Suggested Action:
recommendation
The City Council authorizes the Mayor to send correspondence to the Prince George's County Council, sitting as the District Council regarding the proposed amendment to the Prince George's County Zoning Ordinance, Section 27-4204 - Transit-Oriented/Activity Center Base Zones. The correspondence shall reflect the City of Hyattsville's positions as follows:
