Permits & Approvals in Upper Marlboro

Prince George's County DPIE

Upper Marlboro is the county seat of Prince George's County and home to the DPIE offices at 9400 Peppercorn Place — permits are filed and reviewed locally, often resulting in faster turnaround than other parts of the county. Larger lots in rural and semi-rural zones may require additional agricultural zoning review for new structures.

• The DPIE permit office is located in Upper Marlboro, which often means faster in-person follow-up on permit status.
• Rural and agricultural zone properties may require additional land-use review for new structures.
• Marlboro Ridge and Beechtree are HOA communities with their own architectural review for exterior changes.
• We maintain strong working relationships with PG County inspectors from decades of local projects.
