Thank you for getting to Know Your Neighborhood

Thank you for getting to Know Your Neighborhood with the Prince George’s Zoning Rewrite Team! We had a great time and learned more about our greater Prince George’s County neighborhood. KNOW YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD was a two-part series designed to help County residents better understand the zoning context that shapes our communities and how these regulations affect our everyday lives.

During these workshops, participants

  • learned how zoning and development can shape our neighborhoods,
  • used online tools to provide feedback on the Zoning Rewrite recommendations,
  • participated in an interactive simulation of how zoning can reflect the aspirations, fears, and hopes of the people that live in a community,
  • explored desired outcomes for a new Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations,
  • dug deeper into our similarities and differences as a community,
  • better understood what our neighbors may be looking to achieve with the Zoning Ordinance update,
  • and review recommendations for the new draft regulations.

If you missed the event, do not worry. You can view pictures from the event on our Facebook page and review the PowerPoint presentations from Know Your Neighborhood and Build Your Neighborhood.
