CECIL COUNTY LAND USE FORUM: Is Good Development Possible?

The Cecil County Land Use Forum discusses the importance of good design in community development. Developers favor aesthetically pleasing neighborhoods that enhance quality of life. A review of Queen Anne's County from March 2002 to October 2004 highlighted that 277 lots were approved across 21 communities, primarily in agricultural zones, with density averaging 8.6 acres per lot. The forum emphasizes key design elements, such as integrating various lot sizes, focusing on streetscape, and creating publicly accessible waterfronts to foster vibrant and functional communities. Collaboration is essential to achieve these goals.
