Rehoboth planning approves Clear Space project
For a second time, the Rehoboth Beach Planning Commission has approved the site plan for Clear Space Theatre Company’s Rehoboth Avenue project.
The Feb. 26 vote passed by a 5-3 margin. Commissioners Jeff Trunzo, Lee Weber, Barry Covington, Michael Bryan and Stephen Kaufman voted in favor. Commissioners Brian Patterson, Joyce Lussier and Michael Strange voted against. Commissioner Rachel Macha recused herself.
Currently located on Baltimore Avenue, Clear Space has proposed a new venue at 413, 415 and 417 Rehoboth Ave. The project includes two buildings – a 14,968-square-foot, 256-seat traditional theater and a 9,979-square-foot rehearsal theater.
