Council adopts zoning approval for Stewart retirement community in District 4
Summary
The District Council adopted a zoning ordinance of approval with conditions for the Stewart Property special-exception application to develop a 57‑unit, age‑restricted retirement community on about 12.01 acres; the motion passed 8-0.
On Nov. 17 the Prince George's County District Council adopted a prepared zoning ordinance of approval with conditions for the Stewart Property special‑exception application (approx. 12.01 acres, 8215 Springfield Road) to allow a retirement community of 57 age‑restricted single‑family dwellings and a variance for removal of forest investment trees. Council member Watson moved to adopt the ordinance and Council member Ivy seconded; the motion passed on a recorded roll-call vote, 8-0.
The application is located in Council District 4. The meeting record lists opponents Howard Aldat and Charles Holman; the zoning hearing examiner had previously approved the project with conditions. The council’s recorded action at this session was adoption of the prepared ordinance with conditions; the transcript does not show additional amendments or changes to the examiner’s recommended conditions.
Next steps include implementation steps required by the ordinance conditions and any administrative follow-up specified by planning staff. Appeal and post-adoption procedures were referenced in meeting materials but specific appeal actions were not recorded in the transcript.
