Description of Columns
- Current Plan: This is the Comprehensive Plan currently adopted by a jurisdiction. In some instances this field will have, 'No Planning Authority'. These municipalities have chosen not to exercise planning authority and have not established a zoning code or subdivision regulations. The decision to not exercise planning and zoning authority is made by the municipality. See Section 4.01 of Article 66B of the Maryland Code for more information
- Current Plan Adopted Date: This is the adoption year for a jurisdiction's current plan
- Draft Plan: The Maryland Department of Planning (MDP) is required to review and comment on all comprehensive plans for local governments to ensure compliance with Article 66B of the Maryland Code. This field includes a copy of the draft plan received by MDP for review and comment.
- Draft Plan Comments: MDP’s comments for the Draft Plan. These comments are based on the preceding draft plan and may not reflect changes or modifications made since that submittal to our agency.
- Review Date: This is the year that a jurisdiction is required to revisit their Comprehensive Plan. The Economic Growth, Resource Protection and Planning Act of 1992 (the Growth Act) amended Article 66B to require jurisdictions to periodically review their Comprehensive Plans and implementation measures. All jurisdictions are required at intervals of no more than six years to review and, if necessary, update the Plan (section 3.05(b) of Article 66B or recodified for charter counties as section 1.03, effective October 1, 2000).
