Public Invited to Meeting on Montgomery Village Master Plan

Montgomery Village is undergoing some big changes and on Wednesday the public has another opportunity to weigh in on them.

The Montgomery County Planning Department, part of The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, invites business owners and residents to discuss the Montgomery Village Master Plan at a meeting on March 25 from 7-9 p.m. at the Watkins Mill High School cafeteria (10301 Apple Ridge Road, Gaithersburg, MD).

Planning Department staff will recap the Master Plan process so far and provide additional details of the Draft Montgomery Village Overlay Zone. Staff will provide an overview of the Draft Overlay Zone’s purpose, proposed land uses and potential development standards.

Staff is scheduled to provide a status briefing to the Planning Board on the Montgomery Village Master Plan on April 16. The next steps in the Master Plan process include transportation modeling and drafting of preliminary recommendations for the Staff Draft of the Plan, which is scheduled to be presented to the Planning Board in June. Planning staff will schedule another community meeting when the results of the transportation modeling are available.
