Timing of the White Flint Plan

Last night’s Steering Committee meeting revealed more details about the expected timing of the White Flint Sector Plan development process. Piera Weiss, speaking for the Board, said the goal was to submit a draft plan to the Montgomery County Council in the spring, probably April or May. Since “it takes a month to produce a copy of a full draft plan,” Piera noted, that means that the Planning Board needs to complete its work by the end of March.

That’s an ambitious timetable, especially since the Board members “also have other jobs,” but the Board seems committed to it. Three Board worksessions are scheduled for February alone (see separate post). More will be scheduled for March.
