“One of the most important things that local governments do is help to decide what kind of real estate happens, where it happens, and makes sure it happens in a way that maximize benefits for the community. One of the most important tools that we use to do this is our zoning ordinance, but [the Prince George’s County] zoning ordinance is more than half a century old and written in a time when the county was changing from farmland to suburbia. We’re a different county today.”
