Boyds Master Plan
Approved and Adopted February 1985
The Rustic Roads Functional Master Plan amended the plan in 2004. See the MARC Rail Communities Plan for an update to the area near the train station.
“Somewhat isolated from the urban metropolis of “down-County” and the District of Columbia, its residents highly value its serenity and seek to protect it from urban encroachment. …It is the intent of this Plan to address those needs which are critical to rural areas in a manner which is sensitive to the community and not simply an attempt to adapt urban concepts to a rural scale.”
