2024 COMPREHENSIVE ZONING MAP PROCESS OVERVIEW MEETING

The Baltimore County Department of Planning will hold a virtual Comprehensive Zoning Map Process (CZMP) Overview Meeting on Tuesday, June 13, at 6:30 p.m. A link to join may be found on the events page of the 2024 CZMP website.

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.
