Harford County Executive Barry Glassman and the Harford County Council have initiated the 2017 Comprehensive Zoning review. During the Comprehensive Zoning review, any property in Harford County can be rezoned provided that the new zoning classification is consistent with the Harford County Land Use Plan which was adopted earlier in 2016. Since Comprehensive Zoning only occurs approximately every eight years, this is a great opportunity to improve the zoning of your property if it qualifies for rezoning. Although the application period will run from December 12, 2016 through February 10, 2017, we recommend that you have your property reviewed as soon as possible. Many times, meetings with planners and/or neighbors prior to filing an application will help achieve success in rezoning. If you have any questions concerning the Harford County Comprehensive Zoning process, please contact Michael Leaf in our Bel Air Office at 410-938-8710.
