Public Input Meeting

The Department of Planning & Zoning held a public meeting at the Grace Brethren Church at 9870 Old Solomons Island Road on Monday, Oct. 20, 2025. Thank you to everyone who came to the meeting and provided feedback. We appreciate your involvement and will take all feedback into consideration.

In November and December 2025, P&Z will provide feedback to, and seek guidance from, the Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners on next steps. In early 2026, P&Z plans to hold another public meeting to discuss the next steps on the town center master plan update process.

Survey Results

The Department of Planning & Zoning made an online survey available to the public from July 23 to Aug. 25, 2025, for the Owings Town Center. The purpose of the survey was to gather public feedback on the vision for the town center in preparation for its master plan update. The survey is the initial step in updating the town center master plan. The process involves several meetings with the public, Calvert County departments and the Planning Commission before seeking adoption from the Board of County Commissioners.
