A land classification system under the Montgomery County Zoning Ordinance intended to regulate the land uses and buildings permitted in each zone, excluding road right-of-ways. Certain uses are permitted by right and others as conditional uses. Any use not expressly permitted is prohibited. The Ordinance also excludes certain uses from each zone. The text of the Zoning Ordinance specifies the permitted uses, the bulk (massing) of buildings, the required yards, the necessary off-street parking and other prerequisites to obtain permission to develop. Zoning Blocks: The main block boundaries identifying the base zone for parcels. Overlay Zones: Various overlay zones apply modifying factors to standards and uses normally found on the zoning blocks beneath them. Zoning History Annotations: Zoning case history and special exception notations Overlay TDR: Various overlay zones apply modifying factors to standards and uses normally found on the zoning blocks beneath them.

In 1980, the Montgomery County Council made one of the most significant land-use decisions in county history by creating what we call the Agricultural Reserve. Heralded as one of the best examples of land conservation policies in the country, the Agricultural Reserve encompasses 93,000 acres – almost a third of the county’s land resources – along the county’s northern, western, and eastern borders.The Agricultural Reserve and its accompanying Master Plan and zoning elements were designed to protect farmland and agriculture. Along with a sustained commitment to agriculture through the county’s Office of Agriculture, the combination of tools helps retain more than 500 farms that contribute millions of dollars to Montgomery County’s annual economy. This is a notable achievement in an area so close to the nation’s capital, where development pressure remains perpetual and intense.For more information, contact: GIS Manager Information Technology & Innovation (ITI) Montgomery County Planning Department, MNCPPC T: 301-650-5620

Administrative Subdivision Plans are much like Preliminary Plans, except rather than being acted on by the board, they are approved or denied administratively by the Planning Director. More information about this plan type can be found here: https://montgomeryplanning.org/development/development-applications/administrative-subdivision-plan/For more information, contact: GIS Manager Information Technology & Innovation (ITI) Montgomery County Planning Department, MNCPPC T: 301-650-5620

Established by law in 2008, the Building Lot Termination (BLT) Program is a farmland preservation tool. A BLT easement restricts residential, commercial, industrial and other non-agricultural uses on a given property. The primary purpose of a BLT easement is to preserve agricultural land by reducing the fragmentation of farmland resulting from residential development. Creating a BLT easement can provide additional compensation to a landowner who can demonstrate that the land is capable of residential development and agrees to forgo that development and terminate the approved waste disposal system associated with the lot. BLTs are subsequently used in the development process. Acquisition of whole or partial BLTs is required for all optional method projects in Commercial Residential (CR) and Life Sciences Center (LSC) zones. BLTs are options in the Commercial Residential Town (CRT) and Employment Office (EOF) zones as part of the public benefit portion of incentive development. Details are available in the Montgomery County Zoning Ordinance, Section 59.4.7.3.

A screening tool based on a simple analysis of 3 core equity variables to define the highest concentration of vulnerable populations. EFAs are derived from high concentrations of low income households, people of color, and people speaking English less than very well. EFA analysis is a dichotomy: tracts are either designated an EFA or not. These areas can be used as a tool for analysis of racial equity and social justice issues such as access to opportunities and resources, employment, transportation, health, housing and government services, and provide groundwork for equity analysis to support ongoing and future planning efforts.Field Names and Descriptors:GEOID10: Census tract identifier; a concatenation of the state Federal Information Processing Series (FIPS) code, county FIPS codes, and census tract code (Number Field)tract: U.S. Census Tract labeltractID: U.S. Census Tract label EFA_Fnl: EFA Status (YES = within, NO = outside)EFA_FnlNum: EFA Status code (2 is an EFA, 1 = outside, not an EFA) PoC_scoreEFA: People of Color Index score (0-3) = low to high concentrationCHAS80_scoreEFA: Low HH Income Index score (0-3) = low to high concentration Source: 2017 Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS), HUDPoCCHASIndex_EFA: Addition of People of Color and Low Income Index scores (combined scores of 5 or 6 qualify as an EFA)EngLTvw_ScoreEFA: Speak English Less Than Very Well Index score (0-3) = low to high concentration.

HOA's are a membership group of people that serves a specific purpose with respect to a specific community or a group of homeowners in a specific geographic area. The homeowners association usually has a formal structure with elected leaders and rules require membership in the association.

The Planning Department maintains a list of organizations to keep residents informed. Developers use our list to publicize their application plans, and we send announcements about planning issues of interest to the community. Providing current email addresses cuts costs and ensures a rapid flow of information. The Homeowners and Civic Associations Tools page on the Planning Department website has tools for generating mailing lists and for updating homewowners association contact information.For more information, contact: GIS Manager Information Technology & Innovation (ITI) Montgomery County Planning Department, MNCPPC T: 301-650-5620
