As part of the Bill and as a requirement of Article 17-5-504 of the Anne Arundel County Code, the Office of Planning and Zoning is to annually prepare a report on development activity that impacts public school facilities. On December 21, 2007, Bill No. 90-07 amended Bill No. 43-03, requiring the Planning and Zoning Officer to develop the School Utilization Chart and eliminating the requirement that the Chart be approved by the Board of Education. On May 21, 2018, Bill No. 15-18 was adopted, requiring the school utilization chart process be updated to include data regarding open seats based on the proposed reductions in available school capacity due to new proposed developments. This is the thirteenth annual report since Bill No 43-03 went into effect. This report evaluates the subdivision and building permit activity between November 9, 2018 and November 8, 2019.
