            Click on this link to view the 2010 Annual Report of the Calvert County Planning Commission.
            
Appointed by the Board of County Commissioners, the Planning Commission serves as a citizen review board on County planning decisions.  As set forth in Article 66B, Annotated Code of Maryland, the Planning Commission is both an advisory and decision-making body.  In its advisory capacity, the Commission makes recommendations concerning the zoning of land, amendments to the ordinances, the development of public structures and services, land acquisitions, and other development and growth-related issues.  The Planning Commission creates, approves, and amends the Comprehensive Plan.  It also prepares master plans and other reports necessary to guide development or to educate the citizens of County planning decisions.
In its decision-making capacity, the Planning Commission reviews and approves the subdivision of land for residential and commercial use and plans for the future development of individual sites.  Subdivisions and site plan review constitute the bulk of the Planning Commission work during regularly scheduled meetings.
The Planning Commission holds its regular public meetings on the third Wednesday of each month at 7:00 p.m.  Meetings are devoted to review and action on site plans, subdivisions, zoning cases and discussion of general planning items.  In addition to regularly scheduled meetings, special meetings are held when necessary to discuss special planning items.
