ORIGIN & FUNCTIONS


DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING & ZONING

Matters relating to planning and zoning are governed by both State and County laws. The Maryland Forest Conservation Act, for example, requires all county governments to adopt local forest conservation programs (Chapter 255, Acts of 1991; Code Natural Resources Article, secs. 5-1601 through 5-1613).

In Harford County, the Department of Planning and Zoning oversees two divisions: Comprehensive Planning, and Current Planning (Code Local Government Article, sec. 10-324; County Charter, secs. 405, 701-709).
