Bladensburg Town Center Sector Plan and Sectional Map Amendment
The Prince George's County Planning Department of the Maryland-National Capital
Park and Planning Commission has prepared a sector plan and sectional map
amendment (SMA) for the Central Business District of the Town of Bladensburg.
The Town of
Bladensburg requested this sector plan amendment to the 1994 Approved Master
Plan and SMA for Bladensburg-New Carrollton and Vicinity (Planning Area 69)
in the spring of 2004. This request was a key implementation step determined
by the "Feasibility Study for the Town Center Project", which
was commissioned by the Town and completed in April 2004. This study explored
the possibility of creating a town center for the town of Bladensburg, utilizing
the construction of new, expanded municipal offices as a catalyst for the
larger development.
The new sector plan establishes goals, policies and strategies to guide
the future growth of the town center in the Town of Bladensburg. The
recommended land use, zoning, and design guidelines help establish a
foundation for new real estate and economic development activity appropriate
for a regional center along the General Plan designated Developed Tier Corridor
of Annapolis Road. The recommendations promote pedestrian activity and
help ensure that development was compatible with adjacent neighborhoods. The
SMA implements the sector plan recommendations and policies by amending
the zoning map.
