Slight changes made to Captain's Way site plan

With construction well underway at Captain's Way along Route 16 between Milton and Ellendale, the Sussex County Planning & Zoning Commission has approved a revised final site plan.

At its Nov. 2 meeting, commissioners approved changes to the plan including the relocation of five lots due to the stormwater management plan for the community.

Captain's Way was approved by the commission in 2012. The project includes 301 lots with a mixture of stick-built and single- and double-wide manufactured homes. Amenities include a clubhouse, pool, pickleball court, playground, dog park, and a community garden with a greenhouse and potting shed.

In 2013, county officials approved a zoning change for the 154-acre parcel from AR-1, agricultural-residential, to GR, general residential, with a residential planned community overlay.
