This document is a Vacant Lot Strategy for the Town of Capitol Heights, a small municipality located in Prince George’s County, Maryland, incorporated in 1910 (Planning Area 75B, Councilmanic District 7). In fall 2021, the Town applied to the Prince George’s County Planning Department’s Planning Assistance to Municipalities and Communities (PAMC) program to fund this strategy. PAMC funding was approved by the Prince George’s County Planning Board on May 26, 2022, and the project kicked off on January 13, 2023. The strategy
establishes a Vacant Lot Inventory; identifies existing regulatory, environmental, maintenance, and financial challenges; and provides goals and recommendations for maintaining, repurposing, and/or developing vacant lots. The Capitol Heights Vacant Lot Strategy aligns with
past and ongoing planning efforts by the Town, the County, and the greater Washington, DC region to support livable and transit-oriented communities.
