This report begins the process of providing necessary background information as the Prince George’s County Planning Department undertakes the task of updating the 2002 Prince George’s County Approved General Plan. Looking Back, Moving Forward analyzes the goals, policies, and strategies of the 2002 General Plan and measures the county’s success over the past ten years in achieving its established land use benchmarks. This report identifies county land use challenges and opportunities related to development pattern, environmental infrastructure, transportation infrastructure, public facilities, economic development, housing and community character. It also summarizes national, regional, as well as county economic and demographic trends; and starts to identify important questions about where and how the county will grow over the next 20 years.
