In order to coordinate the review of a project plan with County planning and zoning procedures, the Planning Board may defer action on a proposed project plan application, that has been determined to be complete, if all or any part of the plan lies within the boundaries of and conflicts with the proposals of a pending plan or plan amendment. For purposes of this section a pending plan or plan amendment is a preliminary draft or final draft of a master plan or sector plan or master plan or sector plan amendment as prepared by The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission in accordance with the work program approved by the District Council and the provisions of Chapter 33-A of the County code.
A proposed project plan deferred under this section must be resubmitted to the Planning Board either:
(a) following the final disposition by the District Council of the pending plan or the plan amendment; or
(b) no later than 12 months from the completion date of the preliminary draft plan or preliminary draft plan amendment, unless there is a determination by the Planning Board that the project plan presents a substantial conflict with the proposed land use objectives of the draft plan or draft plan amendment, in which case a project plan may be deferred at the option of the Planning Board for a maximum period of 18 months from the completion date of the preliminary draft plan or preliminary draft plan amendment, but in no event beyond the period provided in (a) above.
