The Prince George's County Council, sitting as the District Council, convened at 1:49 p.m. on Monday, October 5, 2026, in Committee Room 2027 of the Wayne K. Curry Administration Building in Largo, Maryland. The agenda listed a revised start time of 12:00 PM, but the minutes record the actual call to order at 1:49 p.m. Seven members were present at roll call: Chair Krystal Oriadha, Vice Chair Eric Olson, and Council Members Shayla Adams-Stafford, Thomas Dernoga, Sydney Harrison, Jolene Ivey, and Danielle Hunter. Council Members Timothy Adams, Wala Blegay, Edward Burroughs III, and Wanika Fisher were absent. The Council approved prior minutes, denied a zoning revisory petition, and voted to review a detailed site plan.

Consent Calendar

• District Council Minutes – September 29, 2026: Chair Oriadha moved, Council Member Ivey seconded, and the Council approved the minutes by a 7-0 vote. The four absent members did not vote.

Referred for Document – Revisory Petition

• REV-CR-077-2026 – Central Avenue/Blue Line–Silver Line Sectional Map Amendment (CR-077-2026): The petition concerned 8601, 8605, and 8607 Central Avenue in Capitol Heights (6.0 acres; CGO Zone, formerly IE Zone) and sought revision of Zoning Change (ZC)-61 of the approved Sectional Map Amendment based on four alleged factual errors. The case came before the District Council after Principal Counsel issued a legal opinion under Section 27-3503(b)(7)(D)(iii)-(v) of the Zoning Ordinance finding no reasonable basis to revise the SMA. Council Member Hunter moved to adopt the prepared order of denial; Vice Chair Olson seconded. The motion carried 7-0.

Planning Board Matter – Pending Finality

• DET-2024-017 – Metro Grove: The applicants—Silver Hill 9, LLC; Silver Hill 4, LLC; and Silver Hill Land Owner, LLC—seek approval of a detailed site plan for 250 multifamily residential dwelling units in three buildings on 7.21 acres in the southwest quadrant of MD 458 (Silver Hill Road) and Suitland Parkway, in Council District 7.
