Calvert County Zoning Ordinance: Key Points for Local Development

For businesses and developers in Calvert County, the Zoning Ordinance outlines essential rules that impact land use, building standards, and environmental protections. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Permitted Uses: Each zoning district has specific permitted uses—check if your business type or development plan aligns with your property’s zoning designation.
  • Building Standards: Height limits, lot sizes, and density requirements vary by district, which can affect the scale and layout of your project.
  • Environmental Protections: Developments near natural resources like wetlands and forests face stricter regulations to preserve Calvert County’s environmental health.
  • Flexibility Options: Variances and special exceptions are available for unique projects that need flexibility beyond standard zoning rules.

These regulations ensure that growth in Calvert County remains balanced and sustainable. For full details, view the Calvert County Zoning Ordinance.
