LWV Sussex to present forum on citizen participation in land use planning March 11

As the issues of land use and growth rapidly increase for citizens of Sussex County, the League of Women Voters, Sussex County, is sponsoring a free public forum on these issues, “Enhancing Citizen Engagement in the Participatory Planning Process.”

The forum will be held Tuesday, March 11, from 1 to 3 p.m., in the conference room of the Beebe Medical Arts Building on John Williams Highway, Rehoboth.

The speaker will be Ed Lewandowski, coastal communities specialist for the University of Delaware’s Sustainable Seacoast Community Initiative. In this role, he is responsible for helping communities define their own regional plans - whether to grow, how to grow, how much to grow. Following the presentation, Lewandowski will be available to answer questions
