Redevelopment Authority outlines $20.5M CIP and multiple shovel‑ready projects

Planning, Housing, and Economic Development Committee (PHED) · April 6, 2026

Summary

The Redevelopment Authority told PHED it plans a FY27 CIP of about $20.5 million across seven projects and an operating budget supported largely by state funding. RDA described project timelines for Town Square Suitland, Edison Park, Aviation Landing, and the Chevrolet Hospital campus, and flagged maintenance and staffing costs tied to property management.

The Redevelopment Authority gave PHED an overview of its FY27 budget and capital program. Executive Director Perry Paylor said the authority proposes a CIP of $20,500,000 for seven projects and an operating surplus budget of roughly $2.6 million; RDA reported that 65.8% of authority funding for FY27 is expected from state sources, with the remainder from land sales, county contributions, and other instruments.

RDA project managers described multiple initiatives at various stages: Town Square Suitland (a 32‑acre, mixed‑use site near Suitland Metro with about 500 units and retail), Glen Arden Hills (97 townhomes with about 20 units targeted for deeper affordability), 210 on the Park (158 multifamily units, shovel-ready pending financing), Edison Park (senior units and townhomes, closing this month), Aviation Landing (multi-phase project adjacent to College Park Metro with stormwater/floodplain issues under review), and the Chevrolet Hospital campus (demolition complete; phased redevelopment anticipated). Paylor warned of a gap between project demand and available funding and staff capacity and said the authority is working to sustain grant and property-improvement programs.
