Sec. 59-H-6.4. Conditional approval not permitted.
No application for a local map amendment shall be approved conditionally for the erection on the land of a structure at a particular location, or within a particular time, or by a particular person, or of a particular type, or for the subdivision of the land in a particular manner or on any other condition.
   Editor's note-In Montgomery County v. National Capital Reality Corp., 267 Md. 364, 297 A.2d 671 (1972), it was held that placement of covenants in a site plan which are effective only if the rezoning is granted constitutes conditional zoning.  In Town of Somerset v. County Council for Montgomery County, 229 Md. 42, 181 A.2d 671 (1962), it was held that the existence of a collateral annexation agreement does not constitute conditional zoning (which is prohibited).  The above section is quoted in Wheaton Moose Lodge No. 1775 v. Montgomery County, 41 Md.App. 401, 397 A.2d 250 (1979)
