.
• Complete all required information.
• Once submitted, you’ll receive a confirmation email for your records.
• By registering, your association will be included in mailings on new development projects in your community.
