Abstract

This layer shows the boundaries of the three tiers (Developed, Developing, and Rural) established through approval of the 2002 Prince George's County General Plan. The tier boundaries follow property lines, municipal boundary (as for the City of Greenbelt), centerlines of pavement, and water and sewer plan envelope. Tier boundaries may be changed through General Plan amendment (such as through the approval of a new master or sector plan). The boundaries are amended by the adoption of Plan 2035, per CR-26-2014, available at http://prince.he195.vps.webenabled.net/sites/default/files/documents/DC%20General%20Plan%20Final%20Resolution%20Signed%205-6-2014.pdf.
