1Opinion of the Court

EYLER, Judge.

The primary issue presented by this case is whether a St. Mary’s County ordinance amending the County’s subdivision regulations and zoning ordinance conflicts with State law or is otherwise invalid. We hold that the Ordinance does conflict with State law, and thus, is invalid. Consequently, we affirm that portion of the judgment that declares the statute to be invalid. For reasons stated below, however, we vacate the portion of the judgment that issues a writ of mandamus.
