The Zoning_Py feature class is based on the “Prince George’s County Countywide Sectional Map Amendment (CMA); CR-27-2019 (DR-2), Attachment C: Approved Guide to New Zones(“the Guide”) approved on 7/23/2019, applied to the County’s Existing Zoning Map as of June 1, 2019. Classes of Zones are attributed to this feature class under the Field Name "CLASS", using the same abbreviated format as appears in the adopted new Zoning Ordinance, section 27-4102. This feature class is comprised of six subtypes: (“Rural and Agricultural Base Zones”; “Residential Base Zones”; “Nonresidential Base Zones”; “Transit‐Oriented/Activity Center Base Zones”; “Other Base Zones”; and “Planned Development Zones”. The Subtypes are attributed to the feature class under the Field Name "ZONE_TYPE" using the same abbreviated format as appears in the new Zoning Ordinance, Sec. 27-4103. Zoning boundaries at rights-of-way are graphically delineated to follow property boundaries that run along those rights-of-way; however, boundaries of zones should always, unless explicitly cited, be interpreted to follow the centerlines of those rights-of-way. Polygons of this featureclass represent regions of like zoning unbroken by parcel boundaries. A number of features are have their CLASS set to "Not Assigned" and are typically the result of processing issues derived from the older zoning data, certain rights-of-way, or properties where the account information is currently unknown. Please contact M-NCPPC with any questions or additional information you may have.This feature data was approved in CR-136-2021 and became effective April 1, 2022. |
