The Anne Arundel County Government consists of Departments with Divisions as well as Boards & Commissions. These entities work together to serve our Citizen's needs.
With almost 54,000 businesses, Anne Arundel County is a major hub of commerce and development. With a $35 billion economy, low taxes, a vast multi-modal transportation system, highly skilled workforce and excellent educational institutions, Anne Arundel County is the premier location to do business.
Our mission is to plan the overall physical development and growth of the County, update and enforce the zoning code, and administer the subdivision and development regulations.
The Office of Planning and Zoning will be updating Anne Arundel County’s General Development Plan. Learn more about the GDP, the update process, and how you can be involved!
Residents who live on a peninsula deal with unique issues regarding traffic, public safety and infrastructure because they have one way in and one way out. We are committed to addressing these issues on the Mayo Peninsula in collaboration with citizens.
