Gaithersburg’s Annual Planning Report

Gaithersburg submitted the 2012 Annual Planning Report to the Maryland Planning Department on July 3. The report prepared by the Gaithersburg Planning Commission includes the period from January 1 through December 31, 2012. The Planning Report includes an introduction and overview, a summary of growth related changes, and a review of select city initiatives. Highlighted are economic development, historic preservation, long range planning and transportation, environmental services, community development, permitting, and policies and procedures.

A Historic Designations map indicates properties designated historic in the Kentlands area. A Transportation map indicates streets built in 2012 as well as proposed projects including the Corridor Cities Transitway and the Bus Rapid Transitway corridor. A Building Permits map plots commercial and residential building permits issued throughout the community, and an Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance Map identifies those schools that will exceed 110% capacity within two years.
