Prince George’s County Council (sitting as the District Council) met on Nov. 24, 2025, adopted its Nov. 18 minutes and approved motions to waive the council’s right to review three separate development plans, according to the meeting record.

The council began by adopting the district council minutes dated Nov. 18, 2025. Council member Hawkins moved to adopt the minutes and council member Fisher seconded; the clerk recorded the roll‑call vote as carried, 8–0.

The meeting then moved to land‑use items. Staff presented detailed site plan DET 2024005, “Covington Oaks,” from Connington Place LLC, a 2.35‑acre RMF‑20 proposal in Council District 4 for 48 family dwelling units with associated infrastructure and amenities. Council member Watson moved to waive the council’s right to review; the motion was seconded and recorded as carried by roll call. The transcript records an appeal deadline of Dec. 22, 2025, and a review‑by date shown in the record as 01/20/2026. Technical staff and the planning board had recommended approval with conditions.

Next, the council considered DT 202420, identified in the record as the Penn Place application (Penn Place Owner LLC). The proposal covers 4.91 acres at Penn Crossing Drive and Marlboro Pike in an RMF‑20 zone and proposes 54 multifamily residential units in seven buildings plus an amenity building in Council District 7. A motion to waive the council’s review was made and seconded; the clerk recorded roll‑call responses and stated “Motion carries 8 0.” Appeal and review‑by dates are recorded as Dec. 22, 2025 and Jan. 20, 2026, respectively. Technical staff and the planning board had approved the plan with conditions before the council action.

The council then took up SDP 2402, Woodside Reserve East (American Homes and Maryland, Inc.), a phase‑2 specific design plan for the larger Woodside Reserve development. The item covers 53.36 acres in Council District 6 and proposes 260 single‑family detached homes; the record notes that phase‑1 included 233 single‑family detached homes and 117 single‑family attached homes approved by the planning board in 2024. A motion to waive the council’s review was moved, seconded and recorded as carried. The transcript records technical staff and planning board approvals with conditions; the appeal deadline is listed as Dec. 22, 2025, with a review‑by date of Jan. 20, 2026.

All council actions on the three plans were recorded in the meeting transcript as votes to waive the council’s review; the clerk recorded the outcomes as carried (the roll call statements in the transcript show the clerk announcing "Motion carries 8 0" for each waiver). The meeting closed after a motion to adjourn was made and seconded.

What the record shows and what it does not

The transcript documents the projects’ acreage, proposed unit counts, zoning (RMF‑20 for the multifamily items) and that technical staff and the planning board recommended approval with conditions. The record indicates appeal and review deadlines. The meeting transcript records the roll‑call statements and the clerk’s announcement that each motion carried, 8–0. The transcript contains some inconsistent name spellings in roll‑call exchanges; this article uses only names and titles as clearly given in the record and relies on the clerk’s recorded roll‑call outcomes rather than reconstructing an individual vote tally where the spoken roll call lines are inconsistent.

Next steps

Appeal deadlines for the recorded items are listed in the transcript as Dec. 22, 2025; the council’s review‑by dates are recorded as Jan. 20, 2026. Additional administrative follow‑up on conditions and any appeals will be reflected in future planning‑board or council records.
