Adoption of Anne Arundel County Region 5 Plan – Potential for Consulting, Planning, and Implementation Contracts

A recent meeting document Anne Arundel County - Preliminary Agenda - 2026-05-18 indicates a future potential acquisition The County Council is considering BILL NO. 17-26 (As Amended), an ordinance to adopt the 'Anne Arundel County Region 5 Plan' as part of the county’s General Development Plan (Plan2040). The Region 5 Plan covers Odenton, Piney Orchard, Gambrills, Woodwardville, Crofton, and Two Rivers, and includes visions, themes, goals, policies, planned land use maps, and implementation strategies for the area. The adoption of this plan typically precedes a series of consulting, planning, and implementation contracts related to land use, infrastructure, transportation, environmental studies, and community engagement. The plan’s implementation strategies may require outside vendors for studies, public outreach, engineering, and project management. This type of regional plan often leads to RFPs for consulting services, technology solutions for planning and mapping, and potentially construction or capital improvement projects as the plan is executed.
