Prince George's County Councilwoman Deni Taveras has proposed a resolution to ask M-NCPPC to start a minor amendment process to include urban farming as a permitted use in Gateway Arts District DDO Traditional Residential Neighborhood character area. As Mayor of Mount Rainier Maryland, I totally support this effort, and encourage the passing of Council member Taveras' legislation.

The talented & courageous professionals that grow food near those who eat it, not to mention the food itself, enrich our community. Doug is a leader, and many will be inspired by his example.

Doug Adams is one of the shining examples of someone who grew up in Mount Rainier, and decided to become an entrepreneur in Mount Rainier, MD. This project is supported by the community, and will help support our local economy.

As Sustainability Coordinator for a local jurisdiction I believe this farm is an amazing resource for the community. I fully support their request for zoning and permitting rule changes to allow the building of this structure to help them grow this amazing project.

There are so many reasons why it is smart for food to be grown in urban areas, it is not possible to list them all. Updating zoning law to allow for Urban farms is a necessary improvement for our county.

This new building will be extremely beneficial to our community. Our zoning laws should help our downtown area thrive with good, sustainable development.
