The Montgomery County Planning Board has approved a plan to allow multi-family home zoning changes. This initiative aims to loosen single-family zoning restrictions, enabling property owners to replace single-family homes with duplexes, triplexes, and, in some areas, quadplexes. The decision seeks to increase housing opportunities in the county, which is currently dominated by single-family homes. Most of the developed residential land in Montgomery County is zoned for and occupied by single-family homes. The board's unanimous recommendation marks a significant shift in the county's residential zoning policies.
