The Montgomery County Council is expected to vote on ZTA 26-04 on March 17, 2026, a zoning text amendment broadening eligibility for the expedited review process established for mixed-income housing projects. The measure eliminates the existing square-footage requirement and adds 4% Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) developments to the list of qualifying projects. The amendment builds on a 2023 ZTA co-sponsored by Councilmembers Friedson and Sayles.
