Say no to Ocean View development Dec. 10

December 6, 2019

Sussex County Council is considering yet another development in Ocean View, at the intersection of Muddy Neck Road and Parker House Road. They are considering rezoning for three three-story apartment buildings with a total of 45 units on less than four acres, that DelDOT projects could add another 500 vehicles per day to the area.

This will significantly impact the surrounding developments and roads, which have not had any improvements to absorb this additional traffic, noise, or water drainage, nor have safety issues been addressed. One big reason our family purchased a home in this area was because it lived up to “The Quiet Resort” slogan.

Please come out to the Sussex County Council meeting in Georgetown Tuesday, Dec. 10, at 6 p.m. and voice your “no” to the council.
