Prince George's Cty. v. Concerned Citizens

Summary

The court held that the county's zoning text amendment did not violate the statutory uniformity requirement, even though the amendment was narrowly drafted and likely benefited only one airport property. The amendment served valid public purposes, including encouraging closure of a dangerous nonconforming airport, and the challengers did not show that it treated similarly situated properties differently without a reasonable basis. The court reversed the Appellate Court and affirmed the District Council's decision.
