Prince George's County council waives review of Old Branch Avenue site plan in unanimous vote
Summary
The Prince George's County District Council voted unanimously to waive its review of CSP 8808, a conceptual site plan for about 45–55 attached single-family units on 5.78 acres along Old Branch Avenue; the waiver clears the project to proceed under previously imposed planning conditions.
Prince George's County District Council members voted unanimously to waive the council's review of a conceptual site plan identified as CSP 8808, clearing the way for planning approvals to proceed under conditions set by staff and the planning board.
A staff summary in the meeting record described the proposal as located on the east side of Old Branch Avenue, roughly 1,150 feet north of Woodyard Road, on 5.78 acres. The plan calls for approximately 45 to 55 single-family attached residential units with associated infrastructure improvements alongside existing office buildings totaling 6,336 square feet. The staff record notes the park and planning technical staff and the planning board approved the plan with conditions.
Councilmember Harrison moved to waive the council's option to review the matter; Councilmember Fisher seconded. "I like to waive the council's election to review on this matter," Harrison said before the roll-call vote. The clerk called each member and announced "Motion carries 11 0," indicating unanimous support.
The waiver does not itself approve the site plan on the council floor; it removes the council's separate review step so the project may proceed under the planning board and staff conditions already recorded. The meeting record lists an appeal-by date and a review-by date of Nov. 21, 2025, and notes a planning-board action on Oct. 16, 2025.
