Adequate Public School Facilities
The Baltimore County Code requires that the Office of Planning create regulations, Adopted School Impact Regulations(PDF), to assess development impact on schools.  The County Code also requires that the Office of Planning furnish the annual School Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance Report and Maps(PDF) using the September 30 school enrollment data, indicating overcrowded school districts in accordance with parameters in the County Code.

Socioeconomic Forecasts Development
The Office of Planning updates socioeconomic forecasts yearly for transportation planning purposes through the cooperative forecasting process in the Baltimore region.  The forecasts are key inputs in travel demand modeling and air quality conformity analysis.  Forecasts also are essential to the regional long-range plan updated every 4 years required by the federal Safe, Accountable, Fair, Efficient Transportation Equity Act – Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU).
