The Prince George’s County Planning Department of The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC) will host a community meeting on Thursday, December 7, 2023, at 6:30 p.m. at the Beltsville Community Center, 3900 Sellman Road, Beltsville, Maryland to present findings on the U.S. Route 1 Land Redevelopment Study. Planning staff will brief residents and area stakeholders on ways to improve the study area along the Route 1 Corridor boundary from Quimby Avenue to Sunnyside Avenue, adjacent to the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center and the immediate surrounding neighborhoods. Event attendees will hear ways to make the area a thriving place to live and work, strengthen connections to places along the corridor, welcome new businesses and residents, and support the character of existing businesses and residents. The study recommendations are guided by feedback from community members through various means of participation including interviews, an online survey, in-person and virtual meetings, and a community workshop.
Interested participants should register for the workshop in advance. To access the link to the online registration form and additional details on the study (in English and Spanish), individuals may visit the Prince George’s County Planning Department’s website: https://pgplan.org/Rte1LRStudy.
