Description
John D. Hedin, the appellant, submitted to the Board of County Commissioners of Prince George's County a petition for the rezoning of a tract of about 4 3/4 acres of land owned by him from a classification of "R-55", which is for single family detached dwellings, to a classification of "R-18", which is for low density apartment use. The Board of County Commissioners (hereinafter usually referred to as the "Board") was acting in this matter in its capacity as the District Council for that portion of the Maryland-Washington Regional District which lies in Prince George's County. (See Code (1951), Article 66B, Section 35; Code of Public Local Laws of Prince George's County (1953), Section 1117; Acts of 1953, Chapter 622, Section 2.) The Board denied the petition for reclassification of the property, and the appellant filed a bill of complaint against the Board seeking relief in equity on the ground that the action of the Board was unreasonable, capricious and arbitrary. The Circuit Court for Prince George's County sustained the Board's demurrer, without leave to the complainant to amend his bill. The appeal is from that order.
