Montgomery Plans

Our bimonthly cable show, produced in collaboration with County Cable Montgomery, highlights the activities of the Montgomery County Planning Board and its professional planning staff. Our program looks at the important land use issues facing those who live and work in Montgomery County. Each month, we’ll highlight issues that affect you – smart growth, transportation, forest conservation, environmental protection, historic preservation and more.

In 2010, we revamped the show into 30-minute episodes featuring four segments:

  • Plans in the News: Highlighting top news from the Planning Board
  • Plans in Focus: An in-depth look at a planning topic
  • Plans Going Green: A close look at green initiatives in the county
  • Plans Around Town: Informative neighborhood walking tours with Planning Director Rollin Stanley

View each show in its entirety or click on desired segment.

Plans in the News


Plans to build a new hospital in Germantown receive Board approval; planners present the state of the highways in the biennial Mobility Assessment.

Plans in Focus


Most commercial areas in Montgomery County reflect 1950s-style suburban retailing: huge expanses of parking and underused land. The new Commercial Residential Zone will change all that.

Plans Going Green


Montgomery County boasts a significant tree canopy, although many of the county’s urbanized areas lack shade, right where it is needed most.

Plans Around Town


The close-knit community of Lyttonsville faces new challenges.
