As part of this renewal process, we will be hosting Open Houses for members of these communities to provide input into the renewal application we will be submitting to the State of Maryland. The Open Houses will include six activity stations that cover the six topic areas of the application: environment, transportation, housing, economy, quality of life and local planning.

2024 COMPREHENSIVE ZONING MAP PROCESS
The 2024 Comprehensive Zoning Map Process (CZMP) will begin on September 1 and will conclude in September of 2024. The CZMP takes place every four years on an exact schedule specified in the County Code. Any citizen may request a zoning change on any property in the County. The CZMP covers a period of approximately 12 months and results in zoning decisions that are reflected in a final Log of Issues, with the County Council enacting legislation for each issue whether to retain the existing zoning or to enact a different zone(s) or district(s). Generally, each issue is a single property, but an issue may cover many adjoining properties and might even cover many hundreds of acres. The zoning on all properties which were not issues is re-enacted without change.
Information: Browse the Comprehensive Zoning Map Process website or contact the Department of Planning by phone at 410-887-3211 or by email at czmp2024@baltimorecountymd.gov.
