This data set displays the geographic location and boundary of the Preliminary Subregion 5 Master Plan and the Proposed Sectional Map Amendment for Planning Areas 81A, 81B, 83, 84, and 85A. The plan amends the 1993 Approved Master Plan and Sectional Map Amendment for Subregion 5, Planning Areas 81A, 81B, 83, 84, 85A, and 85B. It also amends the 2002 Prince George's County Approved General Plan and other functional master plans. This plan was developed with citizen input during numerous community planning workshops in 2007 & 2008. Planning policies in the General Plan are refined as land use concepts for the Brandywine Center and for the Rural Tier. Consistent with policies in the General Plan, future development is primarily directed toward areas with existing or planned infrastructure and away from areas that are designated to retain rural character. Specific commercial areas in Clinton and Brandywine are designated as future mixed-use, transit- and pedestrian-oriented growth centers suitable for a wide array of public, commercial, employment, and residential land uses. The land use concept for the Brandywine center refines the boundaries of this center and encourages development centered on two future transit hubs. The key planning concept in Accokeek preserves the rural Livingston Road Corridor as the focus of the community and restricts the intensity of future development. In the Rural Tier, the future development pattern is planned to minimize impacts to the environment and infrastructure. The plan addresses the subregion's environmental infrastructure, transportation, schools, fire, police, library, parks, recreation, economic development, historic preservation, and scenic roads. The sectional map amendment proposes zoning changes to allow implementation of the land use concepts in the master plan.

High-intensity development is encouraged at the National Harbor Metropolitan Center and medium- to high-intensity redevelopment is encouraged at the Oxon Hill Regional Center. There is a strong emphasis on mixed-use, transit- and pedestrianoriented development patterns in these areas. It also encourages low- to moderate-intensity mixed-use development at designated corridor nodes, activity centers, and other mixed-use areas. The plan recommends enacting conservation subdivision regulations and other flexible standards that place a premium on conserving open areas and protecting environmental features. Land use and urban design concepts and illustrations are included that encourage mixed-use, compact and pedestrian-friendly development. The Areawide Infrastructure element addresses environment, transportation, schools, fire, police, library, parks and trails. The Community Character element addresses economic development, historic preservation, urban design, and revitalization issues.
